Solar Express 215 (SE215)

Development PCIe carrier board for SOM3

SE215 is a development board for Sundance SOM3 . It is a PCIe X1 Gen2 carrier card with one site for an SOM3. It offers USB JTAG and UART, through a micro USB connector, Display port and comes with a version of Display port IP core for SOM3 from Bitec DSP. The card provides Power GOOD and user LEDs for rapid debugging. A Low Pin Count (LPC) FMC site is also available. The board has external 12V power input connector so it can be used as an embedded / desk top solution.

Via jumper selection it can be used as RootComplex in a PCIe passive carrier.
