# Taxi Example Design for NT20E3/NT40E3
## Introduction
This example design targets the Napatech NT20E3/NT40E3 FPGA board.
The design places looped-back MACs on the SFP+ cages.
* SFP+ cages
* Looped-back 10GBASE-R MACs via GTH transceivers
## Board details
* FPGA: XC7VX330T-2FFG1157
## Licensing
* Toolchain
* Vivado Enterprise (requires license)
* IP
* No licensed vendor IP or 3rd party IP
## How to build
Run `make` in the appropriate `fpga*` subdirectory to build the bitstream. Ensure that the Xilinx Vivado toolchain components are in PATH.
## How to test
Run `make program` to program the board with Vivado.
To test the looped-back MAC, it is recommended to use a network tester like the Viavi T-BERD 5800 that supports basic layer 2 tests with a loopback. Do not connect the looped-back MAC to a network as the reflected packets may cause problems.
## JTAG pinout
Napatech boards use a non-standard connector for JTAG. There are three debug connectors, and one of them carries the JTAG signals for the FPGA.
J18 J24
FPGA AVR
TDI 7 8 GND TDI 7 8 GND
TMS 5 6 HALT TMS 5 6
TDO 3 4 Vref TDO 3 4 Vref
TCK 1 2 GND TCK 1 2 GND
J20
GND 2 1
4 3
6 5
Note: J18.6 HALT must be driven low to access the JTAG chain. So, either tie to to ground, or connect it to the HALT signal on DLC9/DLC10 cables.
