1.5 Functional Description
Processor Support
The M-342 is an industrial mother bo a rd su pp or tin g t he 2n d ge ne r ation Intel® Core™ processor family (Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3) in
LGA1155 socket. An integrated memory controller supports dual
channel 1066/1333 MHz DDR3 and Intel® HD Graphics is integrated onboard the CPU. The CPU provides a PCI Express x16
for external graphics or expansion. Direct Media Interface (DMI)
and Flexible Display Interface (FDI) provide connectivity to the
Intel® Q67 Express Chipset.
Intel® Q67 Express Chipset
The Intel® BD82Q67 Platform Controller Hub (PCH) combines
with the processor to provide a compact yet powerful 2-chip solution. Direct Media Interface (DMI) is the chip-to-chip connection
between the processor and PCH. Intel® Flexible Display Interface
carries display traffic from the integrated graphics in the processor
to the legacy display connectors in the PCH. The PCH supports all
other required interfaces including PCI Express, SATA 6 Gb/s,
USB 2.0, PCI, LPC, and SPI.
Dual-Channel DDR3 Memory
To meet the requirements of memory-intensive applications, the
M-342 has a dual-channel memory architecture supporting DDR3
1066/1333 MHz DIMMs. The key advantages of DDR3 are the
higher bandwidth and the increase in performance at lower power
than DDR2. DDR3 memory technology meets the requirements of
the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and network application, and
boosts system performance by eliminating bottlenecks.
Gigabit Ethernet
The M-342 utilizes an Intel® 82579LM Gigabit Ethernet PHY and
Intel® 82574L Gigabit Ethernet Controller connected to the PCI-E
bus of the Q67 PCH. Intel® AMT 7.0 (82579LM on LAN1),
Wake-on-LAN and PXE are supported.
6Introduction
M-342
Serial ATA
The M-342 provides two SATA 6 GB/s ports and four SATA
3 GB/s ports. Intel® Rapid Storage Technology supports AHCI
and RAID 0/1/5/10 functionality.
Hardware monitoring
A built-in, proactive hardware monitoring system in the Super I/O
monitors the CPU temperature, system fan speed, and voltage
levels to prevent overheating and/or component damage, effect
timely failure detection, and ensure stable supply of current for
critical components.
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog timer (WDT) monitors system operations based on
user-defined configurations. The WDT can be programmed for different time-out periods, such as from 1 to 255 seconds or from 1 to
255 minutes. The WDT generates a reset signal, then a reset
request, after failure to strobe it within the programmed time
period. A register bit may be enabled to indicate if the watchdog
timer caused the reset event. The WDT register is cleared during
the power-on sequence to enable the operating system to take
appropriate action when the watchdog generates a reboot.
Intel® Active Management Technology
Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT) is hardware-based technology for remotely managing and securing PCs
out-of-band. Intel® AMT includes hardware-based remote management, security, power-management, and remote-configuration
features. Intel® AMT allows remote access to a system when traditional techniques and methods are not available.
