1.9 COM Express® Documentation

This product manual serves as one of three principal references for a COM Express® design. It documents the specifications and features of COMe-cPC2. Additional references are are available from your Kontron Support or from PICMG®:
» The COM Express® Specification defines the COM Express® module form factor, pin-out, and signals. This document
is available from the PIGMG website by filling out the order form.
» The COM Express® Design Guide by PICMG serves as a general guide for baseboard design, with a focus on maximum
flexibility to accommodate a wide range of COM Express® modules.
Some of the information contained within this product manual applies only to certain product revisions (CE: xxx). If certain information applies to specific product revisions (CE: xxx) it will be stated. Please check the product revision of your module to see if this information is applicable.

1.10 COM Express® Benefits

COM Express® modules are very compact, highly integrated computers. All Kontron COM Express® modules feature a standardized form factor and a standardized connector layout that carry a specified set of signals. Each COM is based on the COM Express® specification. This standardization allows designers to create a single-system baseboard that can accept present and future COM Express® modules.
The baseboard designer can optimize exactly how each of these functions implements physically. Designers can place connectors precisely where needed for the application on a baseboard designed to optimally fit a system’s packaging.
A single baseboard design can use a range of COM Express® modules with different size and pin-out. This flexibility can differentiate products at various price/performance points, or to design future proof systems that have a built-in upgrade path. The modularity of a COM Express® solution also ensures against obsolescence as computer technology evolves. A properly designed COM Express® baseboard can work with several successive generations of COM Express® modules.
A COM Express® baseboard design has many advantages of a custom, computer-board design but delivers better obsolescence protection, greatly reduced engineering effort, and faster time to market.

The COMe-cPC2 provides an external input for a power-good signal (Pin B24). The implementation of this subsystem complies with the COM Express® Specification. PWR_OK is internally pulled up to 3.3V and must be high level to power on the module.

Reset Button (SYS_RESET#)

The reset button (Pin B49) is available through the module connector described in the pinout list. The module will stay in reset as long as SYS_RESET# is grounded. If available, the BIOS setting for “Reset Behavior” must be set to “Power Cycle”.
Modules with Intel® Chipset and active Management Engine does not allow to hold the module in Reset out of S0 for a long time. At about 10s holding the reset button the ME will reboot the module automatically

SM-Bus Alert (SMB_ALERT#)

With an external battery manager present and SMB_ALERT# (Pin B15) connected the module always powers on even if BIOS switch “After Power Fail” is set to “Stay Off”.

2.8 MTBF

The following MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) values were calculated using a combination of manufacturer’s test data, if the data was available, and the Telcordia (Bellcore) issue 2 calculation for the remaining parts. The calculation methode used is “Telcordia Method 1 Case 3” in a ground benign, controlled environment (GB,GC). This particular method takes into account varying temperature and stress data and the system is assumed to have not been burned in. Other environmental stresses (extreme altitude, vibration, salt water exposure, etc) lower MTBF values.
System MTBF (hours): 175488 @ 40°C
Fans usually shipped with Kontron Europe GmbH products have 50,000-hour typical operating life. The above estimates assume no fan, but a passive heat sinking arrangement Estimated RTC battery life (as opposed to battery failures) is not accounted for in the above figures and need to be considered for separately. Battery life depends on both temperature and operating conditions. When the Kontron unit has external power; the only battery drain is from leakage paths.

2.11 Thermal Management

A heatspreader plate assembly is available from Kontron Europe GmbH for the COMe-cPC2. The heatspreader plate on top of this assembly is NOT a heat sink. It works as a COM Express®-standard thermal interface to use with a heat sink or other cooling device.
External cooling must be provided to maintain the heatspreader plate at proper operating temperatures. Under worst­case conditions, the cooling mechanism must maintain an ambient air and heatspreader plate temperature of 60° C or less.
The aluminum slugs and thermal pads on the underside of the heatspreader assembly implement thermal interfaces between the heatspreader plate and the major heat-generating components on the COMe-cPC2. About 80 percent of the power dissipated within the module is conducted to the heatspreader plate and can be removed by the cooling solution.
You can use many thermal-management solutions with the heatspreader plates, including active and passive approaches. The optimum cooling solution varies, depending on the COM Express® application and environmental conditions. Please see the COM Express® Design Guide for further information on thermal management.

3 Features and Interfaces

3.1 S5 Eco Mode

Kontron’s new high-efficient power-off state S5 Eco enables lowest power-consumption in soft-off state – less than 1 mA compared to the regular S5 state this means a reduction by at least factor 200!
In the “normal” S5 mode the board is supplied by 5V_Stb and needs usually up to 300mA just to stay off. This mode allows to be switched on by power button, RTC event and WakeOnLan, even when it is not necessary. The new S5 Eco mode reduces the current tremendously.
The S5 Eco Mode can be enabled in BIOS Setup, when the BIOS supports this feature.
Following prerequesites and consequences occur when S5 Eco Mode is enabled
» The power button must be pressed at least for 200ms to switch on.
» Wake via Powerbutton only.
» “Power On After Power Fail”/“State after G3”: only “stay off” is possible

COMe-cPC2 / Features and Interfaces

3.2 LPC

The Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface signals are connected to the LPC Bus bridge located in the CPU or chipset. The LPC low speed interface can be used for peripheral circuits such as an external Super I/O Controller, which typically combines legacy-device support into a single IC. The implementation of this subsystem complies with the COM Express® Specification. Implementation information is provided in the COM Express® Design Guide maintained by PICMG. Please refer to the official PICMG documentation for additional information.
The LPC bus does not support DMA (Direct Memory Access) and a clock buffer is required when more than one device is used on LPC. This leads to limitations for ISA bus and SIO (standard I/O´s like Floppy or LPT interfaces) implementations.
All Kontron COM Express® Computer-on-Modules imply BIOS support for following external baseboard LPC Super I/O controller features for the Winbond/Nuvoton 5V 83627HF/G and 3.3V 83627DHG-P:

3.6 JIDA16 and JIDA32

JIDA16 (JUMPtec® Intelligent Device Architecture) is a BIOS interface which allows programs running in Real Mode operating systems (i.e. MS DOS) to call certain functions implemented in the BIOS. These functions can be used to get module information, make settings and access the I2C Bus and the Watchdog unit. JIDA16 functions are INT 15h BIOS calls which are only available in 16 Bit Real Mode operating systems.
For 32bit operating systems (i.e. WindowsXP, Windows 7, Windows CE, VxWorks, Linux) a different JIDA implementation called JIDA32 is implemented. The same common driver for all JIDA32 capable modules talks to the JIDA32 part in the BIOS, which is hardware dependent to interact with the hardware.
Please refer to EMD Customer Section for detailed documentation, JIDA utilities and Libraries for DOS, Windows, Linux, VxWorks or QNX.

3.12 Speedstep Technology

The Intel® processors offers the Intel® Enhanced SpeedStep™ technology that automatically switches between maximum performance mode and battery-optimized mode, depending on the needs of the application being run. It let you customize high performance computing on your applications. When powered by a battery or running in idle mode, the processor drops to lower frequencies (by changing the CPU ratios) and voltage, conserving battery life while maintaining a high level of performance. The frequency is set back automatically to the high frequency, allowing you to customize performance.
In order to use the Intel® Enhanced SpeedStep™ technology the operating system must support SpeedStep™ technology.
By disabling the SpeedStep feature in the BIOS, manual control/modification of CPU performance is possible. Setup the CPU Performance State in the BIOS Setup or use 3rd party software to control CPU Performance States.
39
COMe-cPC2 / Features and Interfaces

3.13 C-States

New generation platforms include power saving features like SuperLFM, EIST (P-States) or C-States in O/S idle mode.
Activated C-States are able to dramatically decrease power consumption in idle mode by reducing the Core Voltage or switching of parts of the CPU Core, the Core Clocks or the CPU Cache.
Following C-States are defined:
C­State
Description Function
C0 Operating CPU fully turned on
C1 Halt State Stops CPU main internal clocks via sof tware
C1E Enhanced Halt Similar to C1, additionally reduces CPU voltage
C2 Stop Grant Stops CPU internal and external clocks via hardware
C2E Extended Stop Grant Similar to C2, additionally reduces CPU voltage
C3 Deep Sleep Stops all CPU internal and external clocks
C3E Extended Stop Grant Similar to C3, additionally reduces CPU voltage
C4 Deeper Sleep Reduces CPU voltage
C4E Enhanced Deeper Sleep Reduces CPU voltage even more and turns off the memory cache
C6 Deep Power Down Reduces the CPU internal voltage to any value, including 0V
C7 Deep Power Down Similar to C6, additionally LLC (LastLevelCache) is switched off
C-States are usually enabled by default for low power consumption, but active C-States my influence performance sensitive applications or real-time systems.
» Active C6-State may influence data transfer on external Serial Ports
» Active C7-State may cause lower CPU and Graphics performance
It's recommended to disable C-States / Enhanced C-States in BIOS Setup if any problems occur.

COMe-cPC2 / Features and Interfaces

3.14 Dynamic FSB Frequency Switching

Dynamic FSB frequency switching effectively reduces the internal bus clock frequency in half to further decrease the minimum processor operating frequency from the Enhanced Intel SpeedStep Technology performance states and achieve the Super Low Frequency Mode (Super LFM). This feature is supported at FSB frequencies of 1066 MHz, 800 MHz and 667 MHz and does not entail a change in the external bus signal (BCLK) frequency. Instead, both the processor and GMCH internally lower their BCLK reference frequency to 50% of the externally visible frequency. Both the processor and GMCH maintain a virtual BCLK signal (VBCLK) that is aligned to the external BCLK but at half the frequency.
After a downward shift, it would appear externally as if the bus is running with a 133-MHz base clock in all aspects, except that the actual external BCLK remains at 266 MHz. See Figure 3 for details. The transition into Super LFM, a “down-shift,” is done following a handshake between the processor and GMCH. A similar handshake is used to indicate an “up-shift,” a change back to normal operating mode. Please ensure this feature is enabled and supported in the BIOS.
41
COMe-cPC2 / Features and Interfaces

3.15 VID-x

The processor implements the VID-x feature for improved control of core voltage levels when the processor enters a reduced power consumption state. VID-x applies only when the processor is in the Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology performance state and one or more cores are in low-power state (i.e., CC3/CC4/CC6). VID-x provides the ability for the processor to request core voltage level reductions greater than one VID tick. The amount of VID tick reduction is fixed and only occurs while the processor is in Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode. This improved voltage regulator efficiency during periods of reduced power consumption allows for leakage current reduction which results in platform power savings and extended battery life.
When in Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode, it is possible for both cores to be active under certain internal conditions. In such a scenario the processor may draw a Instantaneous current (ICC_CORE_INST) for a short duration of tINST; however, the average ICC current will be lesser than or equal to ICCDES current specification.
42
COMe-cPC2 / Features and Interfaces

3.16 Enhanced Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology

The processor supports Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode. The Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology feature allows one core of the processor to operate at a higher frequency point when the other core is inactive and the operating system requests increased performance. This higher frequency is called the opportunistic frequency and the maximum rated operating frequency is the ensured frequency. The processor includes a hysteresis mechanism that improves overall Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology performance by decreasing unnecessary transitions of the cores in and out of Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode. Normally, the processor would exit Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology as soon as two cores are active. This can become an issue if the idle core is frequently awakened for a short periods (i.e., high timer tick rates). The hysteresis mechanism allows two cores to be active for a limited time before it transitions out of Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode.
Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode enabling requires:
» Exposure, via BIOS, of the opportunistic frequency as the highest ACPI P state
» Enhanced Multi-Threaded Thermal Management (EMTTM)
» Intel Dynamic Acceleration Technology mode and EMTTM MSR configuration via BIOS

3.17 Usage of Different Graphic Interfaces

The COMe-cPC2 offers VGA, PCIexpress Graphics, LVDS, HDMI, SDVO and Displayport interfaces to connect graphical user interfaces. The usage of VGA, PCIexpress and SDVO complies with the current COM Express® Specification.
The principle of using them is shown in the next drawing.
VGA and LVDS interface is always available and can be used. The pins of PCIexpress Graphics either are used as PCIexpress Graphics or as HDMI/SDVO/DP, which is controlled by switch1.
Switch1 is the SDVO_SDA# line (C73). When this signal is high (2.5V) the SDVO/HDMI/DP output is enabled. Otherwise the lines can be used as PCIexpressGraphic.
The switch 2 to select HDMI, SDVO or Displayport consists of the devices detected on the regarding sense circuits. When there is an SDVO 2 TV/LVDS/DVI converter found on the SDVO_DATA and _CLK lines (C73; D73) then the output is switched to SDVO. When there is Displayport device found on the Displayport AUX lines (C71; C72) then it is Display port and in any other case the output is switched to HDMI.

COMe-cPC2 / Features and Interfaces

Digital Display Interface Features

The integrated Intel® GMA X4500MHD (Gen5.5) graphics supports:
» One stream high-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) on HDMI or DisplayPort (requires optional available
HDCP Key)
» One active Protected Audio and Video Path (PAVP) session on HDMI or DisplayPort
» HDMI Audio if activated in BIOS and O/S
» DP/HDMI/DVI Hot-plug (low-active)

DDI Design Consideration

» For sufficient signal quality baseboard designs with long signal lanes or impedance leaps may require an Equalicer
or Redriver for the digital display interfaces
» Monitor Hot-plug detection is usually high-active. On COMe-cPC2 the hot-plug is low active and requires conversion
on the baseboard

Supported Audio Formats on HDMI

» AC-3 Dolby Digital
» Dolby Digital Plus
» DTS-HD
» LPCM, 192kHz/24bit, 8 channel
» Dolby True HD, DTS HD Master Audio

3.21 Hybrid Graphics / Multi-monitor

The COMe-cPC2 supports Hybrid Multi-monitor function which is one form of Intel's Hybrid Graphics where integrated graphics (in Chipset or CPU) is available to operate simultaneously with external PEG; PCIe or PCI graphics. This feature enables concurrent function of Intel's integrated Graphics Processing Unit (GPU/iGFX) along with a discrete GPU solution, allowing for operability of greater than two independently-driven displays. The O/S will handle control of the multiple GPU display adapters appropriately. For example, WindowsXP supports The Microsoft Windows XP Display Driver Model (XPDM) which allows loading and support of multiple graphics drivers. Windows 7 continues that legacy XPDM support but also adds WDDM v1.1 which, like XPDM, allows for simultaneous multiple graphics drivers (Windows Vista WDDM v1.0 did not allow this capability). Operating system applications will be adapter-unaware through use of the O/S GUI APIs and will utilize the adapter associated with the primary display, regardless of which display the image is located on.
Some applications may be adapter-aware, e.g., full-screen applications and system applications like the compositor. A number of software tools designed to assist multi­monitor use are available from third parties. One example is the UltraMon* utility for multi­monitor systems, which helps with the position of applications, assists desktop wallpapers and screen savers in multi-monitor configurations.
Hybrid Multi-monitor mode is recommended to be accomplished using a discrete third-party PCI Express graphics card either into the PEG slot of the platform or into an available PCI Express slot routed off of the I/O subsection of the chipset.

Requirements

» Baseboard supporting PEG (alternatively PCIe or PCI)
» Module BIOS which allows switching between iGFX and discrete GPU (iGFX must be set to primary boot display)
» O/S supporting heterogeneous display adapters (Linux / WindowsXP / Windows 7)

Setup a Multi-monitor system

» Start without the discrete GPU seated in the system
» Select IGD as Primary Boot Display in BIOS Setup
» Boot into O/S and install drivers requested for the integrated GPU
» Shut down the system and insert the discrete GPU
» Boot into O/S and install drivers requested for the discrete GPU (if necessary in Safe mode)
» Set the Windows Display properties as referenced below (example: WindowsXP)
48
COMe-cPC2 / Features and Interfaces
In most cases the graphical user interfaces (e.g. ATI Catalyst Control Center) for both GPUs may not run properly. It's recommended to use O/S implemented Display Properties like in screenshot above

3.22 Intel® vPro™ technology

Kontron and Intel® are addressing the security and manageability challenges facing embedded systems today with the implementation of Intel® vPro™ technology to enable: » System integrity » Secure isolation » Remote systems management
First, system integrity is the ability to identify whether the system hardware or system software has been modified without authorization. When a system’s integrity is known, the system can be thought of as a trusted system. Second, secure isolation is the ability to use platform hardware to separate processes, resources, and data on the system such that they cannot interact with each other in unintended ways. By providing hardware-assisted isolation, there are limitless security, privacy, and cost savings that can be realized through consolidation and workload isolation. Finally, remote systems management is the ability to troubleshoot, perform power management or system verification through secure channels. Significant cost savings and efficiencies can be realized through remote management allowing for increased system up time and the ability to manage or diagnose a system, even when powered down.
Intel® vPro™ technology itself is special functionality designed into the both the processor and the chipset. The three technologies that comprise Intel® vPro™ technology are: Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel® VT), Intel Trusted Execution Technology (Intel® TXT) and Intel Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT).
Intel® VT provides hardware-based assists making secure isolation more efficient and decreases the virtualization footprint, lowering the effective attack surface of a solution. This hardware-based technology can help to protect applications and information by running multiple operating systems (OSs) in isolation on the same physical system. A virtual guest OS can be created in an entirely separate space on the physical system to run specialized or critical applications. Virtual environments leverage Intel® VT for memory, CPU, and Directed I/O virtualization. Intel® TXT provides the ability to use hardware-based mechanisms to verify system integrity during the boot process. It also provides system memory scrubbing that protects against soft reset attacks. Virtualized environments take advantage of Intel® TXT launch environment verification to establish a dynamic root of trust providing added security to hypervisor or virtual machine monitor (VMM).
Mechanisms employed by Intel® AMT include domain authentication, session keys, persistent data storage in the Intel® AMT hardware, and access control lists. Only firmware images that are digitally signed by Intel are permitted to load and execute. This set of hardware-based features is targeted for businesses and allows remote access to the system, whether wired or wireless, for management and security tasks. Because of the special hardware capabilities provided by Intel® AMT, out of band access is available even when the OS is not functional or system power is off.
Intel® TXT and Intel® AMT are disabled by default. Please contact your local sales or support for BIOS versions with full vPro™ support

6 BIOS Operation

The module is equipped with AMI® CORE8 BIOS, which is located in an onboard SPI/LPC flash memory. You can update the BIOS using a Flash utility.

6.1 Determining the BIOS Version

To determine the AMI® BIOS version, immediately press the Pause key on your keyboard as soon as you see the following text display in the upper left corner of your screen:
» AMIBIOS © 2006 American Megatrends, Inc.
» BIOS Date: mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss Ver: xx.xx.xx
» Kontron® BIOS Version <UNTGRXXX
» Copyright 2002-2011 Kontron Embedded Modules GmbH

6.2 BIOS Update

Kontron provides continous BIOS updates for Computer-on-Modules. The updates are provided for download on
http://emdcustomersection.kontron.com with a detailed change description within the according Product Change
Notification (PCN). Please register for EMD Customer Section to get access to BIOS downloads and PCN service.
Modules with BIOS Region/Setup only inside the flash can be updated with AFU utilities (usually 1-3MB BIOS binary file size) directly. Modules with Intel® Management Engine, Ethernet, Flash Descriptor and other options additionally to the BIOS Region (usually 4-8MB BIOS binary file size) requires a different update process with Intel Flash Utility FPT and a wrapper to backup and restore configurations and the MAC address. Therefore it is strongly recommended to use the batch file inside the BIOS download package available on EMD Customer Section.
» Boot the module to DOS/EFI Shell with access to the BIOS image and Firmware Update Utility provided on EMD
Customer Section
» Execute Flash.bat in DOS or Flash.nsh in EFI Shell
Any modification of the update process may damage your module!

COMe-cPC2 / BIOS Operation
Passive Cooling
The ACPI OS assesses the optimum CPU performance change necessary to lower the temperature using the following equation
ΔP[%] = TC1(Tn-Tn-1) + TC2(Tn-Tt)
ΔP is the performance delta, Tt is the target temperature = passive cooling trip point. The two coefficients TC1 and TC2 and the sampling period TSP are hardware dependent constants the end user must supply. It’s up to the end user to set the cooling preference of the system by setting the appropriate trip points in the BIOS setup.
