64 GB ECC DDR4 memory. The system features 1x and 2x 2.5" SATA drive bays for storage. The AVA-3510 is equipped with two 10GbE and five 1GbE ports for automotive Ethernet applications and MXM NVIDIA® Quadro® Embedded RTX5000 for AI computing.
M.2 and Mini PCIe modules may require an additional thermal solution when operated above 60 °C. Please contact your local ADLINK representative for more information. 2.2 Power Specifications 2.2.1 Power Consumption The following table presents the AVA-3510 power consumption data at room temperature under the following test conditions. • Processor: Intel ®...
AVA-3510 Input Over-Voltage Protection When the input voltage exceeds 37.88V +5%, the module will shut down. Input Over-Temperature Protection Power will automatically shut down when the operating temperature of the power module sensor exceeds 125°C. Under Voltage Lockout (UVLO) The undervoltage lockout feature will shut down the power if the input voltage is below 5.2V -5%.

AVA-3510 Mount the system to the table. • Recommended operating temperature of dampers is from - 20°C to 60°C • Dampers must be kept away from fire and organic solvents. NOTE 4.7 2.5" SATA SSD Installation Loosen the captive screw securing the SATA drive tray and pull it out. Secure the SATA module to the tray with four M3 screws, then insert the module into the slot.
4.8 Connections 4.8.1 Connecting a Ground Cable Connect the ground cable before making any other connections. When disassembling the system, always detach the ground cable last. • Use a ground cable with a cross section of at least 16AWG and an M5 size ring terminal. Slide the ring terminal onto the ground stud and secure it with the locking M5 nut.
AVA-3510 4.10 Connecting the Power Supply • Work on the computer system may only be carried out by personnel qualified for the specific task and who have the training and experience to identify risks and avoid potential hazards. • Make sure that a ground cable has been connected to the system before connecting an external power supply and switching on the system.
<Del> or <Esc> to enter BIOS setup menu and change the Boot Option settings. If no operating system is found, the system will enter the BIOS setup menu automatically. The AVA-3510 is delivered without an operating system installed. When an MXM graphics module is installed, the default Primary Display BIOS setting (Auto) will send bootup display output to DP2-DP3 (MXM graphics).
