Storage: 5% to 95% Caution The above operating temperatures must be strictly adhered to at all times. When using a congatec heatspreader, the maximum operating temperature refers to any measurable spot on the heatspreader’s surface. Humidity specifications are for non-condensing conditions.
Cooling Solution congatec AG offers three cooling solutions for the conga-TS87: • Active cooling solution (CSA) • Passive cooling solution (CSP) • Heatspreader The dimensions of the cooling solutions are shown below and all measurements are in millimeter. The maximum torque specification for heatspreader screws is 0.3 Nm.

The gap pad material used on all heatspreaders contains silicon oil that can seep out over time depending on the environmental conditions it is subjected to. For more information about this subject, contact your local congatec sales representative and request the gap pad material manufacturer’s specification.
ULP feature is enabled by default and cannot be disabled. In newer driver version, this feature can be disabled. To have the correct LED status, congatec recommends that you use the latest i218 device driver provided on the website and additionally disable the ULP mode.
The conga-TS87 offers an LVDS interface with optional eDP overlay on the AB connector. The LVDS/eDP interface is by default configured to provide LVDS signals. The interface can optionally support eDP (assembly option). For more information, contact congatec technical center.

0.8V when the 12V is applied to the module. Actively driving PWR_OK high is compliant to the COM Express specification but this can cause back driving. Therefore, congatec recommends driving the PWR_OK low to keep the module in reset and tri-state PWR_OK when the carrier board hardware is ready to boot.
The conga-TS87 is equipped with a STMicroelectronics STM32 microcontroller. This onboard microcontroller plays an important role for most of the congatec embedded/industrial PC features. It fully isolates some of the embedded features such as system monitoring or the I²C bus from the x86 core architecture, which results in higher embedded feature performance and more reliability, even when the x86 processor is in a low power mode.
OEM POST Logo This feature allows system designers to replace the congatec POST logo displayed in the upper left corner of the screen during BIOS POST with their own BIOS POST logo. Use the congatec system utility CGUTIL 1.5.4 or later to replace/add the OEM POST logo.
The architecture of the CGOS API driver provides the ability to write application software that runs unmodified on all congatec CPU modules. All the hardware related code is contained within the congatec embedded BIOS on the module. See section 1.1 of the CGOS API software developers guide, which is available on the congatec website .
VT-x) added hardware support in the processor to improve the virtualization performance and robustness. Note congatec does not offer virtual machine monitor (VMM) software. All VMM software support questions and queries should be directed to the VMM software vendor and not congatec technical support.
Signal Descriptions and Pinout Tables The following section describes the signals found on COM Express™ Type VI connectors used for congatec AG modules. The pinout of the modules complies with COM Express Type 6 Rev. 2.1. Table 3 describes the terminology used in this section for the Signal Description tables. The PU/PD column indicates if a COM Express™...
On the conga-TS87, the PCI Express Bus acts as the subtractive decoding agent. All I/O cycles that are not positively decoded are forwarded to the PCI Bus not the LPC Bus. Only specified I/O ranges are forwarded to the LPC Bus. In the congatec Embedded BIOS, the following I/O address ranges are sent to the LPC Bus: 2Eh –...
The COM Express PCIe Port 6 is routed to the PCIe Root Port 7 of the PCH. 10.4 I²C Bus There are no onboard resources connected to the I²C bus. Address 16h is reserved for congatec Battery Management solutions. 10.5 SM Bus...

Auto detection is performed by reading an EDID data set via the video I²C bus. WVGA 800x480 1x24 (01Bh) The number in brackets specifies the congatec internal number of the respective panel data set. Note: Customized EDID™ utilizes an OEM defined EDID™ data set stored in the BIOS flash device.

Note In ACPI mode, it is not possible for a “Watchdog ACPI Event” handler to directly restart or shutdown the OS. For this reason the congatec BIOS will do one of the following: For Shutdown: An over temperature notification is executed. This causes the OS to shut down in an orderly fashion.

Select DIMM timing profile that should be used. XMP profiles cannot work on current modules Custom profile and MUSTnot be selected. XMP Profile 1 CAUTION: For congatec internal debugging only. DO NOT CHANGE. XMP Profile 2 ►Custom Profile Control Submenu Configure the custom DIMM profile options.
Note 1. The term ‘AC power loss’ stands for the state when the module looses the standby voltage on the 5V_SB pins. On congatec modules, the standby voltage is continuously monitored after the system is turned off. If within 30 seconds the standby voltage is no longer detected, then this is considered an AC power loss condition.
Use cgutlcmd.exe version 1.5.3 or later. Built in BIOS recovery is disabled in the congatec BIOS firmware to prevent the BIOS from updating itself due to the user pressing a special key combination or a corrupt BIOS being detected. congatec considers such a recovery update a security risk because the BIOS internal update process bypasses the implemented BIOS security explained above.
Only the congatec utility interface to the SMI handler of the BIOS flash update is enabled. Other interfaces to the SMI handler are disabled to prevent non congatec tools from writing to the BIOS flash. As a result of this restriction, flash utilities supplied by AMI or Intel will not work .
Additional BIOS Features The conga-TS87 uses a congatec/AMI AptioEFI that is stored in an onboard Flash Rom chip and can be updated using the congatec System Utility (version 1.5.0 and later), which is available in a DOS based command line, Win32 command line, Win32 GUI, and Linux version.
