1 Introduction
1.1 Introduction
Figure 1-1: WAFER-BT
The WAFER-BT SBC m otherboard is an Intel® Atom™/Celeron® processor platform. It
supports one 204-pin 1066/1333 MH z single-channel DDR3L SO-DIMM supports up to
8GB (J1900, N2930, E3845, E3827, E3826) or 4GB (N2807, E3825, E3815).
The WAFER-BT includes a VGA connector, a LVDS connector and an iDP connector.
Expansion and I/O include one USB 2.0 connector and one USB 3.0 connector on the rear
panel, four USB 2.0 connectors by pin header and two SATA 3Gb/s co nnectors. Serial
device connectivit y is provided by two internal RS-232 connectors, one external RS-232
connector and one internal RS-422/485 connector. Two RJ-45 Ethernet connectors
provide the system with smooth connections to an external LAN.

2 Unpacking
2.1 Anti-s tatic Precautions
WARNING!
Static electricity can destroy certain electronics. Make sure to follow the
ESD precautions to preve nt damage to the product, and injur y to the
user.
Make sure to adhere to the following guidelines:
Wear an anti -static wristband: Wearing an anti -static wrist ban d can prev ent
electrostatic discharge.
Self -grounding : Touch a grounded conductor every few minutes to discharge
any excess static buildup.
Use an anti -static pad: When configuring any circuit board, place it on an
anti-static mat.
Only handle the edges of the PCB : Don't touch the surface of the
motherboard. Hold the motherboard by the edges when handling.
2.2 Unpacking Precautions
When the WAFER-BT is unpacked, please do the following:
Follow the antistatic guidelines above.
Make sure the packing box is facing upwards when opening.
Make sure all the packing list items are present.
