Overview
The product described in this manual is
СРС
1600, a
РС
/104-Plus single board computer designed
for mission critical embedded systems operating in harsh environments. All components including
memory are soldered onboard, thus providing superior shock/vibration resistance.
The board is based on Intel® Pentium® M processor in the
m
FCBGA479M package operating at
frequencies of up to 2.0 GHz, and a Processor Side Bus (PSB) running at 400 or 533 MHz. The
Intel Pentium M processor core with integrated 64 KB L1 and up to 2048 KB L2 cache provides its
unique performance to power consumption ratio.
The CPC1600 chipset comprising 82915GM GMCH and ICH6M provides a number of integrated
modern communication and storage interfaces, thus eliminating the need for additional external
controllers. The chipset also incorporates DDR2 memory interface. The board can bear up to 1 GB
of PC4200 memory soldered onboard.
The board has wide range of interfaces for peripheral devices: six USB 2.0 and standard video
interfaces, dual Gigabit Ethernet controller wired via PCI Express 4x bus. The chipset’s built-in
video controller incorporates a 2D/3D graphics accelerator with up to 64 MB memory shared with
system for enhanced graphics performance with VGA CRT-display and LVDS TFT panel.
CPC1600 supports storage devices with IDE UltraATA33 and CompactFlash interfaces, up to two
SerialATA channels. The board also has a 32 MB solid-state disk for embedded OS.
Compliant to PC/104-Plus standard, the board is equipped with 16-bit ISA and 32-bit PCI
connectors.
The board is designed to support both conductive and convective (passive or active) heat sinking
and is manufactured in two versions – for industrial temperature range (–40°C to +85°C) and for
commercial temperature range (0°C to +70°C). Extra reliability of CPC1600 is provided by the
hardware monitoring subsystem and built-in watchdog timer. This prevents accidental damage to
the hardware under unfavourable thermal conditions.
CPC1600 is manufactured using high quality embedded industrial system components specially
selected to ensure their long term availability.
The board is compatible with the Windows® 2000/XP/XP Embedded, QNX v.4.20, 6.0 and Linux®
2.4.20, 2.6.11 operating systems.
