Microsoft X900563-001 board RE notes
**WIP**
Overview
Main features
- Intel Stratix V GS (DSP-optimized), p/n 5SGSKF40I3LNAC (*see note 1)
- 2x QSFP 40G cages
- 9x Skhynix H5TC4G83BFR 8-bit 4Gb DDR3L, 72-bit bus (64 bit + ECC), 512MB in total (?)
- 2x PCIe Gen3 8x, routed to the Samtec connector
- FT232HL (purpose is unknown atm, it can be used for UART/JTAG/I2C/…)
- 25Q256A SPI Flash
- 8 + 1 user LED
- 125M oscillator
- IDT8N4Q001 programmable oscillator
Note 1: It’s supposed to be 5SGSD5, but aforementioned p/n is not following Intel part numbering scheme for Stratix V (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/programmable/documentation/sam1403476018909.html#sam1403476002556)
