USB3.0 support due to the limitation by fixed USB_ID in software). It does not support changing dynamically between host mode and device mode. A BIOS settings change in setup menu and restart is required. When designing the carrier board consider the speed of the USB 3.2 Gen2 (10 Gb/s). Kontron recommends using a retimer/redriver on the carrier.

3.7. Thermal Management 3.7.1. Heatspreader Plate Assembly A heatspreader plate assembly is available from Kontron for the COMe-mAS10 (E2). The heatspreader plate assembly is NOT a heat sink. The heatspreader plate transfers heat as quickly as possible from the processor using a copper core positioned directly above the processor and a Thermal Interface Material (TIM).
Page 35
Both active and passive thermal management approaches can be used with the heatspreader plate. The optimum cooling solution depends on the aaplication and environmental conditions. Kontron's active or passive cooling solutions are designed to cover the power and thermal dissipation for a commercial temperature range used in housing with a suitable airflow.
