4 Computer-On-Modules - the concept Embedded computer modules are highly integrated single board computers particularly suited for implementing customized solutions. Embedded computer modules are used when standard single board computers are not suitable for mechanical reasons or due to a lack of expandability. The difference between boards and modules Embedded computer modules are very small computer boards that can be integrated in almost every application without a cable connection. Every signal is transmitted via small, densely packed board-to-board industrial connectors to a customer- or application-specific carrier board. This carrier board contains all the hardware expansions and also allows the cable less distribution of the required interfaces. Computer boards are equipped with numerous and various connectors in order to allow the connection of a variety of peripherals and expansions. Complex solutions based on computer boards require many cable connections, which is frequently a cause of problems during tough industrial use. Customer specific solution The carrier board contains all the special functionalities required by the corresponding embedded application. This could be special interfaces, a unique power supply, as well as the mechanical design and the slot placement. The embedded computer module itself is plugged in like a component. This component represents a complete computer that is the intelligence of the application. Cooling The heatspreader serves as a thermal interface between the embedded computer module and the cooling solution of the system. Thus, e.g. the excess heat can be passed directly to the system housing. The heatspreader is defined in the COM specification and is uniformly implemented for all modules. Flexible and robust mechanical solutions In comparison to most computer boards, modules are very small and allow for very compact solutions.because the modules are firmly screwed down, solutions are possible even for the most difficult environmental conditions. Economical By avoiding expensive and sensitive cable connections, solutions based on embedded computer modules are already economical in mid-sized quantities. Scalability congatec currently offers modules from 500 MHz to 2.66 GHz. However, not only is the computer performance scalable, but also the interface configuration. You get precisely the performance your application needs. Long-term availability The excellent long-term availability of all congatec modules is further extended as a result of the clearly defined module interface enabling broad market offers. Minimized development risk The complexity of carrier board development is significantly reduced when embedded computer modules are used. With lower complexity, the probability of error is naturally lower as well. This means the cost and time frame of the project can be met with a significantly lower risk. Time-to-market With a module-based solution, a complex CPUboard design with accompanying BIOS development is not necessary. Modular solutions are therefore ready for market significantly faster. To accelerate the time-to-market even further, congatec offers starter kits. With this, hardware and software development can get under way immediately. Appropriate board-support packages for all standard operating systems provide an additional head start. 4

7 congatec Embedded BIOS Embedded computer users usually require more than the standard functionality of an office computer. We at congatec have taken these requirements into account when designing our BIOS functionality. By drawing on the wealth of information that has been gathered as a result of many man-power years of combined experience in BIOS development, we have implemented the special requirements of an embedded BIOS into the congatec BIOS. congatec Technology ACPI Support Power Management and System Configuration is supported by the congatec BIOS according to the ACPI specification. Multi Stage Watchdog Timer All congatec modules are equipped with a multi stage watchdog timer supporting different events such as NMI, hardware reset or power button. It can either assert a single event and/ or any combination of these events. Triggering can happen by software and/or external OEM hardware. congatec Board Controller An onboard µc fully isolates some of the embedded features such as system monitoring or the I²C bus from the x86 core architecture, which results in higher embedded feature performance and more reliability. Fast Mode I²C Bus The I²C Bus is a low speed bus interface often used for sensors, converters or data storage in embedded applications. All congatec modules offer a 400 khz multi-master I²C Bus that provides maximum I²C bandwidth. BIOS Setup Data Backup The BIOS CMOS settings are held in flash memory to allow battery-less applications. Customer specific CMOS Defaults The congatec embedded BIOS allows the customer to store their own defaults in flash memory. This helps reduce the need for customized BIOS versions. Manufacturing Data Storage The congatec board controller provides a rich data set of manufacturing and board information: Serial Number, Article Number, EAN Code, Manufacturing and Repair Date, System Statistics and more. The BIOS also keeps track of dynamically changing running time and boot count data. All this data is accessible by a uniform API. User Data Storage Area congatec modules provide 32 Bytes of non volatile storage in the EEPROM and a 64 kbyte block in the BIOS flash memory. Customer Logo The BIOS can display a custom logo instead of the traditional diagnostic output during POST. With the congatec embedded BIOS customers can now integrate an OEM logo into the standard BIOS by themselves. Hardware Monitoring The congatec BIOS already has the routines to monitor critical components implemented. Fans, operating voltages and several temperature sensors can be monitored without incurring additional development costs. Flexible BIOS Expansion Customer specific code can be executed while booting the system. During power on self test (POST) the congatec BIOS can give control to customer specific code. This gives customers more flexibility to initialize special hardware extensions. 32 Bit Uniform OS API The congatec embedded BIOS Features are accessible through a uniform 32 Bit API. congatec System Utility All Embedded BIOS features are accessible through the use of a congatec Windows tool. This includes all manufacturing and statistical information; e.g. serial number, running hours, boot counter etc. BIOS default settings, bootlogo and flat panel configurations can easily be programmed using this flexible and powerful tool.

9 Mobile Applications Qseven is unlike previous Computer-On- Modules (COM) standards due to its primary focus being directed towards mobile and ultra mobile applications. It defines fast serial differential interfaces such as PCI Express and Serial ATA but omits support for legacy interfaces like EIDE and PCI in order to provide ideal support for today as well as future CPU's and chipsets. Low Power Qseven is defined for a maximum power consumption of 12 Watt operated by a single 5 Volt DC power and provides all additional signals for battery management. This simple power requirements allow for small mobile solutions powered by compact two cell batteries. Connector Unlike most previous module standards, Qseven does not require an expensive board-to-board connector. Instead, it utilizes a very affordable MXM card slot with 230 pins in a 0.5 mm configuration. This slot is already being used for graphics cards in laptop computers, so it is capable of the high speed PEG (PCI Express Graphics) data transfers. Legacy free Qseven is a legacy free standard and only focused on high speed serial interfaces. Compact Size The module's dimensions are 70x70mm² only. This means it can be easily integrated into size constricted systems. Graphics Interfaces The video interfaces have been designed with increased flexibility. A total of four different output possibilities are defined. Direct control of a flat panel display via 2x24 Bit LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signal) with DisplayID and EPI panel detection. The physical signals the SDVO port are shared with DisplayPort and TDMS. SDIO When utilizing the SDIO interfaces, rugged and cheap SD-Cards can be used as bulk memory. Qseven defines an 8 Bit SDIO interface that is capable of a maximum data transfer rate of 52 MByte/s. The Secure Digital standard also enables other applications such as WLAN, Bluetooth, RFID etc. while using the same card format. PCI Express Qseven offers up to 4 PCI Express x1 lanes. This allows the customer to equip their embedded PC application with the next generation of PC performance. Software API Qseven embedded computer modules are equipped with a common software API for industrial applications such as Watchdog Timer, I²C Bus, LCD brightness control, BIOS user storage area and the reading of system temperatures. Qseven modules from different manufacturers can thus be easily exchanged without modifications to hardware or software. Tools Qseven COM Express XTX / ETX Technology congatec 9 w w w.congatec.com

15 New interfaces COM Express defines 440 interconnect pins between the COM Express module and the carrier board. Legacy buses such as PCI, parallel ATA and LPC are supported along with new serial high speed interfaces such as PCI Express, Serial ATA and Gigabit Ethernet. Legacy free COM Express is a legacy free standard. Outdated interfaces such as floppy, PS/2 keyboard/mouse, RS232, LPT are no longer supported. If required, these legacy interfaces can be optionally generated on the customized carrier board. Size COM Express modules are available in three different sizes: Compact, Basic and Extended. The primary difference between the modules is the overall physical size and the performance envelope supported by each. Thermal Design As with XTX and ETX, the COM Express definition includes a heatspreader that acts as a thermal interface between the COM Express module and the system s cooling solution. All heat generating components are thermally conducted to the heatspreader in order to avoid hot spots. PCI Express In addition to the 32 bit parallel PCI bus, COM Express offers up to 22 PCI Express lanes. This allows the customer to equip their embedded PC application with the next generation of PC performance. PCI Express is a low pin count interface with maximum bandwidth per pin. The scalable bandwidth is 2.5 GBit/s per lane and direction. GPIO COM Express defines freely usable general purpose inputs and outputs. PCI Express Graphic (PEG) The PEG interface utilizes up to 16 PCI Express lanes in order to drive an external ultra high performance graphic controller located on the carrier board. About PICMG PICMG is a consortium of over 450 companies who collaboratively develop open specifications for high performance telecommunications and industrial computing applications.

20 XTX - the concept XTX is an expansion and continuation of the well established and highly successful ETX standard. XTX offers the newest I/O technologies on this proven form factor. Now that the ISA bus is being used less and less in modern embedded applications, congatec offers different features on the X2 connector instead of the ISA bus currently found on the ETX platform PCI Express guarantees longvity for XTX. Pinout X2 - XTX <-> ETX X2 4x PCI Express 4x Serial ATA 2x USB 2.0 (2x ExpressCard) High Definition Audio LPC Bus Ext. System Management Fan Control ETX ETX was one of the very first Computer-On-Module concepts ever. It was defined in 1998 by JUMPtec as an open standard. ETX is a well established and highly successful standard. It offers most standard PC I/O s on a compact form factor.

21 Advantages XTX PCI Express In addition to the 32 bit parallel PCI bus, XTX offers 4 PCI Express lanes. This allows the customer to equip their embedded PC application with next generation of PC performance. PCI Express is a low pin count interface with maximum bandwidth per pin. The scalable bandwidth is 2.5 GBit/s per lane and direction. Serial ATA Interfaces (SATA) SATA is an enhancement of the parallel ATA there-fore offering higher performance. As a result of this enhancement the traditional restrictions of parallel ATA are overcome with respect to speed and EMI. ExpressCard XTX supports up to two ExpressCard slots. ExpressCard is the successor to PCMCIA. High Speed USB XTX offers two additional USB 2.0 ports thereby increasing the total amount of USB ports available to 6. LPC Bus As a replacement to the no longer supported ISA bus, XTX offers the LPC (Low Pin Count) bus. The LPC bus corresponds approximately to a serialized ISA bus yet with a significantly reduced number of signals. Backwards Compatible to ETX XTX is 100% backwards compatible to the ETX standard. Most customer specific carrier boards will not require a redesign in order to use congatec s XTX modules. The ISA bus can be implemented through the use of a PCI-ISA bridge on the customer specific carrier board. As an alternative to this the customer can use the readily available XTX LPC bus. Identical Mechanics to ETX The size (95x114 mm), the mounting, the height, the connectors and the heatspreader are exactly the same as defined in the ETX specification. Existing ETX solutions can easily switch to the innovative XTX platform without any mechanical change. Upgrade to XTX Applications which do not utilize the ISA bus can directly upgrade to XTX modules. The signals at connectors X1, X3 and X4 are equal to ETX. Only the signals at the X2 connector have been redefined in order to support PCI Express, SATA, LPC and more. Existing ETX carrier boards can easily be upgraded to take advantage of these new and fast interfaces. Tools Qseven COM Express XTX / ETX Technology congatec 21 w w w.congatec.com

26 Engineering Tools for Qseven, COM Express, Cooling Solution Heatspreader The specifications for Qseven, COM Express, XTX and ETX embedded computer modules include a heatspreader, which is a mechanical definition of the thermal interface. All the heat generated by components such as chipsets and processors is transferred to the system s cooling via the heatspreader. This can be achieved by either a thermal connection to the casing, a heat pipe or a heat sink. Thermal simulation of an active cooling solution Active cooling solution Passive cooling solution Active and passive standard cooling solutions Compared with sandwich-type constructions for heatspreaders and coo-ling systems, active and passive cooling solutions remove one layer from the process. The heatspreader and cooler are manufactured as one unit, which enables them to provide faster thermal conduction. For an active cooling solution, a high performance quiet fan has been integrated within the cooling fins. Thermal Stacks The thermal stacks can also be used separately without a heatspreader. It is distinguished from a heatspreader by its lack of a thermal conductive surface. This also reduces differences in temperature. 26
