Mini PCIe (Full Size)
The conga-IA4 offers an mPCIe slot on connector X6. This connector shares the SoC's PCIe 0 signals with connector X9 (x1 PCIe slot), via a
multiplexer.
The mPCIe slot supports both mPCIe and mSATA devices. When an mPCIe or mSATA device is attached to the mPCIe/mSATA slot (connector
X6), the SoC automatically detects the type of device that is attached (via pin 43 - the signal detect pin)
See section 5.10.2 "Mini PCIe (Half Size)" for the mini PCIe Pinout Description.
Connector Type
X6: PCIe mini card socket
Note
Pins 21 and 43 of the mPCIe card must be terminated to ground for card present detection and card type recognition respectively.
The PCIe x1 slot on connector X9 will not function if you insert a mini PCIe card into the mPCIe slot (connector X6). To make use of the PCIe
x1 slot, do not insert any mini PCIe device into the mPCIe slot (connector X6).
