Features

 

• Watchdog 

Timer

The Watchdog Timer function allows your application to regularly “clear” the system at the set 

time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it will reset at the set time interval so 

that your system will continue to operate.

• DDR4

DDR4 delivers increased system bandwidth and improves performance. The advantages of 

DDR4 provide an extended battery life and improve the performance at a lower power than 

DDR3/DDR2.

• Graphics

The integrated Intel

®

 UHD graphics engine delivers an excellent blend of graphics performance 

and features to meet business needs. It provides excellent video and 3D graphics with out-

standing graphics responsiveness. These enhancements deliver the performance and compat-

ibility needed for today’s and tomorrow’s business applications. Supports 1 x LVDS/eDP (eDP 

available upon request), 1 x HDMI, and 2 x DP++ interfaces for display outputs.

• PCI 

Express

PCI Express is a high bandwidth I/O infrastructure that possesses the ability to scale speeds 

by forming multiple lanes. The PCI Express architecture also supports high performance graph-

ics infrastructure by enhancing the capability of a PCIe x4.

• Serial 

ATA

Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliant with SATA 1.0a specification. With speed of 

up to 6Gb/s (SATA 3.0), it improves hard drive performance faster than the standard parallel 

ATA whose data transfer rate is 100MB/s.  

• Gigabit 

LAN

Two Intel

®

 Gigabit LAN controllers (Intel

®

 I211AT PCIe and Intel

®

 I219V PCIe) support up to 

1Gbps data transmission. (CS101-H310)

Two Intel

®

 Gigabit LAN controllers (Intel

®

 I211AT PCIe and Intel

®

 I219LM PCIe) support up to 

1Gbps data transmission. (CS101-Q370/C246)

• Audio

The Realtek ALC887-VD2-CG audio codec provides 7.1-channel High Definition audio output.

• Wake-On-LAN

This feature allows the network to remotely wake up a Soft Power Down (Soft-Off) PC. It is 

supported via the onboard LAN port or via a PCI LAN card that uses the PCI PME (Power Man-

agement Event) signal. However, if your system is in the Suspend mode, you can power-on 

the system only through an IRQ or DMA interrupt.

 

• Wake-On-USB

This function allows you to use a USB keyboard or USB mouse to wake up a system from the 

S3 (STR - Suspend To RAM) state. 

• RTC 

Timer

The RTC installed on the system board allows your system to automatically power-on on the 

set date and time. 

• ACPI 

STR

The system board is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) 

specification. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to implement Power Manage-

ment and Plug-and-Play with operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management. 

ACPI when enabled in the Power Management Setup will allow you to use the Suspend to RAM 

function

.

With the Suspend to RAM function enabled, you can power-off the system at once by pressing 

the power button or selecting “Standby” when you shut down Windows

®

 without having to go 

through the sometimes tiresome process of closing files, applications and operating system. 

This is because the system is capable of storing all programs and data files during the entire 

operating session into RAM (Random Access Memory) when it powers-off. The operating ses-

sion will resume exactly where you left off the next time you power-on the system.

 

•  Power Failure Recovery

When power returns after an AC power failure, you may choose to either power-on the system 

manually or let the system power-on automatically. 

• USB

The CS101-Q370/C246 board supports the new USB 3.1 Gen 2. It is capable of running at a 

maximum transmission speed of up to 10 Gbit/s (1.2 GB/s) and is faster than USB 3.1 Gen 

1 (5 Gbit/s, or 625 MB/s), USB 2.0 (480 Mbit/s, or 60 MB/s) and USB 1.1 (12Mb/s). USB 3.1 

reduces the time required for data transmission, reduces power consumption, and is backward 

compatible with USB 2.0. It is a marked improvement in device transfer speeds between your 

computer and a wide range of simultaneously accessible external Plug and Play peripherals.
