1.2.17 I/O Connectivity
Front panel I/O is provided by two RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports, one RJ-45 COM
port, two USB 2.0 ports, one VGA connector, and one PMC cutout. On the dual-PMC
version only one RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet Port and one RJ-45 COM port are available
on the front panel due to the space taken by the second PMC cutout.
Onboard I/O consists of one IDE channel to a Compact Flash socket and additionally
on the single-PMC version of the MIC-3392, one SATA channel can be connected to
a 2.5" SATA HDD. Rear I/O connectivity is available via the following CompactPCI
connectors:
! J3: First SATA port, one IDE slave port, one floppy port, one printer port, and
two Gigabit Ethernet links to the backplane
for PICMG 2.16.
! J5: Second SATA port, 10/100 LAN port, two USB ports (same ports as on the
front panel), one keyboard & mouse connector, two COM ports, a VGA port and
two Gigabit Ethernet LAN port
for Rear I/O board.
The MIC-3392 provides two Gigabit Ethernet ports that can be routed to the front
panel, the rear transition module or the PICMG 2.16 packet switched backplane.
1.2.18 PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) IEEE1386.1 Compliant
Additional I/O or co-processing functionality is supported by add-on PMC modules.
The MIC-3392 supports up to two PMC sites that are fully compliant with the
IEEE1386.1 PCI Mezzanine Card specification. PMC1 and PMC2 support a 64-bit /
66 MHz PCI bus interfac3 and 3.3 V VIO.
The two-layer front panel design complies with IEEE 1101.10. Connectors are firmly
screwed to the front panel, and a shielding gasket is attached to the panel edge. This
reduces emissions and increases protection from external interference.
1.2.19 Hardware Monitor
The MIC-3392 Super I/O (W83627DHG) is available to monitor critical hardware
parameters. It is connected to the Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) to mon-
itor CPU temperature core voltage information.
1.2.20 Super IO
The MIC-3392 Super I/O device provides the following legacy PC devices:
! The serial port COM1 is connected to the rear I/O module or front panel
! The serial port COM2 is connected to the rear I/O module or BMC
! The parallel port is routed to the rear I/O module
! The FDD is routed to the rear I/O module
! The PS/2 keyboard and mouse is routed to the rear I/O module
1.2.21 RTC and Battery
The RTC module keeps the date and time. On the MIC-3392 the RTC circuitry is con-
nected to a battery source (CR2032M1S8-LF, 3 V, 210 mAH).
1.2.22 IPMI
The MIC-3392 uses the Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) to monitor
the health of an entire system. A Renesas H8S/2167 microcontroller provides BMC
functionality to interface between system management software and platform hard-
ware. The MIC-3392 implements fully-compliant IPMI 2.0 functionality and conforms
to the PICMG 2.9 R1.0 specification. The IPMI firmware is based on proven technol-
ogy from Avocent. Full IPMI details are covered in Chapter 3.
