1.6 Tips on Safety

Improper or incorrect handling of the product can substantially reduce its life span.

1.7 Symbols and Typographic Conventions

Table 1: Terms and Conventions
Symbol Meaning
This symbol represents the handling of electrostatic-sensitive modules and / or components. These components are often damaged / destroyed by the transmission of a voltage higher than about 50 V. A human body usually only experiences electrostatic discharges above approximately 3,000 V.
This symbol indicates the possible use of voltages higher than 24 V. Please note the relevant statutory regulations in this regard. Non-compliance with these regulations can lead to serious damage to your health and also cause
damage / destruction of the component.
This symbol indicates a possible source of danger. Acting against the procedure described can lead to possible damage to your health and / or cause damage / destruction of the material used.
This symbol represents important details or aspects for working with TQ-products.
Command
A font with fixed-width is used to denote commands, contents, file names, or menu items.

1.8 Handling and ESD Tips

General handling of your TQ-products
The TQ-product may only be used and serviced by certified personnel who have taken note of the information, the safety regulations in this document and all related rules and regulations.
A general rule is: do not touch the TQ-product during operation. This is especially important when switching on, changing jumper settings or connecting other devices without ensuring beforehand that the power supply of the system has been switched off.
Violation of this guideline may result in damage / destruction of the TQMxE39S and be dangerous to your health.
Improper handling of your TQ-product would render the guarantee invalid.
Proper ESD handling
The electronic components of your TQ-product are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Always wear antistatic clothing, use ESD-safe tools, packing materials etc., and operate your TQ-
product in an ESD-safe environment. Especially when you switch modules on, change jumper settings, or connect other devices.

1.9 Naming of Signals

A hash mark (#) at the end of the signal name indicates a low-active signal. Example: RESET# If a signal can switch between two functions and if this is noted in the name of the signal, the low-active function is marked with
a hash mark and shown at the end. Example: C / D# If a signal has multiple functions, the individual functions are separated by slashes when they are important for the wiring. The identification of the individual functions follows the above conventions. Example: WE2# / OE#

1.10 Further Applicable Documents / Presumed Knowledge

2. INTRODUCTION

The TQ module TQMxE39S is based on the latest generation of Intel
®
Atom, Pentium
“Apollo Lake”). It achieves a new level of computing performance, security and media processing performance in a very compact form factor to empower real-time computing, industrial automation, digital surveillance, aviation, medical, retail and more.
The TQMxE39S corresponds to the internationally established SGET standard SMARC (V2.0). 6 USB ports – including 2 USB 3.0 – and up to 4 PCIe lanes natively supported by the CPUs enable high bandwidth communication with peripherals and additional interfaces on the carrier board. With the latest Intel® graphics processor integrated, the TQMxE39S delivers 4K high resolution graphics output, immersive 3D processing and also greatly increased video encode and playback performance.
Time coordinated computing capabilities enable time synchronized processes within IoT networks and industrial control applications. On-board eMMC up to 64 Gbyte and the option for LVDS or native eDP enable flexibility and reduce overall BOM cost.
The integrated TQMx86 board controller enables high flexibility through “flexiCFG” and supports thermal management, watchdog, 16550 compatible UARTs I2C controllers and GPIO handling. Combined with options like conformal coating and optimized cooling solutions the TQMxE39S perfectly fits for mobile, low power, low profile and battery driven applications in multiple vertical markets like industrial automation, medical devices, transportation and others.

3.2 Electrical Characteristics

3.2.1 Supply Voltage Characteristics

The TQMxE39S supports an input voltage from 4.75 V to 5.25 V.
The following supply voltages are specified at the SMARC connector:
Main Power Rail: 4.75 V to 5.25 V max input ripple: ±100 mV
VCC_RTC: 2.0 V to 3.3 V max input ripple: ±20 mV
The input voltages shall rise from 10 % of nominal to 90 % of nominal within 0.1 ms to 20 ms (0.1 ms ≤ Rise Time ≤ 20 ms). There must be a smooth and continuous ramp of each DC output voltage from 10 % to 90 % of its final set point within the
regulation band.
User's Manual l TQMxE39S UM 0101 l © 2019 TQ-Group Page 7

3.2.2 Power Consumption

The values below show voltage and power consumption details for the TQMxE39S. The values were measured using the TQMxE39S and the MB-SMARC-1 carrier board. The measurement was done with two power supplies, one for the TQMxE39S and the other one for the MB-SMARC-1 carrier
board. The power consumption of each TQMxE39S was measured running Windows® 10, 64 bit and a four chip LPDDR4 configuration (4
× 2 Gbyte). All measurements were done at a temperature of +25 °C and an input voltage of +5.0 V. The power consumption of the TQMxE39S depends on the application, the mode of operation and the operating system. The power consumption was measured under the following conditions:
Suspend mode:
The system is in S5/S4 state, Ethernet port is disconnected.
Windows 10, 64 bit, idle:
Desktop idles, Ethernet port is disconnected.
Windows 10, 64 bit, maximum load:
These values show the maximum worst case power consumption, achieved by using the Intel® stress test tool to apply maximum load to the cores only, and cores plus graphics engine, Ethernet port is connected (1000 Mbps Speed)
Windows 10, 64 bit, Suspend Mode:
The system is in S5/S4 state, Ethernet port is disconnected.
The following table shows the power consumption with different CPU configurations.
Table 3: TQMxE39S Power Consumption
Module
Suspend (OS shut down) Win10, 64 bit idle Win10, 64 bit max. load
Mode
Intel® Pentium® N4200 0.33 W 2 W TBD
Intel® Celeron® N3350 0.33 W 2 W TBD
E3930 with 8 Gbyte LPDDR4 0.33 W 2 W 8 W
E3940 with 8 Gbyte LPDDR4 0.33 W 2 W 11.5 W
E3950 with 8 Gbyte LPDDR4 0.33 W 2 W 16 W
Note: Power requirement
The power supplies on the carrier board for the TQMxE39S must be designed with enough reserve. The carrier board should provide at least twice the maximum workload power of the TQMxE39S. The TQMxE39S supports several low-power states. The power supply of the carrier board has to be
stable even with no load.
