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 T echnology
(Core™ i7-2710QE only)
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 t he th e rma l ca pacity as soc i at ed wit h
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 d yn ami c and d epe ndent 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 architectural state with
its own set of general-purpose registers and control reg iste rs. 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 pr evious versions of Windows operating systems.

3.5Battery
The cPCI-6625 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

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.
