XMC P16 Rear-I/O is implemented through two Samtec Firefly UCC8 and UEC5 connectors providing access to the P16 I/O lines. The TPCE280 provides a fan mounted under the XMC slot that helps cooling the system. This fan does not occupy a second PCIe slot as most other carrier solutions do.
If FIT rates are not available, MIL-HDBK-217F and MIL-HDBK-217F Notice 2 formulas are used for FIT rate calculation. Humidity 5 – 95 % non-condensing Weight TPCE280: 98 g Table 2-1 : Technical Specification TPCE280 User Manual Issue 1.0.3 Page 7 of 20...
3 Handling and Operating Instructions ESD Protection The TPCE280 is sensitive to static electricity. Packing, unpacking and all other handling of the TPCE280 has to be done in an ESD/EOS protected Area. Installation of TPCE280-2xR For the TPCE280-2xR variants, it is imperative to always connect a PCI Express VGA power connector to the TPCE280, even if no XMC is mounted.
-12V (optional XMC voltage, available via order option) As the ±12V supplies are optional and VPWR can be 12V or 5V, it depends on the TPCE280 order option which supplies are available and what voltage level is provided as VPWR.
If the XMC has a front panel, first remove the cover from the XMC front panel cut-out of the TPCE280. Install the XMC at an angle so that the XMC front panel pushes through the XMC front panel cut-out. Then rotate down to mate with the XMC connectors on the TPCE280.
5 JTAG There is one JTAG chain present on the TPCE280. This chain connects the 14-pin JTAG header with the XMC slot. There are no JTAG-capable devices onboard the TPCE280, so the XMC is the only “device” in this chain.
6 Indicators LED Indicators The TPCE280 provides a couple of board-status LEDs as shown below. All LEDs are labeled on board for better recognition. Figure 6-1 : On-board LED Placement Color State Description 3.3V Power Supply is not OK +3.3V 3.3V Power Good...
4) WAKE# is connected to the PCIe edge card connector, so it is up to the mainboard to provide for this signal. If a different configuration is needed, please contact TEWS. 5) ROOT# is not supported; this pin is not connected on the TPCE280 by default. If a different configuration is needed, please contact TEWS.
GND *) +12V Table 7-8 : X3 – 6-pin Auxilliary Power Connector *) The TPCE280 connects this pin to GND and does not do any power supply detection with this pin. TPCE280 User Manual Issue 1.0.3 Page 20 of 20...
