Page 17: Thermal Considerations
User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Thermal Considerations In order to avoid malfunctioning of the CC8-BLUES, take care of appropriate cooling of the processor and system, e.g. by a cooling fan suitable to the maximum power consumption of the CPU chip actually in use. - Page 18 User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Celeron® Processors Maximum Power Consumption and Die Temperature Processor Speed Host Bus CPU ID maximum max.

- Page 20 User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU A special method to reduce power consumption is to force the processor into the 'Throttle Mode'. This is achieved by actuating the 'Stop Clock' input of the CPU, and can be activated through the BIOS settings. A Throttle Mode of 50% e.g. means a duty cycle of 50% on the stop clock input.
- Page 21 User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU The table below shows the effect of several throttle mode settings on the processor temperature in a given system equipped with the CC8-BLUES, now provided with a 566MHz Celeron processor. Again, the airflow around the CC8 cards slot is about 16m /h, which is typical for EKF systems, and as before, while the testing procedure, the CPU is stressed to its maximum by running kpower.exe.
- Page 22 User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU The measuring results in the table above are based on a forced vertical airflow of 16m /h around each card slot in a fully equipped 19-inch system rack, achieved by three Papst 4312M fans operated at 12V.

User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Main Memory The CC8-BLUES is equipped with a socket for installing a single 144-pin SO-DIMM module (module height limited to <=1.100 inch). Minimum memory size is 32MB; maximum memory size is 256MB. Due to the video requirements of the i810 chipset, minimum memory for the Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 operating system is 64MB (some of the system memory is dedicated to the graphics controller). -

User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Universal Serial Bus (USB) The CS5-BLUES is provided with a single USB port, routed to a front panel connector. You can connect a USB peripheral device directly to the CC8 without an external hub. To attach more devices, connect an external hub to the CC8 built-in port (often monitors or keyboards provide USB hub functionality). - Page 27 User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU LPC Super- I/O Interface In a modern system, legacy ports as PS/2 Keyboard/Mouse, COM1/2 and LPT have been replaced by USB and Ethernet connectivity.

Page 30: Non-Transparent Pci Bridge
User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Non-Transparent PCI Bridge Unlike the VMEbus, the CompactPCI bus was not designed for multiple processor boards which share a common backplane. Instead, (only) one system slot controller (CPU board) has been defined; all other card slots are reserved for peripheral I/O boards. In order to achieve multi- processing, additional CPU boards on the CPCI bus must hide themselves behind a so called non-transparent PCI bridge. - Page 31 User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU flat addressing model across PCI-to-PCI bridges. This means that a given physical address exists at only one location in the PCI bus hierarchy and that this location may be accessed by any device attached at any point in the PCI bus hierarchy. As a consequence, it is not possible for a PPB to isolate devices or address ranges from access by devices on the opposite interface of a PPB.

Page 32: Hot Swap Controller
User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Hot Swap Controller The CC8-BLUES is provided with a Hot Swap controlling mechanism according to the PICMG 2.1 R2.0 specification. Hot Swap defines a process for installing and removing boards without adversely effecting a running system. Since the CC8-BLUES was designed with cluster-computing in mind, it was important to allow hot-plugging of the board. -
