WARNING: ESD-Sensitive Electronic Equipment!
Observe ESD-safe handling procedures when working with
this product.
Always use this product in a properly grounded work area and
wear appropriate ESD-preventive clothing and/or accessories.
Always store this product in ESD-protective packaging when
not in use.
IMPORTANT SAFE-HANDLING INFORMATION
Safe Handling Precautions
Magellan contains numerous I/O connectors that connect to sensitive electronic components. This creates many
opportunities for accidental damage during handling, installation and connection to other equipment. The list here
describes common causes of failure found on boards returned to Diamond Systems for repair. This information is
provided as a source of advice to help you prevent damaging your Diamond (or any vendor’s) embedded
computer boards.
ESD damage – This type of damage is almost impossible to detect, because there is no visual sign of failure or
damage. The symptom is that the board simply stops working, because some component becomes defective.
Usually the failure can be identified and the chip can be replaced.
To prevent ESD damage, always follow proper ESD-prevention practices when handling computer boards.
Damage during handling or storage – On some boards we have noticed physical damage from mishandling. A
common observation is that a screwdriver slipped while installing the board, causing a gouge in the PCB surface
and cutting signal traces or damaging components.
Another common observation is damaged board corners, indicating the board was dropped. This may or may not
cause damage to the circuitry, depending on what is near the corner. Most of our boards are designed with at
least 25 mils clearance between the board edge and any component pad, and ground / power planes are at least
20 mils from the edge to avoid possible shorting from this type of damage. However these design rules are not
sufficient to prevent damage in all situations.
A third cause of failure is when a metal screwdriver tip slips, or a screw drops onto the board while it is powered
on, causing a short between a power pin and a signal pin on a component. This can cause overvoltage / power
supply problems described below. To avoid this type of failure, only perform assembly operations when the
system is powered off.
Sometimes boards are stored in racks with slots that grip the edge of the board. This is a common practice for
board manufacturers. However our boards are generally very dense, and if the board has components very close
to the board edge, they can be damaged or even knocked off the board when the board tilts back in the rack.
Diamond recommends that all our boards be stored only in individual ESD-safe packaging. If multiple boards are
stored together, they should be contained in bins with dividers between boards. Do not pile boards on top of each
other or cram too many boards into a small location. This can cause damage to connector pins or fragile
components.
Power supply wired backwards – Our power supplies and boards are not designed to withstand a reverse
power supply connection. This will destroy each IC that is connected to the power supply. In this case the board
will most likely will be unrepairable and must be replaced. A chip destroyed by reverse power or by excessive
power will often have a visible hole on the top or show some deformation on the top surface due to vaporization
inside the package. Check twice before applying power!
Bent connector pins – This type of problem is often only a cosmetic issue and is easily fixed by bending the pins
back to their proper shape one at a time with needle-nose pliers. This situation can occur when pulling a ribbon
cable off of a pin header. Note: If the pins are bent too severely, bending them back can cause them to weaken
unacceptably or even break, and the connector must be replaced.

1. INTRODUCTION
The Magellan Embedded-Ready Subsystem is a high performance, highly integrated board-level embedded
single board computer matching the footprint of the popular COM Express computer-on-module (COM) standard.
Magellan’s CPU core consists of a COM Express CPU module mounted on its bottom side, an approach that
improves thermal management and increases the space for I/O functions and connectors. This innovative design
has enabled Magellan to integrate additional serial and Ethernet controllers, a complete set of peripheral interface
header connectors, a PCI-104TM expansion stack, SUMITTM bus connector, and a MXM I/O FeaturePakTM socket
all within the compact COM Express footprint.
Thanks to Magellan’s flexible architecture, you can select from a wide range of COM Express-based CPUs to
meet each application’s specific performance, power, and cost requirements. Available processors include Intel’s
Atom and Core 2 Duo CPUs.
Magellan is offered in a range of models that vary according to the choice of COM Express CPU module, on-
board SO-DIMM SDRAM capacity, and input power option as shown in the table below.
Figure 1: Edge View of the Magellan Embedded-Ready Subsystem SBC
Magellan’s features comprise functions provided by the “Magellan baseboard”, or application layer, (top board in
stack shown in Figure 1) along with functions implemented on the attached COM Express computer-on-module
(COM) macrocomponent (bottom board in stack), along with a heatspreader mounted on the bottom.
These features are summarized on the next page.

1.2 FeaturePak and SUMIT Socket Resources
Magellan’s FeaturePak and SUMIT expansion sockets provide the host interface resource support indicated in the
tables below. For further details on these expansion standards, visit FeaturePak.org and SFF-SIG.org/sumit.html.
1.3 Software Compatibility
Magellan’s operating system compatibility is a function of both the Magellan baseboard and the specific COM
Express CPU module attached to it. The baseboard and has been qualified for use with Windows XP/XPe and
Linux 2.6. The operating systems supported by the COM Express CPU module vary according to the specific
COM Express module used. Consult the appropriate COM Express CPU module’s user manual for details on its
operating system support.
1.4 Thermal Considerations and Heatspreader
All models of Magellan are specified for an operating temperature range of -40oC to +85oC. Diamond Systems
provides a heatspreader attached to the Magellan single board computer as a conductive cooled thermal layer.
However, this heatspreader by itself does not constitute the complete thermal solution necessary for any specific
implementation, but provides a common interface between the single board computer and the customer’s
implementation-specific thermal solution.
For Magellan MAG-965 models, the heatspreader is only a partial thermal solution. To achieve the full -40oC to
+85oC operating range with these models, the outside surface of the Magellan MAG-965 heatspreader must be
kept at a temperature not to exceed +85oC. If your environment exceeds this temperature specification, you are
responsible for removing the additional heat from the system through either an additional passive thermal solution
or fan solution.
Magellan’s integrated heatspreader makes thermal contact with the heat generating components and provides a
flat surface on the bottom of the assembly for mating to the system enclosure. This technique facilitates efficient
removal of heat from the COM module without the need for a fan. Four mounting holes on the bottom of the
conduction cooled heatspreader are provided to mount Magellan in an enclosure or to a bulkhead. These
mounting holes are #6-32 threaded holes on 2.8" centers.

2. FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
2.1 Block Diagrams
Figure 2 illustrates Magellan’s functional blocks, including circuitry contained on both the Magellan baseboard and
the COM Express CPU module. As indicated in the block diagram, the baseboard circuitry primarily comprises
interface connections and additional LAN and serial I/O, while the COM Express module integrates the system’s
core embedded PC functionality. Although COM Express CPU module processors and precise functions vary
between specific modules, the block diagram of a typical COM Express CPU module appears in Figure 3.
