AM4100 Introduction
1. Introduction
1.1 Board Overview
The AM4100 is a highly integrated CPU board implemented as a Single Mid-size or Full-size Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) Module. The design is based on the Freescale™ MPC8641D dual-core PowerPC® processor, which uses two e600 cores and high-speed interconnect technology to balance processor performance with I/O system throughput for networking, storage, wireless infrastructure and general-purpose embedded applications.
The MPC8641D is a highly integrated system-on-chip (SOC) platform that consists of two e600 cores each having 32 kB L1 instruction cache, 32 kB L1 data cache and 1 MB L2 cache, a high­speed DDR2 memory interface, four triple speed Ethernet controllers (TSECs), a x4 Serial RapidIO™ fabric interface, a x4 PCI Express I/O interface and a high-performance MPX bus that scales to 600 MHz.
The board is capable of supporting core frequencies ranging from 1.0 GHz to 1.5 GHz providing up to 600 MHz platform speed. The processor and the memory are soldered on the AM4100 which results in higher Mean Time Between Failu res (MTBF) and a sig nificant improvement in cooling.
The AM4100 includes up to 2 GB unbuffered Double Data Rate (DDR2) memory with Error Checking and Correcting (ECC) running at frequencies up to 600 MHz. The four integrated TSECs ensure maximum data throughput betwee n the processor and the Ethernet infrastructu re. The board further provides up to 4 GB Flash memory via an onbo ard NAND F lash Con troller.
The AM4100 has full hot swap capability, which enables the board to be replaced, monitored and controlled without having to shut down the ATCA carrier board or the MicroTCA system. A dedicated Module Management Controller (MMC) is used to manage the board and support a defined subset of Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) commands and PICMG (ATCA/AMC) command extensions, which enables operators to detect and eliminate faults faster at module level. This includes monitoring several onboard temperature conditions, board voltages and the power supply status, managing hot swap ope rations, rebooting the board, etc. All in all, IPMI enhances the board’s availability and reliability while reducing the operating costs and the mean-time-to-repair.
As a “headless” AMC design (no onboard graphics controller), the AM4100 supports one stan­dard RS232 serial port (SER0) and up to two Gigabit Ethernet ports on the front panel as well as a variety of high-speed interconnect topologies to the system, such as two Gigabit Ethernet SerDes connections in the Common Options Region, x4 PCI Express or Serial Ra pidIO con­nection and optional Gigabit Ethernet SerDes connection in the Fat Pipes Region, as well as a debug port and a serial port in the Extended Options Region.
Optimized for high-performance, packet-based telecom systems, the AM4100 is targeted to­wards, but not limited to the telecom market application such as radio network controllers, me­dia streaming, traffic processing, database management and routing. The AM4100 also fit s into all applications situated in industrial environments, including I/O intensive applications. The careful design and the selection of high temperature resistant compone nts ensure a high prod­uct availability. This, together with a high level of scalability, reliability, and stability, make this state-of-the-art product a perfect core technology for long-life embedded applications.

Note ...
Kontron performs comprehensive environmental testing of it s products in accor-
dance with applicable standards.
Customers desiring to perform further environmental testing of Kontron prod-
ucts must contact Kontron for assistance prior to performing any such testing.
This is necessary, as it is possible that environmental testing can be destructive
when not performed in accordance with the applicable specifications.
In particular, for example, boards without conformal coating must not be
exposed to a change of temperature exceeding 1K/ minute, averaged over a
period of not more than five minutes. Otherwise, condensation may cause irre-
versible damage, especially when the board is powered up again.
Kontron does not accept any responsibility for damage to products resulting
from destructive environmental testing.
