Is connecting USB slicekit to regular coreboard possible?

Technical discussions related to any XMOS development kit or reference design. Eg XK-1A, sliceKIT, etc.

Is connecting USB slicekit to regular coreboard possible?

Post by pstnotpd »

I was looking at the newly announced USB slicekit on the XMOS site.

On the picture I don't see any PCI like connector anywhere. As that's the way to chain coreboards I wonder how (or if?) a USB board will connect to a normal coreboard.

Any more info?

Edit: I suppose the coreboard a a slave to the USB board is a possibility...

The USB core board can only be used as the start of the chain by connecting an L16 core board to the square slice, hence the lack of a chain connector.
