power supply

A large capacitor like the 2200 uF act as a "reservoir" to store energy from the rough DC out of the bridge rectifier. The larger the capacitor the less ripple and the more constant the DC. When large current peaks are drawn the capacitor supplied surge energy helps the regulator not sag in output.

fpga

It depends on the software in the FPGA what the pin will be used for. In this case the pin is most like used as INPUT, possibly as RESET-pin or similar. If the pin was used as an OUTPUT, the output driver would have a hard time charging the capacitor and is easily overloaded, hence OUTPUT config is quite unlikely.
