2.2.2.8 Keyboard and PS/2 Mouse Connector (CN10)
The board provides a keyboard connector that supports both a keyboard and a PS/2
style mouse. In most cases, especially in embedded applications, a keyboard is not
used. If the keyboard is not present, the standard PC/AT BIOS will report an error or
fail during power-on self-test (POST) after a reset. The product's BIOS standard
setup menu allows you to select "All, But Keyboard" under the "Halt On" selection.
This allows no-keyboard operation in embedded system applications, without the
system halting under POST.
2.2.2.9 SMBus Connector (CN11)
The System Management Bus (abbreviated to SMBus or SMB) is a simple two-wire
bus, derived from I2C and used for communication with low-bandwidth devices on a
motherboard, especially power related chips such as a laptop's rechargeable battery
subsystem (see Smart Battery Data). Other devices might include temperature, fan
or voltage sensors, lid switches and clock chips. PCI add-in cards may connect to a
SMBus segment.
The SMBus was defined by Intel in 1995. It carries clock, data, and instructions and
is based on Philips' I2C serial bus protocol. Its clock frequency range is 10 kHz to
100kHz. Its voltage levels and timings are more strictly defined than those of I2C, but
devices belonging to the two systems are often successfully mixed on the same bus.
2.2.2.10 Inverter Power Connector (CN13)
PCM-9362 can provide +5 V and +12 V and signal to LCD inverter board via CN13.
2.2.2.11 USB Connectors (CN14, CN15, CN24, CN25)
The board provides up to six USB (Universal Serial Bus) ports. This gives complete
Plug and Play, and hot attach/detach for up to 127 external devices. The USB inter-
faces comply with USB specification Rev. 2.0 which supports 480 Mbps transfer rate,
and are fuse protected.
There are 5 x 2 pin 180D (M) connectors for internal use, 4 x USB ports at CN14,
CN15 and two external USB port at CN24,CN25. You will need an adapter cable if
you use a standard USB connector. On one end the adapter cable has a 5 x 2-pin
connector with a foolproof connection to prevent it from being plugged in the wrong
way and on the other end a USB connector.
2.2.2.12 VGA/LCD/LVDS Interface Connections
The board's PCI VGA interface can drive conventional CRT displays and is capable
of driving a wide range of flat panel displays, including passive LCD and active LCD
displays. The board has connectors to support these displays: one for standard CRT
VGA monitors and one for flat panel displays
CRT display connector (CN27)
The CRT display connector is a box header connector used for conventional CRT
displays.
LVDS LCD panel connector (CN16)
The board supports 18bit LVDS LCD panel displays. Users can connect to a 18bit
LVDS LCD on it.
2.2.2.13 Ethernet Configuration (CN18, CN19)
10/100/1000 Mbps connections are made via RJ-45 connectors.
The board is equipped with 2 high performance PCI Ethernet interface which is fully
compliant with IEEE 802.3u 100Base-T & IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T. It is supported
by all major network operating systems.
