1.1Introduction
The cPCI-6620 is a highly integrated 6U CompactPCI blade in
dual slot width (8HP) form factor. Its design is based on the 2nd
Generation Intel® Core™ i7 and Celeron® processors in
FCBGA1023 package with Mobile Intel® HM65 Express Chipset.
The cPCI-6620 is a value 6U CompactPCI blade that offers integrated graphics, I/O bandwidth, asset management capabilities,
data transfer speed and reliability.
The cPCI-6620 supports dual-channel unbuffered
DDR3-1066/1333 memory up to a maximum capacity of 16GB.
Graphics is integrated in the processor and output is provided
through one DVI-D port on the front panel.
The cPCI-6620 offers versatile I/O such as four Gigabit Ethernet
ports, two DB-9 COM ports, four Type-A USB 2.0 ports, and one
DVI-D port on the front panel. The blade supports a 32-bit/33MHz
CompactPCI interface and integrates a Super I/O IT8718F to monitor CPU and system temperature, DC voltages and provide a
watchdog timer.
cPCI-6620
Storage features of the cPCI-6620 include a SATA 6 Gb/s direct
connector interface with mounting space for a 2.5" HDD/SSD.

2.3Power 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 should be able to provide at
least three times as much power as the entire system requires.
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.

3.3Intel® 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 forshort 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.
3.4Intel® 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.

3.5Battery
The cPCI-6620 is equipped with a 3.0V "coin cell" lithium battery
for the Real Time Clock (RTC). The lithium battery must be
replaced with an identical battery or a battery type recommended
by the manufacturer. A Rayovac BR2032 is equipped on board by

Terminal Type
VT-UTF8 is the preferred terminal type for out-of-band management. The next best choice is VT100+ and then VT100.
Options: VT100, VT100+, VT-UTF8, ASNI.

for console redirection. Options: 115200, 57600, 19200, 9600.
Data Bits
Select the data bits you want the serial port to use for console
redirection. Set this value to 7 or 8.
Parity
Set this option to select Parity for console redirection. The settings for this value are None, Even, Odd, Mark, Space.
Stop B its
Stop bits indicate the end of a serial data packet. (A start bit
indicates the beginning). The standard setting is 1 stop bit.
BIOS Setup Utility 51
Page 64
Communication with slow devices may require more than 1
stop bit. Set this value to 1 or 2.
Flow Control
Set this option to select Flow Control for console redirection.
The settings for this value are Noneand Hardware RTS/CTS.
Flow control can prevent da ta loss from buffer overflow. When
sending data, if the receiving buffers are full, a 'stop' signal can
be sent to stop the data flow. Once the buffers are empty, a
'start' signal can be sent to re-star t the flow. Hardware flow control uses two wires to send start/stop signals. Software flow
control uses start/stop ASCII chars, which slows down the data
flow and can be problematic if binary data is being sent.
Recorder Mode
When enabled, only text will be sent. This is to capture terminal
data.
Resolution 100x31
Enables or disables extended terminal resolution.
Legacy OS Redirection Resolution
In legacy OSes, the number of rows and columns supported by
redirection. The settings for this value are: 80x24, 80x25.
