Applying Power to the Development Kit

[markm_1915]

I want to operate the Stratix® 10 MX FPGA as a PCIe* system inserting the card into an available PCIe* slot. Still a power supply of the desktop is insufficient to power the card. Can we connect an external power supply to J11 while the card is inserted into  PCIe* slot?

Literally says this right in the user guide: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/docs/programmable/683867/current/applying-power-to-the-development-kit.html

Thanks for the pointer. It says to power the card from the system, i.e. the desktop power supply. Still can I power the card by external 240V power supply?

Like it says, you always need to have the external supply connected, whether as a PCIe card or bench top.

Hello,

As per user 'sstrell' mentioned on the previous comment. It can be accepted. You will need an external power supply for this device.
