RTC Battery 

For the occurrences when the module is not powered with an external power supply, on board there is a cabled coin Lithium Battery to supply, with a 3V voltage, 
the Real Time Clock embedded inside the SoC. 

Battery used is a cabled CR2032-LD Lithium coin-cell battery, with a nominal capacity of 220mAh. 

The battery is not rechargeable and can be connected to the board using dedicated connector CN3 which is a 2-pin 
p1.27 mm type MOLEX p/n 53261-0271 or equivalent, with pinout shown in the table on the left. 

Mating connector: MOLEX 51021-0200 receptacle with MOLEX 50079-8000 female crimp terminals. 

In case of exhaustion, the battery should only be replaced with devices of the same type. Always check the orientation before 
inserting and make sure that they are aligned correctly and are not damaged or leaking. 

Never allow the batteries to become short-circuited during handling. 

Batteries supplied with SBC-C41 are compliant to requirements of European Directive 2006/66/EC regarding batteries and accumulators. When putting out of order 
SBC-C41, remove the batteries from the board in order to collect and dispose them according to the requirement of the same European Directive above mentioned. 
Even when replacing the batteries, the disposal has to be made according to these requirements. 

2.3.4

 

Power rails naming convention 

In all the tables contained in this manual, Power rails are named with the following meaning: 

_RUN: Switched voltages, i.e. power rails that are active only when the board is in ACPI

s S0 (Working) state. Examples: +3.3V_RUN, +5V_RUN. 

_ALW: Always-on voltages, i.e. power rails that are active both in ACPI

s S0 (Working), S3 (Standby) and S5 (Soft Off) state. Examples: +5V_ALW, +3.3V_ALW. 

_U: unswitched ACPI S3 voltages, i.e. power rails that are active both in ACPI

s S0 (Working) and S3 (Standby) state. Examples: +1.5V_U 

Other suffixes are used for application specific power  rails, which are derived from same  voltage value of voltage switched rails, if it is not differently stated (for 
example, +5V

HDMI

 is derived from +5V_RUN, and so on).

CAUTION: handling batteries incorrectly or replacing with not-approved devices may present a risk of fire or explosion.
