Preface

Preface

As a member of PHYTEC's new phyBOARD® product family, the phyBOARD-Regor AM335x is
one of a series of PHYTEC System on Modules (SBCs) that offer off-the-shelf solutions for a
huge variety of industrial applications. The new phyBOARD
series of extremely compact embedded control engines featuring various processing
performance classes. All phyBOARDs are rated for industry, cost optimized, and offer long­term availability. The phyBOARD-Regor AM335x is one of currently six industrial-grade
carrier boards which are suitable for series production and that have been realized in
accordance with PHYTEC's new SBCplus concept. It is an excellent example of this concept.

For easy implementation into industrial control system racks, the
phyBOARD-Regor AM335x comes in a housing with integrated DIN-Rail sockets.
Furthermore, the board is equipped with connectors allowing for interconnection to
commonly used industrial interfaces.

SBCplus Concept

The SBCplus concept was developed to meet many slight differences in customer requirements with little development effort and thus greatly reduce the time-to-market.

The core of the SBCplus concept is the SBC design library (a kind of construction set) that
consists of a great number of function blocks (so-called "building blocks") which are
constantly refined. The recombination of these function blocks allows PHYTEC to develop a
customer specific SBC within a short time. Thus, PHYTEC is able to deliver production-ready
custom Single Board Computers within a few weeks at very low costs.

The already developed SBCs, such as the phyBOARD-Regor, each represent an intersection
of different customer wishes. Because of this, all necessary interfaces are already available
on the standard versions. This allows the user to integrate the phyBOARD in a large number
of applications without modification. For any necessary detail adjustments, extension
connectors are available to enable adding a wide variety of functions.

Customized Expandability from PHYTEC

Common interface signals route to standard connector interfaces on the carrier board such
as Ethernet, CAN, RS-232, and audio. Due to the easily modifiable phyBOARD design
approach (see "

SBCplus concept

"), these plug-and-play interfaces can be readily adapted

into customer-specific variants according to end system requirements.

®

product family consists of a

phyBOARD-Regor AM335x [PB-01802-xxx]

OEM Implementation

Implementation of an OEM-able SBC subassembly as the "core" of an embedded design
allows for increased focus on hardware peripherals and firmware without expending
resources to "re-invent" microcontroller circuitry. Furthermore, much of the value of the

®

phyBOARD

SBC lies in its layout and test.

Software Support

Production-ready Board Support Packages (BSPs) and Design Services for our hardware will further reduce development time and risk, while at the same time allowing for increased focus on the product expertise.

The phyBOARD-Regor is equipped with a 5-pole Phoenix Contact MINI COMBICON base strip

3.5 mm connector (X1) suitable for a single 24 V ±10 % supply voltage.

The required current load capacity depends on the specific configuration of the phyCORE
mounted on the phyBOARD-Regor, the particular interfaces enabled while executing
software, as well as whether an optional expansion board is connected to the carrier
board.

The permissible input voltage is +24 V DC ±10 % at the 5-pole Phoenix Contact MINI
COMBICON base strip X1 or, alternatively, at the CARD Edge connector X7 (

section 2.2.8

). A

24 V adapter with a minimum supply of 1A is recommended to supply the board.

Both Ethernet interfaces are configured as 10/100Base-T networks. The LEDs for LINK
(green) and SPEED (yellow) indication are integrated in the connector. Both Ethernet
transceivers support HP Auto-MDIX, eliminating the need for a direct connect LAN or a
cross-over path cable. They detect the TX and RX pins of the connected device and
automatically configure the PHY TX and RX pins accordingly.

2.2.4.1 MAC Address

In a computer network such as a local area network (LAN), the MAC (Media Access Control)
address is a unique computer hardware number. For a connection to the Internet, a table is
used to convert the assigned IP number to the hardware’s MAC address.

In order to guarantee that the MAC address is unique, all addresses are managed in a central location. The MAC address of the phyBOARD-Regor is saved on the CPU (AM335x).

The phyBOARD-Regor provides four digital IOs that are designed for processing DC-signals
with up to 24 V DC. The digital output voltage depends on the input voltage of the board.
Input and output signals are routed to the CPU (AM335x) through two discrete
optocouplers for galvanic isolation. Thus, it is possible to write and read the status of every
single GPIO of the phyBOARD-Regor simultaneously.

4.1 Product Power Rating

The current ratings and power consumption of the phyBOARD-Regor are shown in

Table 17

.
The measurements are performed using the NAND Flash as the boot source. The ratings
given in the table can vary depending on different operating and load conditions.

Table 17: Power ratings of the phyBOARD-Regor

4.2 Product Temperature Grades

It is mandatory to determine if the use case suites the temperature range
of the chosen module (see below). If necessary, a heat spreader can be

The feasible operating temperature of the SOM greatly depends on the use case of your
software application. Modern high performance microcontrollers and other active parts
like the ones described within this manual are usually rated by qualifications based on
tolerable junction or case temperatures. Therefore, making a general statement about
minimum or maximum ambient temperature ratings for the described SOM is not possible.

However, the above mentioned parts are available in different temperature qualification
levels by the producers. PHYTEC offers SOMs in different configurations, making use of
those temperature qualifications. To indicate which level of temperature qualification is
used for active and passive parts of a SOM configuration, PHYTEC has categorized SOMs in
three temperature grades.

These grades describe a set of components which, in combination, add up to a useful set of product options with different temperature grades. This enables PHYTEC to make use of cost optimizations depending on the required temperature range.

In order to determine the right temperature grade and whether the minimum or maximum qualification levels are met within an application, the following conditions must be defined when considering the use case:

Table 18

describes these grades in detail.
