Introduction[edit | edit source]

Axel Lite requires a dedicated adapter to be plugged to the AxelEVB-Lite carrier board. This adapter:

  • provides the SODIMM socket for the AxelLite SOM
  • provides the following additional features:
    • microSD slot (for SD boot)
    • JTAG connector
    • dip-switch for boot mode selection
  • routes the signals from the AxelLite pins to the AxelEVB-Lite mating connectors

The following images show the top and bottom views of the AxelEVB-Lite-Adapter:

Connectors' pinout[edit | edit source]

J6 - SODIMM connector[edit | edit source]

J6 is a TE Connectivity 204-pin SODIMM socket. The pinout matches the Axel Lite pinout.

J1, J2, J3 - AxelEVB-Lite mating connectors[edit | edit source]

J1, J2 and J3 are Hirose FX8C-140S-SV connectors that match the AxelEVB-Lite SOM connectors' pinout.

J4 - JTAG[edit | edit source]

J4 is a SAMTEC FSI-110-03-G-S connector. The following table reports the connector's pinout:
