Advantech iManager Advantech’s platforms come equipped with iManager, a micro controller that provides embedded features for system integrators. Embedded features have been moved from the OS/BIOS level to the board level to increase reliability and simplify integra- tion. iManager runs whether the operating system is running or not; it can count the boot times and running hours of the device, monitor device health, and provide an advanced watchdog to handle errors.
SOM-6883 Type 6 Pin Assignment This section surveys SOM-6883’s pin assignment on COM Express connector. It is compliant with COMR.0 R3.0 Type 6 pin-out definitions. Contact Advantech to acquire further pin usage details or a design reference. Likewise, please contact Advantech for a design guide, checklist, reference schematic, and other hardware/ software support.
