CPGx Series CyberResearch® CPU Cards

1.1 CPGx Series CPU Card Overview

The PICMG 1.0 form factor CPGx Series CPU card with Intel® Pentium® D processor

platform is fully equipped with the latest technology and advanced multi-mode I/Os. The

1.1.1 CPGx Series Model Variations

The CPGx Series has two model variations shown in Table 1-1:.

Model Name SATA II Digital Video Interface (DVI)

CPGT Series Fouro None

CPGU Series Four One

Table 1-1: CPGx Series Model Variations

1.1.2 CPGx Series CPU Card Applications

The CPGx Series CPU cards have been designed for use in industrial applications where

board expansion is critical and operational reliability is essential.

1.1.3 CPGx Series CPU Card Benefits

Some of the CPGx Series CPU card benefits include:

 Dual-core Intel

®

processor support

o Two physical cores in a package share the system load
o Each core has its own L1 cache and shares the L2 cache to enhance the

processing speed

o High performance levels especially in 3D graphic and multimedia

application

The cooling fan connector provides a 12V, 500mA current to a CPU cooling fan. The

connector has a "rotation" pin to get rotation signals from fans and notify the system so the

system BIOS can recognize the fan speed. Please note that only specified fans can issue

the rotation signals.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components,

ing the CPGx cards. (Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.) It is therefore

includ

critical that whenever the

following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to.

 Wear an anti-static wrist band: Wearing a simple anti-static wrist band can

help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.

 Self-grounding: Before handling the board, touch any grounded conducting

material. During the time the board is handled, frequently touch any

conducting materials that are connected to the ground.

WARNING:

When handling the CPU, only hold it on the sides. DO NOT touch the pins

at the bottom of the CPU.

To install Socket LGA775 CPU onto the CPGx Series, follow the steps below:

Step 1: Remove the protective cover. Remove the black protective cover by prying it

off the load plate. To remove the protective cover, locate the “REMOVE” sign

and use the fingernail to pry the protective cover off. (See Figure 4-2)

Step 2: Open the socket. Disengage the load lever by pressing the lever down and

slightly outward to clear the retention tab. Rotate the load lever to a fully open

position. Then rotate the load plate towards the opposite direction. (See Figure

4-3)

Figure 4-3: Open the CPU Socket Load Plate

Step 3: Inspect the CPU socket Make sure there are no bent pins and make sure the

socket contacts are free of foreign material. If any debris is found, remove it with

compressed air.

Step 4: Orientate the CPU properly. Make sure the IHS (Integrated Heat Sink) side is

facing upward.

74 ©Copy right 2006 CyberResearch, Inc.

CyberResearch® CPU Cards CPCx Series

Step 5: Correctly position the CPU. Match the Pin 1 mark with the cut edge on the

CPU socket.

Step 6: Align the CPU pins. Locate pin 1 and the two orientation notches on the CPU.

Carefully match the two orientation notches on the CPU with the socket

alignment keys.

Step 7: Insert the CPU. Gently insert the CPU into the socket. If the CPU pins are

properly aligned, the CPU should slide into the CPU socket smoothly. See

Figure 4-4.

Figure 4-4: Insert the Socket LGA775 CPU

Step 8: Close the CPU socket. Close the load plate and engage the load lever by

pushing it back to its original position. Secure the load lever under the retention

tab on the side of CPU socket.

Step 9: Connect the CPU power connector. Connect the CPU 12V cable to the CPU

12V power connector after the cooling kit is installed.Step 0:

WARNING:

It is strongly recommended that you DO NOT use the original heat

sink and cooler provided by Intel on the

The CPGx Series is vertically mounted on a horizontal backplane. Intel’s heat

sink does not come with a support bracket on the soldering side, so the

PCB may be bent by the weight of the cooling kit.

NOTE:

Do not wipe off (accidentally or otherwise) the pre-sprayed layer of

thermal paste on the bottom of the heat sink. The thermal paste

between the CPU and the heat sink is important for optimum heat

dissipation.

To install the cooling kit, follow the instructions below.

Step 1: Place the cooling kit onto the socket LGA775 CPU. Make sure the CPU

cable can be properly routed when the cooling kit is installed.

Step 2: Properly align the cooling kit. Make sure the four spring screw fasteners can

pass through the pre-drilled holes on the PCB.

Step 3: Mount the cooling kit. Gently place the cooling kit on top of the CPU. Make

sure the four threaded screws on the corners of the cooling kit properly pass

through the predrilled holes on the bottom of the PCB.

Step 4: Secure the cooling kit. From the solder side of the PCB, align the support

bracket to the screw threads on heat sink that were inserted through the PCB

holes. (See Figure 4-6)
