6.1.7
PCI Express™
The controller hub integrated in the AMD R-Series SoC provides four x1 general purpose PCIe ports. The conga-TR3 offers three of these
ports on the A-B connector. The fourth PCIe port (port 3) is routed to the Intel i211 Ethernet controller for gigabit Ethernet support. This port
can optionally be routed to the A-B connector if the Ethernet interface is not required. This option however requires a customized conga-TR3
variant (assembly option).
The PCIe ports on the A-B connector are PCI Express™ Gen. 3 compliant and can be configured as 3 x1 or 1 x2 + 1x1 links.
6.1.8
ExpressCard™
The conga-TR3 supports the implementation of ExpressCards, which require the dedication of one USB port or a x1 PCI Express link for each
ExpressCard used.
6.1.9
VGA
The conga-TR3 does not support VGA interface.
6.1.10
LVDS
The conga-TR3 offers an LVDS interface on the A-B connector. The single/dual channel LVDS interface is provided by routing the onboard eDP
to LVDS bridge device (NXP PTN3460) to one of the dedicated DisplayPort interfaces (DP0) of the R-Series SoC.
The eDP to LVDS bridge processes incoming DisplayPort stream, converts the DP protocol to LVDS protocol and transmits the processed
stream in LVDS format. The bridge supports single and dual channel signalling with color depths of 18 bits or 24 bits per pixel and pixel clock
frequency up to 112 MHz. It also supports automatic panel detection via Embedded Panel Interface based on VESA EDID™ 1.3, with resolution
up to 1920x1200 in dual LVDS mode.
Note
The conga-TR3 can support eDP interface instead of the default LVDS interface by assembly option. The customized variant will be available
upon request but may require additional cost.
