1.8.2SFP+ Ports
The Extreme Edge Server has five SFP+ ports on the front panel, each of which is directly
connected to the Ethernet switch. The front panel cages can accept 10GBase-SR (short
range) or 10GBase-LR (long range) SFP+ modules. Higher powered modules may require
SFP+ modules with industrial temperature limits. These ports include Synchronous
Ethernet support through the Ethernet switch. The I2C bus from each SFP+ is connected
to the Glue CPLD.
1.8.3Synchronous Ethernet and IEEE 1588 Support
1.8.3.1Synchronous Ethernet PLL
System Overvie
The Extreme Edge Server has a Synchronous Ethernet (SyncE) PLL device on board that
allows a recovered clock from one SFP+ port to be used as the Ether net timing reference
for the Ethernet switch. This allows the other SFP+ ports to be synchronized to this timing
reference. The diagram below shows the SyncE clocking architecture.
62MC1600 Extreme Edge Server Installation and Use (6806870A02B)
The SyncE PLL has a free-running oscillator that can be used to generate a reference clock
when no recovered clock is available. When it is desired to use a recovered clock, the ports
used for primary and secondary clock recovery can be set up in the control registers of the
Ethernet switch. The primary and secondary recovered clocks go to the input multiplexer
of the SyncE PLL. The clock valid signals go to the input selection logic of the SyncE PLL
chip. In addition, the SyncE PLL chip has internal monitoring circuits to evaluate the quality
of the incoming clocks, and it can be set up for hitless, automatic switching between the
primary and secondary recovered clocks. It also supports holdover mode in case the
recovered clocks are temporarily lost.
The SyncE PLL can store up to four configurations (0-3). By default, configuration 0 is the
only one programmed and is loaded at power-on. Other configurations (1 - 3) could be
programmed into the device and selected via a register in the Glue CPLD. Upon the next
payload reset, the selected configuration would be loaded. The Glue CPLD retains this
selection as long as management power is present.
1.8.3.2IEEE 1588 Support
The Ethernet switch has time-stamping capability with support for IEEE 1588 1-step and
2-step transparent clock. No external hardware is required.
System Overview
1.9PCIe Slot
The Extreme Edge Server base board has a x16 PCIe right-angle connector that can
accommodate a standard or custom PCIe add-in card up to full height, 3/4 length.
Additional physical height is available beyond 0.8" if a customer application needs
additional heat sink height.
Connector lanes are routed as:
Lane 7:0 to PCIe 3.0 port of CPU1
Lanes 15:8 to PCIe 3.0 port of CPU2
Because of this routing, a standard PCIe add-in card with a single port can only connect to
CPU1, with a maximum link width of x8.
A custom PCIe add-in card with multiple ports on the PCIe connector can connect to both
CPUs. For example, a custom card may have x16 card edge, bifurcated into two x8 ports.
In this case, it can connect to CPU1 and CPU2, each with a maximum link width of x8. Refer
to Figure 1-5, High Level Broadwell-DE Block Diagram on page 53.
MC1600 Extreme Edge Server Installation and Use (6806870A02B)63
w
System Overview
NOTE: Because the PCIe slot has only one reset signal, which is generated by CPU1, this
custom routing has implications when a CPU is rebooted. If both CPUs have
already established a link to the installed PCIe card and it is necessary to reboot
one CPU, then both CPUs must be rebooted simultaneously to successfully reestablish PCIe links to both CPUs. If both are not rebooted simultaneously then
one CPU may not re-establish a PCIe link.
The PCIe slot receives 12V (5.5A max) and 3.3V (3.0A max) power from the base board.
The PCIe slot can accommodate a board with up to 75W power dissipation.
1.10Storage
The Extreme Edge Server includes three sockets for M.2 NVMe modules to provide mass
storage for the CPUs. Two of the M.2 modules are connected to CPU1 and one is
connected to CPU2. In each case they are connected via a PCIe Gen3 x4 interface to the
corresponding CPU. The sockets accept a 22mm x 80mm (2280) module with the M key.
Industrial temperature modules are required for the extended-temperature versions of the
Extreme Edge Server.

System Overview
1.14Power Supply
1.14.1Power Architecture
The figure below illustrates the high-level power architecture of the Extreme Edge Server.
When -48V power is applied the management power brick is enabled, which generates
3.3V to run the management circuits. At low temperatures, the heater is enabled. Once the
BMC has booted it waits for the power button to be pressed, after which it enables the
payload power POL converters and kicks off the CPU boot process. There is also an autopower-on mode where the BMC does not wait for the power button, but automatically
powers up the payload instead.
Figure 1-9 Power Architecture
System Overvie
1.14.2Payload Power-Up Sequence
When the power button is pressed, the 12V power rail is enabled and the 3.3V and 5V
standby power supplies automatically start up. The ME Engine and the CPU CPLD are
powered at this point.
The next step of the power-up sequence is initiated via a message from the BMC to the
CPU CPLD. This requires a connection between the BMC and the CPU CPLD/ME via
SMBus. The CPU CPLD implements registers for power up control. When a message to
power one of the CPUs is sent by the BMC via SMBus to these power control registers, the
CPU power-up sequence is initiated. The power-up sequence continues until the S0 state
is reached.
The processors on the card can be powered up/down independently. This requires a dual
power-up state machine design in the CPU CPLD.
80MC1600 Extreme Edge Server Installation and Use (6806870A02B)
1.14.3-48V Power Domain
The Extreme Edge Server accepts dual (redundant) -48V power inputs with a normal
operating range of -40V to -57V. This voltage range is considered Safety Extra Low Voltage
(SELV). The inputs are ORed together so that the system can run off either one. In addition,
there is an input filter to reduce conducted emissions.
Two isolated power bricks convert the -48V power to the logic domain. One is a 600W
quarter-brick that converts -48V to 12V as an intermediate bus voltage for the payload Point
of Load (POL) converters. The other is a 10W module that converts -48V to 3.3V as
management power for the BMC and Glue CPLD.
1.14.3.1Heater Circuit
The Extreme Edge Server includes an optional heater circuit that can extend the operating
temperature range of the product down to -40°C. The heater control circuit is autonomous.
The Extreme Edge Server is required to be installed inside a closed, weather protected
location. For installation sites outside of a building, a sealed cabinet is recommended. For
cold weather start-up, wind conditions may overwhelm the server's designed-in heating
elements. In locations where cold airflow is present, the customer may be required to
provide additional heating to the cabinet.
The heater control circuit continuously monitors the heat sink temperature to make sure it
is within the operating temperature range. If it ever approaches the lower operating
temperature limit, the heater turns on again to keep sensitive devices within their operating
temperature range.
System Overview
1.15Clock Structure
1.15.1Processor Clocks
The Broadwell-DE SoC implements Full Integrated Clocking mode as the platform clock
architecture. In the Full Integrated Clocking mode, a 25MHz crystal oscillator provides the
input clock to the SoC which then internally generates the output clocks that are required
by all the platform components.
1.15.2Other Clocks
The 156MHz clock for the Ethernet switch is provided by the SyncE PLL as described
previously in this document.

System Overview
1.16Reset Structure
The platform supports two types of reset, namely cold reset and warm reset. Cold reset is
the first time when the platform asserts PWRGOOD_CPU and asserts RESET_CPU_N to
the core. Warm reset is typically a platform wide event and is indicated by assertion and
deassertion of the RESET_CPU_N signal on the socket while PWRGOOD_CPU remains
asserted.
1.17Debugging Support
1.17.1POST Code Indicators
The Broadwell-DE processor provides its BIOS POST codes via the LPC interface, which
are then decoded by the CPU CPLD. A POST code indicator is provided using discrete
LEDs placed on the PCB.
1.17.2Dip Switches
The board includes several DIP switches for factory use. All DIP switches should stay in
their OFF positions (default).

2.5Mounting Options
The Extreme Edge Server is designed for installation in an IP55/IP65 19" outdoor cabinet
or a standard 19" rack and is compliant to an IP20 Ingress Protection Rating.
The Extreme Edge Server is required to be installed inside a closed, weather protected
location. For installation sites outside of a building, a sealed cabinet is recommended. For
cold weather start-up, wind conditions may overwhelm the server’s designed-in heating
elements. In locations where cold airflow is present and where the input voltage is below
nominal, the customer may be required to provide additional heating to the cabinet.
When installing the system, you must allow for 50mm (2 inches) on each side of the server
for proper airflow.
Personal or System Damage
Unstable system installation in a rack can cause the rack to tip over. If your system
is the only one in the rack, make sure to mount the system in the lowest part of the
rack. If other systems are installed in one rack, start with the heaviest component at
the bottom.
If the rack is equipped with stabilizing devices, make sure that they are installed and
extended so that the rack is secure.Then proceed to mount or service the system.

Using the Query Operation, FCU returns firmware information for a specific device (if used
with -d) or information about all firmware devices.
To find the current BIOS version before upgrading it with a new version, use the following
command:
$ fcu -q
The following screen shows a typical output when the $fcu -q command is executed.
Software Configuration
The above screen depicts the following information:
Device #00 represents the CPLD and the firmware version is 00.01.02.
Device #01 represents CPU and the firmware version is 0.0.00000003.
Show Operation
Show Operation does not access any device. It only operates with the firmware image and
it shows the metadata, which is part of the image. Furthermore, it validates the firmware
image to compare the checksum part of the metadata against the checksum of the raw
image. The output of the Show Operation is similar to the output of the Query Operation. A
sample output of the BIOS image is shown below.
