# 3 Getting Started

This chapter provides information on how to install components on the NuPRO-A301 SBC.

# 3.1 Installing the CPU

The NuPRO-A301 supports a single Intel® Core™2 Duo, Pentium® Dual Core, Pentium® 4, and Celeron® processor via the surface mount LGA775 socket (Socket T).

![The image displays a red triangular warning symbol featuring a white exclamation mark in the center. Below the triangle, the text 'WARNING' appears in black capital letters.](.nupro-a301-50-13065-1000-200-en/3e4775abc73741ba9adcd4de780bbf9e569d607fb27f277edfa032da9b1490b0.jpg)

Disconnect all power supply to the board before installing a CPU to prevent damaging the board and CPU.

Do not touch socket contacts. Damaging the contacts voids the product warranty. Follow the installation instructions carefully to avoid damaging SBC components.

![Close-up of a CPU socket with a red prohibition symbol (no text or symbols on the socket itself)](.nupro-a301-50-13065-1000-200-en/2efd2fbbb7c1611ddcd4814f07e239cf2b01d0e5620b44b190e8d5f2f1590646.jpg)

# CPU Fan/Heatsink Installation

When the CPU fan/heatsink installation procedures presented here are inconsistent with the installation procedures included with the CPU fan and heatsink package, follow the latter.

To install the CPU fan/heatsink:

1. Attach the backplate included with the fan/heatsink to the bottom side of the SBC. If necessary, remove the paper strip(s) from the self-adhesive pads to secure the backplate to the SBC.
2. Remove the cover or plastic protector from the CPU-side of the heatsink if necessary. The heatsink may have a thermal interface material pre-applied. If not, a packet of thermal grease will be supplied with the heatsink. Apply thermal grease evenly on top of the installed CPU if required.
3. Carefully lower the CPU fan/heatsink onto the CPU and align the captive screws with the mounting holes of the backplate. Ensure the fan cable is on the side closest to the fan connector. Begin threading each screw into the backplate, then gradually tighten the screws in a criss-cross pattern until they are fully secured (see diagram below).

Fully tightening a screw at one corner before beginning to tighten the other screws may cause uneven pressure to be applied to the CPU and damage the component and/or SBC.

4. Connect the CPU fan cable to the CPU fan connector on the SBC labeled CN1 (see "Board Layout" on page 10).

Note: Do not use fan/heatsinks with push-pin type attachments. They may exert too much tension on the PCB and cause the board to flex, resulting in damage to the SBC.

# Holding the SBC with Fan/Heatsink Installed

When the fan/heatsink is installed, always hold the SBC with two hands by the card edges. Make sure to support the weight of the fan/heatsink to prevent the board from bending, resulting in damage to circuitry and/or components.

Failure to properly support the weight of the fan/heatsink assembly when installed on the SBC may cause the board to flex and result in damage to circuitry and/or components.

# 3.3 Installing the Power Connectors

Refer to Section 2.2 Board Layout on page 10 and Section 2.3 Onboard Connectors on page 12 for detailed information on connectors and pin definitions referred to below.

# ATX 12V Power Connector

The NuPRO-A301 requires +12V DC power connected to CN4 for proper operation in either ATX or AT modes. If necessary, order a ATX12V Convert Cable from ADLINK for use with Molex 4-pin power connectors (P/N 30-00006-0000).

# Front Panel Connector

Before powering up the NuPRO-A301, connect the necessary signals from the backplane to the Front Panel Connector (JPB1). The ATX Power Connector pin group (pins 11, 13, 15, 17, 19) and Power On Button pin group (pins 18, 20) must be connected for the system to power up in ATX mode.

# 3.4 Installing Memory Modules

The NuPRO-A301 supports up to 2 GB of DDR2 533/667 MHz memory modules via two DDR2 DIMM sockets. A DDR2 module has a 240-pin footprint compared to the legacy 184-pin DDR DIMM. DDR2 modules are notched to facilitate correct installation on the DIMM sockets.

![The image shows a red triangle with a black border containing a black exclamation point in the center. Below the triangle is the text 'WARNING:' in black, uppercase letters.](.nupro-a301-50-13065-1000-200-en/7b5b7b6d9b08d4f581ebf4badf8f8f4bbf95c437845b2fc02c1ca46f51ecf2d3.jpg)

Disconnect all power supply to the board before installing a memory module to prevent damaging the board and memory module.

# Memory Configuration Options

The NuPRO-A301 allows you to install 512 MB, and 1GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR2 DIMMs into the DIMM sockets following these configuration options:

▶ Channel A: DIMM1
Channel B: DIMM2
For dual-channel configuration, the total size of memory module installed per channel must be the same (DIMM1 = DIMM2).
It is recommended that you install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For maximum compatibility, install memory modules with the same brand, model, and/or rating.

To install a memory module:

1. Locate the DIMM sockets on the SBC.
2. Press the socket's retaining clips outward to unlock.
