1.5Functional Description
Processor Support
The NuPRO-E42 is PICMG 1.3 System Host Board supporting the
4th Generation Intel® Core™ processor family (Intel® Core™
i7/i5/i3) in LGA1150 socket. An integrated memory controller supports dual channel 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) pr ovide connectivity to the Intel® Q87
Express Chipset.
Intel® Q87 Express Chipset
The Intel® BD82Q87 Platform Controller Hub (PCH) combines
with the processor to provide a compact yet powerful 2-chip solu-

tion. Direct Media Interface (DMI) is the chip-to-chip connection
between the processor and PCH. I ntel® F lexible Dis play Inte rface
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 3.0, PCI, LPC, and SPI.
Dual-Channel DDR3 Memory
To meet the requirements of memory-intensive applications, the
NuPRO-E42 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-E42 utilizes an Intel® I217LM Gigabit Ethernet PHY
and Intel® I211-AT Gigabit Ethernet Controller connected to the
PCI-E bus of the Q87 PCH. Intel® AMT 9.0 (I21 7LM on LAN1),
Wake-on-LAN and PXE are supported.
Serial ATA
The NuPRO-E42 provides four Serial ATA ports with data transfer
rates of up to 6.0 GB/s. Intel® Rapid Storage Technology supports
AHCI and RAID 0/1/5/10 functionality.
Universal Serial Bus (USB 2.0/3.0)
The NuPRO-E42 provides 4 USB 2.0 ports (backplane) supporting
transfer rates up to 480 Mb/s and 6 USB 3.0 ports (2x on rear
panel, 4x on SHB) supporting transfer rates up to 5Gb/s. All ports
are USB 2.0/1.1 compatible.
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
Introduction 5
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 genera tes a reboot.
Trusted Platform Module
The NuPRO-E42 optionally supports TPM ver. 1.2 (Trusted Platform Module) for secure storage of keys, passwords and digital
certificates. Systems supporting TPM offer improved hardware-based security in numerous applications, such as file and
folder encryption, local password management, S-MIME e-mail,
VPN and PKI authentication and wireless authentication for
802.1x and LEAP.
Intel® Active Management Technology
Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT) is hardware-based technology for remot ely 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 availa b l e.
