To keep user’s current with the latest version of the Advantech SOM 144 specifications and designs, this page lists the most recently printed revision of the SOM 144 specifica- tion and design guide. This revision history corresponds with the revision on the SOM 144 specifications and designs.
General Information This chapter explains the concept of the SOM 144 (System-on-Module) module. It also gives the reasons why SOM 144 can give the most value and benefits to embedded system applications.

Based on this specification, it is easier to develop a customer’s solution board with an off the shelf SOM 144 module and reduce the time to market of your product. With the SODIMM socket and within 5 sec, a SOM 144 module is easy to install into or unload from customer’s solution board.
Connector Assignments and Descriptions This chapter provides the pinout tables for the SOM 144 PCI interface, including the 144-pin SODIMM and recommended 80-pin frontend connector. Chapter 2 Pinout of SOM 144/PCI Interfaces...
Bus Request signals of 3 external PCI Masters. When asserted, it means the PCI Master is request- ing the PCI bus ownership from the arbiter. Please refer the specification for your SOM 144 Module for used/ unused PCI Masters and shared PCI Masters with onboard devices.
PCI interrupts from CPU-PCI bridge. For further descriptions of PCI signals please refer to Chapter 4. 3.1.2 All required pullups are integrated on the SOM 144 Module. ESD and EMV protection devices need to be integrated on the backplane. PIDE_D0..15 Primary/ Secondary IDE ATA Data Bus.

This active low input is for the serial port. Hand- shake signal which notifies the UART that the tele- phone ring signal is detected by the modem. 3.1.4 All pullups are integrated on the SOM 144 Module. For ESD and Chapter 3 Signal Description...
PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse All signals are not fused and without ESD and EMV protection cir- cuitry. Protection devices will need to be incorporated onto the SOM 144 backplane. MSDAT This is the bi-directional Mouse data signal. SOM 144 Design Specification Rev.1.0...
RESERVED Reserved pin. 3.2.1 All pullups are integrated on the SOM 144 Module. For ESD and EMV protection please integrate the parts on you backplane. Horizontal Sync: This output supplies the horizon- tal synchronization pulse to the monitor. It is nor- mally not needed for flat panels.
All required pullups are integrated on the SOM 144 Module. ESD and EMV protection devices need to the please integrated on the back- plane. The SOM 144 Ethernet Interface is designed for use with a 1:1/ 1:1 external transformer. Please refer to the electrical specification for further details.
All LED signals pulls a external LED with max. 5mA to GND. 3.2.3 IrDA IrDA fuction of the SOM 144 Modules supports not only legacy IR IrDA 1.0 SIR, but also higher transmision protocals IrDA 1.1 MIR(1.152Mbps), and IrDA 1.1 FIR(4Mbps) and consumer IR.

PD5..7 LPT Mode:This bi-directional parallel data bus bit 5..7 are used to transfer information between the SOM 144 Module and peripherals. FDD Mode: Not used. SOM 144 Design Specification Rev.1.0...
SLIN# LPT Mode:This active low signal for the SOM 144 Module to select the printer. FDD Mode:STEP#. Step Output Pulses. This ac- tive low output produces a pulse to move the head to another track. ACK# LPT Mode:This active low output from the printer indicates it has received the data and is ready to receive new data.

4.1.3 Recommand Component Suppliers At least 3.0 mm height is needed between the carrier board's surface and the bottom of SOM 144 Modules.Therefore, SODIMM socket must meet this requirement and so as the recom- mended board -to-board connector. Some suggested suppliers are listed below.
4.1.5 SOM 144 Module Installation 1. Plug the SOM 144 module into the solution board's SODIMM socket 2. Connet the front-end connector to the solution board 3. Screw the SOM 144 Module and the solution board together Figure 4-4: SOM 144 Module Installation...
1. Unscrew two screws 2. Bend out the positioning holders of the SODIMM socket and release the SOM 144 Module 3. Unplug the SOM 144 Module from the socket Figure 4-5: SOM 144 Module Removal SOM 144 Design Specification Rev. 1.0...

Current rating per pin: 0.3A at SODIMM , 0.4A at the recom- mended front-end connector. The SOM 144 Module's power pins can not be used to supply power to I/O Boards. The I/O slots' power must be supplied by the solution board of the SOM 144 Module.
SOM 144 Module supplier. SOM 144 Modules don't support a standard floppy interface. It's recommended for the SOM 144 Module designer to support a extension FDD port support on printer port signals. Please ask your SOM 144 Module supplier for this.
