2.2 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 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.

component side (see “CT-31 PCB Layout” on page 14) and
SW3 is located on the solder side behind SW1 (see “Removing
the DB-3610CF Adapter Board” on page 21). When the
switches are set to VGA mode, the VGA signals are available
to J2, and there are only four GPIO signals connected to J2
(GPIO 0~3). When the switches are set to GPIO mode, there
are eight GPIO signals connected to J2 and VGA output to the
RTM is not available. The switches are set to VGA mode by

6.1 Watchdog Timer
This section describes the operation of the CT-31’s watchdog
timer (WDT). The primary function of the WDT is to monitor the
CT-31's operation and to reset the system if a software application
fails to function as programmed. The following WDT functions may
be controlled using a software application:
X enabling and disabling
X reloading timeout value
The CT-31 custom WDT circuit is implemented using the internal I/
O of the ITE SuperIO IT8783 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 tim-
ing out
X Setting the range of the timeout period from 1 second or minute
to maximum 65635 seconds or minutes
X Sending a RESET signal to the system when the watchdog
times out
CT-31
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 CT-31'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 in the ADLINK All-In-One CD. You can find it in the following
directory: X:\cPCI\CT-31\WDT.

7.3.1 CPU Configuration
You can use this screen to select options for the CPU Configuration Settings. Use the up and down < Arrow > keys to select an
item. Use the < + > and < - > keys to change the value of the
selected option. A description of the selected item appears on the
right side of the screen. The settings are described on the following pages. An example of the CPU Configuration screen is shown
below.
Max CPUID Value Limit
When the computer is booted up, the operating system executes the CPUID instruction to identify the processor and its
capabilities. Before it can do so, it must first query the processor to find out the highest input value CPUID recognized. This
determines the kind of basic information CPUID can provide
the operating system. This option allows you to circumvent
problems with older operating systems.
When Enabled, the processor will limit the maximum CPUID
input value to 03h when queried, even if the processor sup-
BIOS Setup 43
ports a higher CPUID input value. When Disabled, the processor will return the actual maximum CPUID input value of the
processor when queried.
Execute-Disable Bit Capability
Intel’s Execute Disable Bit functionality can help prevent certain classes of malicious buffer overflow attacks when combined with a supporting operating system. Exec ute Disable Bit
allows the processor to classify areas in memory where application code can execute and where it cannot. When a malicious worm attempts to insert code in the buffer, the processor
disables code execution, preventing damage and worm propagation.
