Hardware Features
Expansion Port
The 12-position terminal block located on the secondary side of
the enclosure provides an expansion port that can be easily
reconfigured for your application. In the standard configuration,
this port has the following pin assignment:
Pin Name
Type Description
Vector SBC
1 LINEOUT_L O Line out – Left channel
J5.1
2 LO_SENSE
I Line out sense (note 1)
J5.2
3 LINEOUT_R O Line out – Right channel
J5.3
4 GND_HDA
P Analog ground
J5.4
5 SPKR2+
O Speaker 2 – Positive signal
J4.1
6 SPKR2-
O Speaker 2 – Negative signal
J4.2
7 SPKR1+
O Speaker 1 – Positive signal
J4.3
8 SPKR1-
O Speaker 1 – Negative signal
J4.4
9 MIC_IN_L
I Microphone– Left channel
J6.1
10 MIC_SENSE I Microphone plug in sense
(note 2)
J6.2
11 MIC_IN_R
I Microphone– Right channel
J6.3
12 GND_HDA
P Analog ground
J6.4
Notes:
1. The default audio is the stereo speaker output.
Tying LO_SENSE to ground activates the Line out pins.
2. By default, the microphone input is disabled.
To enable, short MIC_SENSE to ground.
USB Host Ports
Two ports are general-purpose USB host ports (500 mA max),
while two ports support high-current, plug-in modules (1 A max).
VGA Output
The VGA output supports a standard monitor. This output also
provides a Display Data Channel interface (DDC_SDA pin 12 and
DDC_SCL pin 15) for monitor “Plug and Play”.
Ethernet
Network settings are configured to operate with a DHCP server.
Serial Ports
The Vector ICE provides two EIA-232/485 serial ports with the
following pin assignment on the serial port plugs:
