Chapter 2 Product Overview
This introduction presents general information about the PC/104 architecture and the CoreModule 745 Single Board Computer (SBC). After reading this chapter you should understand:

CoreModule 745 features
Major components (ICs)
Headers and Connectors
Specifications
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 745 SBC, input/output devices connected to the serial, USB, or SATA ports, and the on-board Solid State Disk storage device. To expand a simple CoreModule system, simply add self­stacking 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 745 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 745. PC/104-compliant modules can be stacked with an inter-board spacing of ~0.6 inches, so that a 3-module system fits in a 3.6" x 3.8" x 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 ~17mm (0.66"). See Figure 2-1.

Product Description
The CoreModule 745 SBC is an exceptionally high integration, high performance, Intel Atom™ N455 or D525 processor based system, compatible with the PC/104 standard. This rugged and high quality single­board system contains all the component subsystems of an ATX motherboard plus the equivalent of several PCI expansion boards.
The Intel Atom N400 and D500 series CPUs integrate processor cores with Graphics and Memory Hubs (GMHs), providing low-power, high-performance processors, memory controllers for up to 2GB DDR3 memory, and graphics controllers which provide LVDS and VGA signals for most LCD video panels and CRT monitors.
The ICH8-M chipset provides controllers for the I/O Hub (Southbridge) featuring four USB ports, two SATA ports, one Ultra DMA 33/66/100 IDE port supporting two IDE devices, one SMBus port, one SPI port, one GPIO port, one PCIe bus for Gigabit Ethernet, and one PCI bus for PC/104 and PC/104-plus devices. The CoreModule 745 provides legacy interfaces through the SMSC SCH3112I-NU Super I/O featuring three serial ports and a PS/2 keyboard and mouse port.
The CoreModule 745 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 745 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 745 requires a single +5V AT power source.

NOTE ADLINK Technology, Inc. only supports the features/options tested and listed in
this manual. The main chips used in the CoreModule 745 may provide more features or options than are listed for the CoreModule 745, but some of these features/options are not supported on the module and will not function as specified in the chip documentation.
The pin-out tables only of non-standard headers and connectors are included in this chapter. This chapter does not include pinout tables for standard headers and connectors such as SATA, PC/104, and PC/104-Plus. Refer to references in
Chapter 1 for PC/104 and PC/104 Plus pin outs.
CPU
The CoreModule 745 offers two versions of the Intel Atom™ N400/D500 series CPU—the N455 and D525—operating at 1.67GHz with 6.5W TDP, and 1.83GHz with 13W TDP, respectively. The N400/D500 integrates a low-power and high-performance x86 Processor Core with Memory Controller and 3D Graphics Engine. This single chip is based on 45-nm, Hi-K process technology, ideal for deeply embedded applications.
Graphics
The N400/D500 CPU provides a refresh of the Intel third generation graphics core—a 2D/3D graphics engine that performs pixel shading and vertex shading within a single hardware accelerator, which minimizes access to memory and improves render performance.
Memory
The CoreModule 745 supports one DDR3 SODIMM for up to 2GB of RAM. One 64-bit access channel supports single- or double-sided DIMMs, allowing for up to two device ranks. Enhanced memory technology on the board provides optimized bandwidth and reduced latency, increased efficiency of system memory protocol, and a near continuous data flow to the processor.

Serial Interfaces
The CoreModule 745 provides three serial ports: two RS-232/485/422 ports (COM1 and COM2) and one RS-232 port (COM3). The SCH3114I-NU SIO contains the circuitry for all three serial ports and delivers the signals through three transceivers. The two RS-232/485/422 ports require two transceivers: one ADM213EARSZ (U11) for RS-232 signals and one LTC1334CG (U12) for RS-485/422 signals. The third serial port requires only one ADM213EARSZ transceiver (U38) for RS-232 signals. The serial ports support the following features:
Three individual high-speed NS16C550A-compatible UARTs
Programmable word length, stop bits and parity
16-bit programmable baud rate generator
Interrupt generator
Loop-back mode
Three individual 16-bit FIFOs
Serial Port Headers
J3 - Serial Port 1 (COM1) supports RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 and full modem support
J4 - Serial Port 2 (COM2) supports RS-232/RS-485/RS-422 and full modem support
J5 - Serial Port 3 (COM3) supports RS-232 and full modem support
NOTE The RS-485/RS-422 mode can be selected for the COM1 and COM2 serial ports
in BIOS Setup under the Advanced>Super IO Configuration menu. However, the RS-232 mode is the default selection (Standard) for any serial port.
To implement the two-wire RS-485 mode on any serial port, you must tie together the equivalent pins for each port.
For example, on Serial Port 1, tie pin 3 to 5 and pin 4 to 6 at the J3 header as shown in Figure 3-1. As an alternate, tie pin 2 to 3 and pin 7 to 8 at the DB9 serial connector for Serial Port 1 as shown in Figure 3-1. Refer also to the following tables for the specific pin signals on each connector.
NOTE The RS-422 mode uses a four-wire interface and does not require any pins tied
together, but you must select RS-485 in BIOS Setup and make sure the termination jumper is removed.

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 boot using 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 3-2 on the Serial Port 1 DB9 connector.
Figure 3-2. Oops! Jumper Serial Port (DB9)
Remote Access
The CoreModule 745 BIOS supports Remote Access (or console redirection). This I/O function can be utilized through 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.
Remote Access Setup
The Remote Access feature is implemented by connecting a standard null modem cable or modified serial cable (“Hot Cable”) between one of the serial ports (Serial 1 or 2) and the serial terminal or a PC with communications software. The BIOS Setup Utility controls the Remote Access settings on the CoreModule 745. Refer to “Remote Access Configuration” on page 40 for the settings of the Remote Access feature.
Hot (Serial) Cable
To convert a standard serial cable to a “Hot Cable”, certain pins must be shorted together at the Serial port header or on the DB9 connector. Short together the RTS (7) and RI (9) pins on either serial port DB9 connector as shown in Figure 3-3.

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 745
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 745 Support Software QuickDrive.

PCI-ISA Bridge Mapping
The CoreModule 745 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 745 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 745 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 745 OEM Logo utility supports the following image formats:
