# PC/104 Architecture

The PC/104 architecture affords a great deal of flexibility in system design. You can build a simple system using only a CoreModule 740, an input/output device connected to the serial or parallel ports, and an IDE storage device connected to the IDE port. To expand a simple CoreModule system, simply add self-stacking PC/104 and PC/104-Plus expansion boards to provide additional capabilities, such as:

• Additional serial and parallel ports
• Analog or high-speed digital I/O

♦ Data Acquisition (Analog In/Out)
♦ USB 2.0 expansion modules
♦ IEEE 1394 (FireWire) expansion modules
♦ Standard VGA video output

PC/104 or PC/104-Plus expansion modules can be stacked with the CoreModule 740 avoiding the need for large, expensive card cages and backplanes. The PC/104-Plus expansion modules can be mounted directly to the PC/104 and PC/104-Plus connectors of the CoreModule 740. PC/104-compliant modules can be stacked with an inter-board spacing of $\sim 0.66$ inches, so that a 3-module system fits in a $3.6'' \times 3.8'' \times 2.4''$ space. See Figure 2-1.

One or more MiniModule products or other PC/104 modules can be installed on the CoreModule expansion connectors, so that the expansion modules fit within the CoreModule outline dimensions. Most MiniModule products have stackthrough connectors compatible with the PC/104-Plus Version 2.0 specification. Several modules can be stacked on the CoreModule headers. Each additional module increases the thickness of the package by $\sim 17\mathrm{mm}$ (0.66"). See Figure 2-1.

# Product Description

The CoreModule 740 SBC is an exceptionally high integration, high performance, Intel® Atom™ N450 processor based system compatible with the PC/104 standard. This rugged and high quality single-board system contains all the component subsystems of an ATX motherboard plus the equivalent of several PCI expansion boards.

The Intel Atom N400 series CPUs integrate processor cores with Graphics and Memory Hubs (GMHs), providing low-power, high-performance processors, memory controllers for up to 512MB of onboard SDRAM memory, and graphics controllers which provide LVDS and VGA signals for most LCD video panels.

The ICH8-M chipset provides controllers for the I/O Hub (Southbridge) featuring two USB ports, one Ultra DMA 33/66/100 IDE port supporting two IDE devices, and one PCI port. The CoreModule 740 provides legacy interfaces through the SMSC SCH3112I-NU Super I/O featuring two serial ports, one parallel port, PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, and one floppy port.

The CoreModule 740 can be expanded through the PCI expansion bus using the PC/104 and PC/104-Plus connectors for additional system functions. This bus offers compact, self-stacking, modular expandability. The PC/104 bus is an embedded system version of the signal set provided on a desktop PC's ISA bus. The PC/104-Plus bus includes this signal set plus additional signals implementing a PCI bus, available on a 120-pin (4 rows of 30 pins) PCI expansion bus connector. This PCI bus operates at a clock speed of 33MHz.

The CoreModule 740 is particularly well suited to either embedded or portable applications and meets the size, power consumption, temperature range, quality, and reliability demands of embedded system applications. It can be stacked with ADLINK MiniModules $^{™}$ or other PC/104-compliant expansion modules, or it can be used as a powerful computing engine. The CoreModule 740 requires a single +5V AT power source.

# Miscellaneous

# Real Time Clock (RTC)

The CoreModule 740 contains a Real Time Clock (RTC). The RTC can be backed up with a battery. If the battery is not present, the board BIOS has a battery-less boot option to complete the boot process.

# Oops! Jumper (BIOS Recovery)

The Oops! jumper function is provided in the event the BIOS settings you have selected prevent you from booting the system. By using the Oops! jumper you can prevent the current BIOS settings in flash from being loaded, allowing you to re-load default settings.

Use a jumper to connect the DTR pin (4) to the RI pin (9) on Serial Port 1 (COM 1) prior to boot-up to prevent the present BIOS settings from loading. After booting with the Oops! jumper in place, remove the Oops! jumper and return to BIOS Setup. You must now load factory defaults by selecting Load Optimal Defaults from the Exit menu. Then select Save Changes and Exit to reboot the system. Now you can modify the default settings to your desired values. Ensure you save the changes before rebooting the system.

To convert a standard DB9 connector to an Oops! jumper, short together the DTR (4) and RI (9) pins on the front of the connector as shown in Figure 3-1 on the Serial Port 1 DB9 connector.

![Standard DB9 Serial\nPort Connector (Male)\nFront View\n1 2 3 4 5\n6 7 8 9\nCM740_Oopsjump](.50-1z046-1010-cm740-referencemanual-final-en/ae47ebd02e1d6836063d489a1e1af9c8d4d225b6fe17a89ed3b6997b987a714b.jpg)

Figure 3-1. Oops! Jumper Serial Port (DB9)

# Serial Console

The CoreModule 740 BIOS supports the serial console (or console redirection) feature. This I/O function is provided by an ANSI-compatible serial terminal, or the equivalent terminal emulation software running on another system. This can be very useful when setting up the BIOS on a production line for systems that are not connected to a keyboard and display.

# Serial Console Setup

The serial console feature is implemented by entering the serial console settings in BIOS Setup Utility and connecting the appropriate serial cable (a standard null modem serial cable or “Hot Cable”) between one of the serial ports (serial 1 or 2), and the serial terminal or a PC with communications software.

# Hot (Serial) Cable

To convert a standard serial cable to a “Hot Cable”, certain pins must be shorted together at the Serial port connector or on the DB9 connector. Short together the RTS (7) and RI (9) pins on either serial port DB9 connector as shown in Figure 3-2.

![Standard DB9 Serial\nPort Connector (Female)\nRear View\n1 2 3 4 5\n6 7 8 9\nCM740_HotCable](.50-1z046-1010-cm740-referencemanual-final-en/9dd03c44b8b00c72d53acb0f0c11609f33e42c99b49722e28f487cff4e08de8c.jpg)

# Watchdog Timer

The Watchdog Timer (WDT) restarts the system if a mishap occurs, ensuring proper start-up after the interruption. Possible problems include failure to boot properly, the application software's loss of control, failure of an interface device, unexpected conditions on the bus, or other hardware or software malfunctions.

The WDT (watchdog timer) can be used both during the boot process and during normal system operation.

\- During the Boot process – If the operating system fails to boot in the time interval set in the BIOS, the system will reset.

Enable the WDT using Boot Settings Configuration of the Boot menu in BIOS Setup. Set the WDT for a time-out interval in seconds, between 1 and 255, in one-second increments in the Boot Setting Configuration screen. Ensure you allow enough time for the boot process to complete and for the OS to boot. The OS or application must tickle the WDT as soon as it comes up. This can be done by accessing the hardware directly or through a BIOS call.

\- During System Operation – An application can set up the WDT hardware through a BIOS call, or by accessing the hardware directly. Some ADLINK Board Support Packages provide an API interface to the WDT. The application must tickle the WDT in the time set when the WDT is initialized or the system will be reset. You can use a BIOS call to tickle the WDT or access the hardware directly.

The BIOS implements interrupt 15 function 0C3h to manipulate the WDT.

\- Watchdog Code examples – ADLINK has provided source code examples on the CoreModule 740 Support Software QuickDrive illustrating how to control the WDT. The code examples can be easily copied to your development environment to compile and test the examples, or make any desired changes before compiling. Refer to the WDT Readme file on the CoreModule 740 Support Software QuickDrive.

# Introduction

This section assumes the user is familiar with general BIOS Setup and does not attempt to describe the BIOS functions. Refer to “BIOS Setup Menus” on page 39 in this chapter for a map of the BIOS Setup settings. If ADLINK has added to or modified any of the standard BIOS functions, these functions will be described.

# Entering BIOS Setup (VGA Display)

To access BIOS Setup using a VGA display for the CoreModule 740:

1. Turn on the VGA monitor and the power supply to the CoreModule 740.
2. Start Setup by pressing the [Del] key when the following message appears on the boot screen.

Press DEL to run Setup

NOTE If the setting for Quick Boot is [Enabled], you may not see this prompt appear on screen. If this happens, press the &lt;Del&gt; key early in the boot sequence to enter BIOS Setup.

3. Follow the instructions on the right side of the screen to navigate through the selections and modify any settings.

# Entering BIOS Setup (Remote Access)

This section describes how to enable the Remote Access in VGA mode and enter the BIOS setup through a serial terminal or PC.

1. Turn on the power supply to the CoreModule 740 and enter the BIOS Setup Utility in VGA mode.
2. Set the BIOS feature Remote Access Configuration to [Enable] under the Advanced menu.
3. Accept the default options or make your own selections for the balance of the Remote Access fields and record your settings.
4. Ensure you select the type of remote serial terminal you will be using and record your selection.
5. Select Save Changes and Exit and then shut down the CoreModule 740.
6. Connect the remote serial terminal (or the PC with communications software) to the COM port you selected and recorded earlier in the BIOS Setup Utility.
7. Turn on the remote serial terminal or PC and set it to the settings you selected in the BIOS Setup Utility. The default settings for the CoreModule 740 are:

Press &lt;space bar&gt; to update BIOS

9. Press the F4 key to enter Setup (early in the boot sequence if Quick Boot is set to [Enabled].) If Quick Boot is set to [Enabled], you may never see the screen prompt.
10. Use the &lt;Enter&gt; key to select the screen menus listed in the Opening BIOS screen.

# NOTE

The serial console port is not hardware protected. Diagnostic software that probes hardware addresses may cause a loss or failure of the serial console functions.

# PCI-ISA Bridge Mapping

The CoreModule 740 supports ISA bus based modules with an on-board PCI-ISA bridge. The PCI-ISA bridge optionally maps the IRQs to ISA based modules.

The CoreModule 740 system BIOS, maps the above resources based on information provided in the BIOS Setup screens. By default, IRQs to be mapped to ISA modules must be explicitly specified by the user in the BIOS Setup screens.

The IRQs are mapped with the “PCIPnP/IRQx” fields in BIOS setup (where x specifies the IRQ number.) The IRQs 3, 4, 5, 7, 9, 10, 11, 14, and 15 can be mapped to ISA based modules by changing the default setting for these IRQs from “Available” to “Reserved”.

# OEM Logo Utility

The CoreModule 740 BIOS supports a graphical logo utility, which can be customized by the user and displayed when enabled through the BIOS Setup Utility. The graphical image can be a company logo or any custom image the user wants to display during the boot process. The custom image can be displayed as the first image on screen and remain there while the OS boots, depending on the options selected in BIOS Setup.

# Logo Image Requirements

The user's image may be customized with any image editing tool, and the system will automatically convert the image into an acceptable format to the tools (files and utilities) provided by ADLINK. The CoreModule 740 OEM Logo utility supports the following image formats:

- Bitmap image
◆ 16-Color, 640x480 pixels
◆ 256-Color, 640x480 pixels
- JPG image
◆ 16-Color, 640x480 pixels
- PCX image
◆ 256-Color, 640x480 pixels
• A file size no larger than 64kB

# BIOS Setup Menus

This section provides illustrations of the six main setup screens in the CoreModule 740 BIOS Setup Utility. Below each illustration is a bulleted list of the screen's submenus and setting selections. The setting selections are presented in brackets after each submenu or menu item and the optimal default settings are presented in bold. For more detailed definitions of the BIOS settings, refer to the AMIBIOS8 manual: http://www.ami.com/support/doc/MAN-EZP-80.pdf

# NOTE

If you need more information concerning the I/O Interface Board than is provided in this Appendix, refer to the CoreModule 740 QuickDrive for a schematic, BOM, and AVL.

# I/O Interface Board Connectors and Headers

The following tables define the pin signals of all the non-standard connectors and headers on the I/O Interface Board. This appendix does not define industry-standard connectors on the board such as parallel, DB9 serial, PS2 mouse and keyboard, and USB.

NOTE The CoreModule 740 does not support the Infrared header (J12) shown in Figure B-1.

Table B-1 lists the signals and their descriptions for the J1 Utility interface, which provides a shrouded 40-pin header with odd/even (1, 2) pin sequence. The third column in this table denotes the corresponding pins from the J5 header on the CoreModule 740.

Note: The shaded table cells denote power or ground. NC = Not Connected at the CoreModule 740. The \* symbol indicates the signal is Active Low.
