Page 8: Introduction
Introduction Introduction This manual describes the pITX-E38 boards made by KONTRON Technology A/S. In this manual the boards will also be denoted E38. The E38 boards are based on Intel Atom E38xx SoC (System on Chip) “Intel Bay Trail” and will be available in three versions. -
Page 9: Installation Procedure
Installation Procedure Installing the Board To get the board running follow these steps. If the board shipped from KONTRON has already components like RAM and CPU cooler mounted, then relevant steps below can be skipped. 1. Turn off the PSU (Power Supply Unit) Warning: Turn off PSU (Power Supply Unit) completely (no mains power connected to the PSU) or leave the Power Connectors unconnected while configuring the board. -
