ESD Precautions

Computer boards have integrated circuits sensitive to static electricity. To prevent chipsets from electrostatic discharge damage, please take care of the following jobs with precautions:

 Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static packaging until you are

ready to install them.

 Before holding the board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted portion of the system

unit chassis for a few seconds. It discharges static electricity from your body.

 Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic component stores, when

handling boards and components.

2.3 Installing Thermal Solution

For thermal dissipation, a heatsink enables the CEM510’s components to dissipate heat efficiently. All heat generating components are thermally conducted to the heatsink in order to avoid hot spots. Below images illustrate how to install the heatsink.

1. There is a protective plastic covering on the thermal pads. This must be removed before

the heatsink can be mounted.

2. Each heatsink is designed for a specific CEM module. The thermal pads on the heatsink

are designed to make contact with the necessary components on the CEM module. When mounting the heatsink you must make sure that the thermal pads on the heatsink make complete contact (no space between thermal pad and component) with the corresponding components on the CEM module. This is especially critical for CEM modules that have higher CPU speeds (for example 1.0GHz or more) to ensure that the heatsink acts as a proper thermal interface for cooling solutions.

3. This CPU module has six assembly holes for installing heatsink plate. Use the six screws

to secure the heatsink plate to the CEM510. Be careful not to over-tighten the screws.

2.4 Switch Settings

Properly configure switch settings on the CEM510 to meet your application purpose. Below you can find a summary table of all switches and onboard default settings.

Note

Once the default switch setting needs to be changed, please do it under power-off condition.

Switch

Description

Setting

Auto Power On Default: Disable

SW1-1 OFF

Restore BIOS Optimal Defaults Default: Normal Operation

SW1-2 OFF

SW2

PCI-Express Bifurcation Setting Default: One x16 PCI-Express

SW1-1 OFF, SW1-2 OFF

2.4.1 Auto Power On and Restore BIOS Optimal Defaults (SW1)

If dip1 of SW1 (SW1-1) is enabled for power input, the system will be automatically power on without pressing soft power button. If this switch is disabled for power input, it is necessary to manually press soft power button to power on the system.

The dip2 of SW1 (SW1-2) is for restoring BIOS default status. Flip SW1-2 to ON position for a few seconds then flip it back to OFF position. Doing this procedure can restore BIOS optimal defaults.

2.4.2 PCI-Express Bifurcation Setting (SW2)

The SW2 is for PCI-Express bifurcation setting. See table below for detailed information.

Hardware Description

3.1 Microprocessor

The CEM510 supports Intel® CoreTM i7/ i5/ i3 processors, which enables your system to operate under Windows® 10 and Linux environments. The system performance depends on the microprocessor. You must install the heatsink or cooler carefully and properly to prevent damage.

3.2 BIOS

The CEM510 uses AMI Plug and Play BIOS with a single 128Mbit SPI Flash.

3.3 System Memory

The CEM510 supports two 260-pin DDR4 2133MHz SO-DIMM sockets for maximum memory capacity up to 32GB DDR4 SDRAMs (CM238 supports ECC memory). The memory module comes in sizes of 4GB, 8GB and 16GB.

AMI BIOS Setup Utility

The AMI UEFI BIOS provides users with a built-in setup program to modify basic system configuration. All configured parameters are stored in a flash chip to save the setup information whenever the power is turned off. This chapter provides users with detailed description about how to set up basic system configuration through the AMI BIOS setup utility.

4.1 Starting

To enter the setup screens, follow the steps below:

1. Turn on the computer and press the <Del> key immediately.

2. After you press the <Del> key, the main BIOS setup menu displays. You can access the

other setup screens from the main BIOS setup menu, such as the Advanced and Chipset menus.

Note

If your computer cannot boot after making and saving system changes with BIOS setup, you can restore BIOS optimal defaults by setting SW1-2 (see section 2.4.1).

It is strongly recommended that you should avoid changing the chipset’s defaults. Both AMI and your system manufacturer have carefully set up these defaults that provide the best performance and reliability.

4.2 Navigation Keys

The BIOS setup/utility uses a key-based navigation system called hot keys. Most of the BIOS setup utility hot keys can be used at any time during the setup navigation process. These keys include <F1>, <F2>, <Enter>, <ESC>, <Arrow> keys, and so on.

Note

Some of the navigation keys differ from one screen to another.

Watchdog Timer and GPIO 53

Appendix A

Watchdog Timer and GPIO

A.1 About Watchdog Timer

After the system stops working for a while, it can be auto-reset by the watchdog timer. The integrated watchdog timer can be set up in the system reset mode by program.

Assembly sample code :

mov dx,fa10 ; 5 seconds (Maximum is 65535 seconds; fill in

; 0xFA10 and 0xFA11 register, ex: 0xFA11=0x01,

; 0xFA10=0x68 means 360 seconds) mov al,05 out dx,al

mov dx,fa12 ; Enable WDT mov al,01 out dx,al

A.2 About GPIO

The onboard GPIO or digital I/O has 8 bits (DIO0~7). Each bit can be set to function as input or output by software programming. In default, all pins are pulled high with +3.3V level (according to main power). The BIOS default settings are 4 inputs and 4 outputs where all of these pins are set to 1.

Assembly sample code :

mov dx,fa18 ; Set DIO 0-7 to Output mov al,00 out dx,al

mov dx,fa19 ; Set DIO 4-7 to High mov al,f0 out dx,al

mov dx,fa18 ; Set DIO 0-7 to Input mov al,ff out dx,al

mov dx,fa19 ; Get DIO 0-7 status in al,dx

mov dx,fa18 ; Set DIO 0-4 to Input, 5-7 to Output mov al,1f ; al = 1F => 00011111 out dx,al

mov dx,fa19 ; Set DIO 6 to High mov al,40 ; al = 40 => 01000000 out dx,al

in al,dx ; Get DIO 0-7 status
