Introduction

Introduction

This manual describes the KTQ77/Flex boar d m ade by KONT RO N T echnolog y A/S. T he board will also
be denoted KTQ77 in this manual.

nd

The KTQ77 board is based on the Q7 7 chipset, support 2
and 4Core processors and also Pentium and Celeron processors. See “Processor Support Table for
more specific details.

Use of this Users Guide implies a basic knowledge of PC-AT hard- and software. This manual is
focused on describing the KTQ77 board’s speci al features and is not inte nded to be a standard PC -AT
textbook.

New users are recom mended to study the short inst allation procedure stated in the f ollowing chapter
before switching-on the power.

Note. LPT and LVDS are optionally for future variants.
All configuration and setup of the CPU board is either done automaticall y or manually by the user via

the BIOS setup menus. Only exception is the “Load Default BIOS Settings” Jumper.

Warning: When mounting the board to chassis etc. please notice that the board contains

without reasonable care. A damaged component can result in malfunction or no function at all.

Installation procedure

Note: To clear all CMOS settings, including Password protection, move the Clear CMOS jumper in the
Secure CMOS is disabled.

1 Installation procedure

1.1 Installing the board

To get the board running, follow these steps. If the board shipped from KONTRON has already
components like DRAM, CPU and cooler mounted, then relevant steps below, can be skipped.

1. Turn off the PSU (Power Supply Unit)

2. Insert the DRAM(s) (UDIMM 240pin)

Be careful to push it in the slot(s) b efore locking th e tabs. For a list of approved DRAM contact your
Distributor or FAE. See also chapter “System Memory Support”.

3. Install the processor

The CPU is ke yed and will onl y mount in t he CPU sock et in one way. Use finger to open/ close t he
CPU socket. Refer to supported processor overview for details.

4. Cooler Installation

Use heat paste or adhesive pads between CPU and cooler and connect the Fan electrically to the
FAN_CPU connector.

5. Connecting Interfaces

Insert all external cables for hard disk , keyboard etc. A m onitor must be connected i n order to be
able change CMOS settings.

6. Connect and turn on PSU

Connect PSU to the board by the ATX/BTXPWR and the 4-pin ATX+12V connectors.

7. Power Button

The PWRBTN_IN must be toggled to start the Power supply; this is done by shorting pins 16
(PWRBTN_IN) and pin 18 (GND) on the FRONTPNL connector (see Connector description). A
“normally open” switch can be connected via the FRONTPNL connector.

8. BIOS Setup

Enter the BIOS setup by pressing the <Del> key during boot up.
Enter Exit Menu and Load Optimal Defaults.
Refer to the “BIOS Configuration / Setup“ section of this manual for details on BIOS setup .

Clear CMOS position (with or without power) for ~10 sec. This will Load Failsafe Defaults and make sure

9. Mounting the board to chassis

When fixing the Motherb oard on a chassis it is recomm ended using screws with integrated washer and
having diameter of ~7mm.

Note: Do not use washers with teeth, as they can damage the PCB and may cause short circuits.

PSU) or leave the Power Connectors unconnected while configuring the board. Otherwise
components (DRAM, LAN cards etc.) might get damaged. Make sure PSU has 3.3V monitoring
watchdog (standard ATX PSU feature), running the board without 3.3V will damage the board
within minutes.

Installation procedure

1.2 Requirement according to IEC60950

Users of KTQ77 family boards should take care when designing chassis interface connectors in order to
fulfil the IEC60950 standard:

plane like the VCC plane:
To protect the external power lines of the peripheral devices , the customer has to take care about:

• That the wires have suitable rating to withstand the maximum available power.

• That the enclosure of the peripheral device fulfils the fire protecting requirements of IEC60950.

Lithium Battery precautions:

CAUTION!

Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly

replaced.

Replace only with same or equivalent type

2.4 System Memor y support

The KTQ77/FLEX has four DDR3 UDIMM sockets. The sockets support the following memory features:

• 4x DDR3 1.5V UDIMM 240-pin

• Dual-channel with 2 UDIMM per channel

• Single/dual rank unbuffered 1333/1600MT/s (PC3-10600/PC3-12800)

The supported 2

From 1GB and up to 4x 8G B.
Note: Less than 4GB displayed in System Properties using 32bit OS
(Shared Video Memory/PCI resources is subtracted)

• SPD timings supported

• ECC not supported

The installed DDR3 DIMM should sup port Ser ial Presenc e Detect ( SPD) da ta str ucture. This allows t he
BIOS to configure the memory controller for optimal performance. If non-SPD memory is used, the
BIOS will attempt to configure the memory settings, but performance and reliability may be impacted.

Memory Operating Frequencies

Regardless of the DIMM type used, the memory frequency will either be equal to or less than the
processor system bus frequency. For example, if DDR3 1600 m emor y is used with a 1333 MHz s ys te m
bus frequency processor, the m emory clock will op erate at 666 MHz. The table below list s the resulting
operating memory frequencies based on the combination of DIMMs and processors.

All KTQ77 versions support analogue VG A and digital displ ay ports (2x DP) via the Intel ® Q77 Chipset.

Optionally LVDS support.
The DP interface supp orts the Displa yPort 1.2 specificatio n. The PCH supports High-bandwidth Digital

Content Protection for high definition content playback over di gital interfaces. T he PCH also integrates
audio codecs for audio support over DP interfaces.

Up to three displays (any three display outputs) can be activated at the same time and be used to
implement dual independent display support and/or mirror display support. PCIe and PCI graphics cards
can be used to replace on-board graphics or in combination with on-board graphi c s .

System Specification

2.6 Power Consumption

In order to ensure safe operation of the board, the ATX12V power supply must monitor the supply
voltage and shut do wn if the supplies are out of ran ge – refer to the hardware manual for the actual
power supply specification. The KTQ77 board is powered through the ATX/BTX connector and
ATX+12V connector. Both connectors must be used in according to the ATX12V PSU standard.

The requirements to the supply voltages are as follows:

VCC3.3 3.135V 3.465V

Vcc 4.75V 5.25V

+12V 11.4V 12.6V
–12V –13.2V –10.8V

-5V -5,50V -4.5V Not required for the KTQ77 board

5VSB 4.75V 5.25V

More detailed Static Power Consumption

On the following pages the power consumption of the KTQ77 Board is measured under:

5.2 Ethernet Connect ors (IO Area)

The KTQ77 boards supports three channels of 1 0/10 0/ 1000 Mb Et her ne t , one (ETH1) is b as ed on Intel®
Lewisville 82579LM Gigabit PHY with AMT 8.0 support and the two other controllers (ETHER2 &
ETHER3) are based on Intel® Hartwell 82574L PCI Express controller.

In order to achieve the specified performance of the Ethernet port, minimum Category 5 twisted pair
cables must be used with 10/100MB and minimum Category 5E, 6 or 6E with 1Gb LAN networks.

The signals for the Ethernet ports are as follows:

Signal Description

MDI[0]+ / MDI[0]- In MDI mode, this is the first pair in 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DA+/- pair, and is

the transmit pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.
In MDI crossover mode, this pair acts as the BI_DB+/- pair, and is the receive

pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.

MDI[1]+ / MDI[1]- In MDI mode, this is the second pair in 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DB+/- pair, and

is the receive pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.
In MDI crossover mode, this pair acts as the BI_DA+/- pair, and is the transmit

pair in 10Base-T and 100Base-TX.

MDI[2]+ / MDI[2]-

In MDI mode, this is the third pair in 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DC+/- pair.
In MDI crossover mode, this pair acts as the BI_DD+/- pair.

MDI[3]+ / MDI[3]-

Note: MDI = Media Dependent Interface.
Ethernet connector 1 (ETH1) is mounted together with USB Ports 4 and 5.

Ethernet connector 2 (ETH2) is mounted together with and above Ethernet connector 3 (ETH3).
The pinout of the RJ45 connectors is as follows:

In MDI mode, this is the fourth pair in 1000Base-T, i.e. the BI_DD+/- pair.
In MDI crossover mode, this pair acts as the BI_DC+/- pair.
