• USB
The system board supports the new USB 3.0. It is capable of running at a maximum transmission speed of up to 5 Gbit/s (625 MB/s) and is faster than USB 2.0 (480 Mbit/s, or 60 MB/s)
and USB 1.1 (12Mb/s). USB 3.0 reduces the time required for data transmission, reduces
power consumption, and is backward compatible with USB 2.0. It is a marked improvement
in device transfer speeds between your computer and a wide range of simultaneously
accessible external Plug and Play peripherals.

Important:
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage your board, processor, disk drives, add-in
boards, and other components. Perform installation procedures at an ESD workstation
only. If such a station is not available, you can provide some ESD protection by wearing an antistatic wrist strap and attaching it to a metal part of the system chassis. If
a wrist strap is unavailable, establish and maintain contact with the system chassis
throughout any procedures requiring ESD protection.
System Memory
The system board is equipped with two 204-pin SODIMM sockets that support DDR3L(1.35V)
memory modules; depends on CPU supported. However, DDR3L memory module can run at
1.5V.
Important:
When the Standby Power LED lit red, it indicates that there is power on the board.
Power-off the PC then unplug the power cord prior to installing any devices. Failure to
do so will cause severe damage to the board and components.

stem Management Signals Descriptions
Output for audio enunciator - the "speaker" in PC-AT systems.
This port provides the PC beep signal and is mostly intended for
3.3VOutput indicating that a watchdog time-out event has occurred
debugging purposes.
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Physical Presence pin. Active high.
TPM chip has an internal pull down. This signal is used to indicate
Physical Presence to the TPM.
A falling edge creates a power button event. Power button events can
be used to bring a system out of S5 soft off and other suspend states,
as well as powering the system down.
Reset button input. Active low request for Module to reset and reboot.
May be falling edge sensitive. For situations when SYS_RESET# is
not able to reestablish control of the system, PWR_OK or a power
cycle may be used.
Reset output from Module to Carrier Board. Active low. Issued by
Module chipset and may result from a low SYS_RESET# input, a low
PWR_OK input, a VCC_12V power input that falls below the minimum
specification, a watchdog timeout, or may be initiated by the Module
software.
Power OK from main power supply. A high value indicates that the
power is good. This signal can be used to hold off Module startup to
allow Carrier based FPGAs or other configurable devices time to be
programmed.
