Two USB 3.0 interfaces are routed to front panel connectors and one is connected to P-HSE1 interface.
  • Page 39: 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 PC7-FESTIVAL, featuring all classic Super-I/O functionality, for example the SCS-TRUMPET or PCS-BALLET.
  • Page 40: 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 PC7-FESTIVAL 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 41: Spi Flash

    If the programming procedure fails e.g. caused by a power interruption, the PC7-FESTIVAL 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 42: Reset

    The healthy state of the PC7-FESTIVAL 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.

    Various PCI control signals pulled up with 1kOhm to V(I/O). This value is specified for +5V V(I/O) but works as well with +3.3V V(I/O) under all environments which have been tested by EKF. On request, 2.7kOhm P/U resistors can be stuffed.

    (PCIe Gen1 2.5GT/s, SATA 1.5Gbps). This does not affect peripherals attached via the P-HSE mezzanine connector. The CompactPCI® PlusIO specification refers to SATA data rates of 1.5Gbps and 3Gbps. EKF has tested successfully also 6Gbps over the backplane with sample devices, but cannot guarantee this data rate under any conditions.
  • Page 105 REQ1# GNT1# REQ2# signals marked grey/italic are not connected The PC7-FESTIVAL does not provide backplane Ethernet by on-board controllers. As an option, the CPU card can be combined as an assembly with the P82-GBE low profile mezzanine module, which is populated with two I226-IT Ethernet controllers for 2.5GbE (4-speed, 10/100/1G/2.5G).
  • Page 106 RST# would be available on pin J1 C5. Without J1 however, the RST# output must be derived from J2 C17 as an alternate. Hence, if J1 is not populated on the PC7-FESTIVAL, backplane slots which are based on PCI Express® (typically configured according to CompactPCI® Serial) must be connected to J2/P2 C17 as platform reset.
