Introduction • 9
I/O extensions, including the serial port COM2, USB port #3, graphic
interface extension to DVI, and ATX power supply interface.
The PXD-3710/3710F can be used in ADLINK PXI chassis, including:
• PXIS-2556/2556T, 6-slot 3U instrument chassis
• PXIS-2650/2650T, 8-slot 3U instrument chassis
• PXIS-2680P, 8-slot 3U portable instrument chassis (New Model)
NOTE: the PXD-3710F (with FDD) occupies 4 slots and cannot be adopted in
PXIS-2556/2556T chassis.
Moreover, when used in a Hot Swap compliant backplane and in accordance
to the CompactPCI Hot Swap Specification, PICMG 2.1 R1.0, the
PXD-3710/3710F system controller supports hot swappable peripherals in a
powered system.
1.3.2 CPU Support
The PXD-3710/3710F CPU module supports an Intel Socket 370 FC-PGA
Pentium III, Celeron, or VIA C3 CPU with an auto-selected front side bus
(FSB) at 100 or 133MHz. The standard package of the PXD-3710/3710F
uses the Pentium III 1.26GHz CPU and can be upgraded to 1.4GHz. ADLINK
factory can pre-mount the CPU for OEM projects. Please contact an ADLINK
sales representative for available CPU configurations.
Because the heat dissipation of CPU varieties and the cooling capability of
each chassis design is different; users need to evaluate PXD-3710/3710F
from the system design point of view. It is possible to run the
PXD-3710/3710F without a CPU fan, with limited types of CPUs, a
special-designed heat sink, and a certified chassis cooling system.
1.3.3 Memory Supporting
The PXD-3710/3710F supports two 144-pin SO-DIMM sockets and up to a
maximum total memory size of 512MB. The memory type must be 3.3V
SDRAM and comes in sizes of 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, or 512MB. The
standard PXD-3710/3710F package uses 128MB SDRAM. ADLINK factory
can pre-mount memory for OEM projects. Please contact an ADLINK sales
representative for available memory configurations.
1.3.4 Ethernet Interfaces
The PXD-3710/3710F provides one 10/100Base-Tx Ethernet channel
through the Intel 82562EM Fast Ethernet Controller. The 82562EM consists
of both the Media Access Controller (MAC) and the physical layer (PHY)
interface in a single component. A RJ-45 connector is available on the
faceplate.
