// 17
Display Port
One Digital Display Interface (DDI) channel 0 display port interface. The Intel SoC DDI port 0
is used to create the QSEVEN eDP1 interface that are sharing the same pins with the LVDS-B
interface.
LVDS
The Intel SoC eDP is used to create the QSEVEN dual channel LVDS interface. The interface
should be able to support 18 bit and 24 bit single and dual channel LVDS panels.
Internal I/O: QSEVEN I/O System Interconnection
SATA
Two Gen3 SATA link
GbE LAN
One QSEVEN GBE port using Intel I210/I211 PCIe – GBE MAC/PHY controller
LVDS
One LVDS and one LVDS/eDP1.4/DDI0
PCIe
4 PCIe Gen 2 lanes that can be configured as 4 x1 (i.e. 4 PCIe links that are x1 wide) or as 1x4
(one link in an x4 configuration). The PCIe links and support signals are implemented as per
the QSEVEN specification document.
Inter-IC Sound (I2S)
One I2S interface muxing with one HDA interface
Serial Port
One 4-wire UART interface (TX, RX, CTS, RTS) at 3.3V TTL
derived from the MAX10 FPGA
Serial Peripheral
Interface (SPI)
One fast SPI interface which is connected to the primary SPI chip and can also be used for
external boot from the QSEVEN Carrier BIOS SPI chip. Another SPI interface shall be
provided as a secondary SPI interface for generic SPI devices on the carrier.
I2C
Four I2C interfaces which are derived from the SoC
GPIO
8x general purpose inputs/outputs
Internal Header and Jumper
MIPI Connector
(option)
1x MIPI-CSI2 via onboard connector according to QSEVEN Specifications Rev 2.1
(36pin FCI connector)
Power
One 10-pin power connector: The Qseven-Q7ALi is supplied from a DUAL power supply
supporting a Voltage supply of 5 V according to QSEVEN specification.
The QSEVEN specification defines a maximum current per input voltage pin of 0.5A. Power
is brought to the module through 12 pins. This leads to a maximum module-power of 12W
when supplied with the minimum input voltage level.
Display
Graphics Interface
The board supports onboard graphics through four Ports:
LVDS: The Intel SoC eDP delivers the QSEVEN dual channel LVDS interface. The interface
supports 18 bit and 24 bit single and dual channel LVDS panels via PTN3460.
eDP: The Intel SoC eDP connects the display via the QSEVEN eDP0 interface, that shares
the same pins with the LVDS-A interface.
DDI0: The Intel SoC DDI0 connects the display via the QSEVEN eDP1 interface, that shares
the same pins with the LVDS-B interface.
Dual mode HDMI: Dual Mode (HDMI and DisplayPort on the same pins) implementations
are realized through the Intel SoC DDI1 interface.
DP++: The Intel SoC DDI1 shall be used to create the QSEVEN DP++ interface
Graphics Controller
Intel HD Gfx Gen9
