  • Page 22: Microprocessor

    The processors supported by the SC4-CONCERTO are SKUs with a thermal design power (TDP) of 25- 45W. Due to the cTDP feature (configurable TDP) the power consumption of the 45W parts may be lowered by UEFI setup to fit the customers requirements (see table below).

  • Page 23: Thermal Considerations

    Serial CPU Board Thermal Considerations In order to avoid malfunctioning of the SC4-CONCERTO, take care of appropriate cooling of the processor and system, e.g. by a cooling fan suitable to the maximum power consumption of the CPU chip actually in use. The processor contains digital thermal sensors (DTS) that are readable via special CPU registers or via PECI bus.

  • Page 24: Main Memory

    Serial CPU Board Main Memory The SC4-CONCERTO features two channels of DDR4 SDRAMs with support of ECC (Error Correction Code). One channel is realized with 18 memory devices soldered to the board (Memory Down) and delivers a capacity of up to 16GB with a clock frequency of 2133MHz (PC4-2133).

  • Page 25: Graphics Subsystem

    The graphics subsystems main interfaces like DisplayPort and DVI are part of the processor. Only a few sideband signals (DDC channel, hot plug detection) are located within the PCH CM238. The SC4-CONCERTO offers two DisplayPort interfaces with latching receptacle in the front panel. The latching feature prevents DisplayPort cables from detaching in vibrating or harsh environments.

  • Page 26: Lan Subsystem

    ® User Guide • SC4-CONCERTO • CompactPCI Serial CPU Board LAN Subsystem The Ethernet LAN subsystem is composed of two Gigabit Ethernet ports: One Intel i219LM Physical Layer Transceiver (PHY) using the PCH CM238 internal MAC and one Intel i210IT Gigabit Ethernet Controller.

  • Page 27: Serial Ata Interface (Sata)

    Serial CPU Board Serial ATA Interface (SATA) The SC4-CONCERTO provides a total of up to ten serial ATA (SATA) ports, derived from up to three independent SATA controllers. All of these ports support data transfer rates of 6Gbps (600MB/s), 3Gbps (300MB/s) or 1.5Gbps (150MB/s). SATA controllers are located within the CM238 Platform...

  • Page 28: Pci Express ® Interface

    ® PCI Express Interface The SC4-CONCERTO is provided with several PCI Express (PCIe) lanes for I/O expansion. Sixteen PCI ® Express lanes, originating from the processor, are building the two fat pipes defined by CompactPCI Serial. These two links consists of eight lanes with transfer rates of up to 8Gbps (PCI Express Gen 3).

  • Page 30: Utility Interfaces

    The HD Audio port requires an additional audio codec, as provided e.g. on the SCS-TRUMPET side card. The LPC bus presents an easy way to add legacy interfaces to the system. EKF offers a variety of mezzanine expansion boards (side cards), to be attached on top of the SC4-CONCERTO, featuring all classic Super-I/O functionality, for example the SCS-TRUMPET or PCS-BALLET.

  • Page 31: Real-Time Clock

    In applications were the use of a battery is not permitted, a SuperCap can be soldered instead of the battery. It is also possible to use the SC4-CONCERTO without any battery or SuperCap. In this case the Real- Time Clock can’t keep its time and date. Per default an error message is reported by the UEFI/BIOS...

  • Page 32: Spi Flash

    If the programming procedure fails e.g. caused by a power interruption, the SC4-CONCERTO may no more be operable. In this case you would possibly have to send in the board, because the Flash device is directly soldered to the PCB and cannot be changed by the user.

  • Page 33: Reset

    The healthy state of the SC4-CONCERTO is indicated by the LED PG (Power Good) located in the front panel. This bicoloured LED signals different states of the board (see section below). As soon as this LED begins to lite green, all power voltages are within their specifications and the reset signal has been deasserted.

    Serial CPU Board HD (Hard Disk Activity) LED The SC4-CONCERTO offers a bicoloured LED marked as HD placed within the front panel. This LED, when blinking green, signals activity on any device attached to the SATA ports of the CM238.

  • Page 39: Main Power Supply Control (Ps_On#)

    PS_ON# (connector P1 pin E2). If the system enters the sleep state S5 (soft off), the signal PS_ON# is pulled high, hence the main power supply is switched-off. The SC4-CONCERTO is held in soft off state until a power management event (e.g. power button event triggered by the front panel handle) brings back the system to the S0 state.
