The XVME-6500A block diagram shown in Fig. 1.6.a illustrates the key components and
features that are summarized on the following pages.
This 2.4GHz quad-core i7, 64-bit, 22-nanometer (Haswell) CPU with integrated GT2
graphics contains direct interfaces for DDR3L, DDI, and PCIe x16. In addition, the
Direct Media Interface (DMI) is used to connect to the QM87 Platform Control Hub
(PCH).
•
DDR3L SDRAM – Two SODIMM sockets support up to 16GB of DDR3L ECC
at 1600MHz. Dual-channel mode is used with the two SODIMMs. The
SODIMMs are attached to the module firmly with screws and surrounded
by heat sink material to provide a robust mechanism both mechanically
and thermally.
•
PCIe x8 (2) – Traditionally used for external graphics, but on the XVME-
6500A supports any PMC/XMC devices. One of the connections is muxed
with a PEX8114 PCIe > PCI-X bridge for PMC vs. direct XMC connection. This
bridge drives both PMC sites when enabled, but the lower site may still
contain an XMC module even if the PMC bridge is enabled.
•
DVI-D – This digital display interface supports connection of both, DVI-D, or
HDMI display devices.
