1 Introduction
1.1 COM Express™ Concept
COM Express™ is an open industry standard defined specifically for COMs (computer on modules). Its creation makes it possible to smoothly transition from legacy interfaces to the newest technologies available today. COM Express™ modules are available in following form factors:
• Mini 84mm x 55mm
• Compact 95mm x 95mm
• Basic 125mm x 95mm
• Extended 155mm x110mm
The COM Express™ specification 2.1 defines seven different pinout types.
Types Connector Rows PCIe Lanes PCI IDE SATA Ports LAN ports USB 2.0/ USB 3.0 Display Interfaces
Type 1 A-B Up to 6 - 4 1 8 / 0 VGA, LVDS
Type 2 A-B C-D Up to 22 32 bit 1 4 1 8 / 0 VGA, LVDS, PEG/SDVO Type 3 A-B C-D Up to 22 32 bit - 4 3 8 / 0 VGA,LVDS, PEG/SDVO Type 4 A-B C-D Up to 32 1 4 1 8 / 0 VGA,LVDS, PEG/SDVO Type 5 A-B C-D Up to 32 - 4 3 8 / 0 VGA,LVDS, PEG/SDVO Type 6 A-B C-D Up to 24 - 4 1 8 / 4* VGA,LVDS/eDP, PEG, 3x DDI Type 10 A-B Up to 4 - 2 1 8 / 0 LVDS/eDP, 1xDDI
* The SuperSpeed USB ports (USB 3.0) are not in addition to the USB 2.0 ports. Up to 4 of the USB 2.0 ports can support SuperSpeed USB
The conga-TS87 modules use the Type 6 pinout definition and comply with COM Express 2.1 specification. They are equipped with two high performance connectors that ensure stable data throughput.
The COM (computer on module) integrates all the core components and is mounted onto an application specific carrier board. COM modules are legacy-free design (no Super I/O, PS/2 keyboard and mouse) and provide most of the functional requirements for any application. These functions include, but are not limited to a rich complement of contemporary high bandwidth serial interfaces such as PCI Express, Serial ATA, USB 2.0, and Gigabit Ethernet. The Type 6 pinout provides the ability to offer PCI Express, Serial ATA, and LPC options thereby expanding the range of potential peripherals. The robust thermal and mechanical concept, combined with extended power-management capabilities, is perfectly suited for all applications.
Carrier board designers can use as little or as many of the I/O interfaces as deemed necessary. The carrier board can therefore provide all the interface connectors required to attach the system to the application specific peripherals. This versatility allows the designer to create a dense and optimized package, which results in a more reliable product while simplifying system integration. Most importantly, COM Express™

modules are scalable, which means once an application has been created there is the ability to diversify the product range through the use of different performance class or form factor size modules. Simply unplug one module and replace it with another; no redesign is necessary.
1.2 Options Information
The conga-TS87 is currently available in seven variants. This user’s guide describes all of these variants. The tables below show the different configurations available.

2.5 Power Consumption
The power consumption values listed in this document were measured under a controlled environment. The hardware used for testing includes a conga-TS87 module, conga-Cdebug carrier board, CRT monitor, SATA drive, and USB keyboard. The conga-Cdebug is modified so that the 12V input is only routed to the module and all other circuitry on the carrier itself is powered by the 5V input. The SATA drive was powered externally by an ATX power supply so that it does not influence the power consumption value that is measured for the module. The USB keyboard was detached once the module was configured within the OS. All recorded values were averaged over a 30 second time period. Cooling of the module was done by the module specific heatpipe heatspreader and a fan cooled heatsink to measure the power consumption under normal thermal conditions.
The conga-Cdebug originally does not provide 5V standby power. Therefore, an extra 5V_SB connection without any external loads was made. Using this setup, the power consumption of the module in S3 (Standby) mode was measured directly.
Each module was measured while running Windows 7 Professional 64Bit, Hyper Threading enabled, Speed Step enabled, CPU Turbo Mode enabled and Power Plan set to “Power Saver”. This setting ensures that Core™ processors run in LFM (lowest frequency mode) with minimal core voltage during desktop idle. Each module was tested while using two 1GB memory modules. Using different sizes of RAM, as well as one or two memory modules, will cause slight variances in the measured results.
To measure the worst case power consumption the cooling solution was removed and the CPU core temperature was allowed to run up to between 95° and 100°C while running 100% workload with the Power Plan set to “Balanced”. The peak current value was then recorded. This value should be taken into consideration when designing the system’s power supply to ensure that the power supply is sufficient during worst case scenarios.
Power consumption values were recorded during the following stages:
Windows 7 (64 bit)
Desktop Idle (power plan = Power Saver)
100% CPU workload (see note below, power plan = Power Saver)
100% CPU workload at approximately 100°C peak power consumption (power plan = Balanced)
Suspend to RAM. Supply power for S3 mode is 5V.
Note
A software tool was used to stress the CPU to Max Turbo Frequency.

congatec AG offers three cooling solutions for the conga-TS87:
• Active cooling solution (CSA)
• Passive cooling solution (CSP)
• Heatspreader
The dimensions of the cooling solutions are shown below and all measurements are in millimeter. The maximum torque specification for heatspreader screws is 0.3 Nm. Mechanical system assembly mounting shall follow the valid DIN/ISO specifications.

4.3 Heatspreader
The heatspreader acts as a thermal coupling device to the module and is thermally coupled to the CPU via a thermal gap filler. On some modules, it may also be thermally coupled to other heat generating components with the use of additional thermal gap fillers.
Although the heatspreader is the thermal interface where most of the heat generated by the module is dissipated, it is not to be considered as a heatsink. It has been designed as a thermal interface between the module and the application specific thermal solution. The application specific thermal solution may use heatsinks with fans, and/or heat pipes, which can be attached to the heatspreader. Some thermal solutions may also require that the heatspreader is attached directly to the systems chassis thereby using the whole chassis as a heat dissipater.

Note
The gap pad material used on all heatspreaders contains silicon oil that can seep out over time depending on the environmental conditions it is subjected to. For more information about this subject, contact your local congatec sales representative and request the gap pad material manufacturer’s specification.
Caution
congatec cooling solutions are designed for commercial temperature range only (0° to 60°C). Therefore, do not use the congatec cooling solutions in temperatures above 60°C or below 0°C. If an end user’s system operates above 60°C or below 0°C, or is assembled with a non­congatec cooling solution, then the end user must use or design an optimized thermal solution that meets the needs of their application.
For adequate heat dissipation, use the mounting holes on the heatspreader to attach it to the module. Apply thread-locking fluid on the screws if the heatspreader is used in a high-shock and/or vibration environment. To prevent the standoff from stripping or cross-threading, use non-threaded carrier board standoffs to mount threaded heatspreaders.
For applications that require vertically-mounted heatspreader, use only heatspreaders that secure the thermal stacks with fixing post. Without the fixing post feature, the thermal stacks may move.
Also, do not exceed the maximum torque specification for the heatspreader screws. Doing so may damage the module or/and the carrier board.

6.1 Primary Connector Rows A and B
The following subsystems can be found on the primary connector rows A and B.
6.1.1 Serial ATA™ (SATA)
The conga-TS87 provides 4 SATA ports (SATA 0-3) externally via the Intel® QM87 PCH. The SATA ports are based on Serial ATA Specification, Revision 3.0 and support up to 6.0 Gb/s data transfer rates. Variants equipped with Intel® HM86 PCH support 6.0 Gb/s data rates only on SATA ports 0 and 1.
The SATA controller featured on the conga-TS87 operates in three modes in order to support different operating system conditions. The modes of operation are Native IDE, AHCI and RAID mode. Hot-plug is also supported when operating in non-native IDE mode. For more information, refer to section 11 “BIOS Setup Description”.
Note
Only variants equipped with Intel® QM87 PCH support 6.0 Gb/s data rates on all SATA ports. The conga-TS87 variants equipped with Intel® HM86 PCH support 6.0 Gb/s data rates on only SATA ports 0 and 1.
6.1.2 USB 2.0
The conga-TS87 offers two EHCI USB host controllers that support USB high speed signalling via Intel® QM87 PCH. These controllers comply with USB standard 1.1 and 2.0 and offer a total of 8 USB ports via connector rows A and B. Each port is capable of supporting USB 1.1 and 2.0 compliant devices. For more information about how the USB host controllers are routed, see section 8.5.
6.1.3 High Definition Audio (HDA) Interface
The conga-TS87 provides an interface that supports the connection of HDA audio codecs.
6.1.4 Gigabit Ethernet
The conga-TS87 is equipped with a Gigabit Ethernet Controller that is integrated within the Intel® QM87 PCH. This integrated controller is routed to the Intel® l218-LM Phy through the use of the seventh PCI Express lane. The Ethernet interface consists of 4 pairs of low voltage differential pair signals designated from GBE0_MD0± to GBE0_MD3± plus control signals for link activity indicators. These signals can be used to connect to a 10/100/1000 BaseT RJ45 connector with integrated or external isolation magnetics on the carrier board.

Page 31
Note
The GBE0_LINK# output is only active during a 100Mbit or 1Gbit connection. It is not active during a 10Mbit connection. This is a limitation of Ethernet controller since it only has 3 LED outputs, ACT#, LINK100# and LINK1000#. The GBE0_LINK# signal is a logic AND of the GBE0_LINK100# and GBE0_LINK1000# signals on the conga-TS87 module.
The Intel i218 device driver offers a new feature called ULP (Ultra Low Power) mode. In this mode, the Intel i218 driver sets the LED outputs of the controller to tri-state mode. As a result, the ethernet link and activity LEDs may lit when no ethernet cable is connected. This issue is common with older driver versions because the ULP feature is enabled by default and cannot be disabled. In newer driver version, this feature can be disabled.
To have the correct LED status, congatec recommends that you use the latest i218 device driver provided on the website and additionally disable the ULP mode.
6.1.5 LPC Bus
conga-TS87 offers the LPC (Low Pin Count) bus through the Intel® QM87 PCH. There are many devices available for this Intel® defined bus. The LPC bus corresponds approximately to a serialized ISA bus yet with a significantly reduced number of signals. Due to the software compatibility to the ISA bus, I/O extensions such as additional serial ports can be easily implemented on an application specific baseboard using this bus. See section 10.2.1 for more information about the LPC Bus.
6.1.6 I²C Bus Fast Mode
The I²C bus is implemented through the congatec board controller (STMicroelectronics STM32) and accessed through the congatec CGOS driver and API. The controller provides a Fast Mode multi-master I²C Bus that has maximum I²C bandwidth.
6.1.7 PCI Express™
The conga-TS87 offers 8 PCI Express™ lanes via the Intel® QM87 PCH. Seven of these lanes are offered externally on the AB and CD connectors. The remaining lane is used by the onboard Gigabit Ethernet interface. The lanes are Gen 2 compliant and offer support for full 5 Gb/s bandwidth in each direction per x1 link.
The conga-TS87 offers 6 lanes on the AB connector and 1 lane on the CD connector. Default configuration for the lanes on the AB connector is 6x1 link. A 1x4 and 2x1 link configuration is also possible but requires a special/customized BIOS firmware. Contact congatec technical support for more information about this subject.
The PCI Express interface is based on the PCI Express Specification 2.0 with Gen 1 (2.5Gb/s) and Gen 2 (5 Gb/s) speed.

6.1.8 ExpressCard™
The conga-TS87 supports the implementation of ExpressCards, which requires the dedication of one USB port or a x1 PCI Express link for each ExpressCard used.
6.1.9 Graphics Output (VGA/CRT)
The conga-TS87 provides an analog VGA display interface on the AB connector. The VGA display interface is supported on the PCH even though the main display engine is in the processor. The display engine sends display data over to the PCH via the Intel FDI - a bus connecting the processor and the PCH display components.
The analog VGA display interface has a RAM-based Digital-to-Analog Converter (RAMDAC) that transforms the digital data from the graphics engine to analog data for the VGA monitor. The 180 MHz RAMDAC supports up to 1920 x 1200 resolutions at 60 Hz refresh rate.
6.1.10 LVDS/eDP
The conga-TS87 offers an LVDS interface with optional eDP overlay on the AB connector. The LVDS/eDP interface is by default configured to provide LVDS signals. The interface can optionally support eDP (assembly option). For more information, contact congatec technical center.
The single/dual channel LVDS interface is provided through an integrated eDP to LVDS bridge device. The eDP to LVDS bridge processes incoming DisplayPort stream and converts the DP protocol to LVDS, before transmitting the processed stream in LVDS format. The bridge supports single and dual channel signalling with color depths of 18 bits or 24 bits per pixel and pixel clock frequency up to 112 MHz.
Note
The LVDS/eDP interface supports either LVDS or eDP signals. Both interfaces are not supported simultaneously.
6.1.11 General Purpose Serial Interface
Two TTL compatible two wire ports are available on Type 6 COM Express modules. These pins are designated SER0_TX, SER0_RX, SER1_TX and SER1_RX. Data out of the module is on the _TX pins. Hardware handshaking and hardware flow control are not supported. The module asynchronous serial ports are intended for general purpose use and for use with debugging software that make use of the “console redirect” features available in many operating systems.
Note
The conga-TS87 supports two UART interfaces on revision B.0 and later. These interfaces are provided on the AB connecter via single-chip USB to dual UART bridge. They do not support legacy COM port emulation and console redirection.

6.1.12 Power Control
PWR_OK
Power OK from main power supply or carrier board voltage regulator circuitry. A high value indicates that the power is good and the module can start its onboard power sequencing.
Carrier board hardware must drive this signal low until all power rails and clocks are stable. Releasing PWR_OK too early or not driving it low at all can cause numerous boot up problems. It is a good design practice to delay the PWR_OK signal a little (typically 100ms) after all carrier board power rails are up, to ensure a stable system.
A sample screenshot is shown below:
Note
The module is kept in reset as long as the PWR_OK is driven by carrier board hardware.

The voltage divider ensures that the input complies with 3.3V CMOS characteristic and also allows for carrier board designs that are not driving PWR_OK. Although the PWR_OK input is not mandatory for the onboard power-up sequencing, it is strongly recommended that the carrier board hardware drives the signal low until it is safe to let the module boot-up.
When considering the above shown voltage divider circuitry and the transistor stage, the voltage measured at the PWR_OK input pin may be only around 0.8V when the 12V is applied to the module. Actively driving PWR_OK high is compliant to the COM Express specification but this can cause back driving. Therefore, congatec recommends driving the PWR_OK low to keep the module in reset and tri-state PWR_OK when the carrier board hardware is ready to boot.
The three typical usage scenarios for a carrier board design are:
Connect PWR_OK to the “power good” signal of an ATX type power supply.
Connect PWR_OK to the last voltage regulator in the chain on the carrier board.
Simply pull PWR_OK with a 1k resistor to the carrier board 3.3V power rail.
With this solution, it must be ensured that by the time the 3.3V is up, all carrier board hardware is fully powered and all clocks are stable.

The conga-TS87 provides support for controlling ATX-style power supplies. When not using an ATX power supply then the conga-TS87’s pins SUS_S3/PS_ON, 5V_SB, and PWRBTN# should be left unconnected.
SUS_S3#/PS_ON#
The SUS_S3#/PS_ON# (pin A15 on the A-B connector) signal is an active-low output that can be used to turn on the main outputs of an ATX­style power supply. In order to accomplish this the signal must be inverted with an inverter/transistor that is supplied by standby voltage and is located on the carrier board.
PWRBTN#
When using ATX-style power supplies PWRBTN# (pin B12 on the A-B connector) is used to connect to a momentary-contact, active-low debounced push-button input while the other terminal on the push-button must be connected to ground. This signal is internally pulled up to 3V_SB using a 10k resistor. When PWRBTN# is asserted it indicates that an operator wants to turn the power on or off. The response to this signal from the system may vary as a result of modifications made in BIOS settings or by system software.
Power Supply Implementation Guidelines
12 volt input power is the sole operational power source for the conga-TS87. The remaining necessary voltages are internally generated on the module using onboard voltage regulators. A carrier board designer should be aware of the following important information when designing a power supply for a conga-TS87 application:
It has also been noticed that on some occasions, problems occur when using a 12V power supply that produces non monotonic voltage when powered up. The problem is that some internal circuits on the module (e.g. clock-generator chips) will generate their own reset signals when the supply voltage exceeds a certain voltage threshold. A voltage dip after passing this threshold may lead to these circuits becoming confused resulting in a malfunction. It must be mentioned that this problem is quite rare but has been observed in some mobile power supply applications. The best way to ensure that this problem is not encountered is to observe the power supply rise waveform through the use of an oscilloscope to determine if the rise is indeed monotonic and does not have any dips. This should be done during the power supply qualification phase therefore ensuring that the above mentioned problem doesn’t arise in the application. For more information about this issue visit www.formfactors.org and view page 25 figure 7 of the document “ATX12V Power Supply Design Guide V2.2”.

7 Additional Features
7.1 congatec Board Controller (cBC)
The conga-TS87 is equipped with a STMicroelectronics STM32 microcontroller. This onboard microcontroller plays an important role for most of the congatec embedded/industrial PC features. It fully isolates some of the embedded features such as system monitoring or the I²C bus from the x86 core architecture, which results in higher embedded feature performance and more reliability, even when the x86 processor is in a low power mode. It also ensures that the congatec embedded feature set is fully compatible amongst all congatec modules.
7.2 Board Information
The cBC provides a rich data-set of manufacturing and board information such as serial number, EAN number, hardware and firmware revisions, and so on. It also keeps track of dynamically changing data like runtime meter and boot counter.
7.3 Watchdog
The conga-TS87 is equipped with a multi stage watchdog solution that is triggered by software. The COM Express™ Specification does not provide support for external hardware triggering of the Watchdog, which means the conga-TS87 does not support external hardware triggering. For more information about the Watchdog feature, see the BIOS setup description in section 11.4.2 of this document and application note AN3_Watchdog.pdf on the congatec AG website at www.congatec.com.
Note
The conga-TS87 module does not support the watchdog NMI mode.
7.4 I2C Bus
The conga-TS87 supports I2C bus. Thanks to the I2C host controller in the cBC, the I2C bus is multimaster capable and runs at fast mode.
7.5 Power Loss Control
The cBC has full control of the power-up of the module and therefore can be used to specify the behaviour of the system after a AC power loss condition. Supported modes are “Always On”, “Remain Off” and “Last State”.

7.6 OEM BIOS Customization
The conga-TS87 is equipped with congatec Embedded BIOS, which is based on American Megatrends Inc. Aptio UEFI firmware. The congatec Embedded BIOS allows system designers to modify the BIOS. For more information about customizing the congatec Embedded BIOS, refer to the congatec System Utility user’s guide, which is called CGUTLm1x.pdf and can be found on the congatec website at www.congatec.com or contact technical support.
The customization features supported are described below:
7.6.1 OEM Default Settings
This feature allows system designers to create and store their own BIOS default configuration. Customized BIOS development by congatec for OEM default settings is no longer necessary because customers can easily perform this configuration by themselves using the congatec system utility CGUTIL. See congatec application note AN8_Create_OEM_Default_Map.pdf on the congatec website for details on how to add OEM default settings to the congatec Embedded BIOS.
7.6.2 OEM Boot Logo
This feature allows system designers to replace the standard text output displayed during POST with their own BIOS boot logo. Customized BIOS development by congatec for OEM Boot Logo is no longer necessary because customers can easily perform this configuration by themselves using the congatec system utility CGUTIL. See congatec application note AN8_Create_And_Add_Bootlogo.pdf on the congatec website for details on how to add OEM boot logo to the congatec Embedded BIOS.
7.6.3 OEM POST Logo
This feature allows system designers to replace the congatec POST logo displayed in the upper left corner of the screen during BIOS POST with their own BIOS POST logo. Use the congatec system utility CGUTIL 1.5.4 or later to replace/add the OEM POST logo.
7.6.4 OEM BIOS Code/Data
With the congatec embedded BIOS it is possible for system designers to add their own code to the BIOS POST process. The congatec Embedded BIOS first calls the OEM code before handing over control to the OS loader.
Except for custom specific code, this feature can also be used to support Win XP SLP installation, Window 7 SLIC table (OA2.0), Windows 8 OEM activation (OA3.0), verb tables for HDA codecs, PCI/PCIe opROMs, bootloaders, rare graphic modes and Super I/O controller initialization.

Note
The OEM BIOS code of the new UEFI based firmware is only called when the CSM (Compatibility Support Module) is enabled in the BIOS setup menu. Contact congatec technical support for more information on how to add OEM code.
7.6.5 OEM DXE Driver
This feature allows designers to add their own UEFI DXE driver to the congatec embedded BIOS. Contact congatec technical support for more information on how to add an OEM DXE driver.
7.7 congatec Battery Management Interface
In order to facilitate the development of battery powered mobile systems based on embedded modules, congatec AG has defined an interface for the exchange of data between a CPU module (using an ACPI operating system) and a Smart Battery system. A system developed according to the congatec Battery Management Interface Specification can provide the battery management functions supported by an ACPI capable operating system (e.g. charge state of the battery, information about the battery, alarms/events for certain battery states, ...) without the need for any additional modifications to the system BIOS.
The conga-TS87 BIOS fully supports this interface. For more information about this subject visit the congatec website and view the following documents:
congatec Battery Management Interface Specification
Battery System Design Guide
conga-SBM3 User’s Guide
7.8 API Support (CGOS)
In order to benefit from the above mentioned non-industry standard feature set, congatec provides an API that allows application software developers to easily integrate all these features into their code. The CGOS API (congatec Operating System Application Programming Interface) is the congatec proprietary API that is available for all commonly used Operating Systems such as Win32, Win64, Win CE, Linux. The architecture of the CGOS API driver provides the ability to write application software that runs unmodified on all congatec CPU modules. All the hardware related code is contained within the congatec embedded BIOS on the module. See section 1.1 of the CGOS API software developers guide, which is available on the congatec website .

8.2.2 Thermal Monitor and Catastrophic Thermal Protection
Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3 and Celeron® processors have a thermal monitor feature that helps to control the processor temperature. The integrated TCC (Thermal Control Circuit) activates if the processor silicon reaches its maximum operating temperature. The activation temperature that the
®
Intel
Thermal Monitor uses to activate the TCC, can be slightly modified via TCC Activation Offset in BIOS setup submenu “CPU submenu”.
The Thermal Monitor can control the processor temperature through the use of two different methods defined as TM1 and TM2. TM1 method consists of the modulation (starting and stopping) of the processor clocks at a 50% duty cycle. The TM2 method initiates an Enhanced Intel Speedstep transition to the lowest performance state once the processor silicon reaches the maximum operating temperature.
Note
The maximum operating temperature for Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3 and Celeron® processors is 100°C.
To ensure that the TCC is active for only short periods of time, thus reducing the impact on processor performance to a minimum, it is necessary to have a properly designed thermal solution. The Intel you with more information about this subject.
®
THERMTRIP# signal is used by Intel
’s Core™ i7/i5/i3 and Celeron® processors for catastrophic thermal protection. If the processor’s silicon reaches a temperature of approximately 125°C then the processor signal THERMTRIP# will go active and the system will automatically shut down to prevent any damage to the processor as a result of overheating. The THERMTRIP# signal activation is completely independent from processor activity and therefore does not produce any bus cycles.
Note
In order for THERMTRIP# to be able to automatically switch off the system, it is necessary to use an ATX style power supply.
8.2.3 Processor Performance Control
Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3 and Celeron is referred to as Enhanced Intel® SpeedStep® technology (EIST). Operating systems that support performance control take advantage of microprocessors that use several different performance states in order to efficiently operate the processor when it’s not being fully used. The operating system will determine the necessary performance state that the processor should run at so that the optimal balance between performance and power consumption can be achieved during runtime.
The Windows family of operating systems links its processor performance control policy to the power scheme setting. You must ensure that the power scheme setting you choose has the ability to support Enhanced Intel
®
processors found on the conga-TS87 run at different voltage/frequency states (performance states), which

8.2.4 Intel® 64 Architecture
The formerly known Intel® Extended Memory 64 Technology is an enhancement to Intel®’s IA-32 architecture. Intel® 64 is only available on Intel® Core™ i7/i5/i3 and Celeron
®
processors and is designed to run with newly written 64-bit code and access more than 4GB of memory. Processors with Intel® 64 architecture support 64-bit-capable operating systems from Microsoft, Red Hat and SuSE. Processors running in legacy mode remain fully compatible with today’s existing 32-bit applications and operating systems
®
Platforms with Intel
64 can be run in three basic ways :
1. Legacy Mode: 32-bit operating system and 32-bit applications. In this mode no software changes are required, however the benefits of
Intel® 64 are not utilized.
2. Compatibility Mode: 64-bit operating system and 32-bit applications. This mode requires all device drivers to be 64-bit. The operating
system will see the 64-bit extensions but the 32-bit application will not. Existing 32-bit applications do not need to be recompiled and may or may not benefit from the 64-bit extensions. The application will likely need to be re-certified by the vendor to run on the new 64­bit extended operating system.
3. 64-bit Mode: 64-bit operating system and 64-bit applications. This usage requires 64-bit device drivers. It also requires applications to be
modified for 64-bit operation and then recompiled and validated.
Intel® 64 provides support for:
64-bit flat virtual address space
64-bit pointers
64-bit wide general purpose registers
64-bit integer support
Up to one Terabyte (TB) of platform address space

Note
congatec does not offer virtual machine monitor (VMM) software. All VMM software support questions and queries should be directed to the VMM software vendor and not congatec technical support.
8.2.6 Thermal Management
ACPI is responsible for allowing the operating system to play an important part in the system’s thermal management. This results in the operating system having the ability to take control of the operating environment by implementing cooling decisions according to the demands put on the CPU by the application.
The conga-TS87 supports Critical Trip Point. This cooling policy ensures that the operating system shuts down properly if the temperature in the thermal zone reaches a critical point, in order to prevent damage to the system as a result of high temperatures. Use the “critical trip point” setup node in the BIOS setup program to determine the temperature threshold that the operating system will use to shut down the system.
Note
The end user must determine the cooling preferences for the system by using the setup nodes in the BIOS setup program to establish the appropriate trip points.

8.3 ACPI Suspend Modes and Resume Events
conga-TS87 supports S3 (STR= Suspend to RAM). For more information about S3 wake events, see section 11.4.5 “ACPI Configuration Submenu”.
S4 (Suspend to Disk) is not supported by the BIOS (S4_BIOS) but it is supported by the following operating systems (S4_OS= Hibernate):
Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Linux.
This table lists the “Wake Events” that resume the system from S3 unless otherwise stated in the “Conditions/Remarks” column:
Wake Event Power Button Onboard LAN Event SMBALERT# PCI Express WAKE# PME#
USB Mouse/Keyboard Event
RTC Alarm Watchdog Power Button
Conditions/Remarks
Wakes unconditionally from S3-S5.
Device driver must be configured for Wake On LAN support.
Wakes unconditionally from S3-S5.
Wakes unconditionally from S3-S5.
Activate the wake up capabilities of a PCI device using Windows Device Manager configuration options for this device OR set Resume On PME# to Enabled in the Power setup menu.
When Standby mode is set to S3, USB hardware must be powered by standby power source. Set USB Device Wakeup from S3/S4 to ENABLED in the ACPI setup menu (if setup node is available in BIOS setup program). In Device Manager look for the keyboard/mouse devices. Go to the Power Management tab and check ‘Allow this device to bring the computer out of standby’.
Activate and configure Resume On RTC Alarm in the Power setup menu. Only available in S5.
Wakes unconditionally from S3-S5.
Event
8.4 Low Voltage Memory (DDR3L)
The Haswell processor featured on the conga-TS87 supports low voltage system memory interface. The memory interface I/O voltage is 1.35V and supports non-ECC, unbuffered DDR3L SO-DIMMs. With this low voltage system memory interface on the processor, the conga-TS87 offers a system optimized for lowest possible power consumption. The reduction in power consumption due to lower voltage subsequently reduces the heat generated.
Note
The usage of DDR3@1.5V SO-DIUM modules may affect the stability or boot-up of the conga-TS87. Therefore use only non-ECC, unbuffered DDR3L SO-DIMM memory modules up to 1600 MT/s on the conga-TS87.

8.5 USB 2.0 EHCI Host Controller Support
The 8 available USB ports are provided by two USB 2.0 Rate Matching Hubs (RMH) integrated within the Intel® QM87 PCH . Each EHCI controller has one hub connected to it as shown below. The Hubs convert low and full-speed traffic into high-speed traffic. When the RMHs are enabled, they will appear to software like an external hub is connected to Port 0 of each EHCI controller. In addition, port 1 of each of the RMHs is muxed with Port 1 of the EHCI controllers and is able to bypass the RMH for use as the Debug Port. The hub operates like any USB 2.0 Discrete Hub and will consume one tier of hubs allowed by the USB 2.0 Spec. A maximum of four additional non-root hubs can be supported on any of the PCH USB Ports. The RMH will report the following Vendor ID = 8087h and Product ID = 0024h.

9 Signal Descriptions and Pinout Tables
The following section describes the signals found on COM Express™ Type VI connectors used for congatec AG modules. The pinout of the modules complies with COM Express Type 6 Rev. 2.1.
Table 3 describes the terminology used in this section for the Signal Description tables. The PU/PD column indicates if a COM Express™ module pull-up or pull-down resistor has been used, if the field entry area in this column for the signal is empty, then no pull-up or pull-down resistor has been implemented by congatec.
The “#” symbol at the end of the signal name indicates that the active or asserted state occurs when the signal is at a low voltage level. When “#” is not present, the signal is asserted when at a high voltage level.
Note
The Signal Description tables do not list internal pull-ups or pull-downs implemented by the chip vendors, only pull-ups or pull-downs implemented by congatec are listed. For information about the internal pull-ups or pull-downs implemented by the chip vendors, refer to the respective chip’s datasheet.

Caution
The signals listed in the table above are used as chipset configuration straps during system reset. In this condition (during reset), they are inputs that are pulled to the correct state by either COM Express™ internally implemented resistors or chipset internally implemented resistors that are located on the module. No external DC loads or external pull-up or pull-down resistors should change the configuration of the signals listed in the above table. External resistors may override the internal strap states and cause the COM Express™ module to malfunction and/ or cause irreparable damage to the module.

10 System Resources
10.1 I/O Address Assignment
The I/O address assignment of the conga-TS87 module is functionally identical with a standard PC/AT.
Note
The BIOS assigns PCI and PCI Express I/O resources from FFF0h downwards. Non PnP/PCI/PCI Express compliant devices must not consume I/O resources in that area.
10.1.1 LPC Bus
On the conga-TS87, the PCI Express Bus acts as the subtractive decoding agent. All I/O cycles that are not positively decoded are forwarded to the PCI Bus not the LPC Bus. Only specified I/O ranges are forwarded to the LPC Bus. In the congatec Embedded BIOS, the following I/O address ranges are sent to the LPC Bus:
2Eh – 2Fh 4Eh – 4Fh
60h, 64h
A00 – BFFh
Parts of these ranges are not available if a Super I/O is used on the carrier board. If a Super I/O is not implemented on the carrier board, then this range is available for customer use. If you require additional LPC Bus resources other than those mentioned above, or more information about this subject, contact congatec technical support for assistance.

Select the timeout value for the POST watchdog.
The watchdog is only active during the power-on-self-test of the system and provides a facility to prevent errors during boot up by performing a reset.
Select whether the POST watchdog should be stopped during the popup boot selection menu or while waiting for setup password insertion.
Selects the operating mode of the runtime watchdog. This watchdog will be initialized just before the operating system starts booting. If set to ‘One-time Trigger’ the watchdog will be disabled after the first trigger. If set to ‘Single Event’, every stage will be executed only once, then the watchdog will be disabled. If set to ‘Repeated Event’ the last stage will be executed repeatedly until a reset occurs.
Select the delay time before the runtime watchdog becomes active. This ensures that an operating system has enough time to load.

Note
In ACPI mode, it is not possible for a “Watchdog ACPI Event” handler to directly restart or shutdown the OS. For this reason the congatec BIOS will do one of the following:
For Shutdown: An over temperature notification is executed. This causes the OS to shut down in an orderly fashion.
For Restart: An ACPI fatal error is reported to the OS.
Additionally, the conga-TS87 module does not support the watchdog NMI mode.

Enable hardware fan speed control. Independent from any operating system the fan will be turned on once a certain start temperature is reached and linearly ramped up to the defined maximum speed within the given temperature range.
Select which temperature input is used for the automatic fan speed control.
At this temperature the fan will be turned on at the defined minimum fan speed.
Within this temperature range the fan will ramp up to the defined maximum fan speed.
Select minimum/start fan speed to be set when the start temperature of the control slope is reached.
Select maximum/end fan speed to be ramped up to until the end temperature of the control slope is reached.
If enabled, the fan will always run at least at the selected minimum speed, even if the control temperature is below the fan control start temperature. This is to ensure a minimum air flow all the time.
