Functional Description The following sections describe the cPCI-6525 features and functions. 3.1 Processors The 3rd Generation Intel® Core™ i7 Processor is the next genera- tion of 64-bit, multi-core mobile processors built on 22-nanometer process technology. Based on a new micro-architecture, the pro- cessor is designed for a two-chip platform.
3.2 Chipset The cPCI-6525 incorporates the Intel® QM77 Platform Controller Hub (PCH). Intel® QM77 Platform Controller Hub PCI Express Base Specification, Revision 2.0 support for up to eight ports with transfer rate up to 5 GT/s Supports dual display ACPI Power Management Logic Support, Revision 4.0a...
3.3 Intel® Turbo Boost Technology Intel Turbo Boost Technology is a feature that allows the processor to opportunistically and automatically run faster than its rated operating core and/or render clock frequency when there is suffi- cient power headroom, and the product is within specified temper- ature and current limits.
IC. If the data is not matched, the IC may be blocked. 3.7 Battery The cPCI-6525 is provided with a 3.0V “coin cell” lithium battery for the Real Time Clock (RTC). The lithium battery must be replaced with an identical battery or a battery type recommended by the manufacturer.
