1.5 Functional Description
Processor Support
The NuPRO-A40H is PICMG 1.0 Single Board Computer supporting the 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ processor family (Intel®
Core™ i7/i5/i3, Pentium®) in LGA1155 socket. An integrated
memory controller supports dual channel 1333/1600 MHz DDR3
and Intel® HD Graphics is integrated onboard the CPU. Direct
Media Interface (DMI) and Flexible Display Interface (FDI) provide
connectivity to the Intel® H61 Express Chipset.
Intel® H61 Express Chipset
The Intel® BD82H61 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 3 Gb/s,
USB 2.0, LPC, and SPI.
Dual-Channel DDR3 Memory
To meet the requirements of memory-intensive applications, the
NuPRO-A40H has a dual-channel memory architecture supporting
DDR3 1333/1600 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 NuPRO-A40H utilizes dual Intel® I211-AT Gigabit Ethernet
Controllers connected to the PCI-E bus of the H61 PCH.
Wake-on-LAN, PXE, and 9KB Jumbo Frames are supported.
6Introduction
NuPRO-A40H
Serial ATA
The NuPRO-A40H provides four Serial ATA ports with data transfer rates of up to 3.0 GB/s.
Universal Serial Bus (USB 2.0)
The NuPRO-A40H provides 8 USB 2.0 ports supporting transfer
rates up to 480 Mb/s (2x faceplate, 6x onboard pin headers).
Hardware Monitoring - SEMA
Hardware monitoring is provided by ADLINK’s Smart Embedded
Management Agent (SEMA), which provides functionality through
a Board Management Controller and communicates with the
CPU/chipset through the SMBus. The following information is provided under System Management:
X System Information
X Runtime Statistics
X Temperatures
X Power Consumption
X SMC Flags
A graphical user interface program called SEMAGui and command line tool called SEMA Tool are available to allow you to
communicate with SEMA. Please refer to the SEMA Software and
Technical Manuals, available for download on the product page.
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.

5.6 Security Setup
Password Support
Two Levels of Password Protection
Provides both a Supervisor and a User password. If you use
both passwords, the Supervisor password must be set first.
The system can be configured so that all users must enter a
password every time the system boots or when Setup is executed, using either or either the Supervisor password or User
password.
The Supervisor and User passwords activate two different levels of password security. If you select password support, you
are prompted for a one to six character password. Type the
password on the keyboard. The password does not appear on
the screen when typed. Make sure you write it down. If you forget it, you must drain NVRAM and re-configure.
