3.6 MTBF
The following MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) values were calculated using a combination of manufacturer‟s test
data, if the data was available, and a Bellcore calculation for the remaining parts. The Bellcore calculation used is
“Method 1 Case 1”. In that particular method the components are assumed to be operating at a 50 % stress level in a
40° C ambient environment and the system is assumed to have not been burned in. Manufacturer‟s data has been
used wherever possible. The manufacturer‟s data, when used, is specified at 50° C, so in that sense the following
results are slightly conservative. The MTBF values shown below are for a 40° C in an office or telecommunications
environment. Higher temperatures and other environmental stresses (extreme altitude, vibration, salt water
exposure, etc.) lower MTBF values.

5 Connectors and Features
5.1 Power supply
5.1.1 ATX connector
The COM Express® Eval Type 10 power supply follows the ATX 2.x specification and the baseboard should be supplied
by connecting an ATX PSU with 24pin ATX and 4pin ATX_12V supply cable in correct orientation. The 4pin ATX_12V
connector mainly supplies power to the module over 0R resistor R876 and allows powering the module directly in
specified wide range power input. The module additionally is supplied with 5V standby voltage over 0R resistor R246.
Standby voltage can easily be disconnected by opening jumper J67 to drive the module in single supply mode. Use
connector J70 and J69 for current measurements.

5.1.2 PS_ON override & S5 Eco
With PS_ON override jumper J14 it is possible to switch off the ATX power supply manually. Jumper J66 should be
opened to test module S5Eco or single supply mode.
In S5Eco mode all baseboard components (including status LED) are disconnected from standby voltages in S5 state.
5VSB supply to the module can be disconnected separately with jumper J67.
Note: If S5Eco mode is enabled only power button SW1 is supported to power-on the system.

5.2 COM Express® connector
The COM Express® Eval Type 10 is an evaluation backplane for Type 1 or Type 10 based Computer-on-Modules. Both
types are module pin-outs based on one connectors with 2 rows (Row A and B) with 220 pins overall. Please refer to
your module documentation for detailed pin-out descriptions.
Note: The Type 1 or Type 10 pin-out is compatible to Type 2. It's possible to drive Computer-on-Modules based on
pin-out Type 2 on this evaluation baseboard without functionality of second COM Express® connector CD
(PEG, IDE, PCI).

are working correctly. Some additional status LED shows active or inactive slots and signals. See table below for
detailed information.

5.5 SD-Card / Module GPIO
The SD-Card standard is a standard for removable memory storages designed and licensed by the SD Card Association
(http://sdcard.org). The card form factor, electrical interface and protocol are all part of the SD Card specification.
COM Express® Type 1 and Type 10 pin-out based modules may provide a SDIO interface shared with GPIO signals.
Therefore on COM Express® Eval Type 10 a SD-Card connector is available. Please check the documentation of your
module if SDIO is supported and how to enable.
Close configuration jumper J59 (default) to enable SD-Card Slot J43 or open J59 to enable GPIO pin-header J48.
Note1: A SD-Card is detected if Card Detect is at low level. The write protection is active (read only) if SD_WP is at
high level.
Note2: The switching circuitry which selects GPIO or SDIO interface may influence the signal quality of SDIO which
results in detection or boot issues with some fast SD/SDHC cards. Therefore it's recommended to reduce
SDIO interface speed to 24MHz in module's BIOS if supported

5.6 High Definition Audio
The COM Express® Eval Type 10 provides HDAudio via Realtek ALC888/ALC886 High Definition Audio Codec supporting
analog, optical and digital audio connections.
The onboard buzzer SPK1 can be disabled by opening jumper J1 (default closed). Optical S/PDIF for Toslink
connection is available on rear panel connector J2.
Audio Connector J8 - Speaker Configuration
The Audio Connector J8 on COM Express® Eval Type 10 is a full featured analog audio jack for speaker configuration up
to 8-channel.
Note1: In addition to the default speaker settings, the analog audio Jacks can be reconfigured to perform different
functions via the Realtek HDAudio Driver Software which is available on Kontron website. Only microphones
still must be connected to the default pink jack.
Note2: Audio is only supported with HD Audio compatible COM Express® Modules.

5.9 PCI
The mini size COM Express® form factor for Type 1 and Type 10 pin-out based modules does not specify an interface for
PCI. Therefore on COM Express® Eval Type 10 a PLX8112 PCIexpress to PCI switch (U38) is used to provide two PCI
Slots following the PCI 2.x specification.
Both PCI slots are enabled when the PCIexpress switch is active. If the PCIe switch is disabled a module with at least 3
PCIexpress lanes is required to enable J38/J39.

5.14 External BIOS
The COM Express® Eval Type 10 supports external boot. By closing Jumper J46 the module's onboard BIOS is disabled
and the system will boot from an external Firmware Hub in U43 PLCC socket J74.
For modules supporting SPI boot the COM Express® Eval Type 10 provides a SPI socket J76 for an optional available
SPI Flash. SPI is part of COM.0 Specification Rev 2.0 and external SPI boot can be enabled by closing Jumper J75.
Please check the documentation of your module if SPI is supported and which SPI Flash size is required.
Booting from external BIOS:
» Close Jumper J46 to boot from the baseboard's LPC Firmware
» Close Jumper J75 to boot from the baseboard's SPI Flash
Flashing the external BIOS:
» Prepare a bootable USB flash drive and save BIOS and flash utility in the root folder
Please check Application Note KEMAP046 avialble at Kontron's customer section for more details
» Open J46/J75 to boot from the module's BIOS
» Power on the system and boot from our USB flash drive
» Close J46 to enable the LPC FWH or close J75 to enable the SPI Flash
» Execute the BIOS update command (e.g. afudos.exe bios.rom /P /B /N /C /X)
» Reboot your system if flash procedure has finished
» Your system should now start from external BIOS
Note: Please check module documentation if external boot from LPC FWH and/or SPI Flash is supported
Warning: Do not close both jumpers at the same time

5.15 Serial Interface
The PICMG COM.0 specification revision 2.0 defines two optional 2-pin serial interfaces on COM Express® connector
pins A98/A99 and A101/A102 formerly used for 12V VCC input. Both new interfaces are available directly on optional
pin-header J83 and J84.
J78 and J79 allow both interfaces to be used as 2-pin RS232 interfaces COMA and COMB with Kontron Adapter cable
KAB-DSUB9-3. Please check the documentation of your module if this interface is supported and how to configure.

The 7-segment display D53/D54 for Port 81 and D40/41 for Port 80 shows BIOS status codes during boot-up process.
Last 8 check codes are stored automatically and can be controlled by switch SW3 (Post Code step backward) and
switch SW4 (Post code step forward). Pressing SW3 and SW4 simultaneously returns to newest POST code.
The POST Code display also shows current Suspend state:
» S3 -> POST code "_ _ _ 3"
» S4 -> POST code "_ _ _ 4"
» S5 -> POST code "_ _ _ 5"
Power Good J71
The Power Good output generated by the CPLD must be high level to allow the module to start. Some modules may
provide direct power-on support if VCC gets connected and PWR_OK (COM Exress pin B24) is open or at high level. To
test this functionality configuration jumper J71 can be opened to disconnect Power Good.

7 Module Single Supply and Wide Range
The Computer-on-Module power is supplied directly from ATX_12V connector J15. Kontron modules are capable of
working in a wide range voltage input and therefore it's possible to connect module VCC on J15 parallel to ATX supply
J22 for the baseboard.
Please check the documentation of your product if a wide range voltage input is supported. Kontron Computer-onModules usually supports:
» COM Express® modules in mini size form factor:
4.75V to 14V
» COM Express® modules in compact and basic size form factor
8.5V to 18V
Additionally Kontron modules support single supply operation without standby voltage. To enable module single
supply mode open jumper:
» J66 to enable Baseboard's S5Eco mode
» J67 to disconnect 5VSB from the module
» J71 to disconnect Power Good (PWR_OK)
