Ich habe kürzlich eine interessante Seite über Online Casinos entdeckt und wollte sie hier mit euch teilen zet casinos

Die Website bietet eine gute Übersicht über verschiedene Online Casinos, Bonusangebote und aktuelle Trends im Bereich Glücksspiel. Besonders hilfreich fand ich die Vergleiche und Informationen für Spieler in Deutschland.

Hat jemand von euch diese Seite schon ausprobiert?
Ich würde gerne eure Meinungen und Erfahrungen hören!

Hello Chris,

some of the nets in the schematic of the PCB REV03 have been changed. You can see the following document  for the PCB REV02 at the link below:

https://www.trenz-electronic.de/trenzdownloads/Trenz_Electronic/Modules_and_Module_Carriers/6.5x9/TE0835/REV03/Firmware/Archive/SC-PGM-TE0835-0102_SC835-01_-v.29-01_20_2025.pdf

The "*" symbol indicates that the LED is on, and "o" indicates that the LED is off. I have also written the name of the nets of the PCB REV02 as old names in the current TE0835 CPLD document. Please take a look at the document at the following link:

Trenz Electronic FPGA Modules / TE0835-REV02 Power Sequencing
Last post by chris_ftl - March 24, 2026, 08:19:26 PM
Hello,

We are trying to bringup a previously not working TE0835-REV02 SOM. This was retired due to a component being knocked off. This was repaired, however the unit will not complete powerup. The status LED blinks twice (IE is on twice). According to this: https://wiki.trenz-electronic.de/display/PD/TE0835+Getting+Started , there is a problem in stage 1, however I am unable to match this documentation to actual nets in the schematic.

Q1: the blink code is fairly inscrutable. Is a * or a "o" the LED on? Does the LED blinking twice actually correspond to stage 1?
Q2: Is there a document that maps these nets to actual schematic nets? Especially the supply enable lines, such as EN_GR1 or EN_PS_PL. These do not match which makes it difficult to find the supply that is amiss.

Thank you,
Chris

Hello,

As we previously mentioned, this design is intended for product testing. So, the I2C operation is actually not necessary for SFP communication. In this design, I2C is used to read/write the EEPROM inside a 10G SFP+ Passive Loopback Testing Module in order to check the contact of the SFP0/1_SCL and SFP0/1_SDA pins.

I have highlighted the relevant IP cores for actual SFP data transmission in the attached image. Please review their connections and settings, and refer to Intel Document 683054 (Intel® Cyclone® 10 GX Transceiver PHY User Guide) for more information.

Regarding NIOS:

In this design, axi_prbs_gtx generates a data sequence. Data is sent to the loopback module via SFP, returned to the transceiver, and sent back to axi_prbs_gtx for comparison. NIOS only controls the start timing of the sequence and reads the comparison results. You can replace the NIOS control with your own pure FPGA logic as preferred

Hello Fernando,

please ensure that the DIP switch S4.3 is set to "ON"; if it is set to "OFF", this is exactly the behaviour you are experiencing.

Trenz Electronic FPGA Modules / SFP modules I2C design example
Last post by guirenaud - March 16, 2026, 04:18:00 PM
Hello

We are using the TEIB0006 carrier with the TEI0006 SOM module and start writing HDL code.
In the example design you provided, the implementation of the SFP modules over I2C (over I2C Mux and I2C extender) is done with the Nios core. We'll not use the Nios core in our design.
Is there any other design example you can provide implenting those directly in the FPGA Logic layer ?

Thanks for your help

Hello,

I am working with TE0808 on dev board TEBF0818.

I am trying to access and program the Lattice CPLDs on the TEBF0818 development board. I followed steps 1 to 6 in the CPLD Access section of the following guide: https://wiki.trenz-electronic.de/display/PD/TEBF0818+CPLD+Firmware

However, the Diamond Programmer did not found any device and created a default blank project.

Do you have any idea what might be causing this issue or how it could be resolved?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Fernando

I did in fact use the prebuilt design (TE0865-test_board-vivado_2023.2-build_4_20241126093016.zip)
- boot.bin from prebuilt/boot_images/17eg_2e_8gb_256MB/u-boot
- boot.scr from prebuilt/os/petalinux/8GB
- image.ub from prebuilt/os/petalinux/8GB

I simply uploaded
- boot.bin to offset 0x00000000
- image.ub to offset 0x03000000
- boot.scr to offset 0x04040000

Using the same files on a sd card works fine.

Thank you so much for your help, with this I can try and adapt it.

Best regards!
