Precautions
Some components on SBC-370 are very sensitive to static electric charges and can be damaged by a sudden rush of power.
To protect it from unintended damage, be sure to follow these precautions:
Ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the SBC-370. You can do this by using a grounded wrist strap
at all times or by frequently touching any conducting materials that are connected to the ground.
Handle your SBC-370 by its edges. Don't touch IC chips, leads, or circuitry if not necessary.
Do not plug any connector or jumper while the power is on.
Do not put your SBC-370 unprotected on a flat surface because it has components on both sides.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the
manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions.

is equipped with a high performance Intel® Celeron processor (up to 500 MHz) or
Pentium III (FC-PGA) 500 MHz (or above) processor, and advanced high performance
multi-mode I/O.
This board has a built-in DiskOnChip™ (DOC) Flash Disk for embedded applications.
The DOC Flash Disk is 100% compatible to hard disk. Users can use any DOS com
mand without any extra software utility. The DOC currently is available from 2 MB to
144 MB.
An advanced high performance super AT I/O chip - Winbond W83977TF is used in
the SBC-370 board. The on-chip UARTs are compatible with NS16C550. The parellel
port and IDE interface are compatible with IBM PC/AT architecture.
SBC-370 uses the advanced Intel 440BX Chipset which is 100% compatible chipset
with PCI 2.1 standard.

WATCHDOG TIMER
The Watchdog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can recover from
catastrophic conditions that cause the CPU to crash. This condition can occur from ex
ternal EMI or a software bug. When the CPU stops working correctly, hardware on the
board will either perform a hardware reset (cold boot) or a Non-Maskable Interrupt
(NMI) to bring the system back to a known state.
Two I/O ports control the Watchdog Timer:
443 (hex) Read Enable to refresh the Watchdog Timer
043 (hex) Read Disable the Watchdog Timer
To enable the Watchdog Timer, a read from I/O port 443H must be performed. This
will enable and activate the countdown timer which will eventually timeout and
either reset the CPU or cause a NMI, depending on the setting of JP5. To ensure
that this reset condition does not occur, the Watchdog Timer must periodically be
refreshed by reading the same I/O port 433H. This must be done within the time
out period that is selected by JP12.
-
-
A tolerance of at least 20% must be maintained to avoid unknown routines
within the operating system (DOS), such as disk I/O that can be very time consuming. Therefore, if the timeout period has been set to 10 seconds, the I/O port
443H must be read within 7 seconds.
Note: When exiting a program, it is necessary to disable the Watchdog Timer, otherwise
the system will reset.
E2KEY™ FUNCTION
The SBC-370 provides an E2KEY™ function for system integrators. Based on the E2KEY
utility, you can freely store the ID Code, Password, or Critical Data in the 1Kbit
EEPROM. Because the EEPROM is nonvolatile memory, you don't have to worry about
losing important data.
The E2KEY utility is based on a 1Kbit EEPROM which is configured to 64 words
(from 0 to 63). You can access (read or write) each word at any time.

The E
will include four files as files:
•
KEY utility is provided on a CD-ROM with your system. The software utility
README.DOC
•
E2KEY.OBJ
•
EKEYDEMO.C
•
EKEYDEMO.EXE
9 Features
The E2KEY.OBJ provides two library functions for you to integrate your application
2
with the E
KEY function. The read_e2key and write_e2key libraries are written and
compiled in C language. To implement them, refer to the functions below:
*/unsigned int read_e2key(unsigned int address): This function will return the
2
E
KEY data to a certain address. The address range is from 0 to 63. Return data is
one word, 16 bits.
*/void write_e2key(unsigned int address, unsigned data): This function will write
the given data to E
value is from 0 to 0xffff.
To begin using this function, refer to the included EKEYDEMO.C code.
2
Key to a certain address. The address is from 0 to 63. The data
Note: The E
2
KEY function is based on the parallel port. Therefore, you should enable
SBC-370's parallel port or it will not work.
CONNECTING TO AN ATX POWER SUPPLY
To Connect ATX Power Supply to the Backplanes and/or the ISBC Card
1. Disconnect the AC cord from the power supply to prevent sudden electric surge.
2. Connect the ATX power supply switch to the pin 17 (power button) and pin 19
(+5VSB) of CN7 (multi panel) on the board.
Figure 1. SBC-370
(through Power
Button and +5VSB).
•
To turn off the power supply, push the ATX power switch button for about four seconds.
•
To turn the system on, push the button once.

Watchdog Timer Type Setting (JP5)
The Watchdog Timer is enabled by reading port 443H. It should be triggered be
fore the timeout period ends; otherwise, it will assume the program operation is
abnormal and will issue a reset signal to reboot or activate NMI to CPU. The
Watchdog Timer is disabled by reading port 043H.
