1.1 Overview

The cPCI-3615 Series is a 3U CompactPCI single board computer
in single-slot (4HP), dual-slot (8HP) or triple-slot (12HP) width
form factor featuring the Intel® Atom™ N455 or D525 processor
with ICH8M I/O Controller Hub. The cPCI-3615 provides single
channel DDR3-800 soldered onboard memory up to 4GB, inte­grated graphics on the CPU, IDE CompactFlash slot, and

2.5” SATA HDD (cPCI-3615D/P) and one PMC/XMC site

and additional 2x USB, COM, KB/MS, and line-in/out for the
8(12)HP cPCI-3615D(P) models.

The optional Rear Transition Module (RTM) provides 2x SATA,
2x GbE, 1x USB, 2x COM, and VGA ports. One PCI-Express x1
port, GPIO and SMBus signals are routed to the J2 connector. The
cPCI-3615 Series is ideally suited for transportation, factory auto­mation, and other industrial applications.

higher vibration specification, it is recommended to use a flash disk.

2. ADLINK-certified thermal design. The thermal performance is
dependent on the chassis cooling design. Forced airflow with

3.2 m/s is required. Temperature limit of optional mass storage
devices may affect the thermal specification.

2.3 Power Requirements

In order to guarantee stable operation of the system, it is recom­mended that significantly more power be provided than required.

An industrial power supply unit should be able to provide at
least twice as much power as the entire system requires of
each voltage. An ATX power supply unit should be able to provide

at least three times as much po wer as the entire syst em requires
of each voltage.

The tolerance of the voltage lines described in the CompactPCI
specification (PICMG 2.0 R3.0) is +5%/-3% for 5, 3.3 V and ±5%
for ±12V. This specification is for power delivered to each slot and
it includes both the power supply and the backplane tolerance.

Voltage

5V +5.0 VDC +5% / -3% 50 mV

3.3V +3.3 VDC +5% / -3% 50 mV

The following sections describe the cPCI-3615 Series features
and functions.

3.1 Processor

cPCI-3615

The cPCI-3615 Series supports the

Intel® Atom™ Processor N400,
D400 and D500 Series processors built on 45-nm Hi-K process
technology. The processor is designed for a two-chip platform as
opposed to the traditional three-chip platforms (processor, GMCH,
and ICH). The two-chip platform consists of a processor and the
chipset and enables higher performance, lower cost, easier valida­tion, and improved x-y footprint.

3.2 Chipset

Intel® ICH8 Mobile I/O Controller Hub

The ICH8M provides extensive I/O support. Functions and capa­bilities include:

X Provides 6 PCI Expressx1 ports, supporting the PCI

Express Base Specification, Revision 1.1. Each Root Port
supports 2.5GB/s bandwidth in each direction. The
cPCI-3615 utilizes two PCI Express x1 ports for two Gigabit
Ethernet controllers; routes two PCI Express x1 ports to the
board-to-board connector and one PCI Express x1 port to
the J2 connector for expansion capability.

X Enhanced DMA controller, interrupt controller, and timer functions
X Integrated Serial A TA host controller with independent DMA

operation on three ports

X Integrated IDE controller supports Ultra ATA100/66/33
X System Management Bus (SMBus) Specification, Version

2.0 with additional support for I2C devices

X Supports Intel® Matrix Storage Technology
X PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.3 support for

33MHz PCI operations

3.3 Super I/O

The ITE IT8783F Super I/O is on a Low Pin Count interface sup­porting PS/2 keyboard/mouse; three 16C550-compatible serial
ports; hardware monitor function to monitor CPU voltage, CPU
temperature, power supply voltages and system temperature; and
Watchdog Timer with time resolution from minimum 1 second or
minute to maximum 65635 seconds or minutes on the cPCI-3615.
