Real-Time Clock
The CCM-BOOGIE has a time-of-day clock and 100-year calendar, integrated into the ICH9. A battery
on the board keeps the clock current when the computer is turned off. The CCM uses a BR2032
lithium battery soldered in the board, giving an autonomy of more than 5 years. Under normal
conditions, replacement should be superfluous during lifetime of the board.
Universal Serial Bus (USB)
The CCM-BOOGIE is provided with eleven USB ports, all of them are USB 2.0 capable. Two USB
interfaces are routed to front panel connectors, two ports are feed to the expansion board interface
connectors J_EXP, four to the high speed expansion connector J_HSE, and three ports are optionally
available for rear I/O across the J2/P2
CompactPCI
connector.
The front panel USB connectors can source up to 0.5A/5V each, over-current protected by two
electronic switches. Protection for the USB ports on the expansion interfaces and on the rear I/O
connector is located on expansion boards like CCO-CONCERT-MARIACHI and the CCT-RIO respective.
The USB controllers are integrated into the ICH9.
LPC Super-I/O Interface
In a modern system, legacy ports as PS/2 keyboard/mouse, COM1/2 and LPT have been replaced by
USB and Ethernet connectivity. The 1.4MB floppy disk drive has been swapped against CD- or DVD-
RW drives, attached to a SATA connector, or USB memory sticks. Hence, the CCM-BOOGIE is virtually
provided with all necessary I/O ports. However, for compatibility purposes the CCM is additionally
equipped with a simple Super-I/O chip, for optional rear I/O of PS/2 keyboard/mouse and COM1 (TTL
level only) across the J2/P2 CPCI connector. The Super-I/O controller resides on the local LPC bus (LPC
= Low Pin Count interface standard), which is a serialized ISA bus replacement.
As an alternative, EKF offers multiple expansion boards to the CCM-BOOGIE, featuring all classic
Super-I/O functionality. For example the CCO-CONCERT is a 3U Eurocard with a 4HP (single) width
front panel. Access to the connectors PS/2 (mouse, keyboard), COM, USB and audio in/out is given
directly from the front panel. The CCO-CONCERT connects to the CCM-BOOGIE across the connectors
PEXPT or PEXPB. Usually the CCH is attached to the top of the CCM-BOOGIE. Nevertheless bottom
side mounting is possible on customers request.
SPI Flash
The BIOS is stored in two flash devices with Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI). 4MByte of BIOS code,
AMT firmware and user data may be stored nonvolatile in these SPI flashs (up to 16MByte of flash
space is available on request).
The SPI flash contents can be reprogrammed (if suitable) by a DOS or Linux based tool. This program
and the latest CCM-BOOGIE BIOS binary are available from the EKF website. Read carefully the
enclosed instructions. If the programming procedure fails e.g. caused by a power interruption, the
CCM-BOOGIE may no more be operable. In this case you would possibly have to send in the board,
because the flash devices are directly soldered to the PCB and cannot be changed by the user.
