Chapter 1 Introduction

1.1 Introduction

The PCM-9580 is a Socket 478 Pentium IV single board computer (SBC)
with Gigabit, USB 2.0, 2channel 48-bit LVDS, audio controller, a 4X
AGP SVGA controller, one PCI slot and TV-out function. It supports
Pentium IV up to 3.06 GHz. The PCM-9580’s design is based on the

5.25" form factor that provides support for PCI module expansion. The

5.25" form factor also provides a convenient connector layout for easy
assembly, more efficient cable connections and better overall embedded
system integration. This compact (only 5.75” x 8”) unit offers all the
functions of a single board industrial computer, but still fits in the space
of a 5.25” CD-ROM drive.
On-board features include, four serial ports, one multi-mode parallel
(ECP/EPP/SPP) port, 4 USB (Universal Serial Bus) 1.1/2.0 ports, an
optional floppy drive controller, and a keyboard/PS/2 mouse interface.
The built-in high-speed PCI IDE controller supports both PIO and
UDMA/100 bus master modes. Up to four IDE devices can be con­nected, including large hard disks, CD-ROM drives, and tape backup
drives.
The PCM-9580 features power management to minimize power con­sumption. It complies with the “Green Function” standard and supports
Doze, Standby and Suspend modes. In addition, the board‘s watchdog
timer can automatically reset the system or generate an interrupt if the
system stops due to a program bug or EMI.

Highly integrated multimedia SBC

The PCM-9580 is a highly integrated multimedia SBC that combines
audio, video, and network functions on a single computer board the size
of a 5.25" CD-ROM drive. It provides an AC-97 interface and supports
Line-in,Line-out, and MIC-in via Optional PCM-232 audio module, and
up to 1600 x 1200 resolution @ 16.8 M colors with 8 to 64MB frame
buffer with system memory. Major on-board devices adopt PCI technol­ogy, to achieve outstanding computing performance when used with
Intel® Pentium®IV processors. The PCM-9580 also supports an TV-out
for NTSC/PAL multimedia applications.

2.3 Locating jumpers and Connectors

Figure 2.1: Jumper & Connector (component side)

11 Chapter 2

2.4 Setting Jumpers

You may configure your card to match the needs of your application by
setting jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electric cir­cuit. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected
by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a
jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper, you
remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2
and 3. In this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3.

The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:.

A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers.

If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your
application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before
you make any changes.

Generally, you simply need a standard cable to make most connections.

PCM-9580 User’s Manual 12

2.5 Clear CMOS (SW1)

This jumper is used to erase CMOS data and reset system BIOS informa­tion.

The procedure for clearing CMOS is:

1. Turn off the system.

2. Push SW1

3. Turn on the system. The BIOS is now reset to its default setting

2.6 Installing DIMMs

The procedure for installing DIMMs is described below. Please follow
these steps carefully. The number of pins are different on either side of
the breaks, so the module can only fit in one way. DIMM modules have
different pin contacts on each side, and therefore have a higher pin den­sity.

1. Make sure that the two handles of the DIMM socket are in the

“open” position. i.e. The handles remain leaning outward.

2. Slowly slide the DIMM module along the plastic guides on both

ends of the socket.

3. Press the DIMM module right down into the socket, until you hear

a click. This is when the two handles have automatically locked the
memory module into the correct position of the socket.

To remove the memory module, just push both handles outward, and the
module will be ejected from the socket.

Warning! To avoid damaging the computer, always turn off

the power supply before setting “Clear CMOS.”
Before turning on the power supply, set the
jumper back to “3.0 V Battery On.”

13 Chapter 2

2.7 IDE, CDROM hard drive connector (CN15, CN13)

The PCM-9580 provides 2 IDE channels which you can attach up to four
Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics hard disk drives or CDROM to
the PCM-9580’s internal controller. The PCM-9580's IDE controller uses
a PCI interface. This advanced IDE controller supports faster data trans­fer, PIO mode 3, mode 4 and UDMA/100. The secondary channel sup­ports UDMA/33 only.

2.7.1 Connecting the hard drive

Connecting drives is done in a daisy-chain fashion. It requires one of two
cables (not included in this package), depending on the drive size. 1.8"
and 2.5" drives need a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 44-pin flat-cable connector. 3.5"
drives use a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 40-pin connector.

Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.

1. Connect one end of the cable to CN15 or CN13. Make sure that the

red (or blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector, which is
labeled on the board (on the right side).

2. Plug the other end of the cable into the Enhanced IDE hard drive,

with pin 1 on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drive.
(See your hard drive’s documentation for the location of the con­nector.)

If desired, connect a second drive as described above.

Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect to either end of the
cable. If you install two drives, you will need to set one as the master and
one as the slave by using jumpers on the drives. If you install only one
drive, set it as the master.

2.8 Solid State Disk

The PCM-9580 provides a CompactFlash™ card socket and DiskOnChip
socket for Solid state disk solutions.

2.8.1 CompactFlash (CN29)

The CompactFlash card shares a secondary IDE channel which can be
enabled/disabled via the BIOS settings.

PCM-9580 User’s Manual 14

2.9 Floppy drive connector (CN12)

You can attach up to two floppy drives to the PCM-9580’s on-board con­troller. You can use any combination of 5.25” (360 KB and 1.2 MB) and/
or 3.5” (720 KB, 1.44 MB, and 2.88 MB) drives.

A 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable is required for a dual-drive
system. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the
other end are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. Each set consists
of a 34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5” drives) and a
printed-circuit board connector (usually used for 5.25” drives).

2.9.1 Connecting the floppy drive

1. Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN12. Make sure that the

red wire corresponds to pin one on the connector.

2. Attach the appropriate connector on the other end of the cable to

the floppy drive(s). You can use only one connector in the set. The
set on the end (after the twist in the cable) connects to the A: drive.
The set in the middle connects to the B: drive.

3. If you are connecting a 5.25” floppy drive, line up the slot in the

printed circuit board with the blocked-off part of the cable connec-

tor.
If you are connecting a 3.5” floppy drive, you may have trouble determin­ing which pin is number one. Look for a number printed on the circuit
board indicating pin number one. In addition, the connector on the floppy
drive may have a slot. When the slot is up, pin number one should be on
the right. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more
information.

If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the
cable as described above.

In case you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assign­ments for the board’s connector in Appendix C.

15 Chapter 2

2.10 Parallel port connector (CN11)

Normally, the parallel port is used to connect the card to a printer. The
PCM-9580 includes a multi-mode (ECP/EPP/SPP) parallel port accessed
via CN11 and a 26-pin flat-cable connector. You will need an adapter
cable if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The adapter cable has a
26-pin connector on one end, and a DB-25 connector on the other.

The parallel port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or changed to
LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.

The parallel port interrupt channel is designated to be IRQ7.

You can select ECP/EPP DMA channel via BIOS setup.

2.11 Keyboard and PS/2 mouse connector (CN17)

The PCM-9580 board provides a keyboard connector that supports both a
keyboard and a PS/2 style mouse. In most cases, especially in embedded
applications, a keyboard is not used. If the keyboard is not present, the
standard PC/AT BIOS will report an error or fail during power-on self­test (POST) after a reset. The PCM-9580’s BIOS standard setup menu
allows you to select “All, But Keyboard” under the “Halt On” selection.
This allows no-keyboard operation in embedded system applications,
without the system halting under POST.

2.12 Front Panel Connector (CN14)

4.1 System test and initialization

These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encoun­ter an error during the tests, you will either hear a few short beeps or see
an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of errors: fatal and
non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with
non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen
along with the following instructions:

press <F1> to RESUME

Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the bootup
sequence.

4.1.1 System configuration verification

These routines check the current system configuration against the values
stored in the board’s CMOS memory. If they do not match, the program
