For the connection of external Mass Storage Devices, there is a standard male S-ATA connector, CN34.
®
Since SMARC modules can manage only one S-ATA interface, then only one of the two connectors
(the SATA 7p M connector CN34 and the SATA M.2 SSD slot CN35) can work at a time.
Switching between the two connectors is automatic, and it is managed by the signal
SATA_M2_SELECT# available on SATA M.2 Slot CN35 (pin 69).
When M.2 SSD is not plugged, the SATA interface is redirected by default to the 7p M connector CN34.
Vice versa, when M.2 SSD is plugged, the SATA interface is redirected by default to SATA M.2 SSD slot CN35.
When both an M.2 SSD and a SATA Drive are plugged, the SATA interface is switched toward the M.2 slot.
A dedicated power connector, CN37, can be used to give supply to external Hard Disks (or Solid State
Disks) connected to the SATA male connector CN34.
The dedicated power connector is a 4-pin male connector, type MOLEX p/n 89400-0420 or equivalent,
with pinout shown in the table on the left.
Mating connector: MOLEX 87369-0400 crimp housing with MOLEX 51021 crimp terminals.
