On PS side, the following peripherals and devices are connected to MIO signals:
* Serial NOR fl ash (MIO [6:1])
* NAND fl ash (MIO [0], [14:2])
* UART1 (MIO [49:48])
* I2C temperature sensor (MIO [47:46])
* I2C MEMS RTC (MIO [47:46])
* Gigabit Ethernet PHY (MIO [27:16])
* USBOTG PHY (MIO [39:28])
* SD/MMC (MIO [45:40])
 
Since these devices are considered essential, they have been connected to MIO signals in order to make them always functional, even if PL is not programmed.
These peripherals represent the default configuration for the BORA SOM, but other configurations can be implemented changing the pin multiplexing

| '''Size max'''||16 MB - This limitation is due to this [https://support.xilinx.com/s/article/57744?language=en_US Errata from Xilinx]. The proposed solution by Xilinx has not been approved by DAVE Embedded Systems

=== Power supply unit ===
Bora, as the other Ultra Line CPU modules, embeds all the elements required for powering the unit, therefore power sequencing is self-contained and simplified. Nevertheless, power must be provided from carrier board, and therefore users should be aware of the ranges power supply can assume as well as all other parameters. For detailed information, please refer to [[Power_BORA_SOM/BORA_Hardware/Power_and_Reset/Power_Supply_Unit_(BoraPSU)_and_recommended_power-up_sequence | Power Supply Unit]]page.
=== CPU module connectors ===
All interface signals Bora provides are routed through three 140 pin 0.6mm pitch stacking connectors (named J1, J2 and J3). The dedicated carrier board must mount the mating connectors and connect the desired peripheral interfaces according to Bora pinout specifications.
