1. When using the cPCI-R3P00 RTM, LAN1/2 from the 82574L controllers
can be routed via J2 to the RTM. When using the cPCI-R3P00T RTM,
the cPCI-3970 front panel GbE ports change to LAN3/4 and the
cPCI-R3P00T GbE ports are LAN1/2 due to PCI-Express root port
sequence requirements of the PCH.

2. The storage device limits the operational vibration tolerance.
When the application requires higher specification for
anti-vibration, it is recommended to use a flash storage device.

3. ADLINK-certified thermal design. The thermal performance is depen­dent on the chassis cooling design. Sufficient forced air-flow is required
(see “Thermal Requirements” on page 22). Temperature limits of
optional mass storage devices may also affect the thermal specification.

4. A DB-9-to-DB-9 dongle to convert the cPCI-3970G RS-422/485 pin defi­nitions to common pin definitions is included in the package
(“cPCI-3970G/U Serial Ports” on page 44).

2.5 Power Requirements

In order to guarantee a stable functionality of the system, it is rec­ommended to provide more power than the system requires. 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 s hould be able to provide at

least three times as much power as the entire system 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.

2.6 Thermal Requirements

Cooling of the CompactPCI blade and its components is provided
by the thermal module (passive heat sink) and is dep endent on suf­ficient airflow from the chassis. The amount of thermal energy that
can by dissipated from the board is dependent on the ambient air
temperature and the airflow rate of the chassis. Please refer to the
separate document cPCI-3970 Power Dissipation Guidelines
which gives information on the upper limits of operating conditions
and the maximum ambient air temperature as a function of airflow
rate for a given level of power consumption for the cPCI-3970
blade.

Express x1 lane.

Functional Description 25

3.4 Intel® Turbo Boost Technology

Intel Turbo Boost Technology is a feature that allows the processor
to opportunistically and automatically run faster than its rated
operating core and/or render clock frequency when there is suffi­cient power headroom, and the product is within specified temper­ature and current limits. The Intel Turbo Boost Technology feature
is designed to increase performance of both multi-threaded and
single-threaded workloads. The processor supports a Turbo mode
where the processor can use the thermal capacity associated with
package and run at power levels higher than TDP power for
short durations. This improves the system responsiveness for
short, bursty usage conditions.

Turbo Mode availability is independent of the number of active
cores; however, the Turbo Mode frequency is dynamic and depen­dent on the instantaneous application power load, the number of
active cores, user configurable settings, operating environment,
and system design. If the power, current, or thermal limit is
reached, the processor will automatically reduce the frequency to
stay with its TDP limit.

3.5 Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology

Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology allows an execution core to
function as two logical processors. While some execution
resources (such as caches, execution units, and buses) are
shared, each logical processor has its own architectura l state with
its own set of general-purpose registers and control registers. This
feature must be enabled using the BIOS and requires operating
system support. Intel recommends enabling Hyper-Threading
Technology with Microsoft Windows 7, Vista, and XP, and dis­abling Hyper-Threading Technology using the BIOS for all prev i­ous versions of Windows operating systems.

3.6 Trusted Platform Module

The cPCI-3970 integrates the Infineon SLB 9635 TT 1.2 Trusted
Platform Module (TPM), a security controller with cryptographic
functionality that provides users a secure en vironment in e-com­merce transactions and Internet communications.

26 Functional Description

cPCI-3970

The key features the TPM provides ar e:

X Hardware hash accelerator for SHA-1 algorithm.
X Advanced Crypto Engine (ACE) for asymmetric key opera-

tions (up to 2048-bit key length) to make hardware protec­tion.

X Tick counter to extend the time requir ed to decipher th e key.

In addition to an encryption key created by the user, the TPM also
provides security features to protect the TPM itself:

X Over/Under-voltage detection to monitor the system stabil-

ity. If the voltage fluctuates dramatically, this function can
block the data transfer and lock the chip.

X Low/High frequency sensor to detect the IC clock fre-

quency. If the frequency fluctuates dramatically, this func­tion can block the data transfer and lock the chip.

X Reset filter to filter reset signal in order to break the time se t

by tick counter is received.

X Memory encryption to protect memory.
X Physical shield in the IC to protect the die from intruding or

hacking by matching the data transferred on the 2 layer
metal shield on the IC. If the data is not matched, the IC
may be blocked.

The TPM does not support operation below 0ºC. Below this
temperature, the system may not boot. As a result, the

NOTE:

NOTE:

Extended Temperature version cPCI-ET3970 is not available
with TPM.

3.7 Battery

The cPCI-3970 is equipped with a 3.0V "coin cell" lithium battery
for the Real Time Clock (RTC). The battery socket is equipped on
the DB-3CAST/DB-3CF daughter board. The lithium battery must
be replaced with an identical battery or a battery type recom­mended by the manufacturer. A Rayovac BR2032 with -40°C to
+85°C operating temperature support is equipped on board by
default. The coin cell battery can be replaced with a Gold Cap type
by request.

3.8 BIOS Recovery

The cPCI-3970 Series features AMI® EFI BIOS with BIOS recov­ery. If the BIOS becomes corrupted and you are unable to boot
your system, follow the instructions in Section 7.3“BIOS Recovery”
