KTD-N0793-0 Page 22 Connector Definitions Connector Definitions The following sections provide pin definitions and detailed description of all on-board connectors. The connector definitions follow the following notation: Column Description name Shows the pin-numbers in the connector. The graphical layout of the connector definition tables is made similar to the physical connectors.
KTD-N0793-0 Page 25 Connector Definitions Power Connector (ATX/BTXPWR) The KTGM45 boards are designed to be supplied from a standard ATX (or BTX) power supply or by single +12V. Use of BTX supply is not required for operation, but may be required to drive high-power PCIe cards. In case the total power load from PCI and PCIe slots are limited (no more than TBD), then the ATX/BTXPWR connector can be unconnected, so that the ATX+12V is the only voltage (12V +/-5%) supplied.
KTD-N0793-0 Page 26 Connector Definitions Keyboard and Mouse connectors Attachment of a keyboard or PS/2 mouse adapter can be done through the stacked PS/2 mouse and keyboard connector (MSE & KBD). Both interfaces utilize open-drain signalling with on-board pull-up. The PS/2 mouse and keyboard is supplied from SB5V when in standby mode in order to enable keyboard or mouse activity to bring the system out from power saving states.
KTD-N0793-0 Page 27 Connector Definitions Display connector The KTGM45 family provides onboard Analogue CRT interface, onboard LVDS panel interface and onboard TV-Out. Additionally there is support for ADD2 card (or similar) through the onboard PCI Express x16 connector, with extension capability for support of dual DVI, dual LVDS, VGA and HDMI + DVI. If a PCI Express x16 Graphics add-in card is used, the onboard Graphics controller (GMA 4500) is disabled.

The KTGM45/Flex supports one 16-lane (x16) PCI Express port and one 4-lane PCI Express (x16) port. The KTGM45/mITX supports one 16-lane (x16) PCI Express port and one miniPCI Express port. The 16-lane (x16) PCI Express 1.1 port can be used for external PCI Express graphics card. It is located nearest the CPU.
CD-ROM drives may be attached to the primary controller by means of the 40 pin IDC connector, PATA. On the KTGM45/mITX the parallel ATA hard disk controller is shared between the PATA connector and the CF connector. If the CF connector is not used then two devices (a primary and a secondary device) are supported on the PATA interface.

KTD-N0793-0 Page 38 Connector Definitions Serial ATA Hard Disk interface The KTGM45 boards have an integrated SATA Host controller that supports independent DMA operation on four ports and data transfer rates of up to 3.0Gb/s (300MB/s). The SATA controller supports AHCI mode and has integrated RAID functionality with support for RAID modes 0 and 1.
KTD-N0793-0 Page 39 Connector Definitions Serial Ports Four RS232 serial ports are available on the KTGM45. The typical definition of the signals in the COM ports is as follows: Signal Description Transmitted Data, sends data to the communications link. The signal is set to the marking state (-12V) on hardware reset when the transmitter is empty or when loop mode operation is initiated.
KTD-N0793-0 Page 40 Connector Definitions 3.10 Ethernet Connectors The KTGM45 boards supports three channels of 10/100/1000Mb Ethernet, one (ETHER1) is based on Intel® Boazman-LM WG82567LM Gigabit PHY with AMT 4.0 support and the two other controllers (ETHER2 & ETHER3) are based on Intel® Hartwell 82574L PCI Express controller. In order to achieve the specified performance of the Ethernet port, Category 5 twisted pair cables must be used with 10/100MB and Category 5E, 6 or 6E with 1Gb LAN networks.
