The PWR_Button line (Pins 9 and 10 of J310) of the SBC is connected to the
power switch on the A35 Power Switchboard through the A30 Front Panel
board. When the power switch is pressed, the SBC causes the PSON# signal to
go Low. When the PSON# signal becomes Low, Q10 turns on and +12 V main
power is also on. When the power switch is pressed again, its status is sent to
BIOS and the PSON# signal turns High. This circuit includes a +12 V to +5 V
DC-DC converter, a +12 V to +3.3 V converter, and a +12 V to --12 V converter.
There are four connectors in the interconnect circuit: J230, J240, J290, and J310.
J230 is used to connect the board to the LCD interface on the CPU board. J290
is used to connect the board to COM2 on the CPU board. J310 is used to connect
the board to the hard disk drive LED and reset/power button on the CPU board.
J240 is used to connect the board to the A30 Front Panel board. This circuit also
has a RS-232C level converter.
U700 (PIC Micro) controls the internal fan revolution. It gets the temperature
data from the sensors (U720 and U730) through 12C BUS and controls the
supply voltage to the fan (7 V to 11.5 V).
The IEEE1394 interface consists of the 1394b link-layer device (U110), cable
transcriver/arbiter (U120), oscillator (Y100), serial EEPROM (U140), regulators
(U130 and U230), and IEEE1394b connector (J140).
A30 Front Panel Board
The A30 Front Panel board consists of the front panel processor circuit, LVDS
receiver for FPD (flat panel display) link, video inverter circuit, rubber contact
switches, three connectors, and three LEDs.
The state of the front-panel keys are read by the one chip processor on the board
and any setting changes are reported to the SBC through COM2. The processor
also controls the LED on/off state.
The LVDS receiver converts the four LVDS data streams back into parallel 28
bits of CMOS/TTL data (24 bits of RGB and 4 bits of Hsync, Vsync, DE, and
CNTL).
The video inverter circuit consists of an FPGA and SRAM. The circuit converts
the display data upside down because the LCD display is attached to the chassis
upside down.
