    3. Consider the self-discharge of the battery when calculating the lifetime of the CMOS battery. For more information, refer to application note AN9_RTC_Battery_Lifetime.pdf on congatec GmbH website at www.congatec.com/support/application-notes. 4. We recommend to always have a CMOS battery present when operating the conga-TCV2.

    The SM bus is implemented through the congatec board controller and accessed through the congatec CGOS driver and API. 5.1.11 The SPI bus interface supports single and dual SPI interfaces with speeds up to 16 MHz. The conga-TCV2 discrete SPI TPM and the congatec BIOS flash are connected on the SPI interface.

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.

  • Page 33: Additional Features

    Board Controller (cBC) The conga-TCV2 is equipped with Microchip 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.
  • Page 34: I 2 C Bus

    OEM BIOS Customization The conga-TCV2 is equipped with congatec Embedded BIOS, which is based on American Megatrends Inc. Aptio UEFI firmware. The congatec Embedded BIOS allows system designers to modify the BIOS. For more information about customizing the congatec Embedded BIOS, refer to the congatec System Utility user’s guide CGUTLm1x.pdf on the congatec website at www.congatec.com or contact technical support.

    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, available on the congatec website.
