1.1 Introduction

The cPCI-6965 Series is a highly integrated 6U CompactPCI SBC
in single slot (4HP) or dual slot (8HP) width form factor. It has been
designed to support the Intel® Core™ 2 Duo and Celero n® M pro­cessors in 478-pin Micro-FCPGA. T he cPCI-6965 is based on the
Mobile Intel® GME965 Express chipset which offers outstanding
graphics and I/O bandwidth, asset management capabilities, stor­age speed and reliability.

The cPCI-6965 supports dual-channel non-ECC 533/667 MHz
DDR2 memory with a maximum capacity of up to 4GB, 533/800
MHz Front-Side Bus (FSB), and Mobile Intel® Graphics Media
Accelerator X3100 (Intel® GMA X3100). The integrated graphics
support dual independent displays through two DVI outputs on the
front panel.

The cPCI-6965 offers versatile I/O ports such as two Gigabit
Ethernet ports, two RS-232/422/485/485+ selectable serial ports,
four USB 2.0 ports, PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse, and parallel port on
the front panel. Additional I/O can be routed to available Rear
Transition Modules (RTM), including USB, VGA, SCSI, Floppy
port, Mic-in, Line-out, and SATA. The board also supports one
32-bit/33MHz CompactPCI interface and a PMC expansion slot.

Notes:

1. ADLINK-certified thermal design. The thermal performance is
dependent on the chassis cooling design. Forced airflow with
16CFM is required. Temperature limit of optional mass storage
devices may affect the thermal specification.

2. The hard drive limits the operational vibration. When applica­tion requires higher specification for anti-vibration, it is recom­mended to use flash disk such as CF or USB flash disk
module.

Specifications are subject to change without prior notice.

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 an d
it includes both the power supply and the backplane tolerance.

7.1 Watchdog Timer

This section describes the operation of the cPCI-6965’s watchdog
timer (WDT). The primary function of the WDT is to monitor the
cPCI-6965's operation and to reset the system if a software appli­cation fails to function as prog rammed. The following WDT func­tions may be controlled using a software application:

X enabling and disabling
X reloading timeout value

The cPCI-6965 custom WDT circuit is implemented using the
internal IO of the ITE SuperIO IT8712F which is at 2Eh of LPC.
The basic functions of the WDT include:

X Starting the timer countdown
X Enabling or disabling WDT
X Enabling or disabling WDT countdown LED ON
X Reloading the timeout value to keep the watchdog from timing

out

X Setting the range of the timeout period from 1 to 15300 seconds
X Sending a RESET signal to the system when the watchdog

times out

cPCI-6965

Using the Watchdog in an Application

The following section describes using the WDT functions in an
application. The WDT reset function is explained in the previous
section. This can be controlled through the registers in the
cPCI-6965's SuperIO.

An application using the reset fe ature enab les the watch dog func ­tion, sets the count-down period, and reloads the timeout value
periodically to keep it from resetting the system. If the timer count­down value is not reloaded, the watchdog resets the system hard­ware after its counter reaches zero.

For a detailed programming sample, refer to the sample code pro­vided on the ADLINK All-In-One CD. You can find it in the following
directory: X:\cPCI\cPCI-6965\WDT.

Parallel Port Mode

This option specifies the parallel port mode.

X Normal: Set this value to allow the standard parallel port

mode to be used.

X EPP: The parallel port can be used with devices that adhere

to the Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) specification. EPP
uses the existing parallel port signals to provide asymmetric
bi-directional data transfer driven by the host device.

X ECP: The parallel port can be used with devices that adhere

to the Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) specification. ECP
uses the DMA protocol to achieve data transfer rates up to

2.5 Megabits per second. ECP provides symmetric Bi-direc­tional communication.

X EPP+ECP: Allow the parallel port to support both the ECP

and EPP modes simultaneously.

Parallel Port IRQ

This option specifies the IRQ used by the parallel port.

X IRQ5: Set this value to allow the serial port to use

Interrupt 5.

X IRQ7: Set this value to allow the serial port to use

Interrupt 7. The majority of parallel ports on computer sys­tems use IRQ7 and I/O Port 378H as the standard setting.
