CompactPCI backplane (for high-speed DMA for example) or front-panel TCP/IP. The standard Inova ICP-CM configuration is ready to run - straight from the box. Utilizing the low- power consumption and the high-performance of the Celeron processor enables truly embedded, ruggedized industrial applications to be engineered utilizing the latest software available today.
Built in to the ICP-CM chipset is an analog VGA interface with BIOS configurable video RAM allocation extracted from the system memory. Inova have also developed a number of ATI Radeon R7000-based dedicated AGP plug-in modules complete with video controller and RAM etc. for graphic intensive applications or to provide greater display flexibility.
Be aware that boards using the PXI bus will experience signal conflict if used with any (includes non Inova boards) CPU offering rear I/O - Therefore, in such cases always select a CPU board configuration without rear I/O. Also, for compatibility with older backplane revisions (2.11), rear I/O (C) should be selected if indeed rear I/O is required.
ICP-CM 1.4 Hardware 1.41 Block Diagram Figure 1.41 Block Diagram This block diagram is applicable to all Inova’s CM-based CPUs. Components and/or functionality may change without notice. 32-bit with or without Rear I/O (RIO) configurations are possible. User’s of NI peripheral cards should check to see whether signal conflict is possible with the RIO option selected.
IDE FLASH or an adapter that accesses other devices attached to this primary IDE channel, then an 8TE front-panel is selected. Both COM ports (jumper selectable to be RS232 or RS485) are installed on Inova’s ICP-HD-3 carrier board as are the interfaces for the LPT and slim-line FD.
This CPU board is a high-performance, low-power device and, as such, requires voltage, current and power timing as defined in table 1.49 for correct operation. The Inova >70W PSUs fulfil these requirements and reference should be made to this products’ data sheet and user’s manual.
CompactPCI systems permit the full 16-bit addressing capability of the Intel 80x86 ‘processors, from 0h to 0FFFFh. All Inova CPU boards include peripheral devices requiring I/O address space on board and hence the BIOS automatically assigns the I/O address required by peripheral boards and PCI devices at boot time based on the requirements of each device.
Intel 80x86 memory map from 0h to 0FFFFFFh. Inova’s CompactPCI systems allow the full 32-bit addressing capability of the Intel Pentium 4 range of ‘processors so that memory mapped peripheral devices may be mapped locally to the ‘processor board at any location in the memory map not being used by other devices (e.g.
2.6 Inova CM PCI Device List Table 2.60 shows the available PCI devices both on-board and off-board (CompactPCI backplane). It should be noted that the interrupt routing assumes a standard Inova backplane configuration with a right-hand system slot. Table 2.60 Legacy I/O Map (ISA Compatible)
The BIOS featured in Inova’s CPUs programs the system timer tick for PC compatibility. The inter- rupt generated by the timer creates an interrupt request on IRQ0 of the programmable interrupt controller (PIC) which is serviced by the CPU as interrupt vector 08h.
Figure 3.02 J1- 32-Bit CompactPCI Bus Interface Connector 3.03 ICP-PM Connector J1 and J2 Inova’s ICP-CM CPU board has been designed as a 32-bit (or 64-bit) system slot device able to operate in either +5V or +3.3V (I/O) systems. The CompactPCI backplane connector is keyed accordingly (yellow for +3.3V and blue for +5V.)

The System Slot is responsible for performing system initialization by managing each local board’s IDSEL signal. Physically, the System Slot may be located at either end of the backplane but Inova have placed theirs on the right to cater for physical expansion due to heat-sink, hard disk, extended function- ality etc.
Interfaces ICP-CM Figure 3.10 Inova’s 32-Bit CompactPCI 8-Slot Backplane - RH System Slot Note: The logical slots are different to the physical slots. The slot marked with the ‘ ‘ is the System Slot and always as- signed logical ‘1’. The neighbouring slot is logical ‘2’!
J9 is the standard CompactFlash interface and needs no further explanation. 3.28 Connecting the CM to the Inova ICP-HD3(-ND) Appendix A provides more information on the ICP-HD3(-ND) and its derivatives. For the sake of completeness however, the ICP-HD3(-ND) must only be attached / detached to / from the CM base board without power applied i.e.
A1.1 ICP-HD-3(-ND) Front-Panels (8HP or 12HP) The Inova ICP-HD-3(-ND) interface is a mass-storage carrier board that is only available as a CPU plug-in device with either an 8HP or 12HP front-panel as illustrated in figure A1.1.
Damage to the CPU, hard-disk carrier board or the LPT piggyback may result if the flex cable is positioned incorrectly. Inova will not accept responsibility for negligent actions! Position the blue side of the flex-cable to the blue-flanked connector shown Figure A1.2 Interface Location of the ICP-HD-3(-ND) Module...
Note: Any notebook-style IDE hard disk, Flash device or similar mass-storage unit can be connected here. However, Inova recommend only those devices from known manufacturers. Connecting devices to both J9 and J12 simultaneously is not recommended. A better configuration is to use Master and Slave devices connected to J12 only or use the Rear I/O feature.
IPB-FPE12 B1 IPB-FPE12 CPU Extension The Inova IPB-FPE12 adds LPT functionality to any Inova Pentium M, Celeron M or Pentium 4(M) CPU. The piggyback is available as a stand-alone device with its own 4HP front-panel or integrated within a 12HP front-panel. The information documented here is valid regardless of the connection choice.
- they are a complete, well thought-out concept. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the colourful rear I/O selection. With a choice of three full-length (80mm) plug-in modules conform- ing to the latest Inova rear I/O (D) specification and the rear I/O (C1) options, the major industrial requirements have been satisfied.

HD. Likewise, a hard-disk can be swapped without having to disassemble the CPU! Two slim-line (notebook) floppy interfaces are implemented allowing the module to be compatible with existing Inova PIII CPUs (with RIO(C)) as well as the P4, PM and CM family.
IPM-ATA D1 IPM-ATA CPU Extension Inova Plug-In Module (IPM-) offers the user the ability to exchange a hard-disk for example with- out having to remove the CPU from the CompactPCI enclosure and then dismantle it etc. Cur- rently, three units exist that provide industry with hard-disk, Compact FLASH, MicroDrive or ATA PCMCIA format mass storage capability.

Master / Slave combinations will fail to be recognised by the BIOS. To help highlight the problem, Inova have provided the test report shown in Table D1.5 which should be regarded as a guide when choosing to pick-and-mix de- vices.
AGP-R7000 E1 AGP-R7000 CPU Extension The AGP-R7000 is an Inova AGP 4x ATI Radeon-based graphic extension for use with the ICP-P4, ICP-P4(M), ICP-PM and ICP-CM CPUs. By utilizing the power of the ATI Radeon 7000 equipped with 32MByte of SDRAM, a graphic performance improvement of some 50% when compared to the on board (chipset) solution.
To address an almost unlimited number of cascaded digitally connected (GigaST R) TFT displays with optional CAN control and PanelLink Slave connectivity, the Inova GigaST R transmitter pig- gyback, IPB-GS-MULTILINK needs to be installed adjacent to the AGP piggyback. This connection is made through connectors J3 and J5 on the upper side of the piggyback as shown in figure E1.30.
