# Introduction

The COM Express approach of custom carrier combined with off-the-shelf system cores relieves developers the need to design their own system core, thereby not only accelerating their proof of concept significantly but also empowers them to upgrade to later-generation processors without having to redesign. It fits most system integration projects with production volumes ranging from 500 to 10,000 pcs per year. The COM Express concept reduces engineering complexity, lowers the threshold for total project quantity, and last but not least brings your product to the market in no time. The average time to design a carrier board is less than half the time of a full custom OEM board.

The Express-BASE6 R3.1, based on PICMG COM-Express R3.1, is an extended ATX size carrier board. Together with the COM Express Type 6 module of your choice and off-the-shelf add-on cards, you can quickly emulate the functionality of your desired end product for software development and hardware verification.

To build a functional prototype of your target system, you will need:

COM Express Type 6 module
Express-BASE6 R3.1 carrier
PCI Express-based storage or SATA storage (SATA storage solutions are dependent on module specifications)

The Express-BASE6 R3.1 carrier is compatible with Basic size and Compact size COMe modules and may accommodate:

1x PCI Express x16 slot, 1x PCI Express x4 slots, 4x PCI Express x1 slots
1x VGA, 1x DP, 1x general purpose LAN, 2x USB 4.0, 4x USB 3.2, 2x USB 2.0, 1x DB-9 COM port, 1x SPDIF, 1x Line-in/Mic-in/Speaker-out (at rear I/O)

# Secondary BIOS

The Express-BASE6 R3.1 carrier board supports Secondary BIOS for COM modules, using the Boot SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface).

Secondary BIOS solutions can be used as an alternative to the on-module BIOS and provide support for the following:

• Testing new BIOS versions
• Development of firmware modifications
• Recovery if soldered BIOS on module is corrupted

To use the BIOS on the module, short pins 1-2 on JP6, JP7, reference section 6.30

To use the BIOS on the carrier board, Short pins 2-3 on JP6, and keep pin 1-2 on JP7, reference section 6.30

Make sure that the secondary BIOS flash chip has been properly installed onto the Carrier BIOS socket before Boot BIOS adjusting.

# 8.3. ATX Power Connectors

The COM Express Base6 R3.1 has one ATX 24-pin connector to supply power to the carrier board and one ATX 12V 4-pin connector to supply power to the COM module.

The system will not power on unless an ATX 12V 4-pin connector is connected.

If your power supply has a 24-pin ATX connector, then attach the connectors as shown.
