2. Description and Specifications
The xPort Pro embedded device server is Lantronix’s most powerful, self-contained
embedded networking module. Footprint compatible with the popular xPort product
and running either Linux or the Lantronix Evolution OS® operating systems, the xPort
Pro eliminates the complexity of designing network connectivity into a product and
allows you to deploy advanced applications on the edge device itself. The thumbsized xPort Pro provides everything you need in a single embedded solution. It
effortlessly handles demanding applications with the power of a high-speed,
advanced architecture 32-bit processor. The ample built-in memory allows virtually
unlimited flexibility for customization and application enablement.
xPort Pro provides bullet-proof security by offering a variety of robust data encryption
and authentication options. What’s more, the option to run Linux, with IPv6 built in,
enables you to deploy custom applications and take advantage of the large feature
libraries available for Linux developers. Critical agency certification has already been
completed by Lantronix, reducing your test time and speeding time-to-market.
The xPort Pro Features
The xPort Pro contains a 32-bit Freescale® processor, with 8/16 megabytes (MB) of
SDRAM (see Table 2-1), 16 MB of Flash and an integrated Broadcom® 10/100 PHY.

The xPort Pro has a serial port compatible with data rates up to 921600 bps. The
serial signals (pins 4–8) are 3.3V CMOS logic level. The serial interface pins include
+3.3V, ground, and reset. The serial signals connect to an internal UART driven at
3.3V. For applications requiring an external cable running with RS-232 or RS422/485
voltage levels, the xPort Pro must interface to a serial transceiver chip. We supply an
RS-232 transceiver on the xPort Universal Demo Board for this purpose.
Note: The standard baud rate of 460800 bps is not supported.

Recommended PCB Layout
The hole pattern and mounting dimensions for the xPort Pro device server are shown
in the following drawing. For proper heat dissipation, it is recommended that the PCB
have approximately 1 square inch of copper attached to the shield tabs. The shield
tabs are an important source of heat sinking for the device.
The xPort Pro shield is considered “chassis ground” and should be separate from
“signal ground”. ESD near the xPort Pro at the panel opening will likely jump to the
shield.
We recommend using high voltage (~200V), low ESR, 0.01uF capacitors to connect
chassis ground to both signal ground and 3.3V. This will cause any voltage spike
from ESD to be imparted equally to both signal ground and 3.3V with no net voltage
increase between 3.3V and signal ground. For the highest level of ESD protection of
the xPort Pro, it is recommended that the shield not be directly connected to signal
GND. The metal shield fingers around the xPort Pro’s RJ45 should physically contact
the product housing when the housing is metal, or metallic coated.
The shield is also a heat sink for the internal 32-bit Processor. As in all heat sinking
applications, the more copper connected to the heat sink the better. Adding 1 inch
square inch of copper flood on the PCB is adequate to allow the xPort Pro to work up
to +85°C. If the application does not expect to see temperatures up to +85°C the
heat sink may be smaller than 1 square inch.
