2.5.7
Parallel I/O Interface
The CP605 is provided with an IEEE1284, ECP/EPP-compatible parallel I/O interface.
The
parallel I/O interface is only available on the CompactPCI rear I/O
.
2.5.8
Floppy Drive Interface
The onboard floppy disk controller supports either 5.25 inch or 3.5 inch (1.44 or 2.88 MB) floppy
disks.
The floppy disk port is only available on the CompactPCI rear I/O interface
.
2.5.9
Gigabit Ethernet
The CP605 board includes two 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T Ethernet ports based on
the Intel 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet PCI Bus Controller. The Intel 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet
Controller architecture is optimized to deliver high performance with the lowest power con-
sumption. The controller's architecture includes independent transmit and receive queues to
limit PCI bus traffic, and a PCI interface that maximizes the use of bursts for efficient bus usage.
The Boot from LAN feature is supported. For details please refer to Chapter 5.
Figure 2-5: Gigabit Ethernet Connectors CON6B and CON6C
The Ethernet connectors are realized as RJ45 connectors. The interfaces provide automatic
detection and switching between 10Base-T, 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T data transmission.
Auto-wire switching for crossed cables is supported. The two Ethernet channels may be
configured via solder jumpers for the rear I/O PICMG 2.16 configuration or front I/O.
Note ...
If the Ethernet channel is configured for PICMG 2.16, the front panel Gigabit
connector will have no functionality.
