Chapter 2 Product Overview
This overview presents general information about the PCI/104-Express form factor and the CoreModule 920
Single Board Computer (SBC). After reading this chapter you should understand the following points with
regard to the CoreModule 920.
• PCI/104-Express From Factor
• Product Description
• Major Components (ICs)
• Headers, Connectors, and Sockets
• Product Specifications
PCI/104-Express Form Factor
This product is based on PCI Express architecture and the PCI/104-Express form factor. The PCI/104Express form factor affords a great deal of flexibility in system design. You can build a simple system using
only a CoreModule SBC, input/output devices connected to serial, USB, or SATA ports, and the on-board
storage device. To expand a simple CoreModule system, simply add self-stacking expansion modules 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
PCI/104-Express-compliant expansion modules can be stacked with a CoreModule SBC, avoiding the need
for large, expensive card cages and backplanes. These expansion modules can be mounted directly to the
expansion connectors of the CoreModule, with inter-board spacings of ~0.6 inches, so that a 3-module
system fits in a 4.6" x 3.8" x 2.0" space. See Figure 2-1.
One or more PCI/104-Express-compliant modules can be installed on the CoreModule SBC expansion
connectors so that the expansion modules fit within the CoreModule outline dimensions. The PCI/104Express form factor allows for several modules to be stacked up or down from the CoreModule expansion
connectors with each additional module increasing the thickness of the package by ~17mm (0.6"). See
Figure 2-1.

Product Description
The CoreModule 920 SBC is a highly integrated, high-performance, Intel Core™ i7 processor based
system, compliant with PCI Express architecture and the PCI/104-Express form factor. This rugged and high
quality single-board system contains all the component subsystems of an ATX motherboard, plus the
equivalent of several PCI and PCI Express expansion boards.
The Intel Core i7 series CPU integrates a multiple execution core with a Graphics and Memory Controller
Hub (GMCH), providing a high-performance processor, a memory controller for up to 2GB of DDR3 onboard memory, and a graphics controller that provides VGA, LVDS, and HDMI ports driven by the PCH
(Platform Controller Hub) and one PCIe x16 Graphics (PEG) port driven by the CPU.
Each CoreModule 920 incorporates an Intel BD82QM67 PCH, providing the controller hub for a range of
common user interfaces including six USB 2.0 ports, two serial ports, two SATA 3.0 ports, one SATA 2.0
port dedicated for the SSD, four PCIe x1 lanes, as well as interfaces for GPIO and RTC battery. The
CoreModule 920 provides a Solid State Drive through the SATA2 port for storage up to 8GB, a Hardware
Monitor chip to control temperature and voltage levels, and a Utility interface for Power button, Reset
switch, and Speaker output. The PCH connects to two 10-pin Gigabit Ethernet interfaces through two PCIe
x1 lanes.
The CoreModule 920 can be expanded through the PCIe expansion bus using the PCI-104 and PCIe/104
interfaces for additional system functions. These interfaces offer compact, self-stacking, modular
expandability. The PCI-104 interface implements a PCI bus available on a 120-pin (4 rows of 30 pins) PCI
expansion bus connector. The PCIe/104 interface includes the PCIe signal set plus SMBus and USB 2.0
signals available on top and bottom-side, 156-pin high-speed PCIe connectors. The PCI bus operates at a
clock speed of up to 33MHz, and the PCIe bus operates at a clock speed of up to 100MHz.
The CoreModule 920 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 expansion modules or other PCI/104-Express-compliant
expansion modules, or it can be used as a powerful computing engine. The CoreModule 920 requires a
single +5V AT power source.
