This document describes how to run a basic video transmission demonstration with the
Lattice SensorExtender Card (SEC) set. This demonstration requires an HDR-60 base
board and a 9MT024 Nanovesta sensor board, which are available separately from
Lattice. A 720p (or higher) compatible monitor will be required for output display.
The SEC set consists of two boards; a Transmit board labeled “Tx” and a Receive
board labeled “Rx”. The 9MT024 Nanovesta sensor board should be connected to the
Tx board. During the demonstration, this board will transmit video data over a CAT5E
cable to the Rx board, which is connected to the HDR-60 board.
More details are in the SEC user guide, available at www.latticesemi.com/

QuickSTART Guide
• Storage and Handling Tips:
Static electricity can shorten the lifespan of electronic components. Please observe
these tips to prevent any damage that could occur from electro-static discharge:
• Use anti-static precautions such as operating on an anti-static mat and wearing
an anti-static wristband.
• Store the SEC in the ESD bag.
• Touch the metal USB housing to equalize voltage potential between you and the
board.

Putting the SEC together with the HDR-60 &
Nanovesta sensor board
a. Connect SEC RX board to HDR60 via Hirose connector. Ensure
Ethernet connectors are on the
bottom.
c. Connect M024 Nanovesta board
to TX board via Hirose connector.
Ensure Ethernet connectors are on
the bottom.
e. Ensure proper jumper settings
• No jumpers on HDR-60 Board
• No jumpers on SensorExtender RX or TX boards
• Two Jumpers on 9MT024 Nanovesta Board
1. J3 – pins 1&2
2. J2 – pins 1&2
b. Connect Ethernet cable to RX port
of the RX board
d. Connect Ethernet Cable to TX port
of TX board
f. Complete Setup:

LatticeECP3 Bitstream Programming:
1. The LatticeECP3 FPGA on the HDR-60 base board must be programmed with
the SEC demo bitstream. This file is called
SEC_demo_ECP3.bit available at www.
latticesemi.com/sensorextender.
USB (upper)
12V
2. Plug one end of the USB cable to the computer
HDMI
and the other to the upper USB port on the
HDR-60. Program the LatticeECP3 FGPA
with the SEC_demo_ECP3.bit file, using the
Diamond Programmer software, available at
www.latticesemi.com/latticediamond/downloads
3. Use Lattice Diamond Programmer software to
program the SPI Flash device on the HDR60 base board, which in-turn will program
the ECP3 FPGA. Diamond Programmer
is available at: www.latticesemi.com/
latticediamond/downloads
Use the following parameters in the
programming software dialog box.
Access Mode: SPI Flash Background
Programming
Operation: SPI Flash Erase, Program,
Verify
Programming File: Choose programming
file
Family: SPI Serial Flash
Vendor: STMicro or Numonyx
Device: SPI-M25P64
Package: 16-lead SOIC
Data File Size: Click “Load Size from
Programming File” button
Click OK, then GO to program the LatticeECP3 SPI Flash. Ensure that the SPI Flash is successfully programmed
Running the SEC Demo
1. Remove USB cable from the HDR-60 base board. Attach an HDMI cable from
the HDR-60 board to a 720p or higher compatible monitor. Recycle power by
disconnecting and reconnecting 12V DC supply on the HDR-60 base board.
2. The SEC Tx and Rx boards will each have two lit LEDs. One will be lit constantly
and the other will be flashing.
3. A 1280x720p60 image should display on the compatible monitor.

Other SEC Features
• The SEC board also has the Texas Instruments ISP flex connector populated at
location J9. One could connect the SEC Rx board to a TI ISP camera via a flex
cable. Visit www.leopardimaging.com for details on available TI cameras.
