1. FPGA Hardware and Additional apparatuses
   • FPGA Hardware
     • Prerequisites
       Target devices : Virtex-7 VC707 Evaluation Platform (xc7vx485tffg1761-2)
       Tool Version : Xilinx Vivado 2015.4 or later tools
       If you are using Kintex-7 KC705 Evaluation Platform, you need to change the SiTCP module in the firmware to XC7KSiTCPlib32k.
       
       
   • FEI4B Single Chip Card
     • Manual FE-I4B_V2.0.pdf -
     • Appearance
       
       
       
       
   • RJ45/FMC - SLVS/LVDS Conversion Board
     • TB-FMCL-PH board (inrevium TOKYO ELECTRON DEVICE)
       - used for conversion between Samtec FMC connector (Low-Pin Count) and 2.54mm pitch pin header.
     • SLVS <-> LVDS level shiter designed by Ryo Nagai: LVDS2SLVS_Pins.zip
       
       
   • Hardware setup
     • Example recipe
       • Power supply for SEABAS2
         • VDDA: +1.5 V, current limit 0.7 A
         • VDDD: +1.5 V, current limit 0.4 A (Not : 1.2 V!!)
       • Ethernet cable x2 (To use 1000BASE-T, use a Cat 5 cable or later. One between a conversion board and a SCC should be metal shielded to match GNDs.)
       • SourceMeter for the silicon sensor
         
         
2. DAQ Software
   
   
   • SEABAS DAQ for ATLAS Pixel Upgrade
     • source : trunk/multi_chip_FEI4/Software_SEABAS2
     • SiTCP IP Address : Default (192.168.10.16)
       
       
   • How to config FEI4
     • For example, execute on your terminal run 1 0111 which is a command to do "Digital Injection and mask chip_1 to chip3."
       Please refer to SEABAS2 DAQ Usages.
       
       
3. Release
   
   
   • Firmware for VC707 to readout FE-I4B SCC - 2017.08.10 (Sawada.Y)
