Power Supply Solution

The development kit can be powered from an ATX power supply (desktop solution) that
contains all of the voltage regulators necessary to power the system up. Additionally,
battery or AC adapter support is provided through +12VDC input.
The characteristic of using AC adapter or battery pack is slightly different from using an
ATX power supply:
• Due to the low current rating of the AC adapter, the carrier board does not support
a full load of extension slots (SDVO, 2 PCIe* and PCI slots). When using these
extension slots, please use an ATX power supply.
• In the case of using the AC adapter, it is recommended that the carrier board be
connected to the LVDS LCD module and an external 2.5" hard disk only. When
using AC adapter, please supply power to the hard disk using the power supply
connector (X48) on the carrier board. If using the X48 connector, the customer
must prepare a hard disk power cable that converts to the adaptive connector.
• Using the AC adapter is allowed as long as the total of the system current
consumption is not beyond the rating output of the used AC adapter. Please use
available AC adapter that has the rating output of 6.5A or less.
Note:
Use an UL94V-1 minimum compliant AC adapter that provides 80 Watts of continuous
output power. For example, the Sinpro Electronics Model No. SPU80-105* meets this
requirement.
Use an ATX12V 1.1 specification compliant power supply regardless of maker or
wattage level (an ATX12V rating means V5 min current =0.1 A vs. an ATX V5 min
current = 1.0 A, among other differences). For example, the Sparkle* Model No.
FSP300-60BTV meets this requirement and is an ATX12V 1.1 specification compliant
power supply.
If the power switch on the ATX power supply is used to shut down the system, wait at
least 5 seconds before turning the system on again.
The recommended way to shut down the board is through software or by pressing and
holding the power button switch (SW5) for 5 seconds until the power supply turns off.
Using the power supply switch or pulling the plug out of the wall is not recommended.

Board Size

The form factor of the carrier board follows Micro ATX 9.6 x 8 inch (243.84mm x
203.2mm) specification. The back panel jacks may not conform to ATX specifications.
