Notes on J3 Signals
COM1 – COM4
The signals on these pins are RS-232 level signals and may be
connected directly to RS-232 devices. The pin out of these signals is
designed to allow a 9-pin male IDC connector to be crimped onto the
corresponding ribbon cable wires to provide the correct pin out for a PC
serial port connector (DTE).
LPT1
The signals on these pins comprise a standard PC parallel port. The pin
out of these signals is designed to allow a 25-pin female IDC connector
to be crimped onto the corresponding ribbon cable wires to provide the
correct pin out for a PC parallel port connector.
Keyboard, Mouse
These are PS/2 signals for keyboard and mouse.
Clk
Clock pin; connects to pin 5 of the PS/2 connector.
V-
Power pin; connects to pin 3 of the PS/2 connector.
Data
Data pin; connects to pin 1 of the PS/2 connector.
V+
Power pin; connects to pin 4 of the PS/2 connector.
Pins 2 and 6 on the Mini-Din-6 PS/2 connectors are unused.
Utilities A
+5V Out
This pin is a switched power pin that is turned on and off with the ATX
power switch or with the +5V input.
Speaker Out
The signal on this pin is referenced to +5V Out. Connect a speaker
between this pin and +5V Out. (Speaker support not mentioned in pc
speaker
IDE Drive LED
Referenced to +5V Out. Does not require a series resistor. Connect
LED directly between this pin and +5V Out.
Power LED
Referenced to +5V Out. Does not require a series resistor. Connect
LED directly between this pin and +5V Out.
Utilities B
Reset-
Connection between this pin and Ground will generate a Reset
condition.
ATX Power
When ATX is enabled a momentary contact between this pin and
Ground causes the CPU to turn on and a contact of 4 seconds or longer
will generate a power shutdown. ATX power control is enabled with a
jumper on jumper block J10 (see page 20).
KB Lock
When this pin is connected to Ground, the keyboard and mouse inputs
are ignored.
IR RX, IR TX
Infra Red pins. Can be connected directly to an Infra Red transceiver.
+5V In
Connected to +5V input power on J11 (see page 14). This pin is not
switched by ATX control. This pin is provided for auxiliary use such as
front panel lighting or other circuitry at the user’s discretion.
