The single PCI-express lanes that come out from Qseven
®
card edge connector can be alternatively routed to three (3) single PCI-e x1 lanes and one miniPCI-e
Slot. The switching between the single PCI-e x 16 slot and the different connectors is made using jumper JP1, which is a two-way P 2.54mm jumper.
According to the table above reported, when JP1 is not inserted, then three PCI-e x1 slots are singularly enabled.

Please be aware that PCI-e management on CQ7-A30 carrier board requires that the add-in card placed on this slot manages the Presence Detect
pins (B31/B17 and A1). More exactly, according to the PCI Express Card Electromechanical Specification v3.0, it is required that these pins are tied
together on the ADD-in Card (at least, it is needed that pin A1 is connected with pin B17 or pin B31).
In case that these pins are not tied together on the add-in card, then the carrier board will not acknowledge the presence of the card in the slot, and
will not enable the reference clock (and the add-in card will not work).
