3 Heatspreader An important factor for each system integration is the thermal design. The heatspreader acts as a thermal coupling device to the module and its aluminum plate is 4mm thick. The heatspreader is thermally coupled to the CPU via a thermal gap filler and on some modules it may also be thermally coupled to other heat generating components with the use of additional thermal gap fillers.
3.1 Heatspreader Dimensions Note All measurements are in millimeters. Torque specification for heatspreader screws is 0.3 Nm. Mechanical system assembly mounting shall follow the valid DIN/IS0 specifications. Caution When using the heatspreader in a high shock and/or vibration environment, congatec recommends the use of a thread-locking fluid on the heatspreader screws to ensure the above mentioned torque specification is maintained.
4 Connector Subsystems Rows A, B, C, D The conga-TCA is connected to the carrier board via two 220-pin connectors (COM Express Type 6 pinout) for a total of 440 pins connectivity. These connectors are broken down into four rows. The primary connector consists of rows A and B while the secondary connector consists of rows C and D. In this view the connectors are seen “through” the module. C-D A-B 5 PCI Express Lanes (only 4 when USB 3.0 option present) General Purpose I/Os 2x Serial ATA II 8x USB 2.
4.1 Primary Connector Rows A and B The following subsystems can be found on the primary connector rows A and B. 4.1.1 Serial ATA™ (SATA) Two Serial ATA connections are provided via the Intel® CG82NM10 (NM10) PCH. These SATA ports are capable of up to 3.0 Gb/s transfer rate. The conga-TCA provides 2 SATA ports externally. 4.1.2 USB 2.
4.1.5 LPC Bus conga-TCA offers the LPC (Low Pin Count) bus through the use of the Intel® CG82NM10 (NM10) PCH. There are many devices available for this Intel® defined bus. The LPC bus corresponds approximately to a serialized ISA bus yet with a significantly reduced number of signals. Due to the software compatibility to the ISA bus, I/O extensions such as additional serial ports can be easily implemented on an application specific baseboard using this bus. See section 8.2.
4.1.10 LCD The Intel® Atom™ D2000/N2000 series processors on the conga-TCA offers a single channel LVDS interface. There is one LVDS transmitter channel in the LVDS interface and it consists of 4-data pairs and a clock pair each. The LVDS data pair is used to transfer pixel data as well as the LCD timing control signals. The N2000 series CPUs found on the conga-TCA support 1x18 bpp only. The D2000 series support both 1x18 bpp and 1x24 bpp. 4.1.
4.1.14 Power Control PWR_OK Power OK from main power supply or carrier board voltage regulator circuitry. A high value indicates that the power is good and the module can start its onboard power sequencing. Carrier board hardware must drive this signal low until all power rails and clocks are stable. Releasing PWR_OK too early or not driving it low at all can cause numerous boot up problems.
The conga-TCA PWR_OK input circuitry is implemented as shown below: +V12.0_S0 R4 R1%100kS02 R1 R1%47k5S02 R13 R1%1k00S02 PWR_OK R2 R1%20k0S02 TB TBC847 To Module Power Logic R5 R1%47k5S02 The voltage divider ensures that the input complies with 3.3V CMOS characteristic and also allows for carrier board designs that are not driving PWR_OK.
The conga-TCA provides support for controlling ATX-style power supplies. When not using an ATX power supply then the conga-TCA’s pins SUS_S3/PS_ON, 5V_SB, and PWRBTN# should be left unconnected. SUS_S3#/PS_ON# The SUS_S3#/PS_ON# (pin A15 on the A-B connector) signal is an active-low output that can be used to turn on the main outputs of an ATXstyle power supply.
4.2 Secondary Connector Rows C and D The following subsystems can be found on the secondary connector rows C and D. 4.2.1 USB 3.0 The conga-TCA offers two USB 3.0 ports with the integration of a USB 3.0 xHCI compliant host controller (Texas Instrument TUSB7320). This controller is implemented through the use of one PCI Express™ lane and provides SuperSpeed, high-speed, full-speed and low-speed traffic on the bus. Note The USB 3.0 is an optional feature. 4.2.
5 Additional Features 5.1 congatec Board Controller (cBC) The conga-TCA is equipped with a STMicroelectronics STM32 microcontroller. This onboard microcontroller plays an important role for most of the congatec embedded/industrial PC features. It fully isolates some of the embedded features such as system monitoring or the I²C bus from the x86 core architecture, which results in higher embedded feature performance and more reliability, even when the x86 processor is in a low power mode.
5.5 Power Loss Control The cBC has full control of the power-up of the module and therefore can be used to specify the behaviour of the system after a AC power loss condition. Supported modes are “Always On”, “Remain Off” and “Last State”. 5.6 Embedded BIOS The conga-TCA is equipped with congatec Embedded BIOS, which is based on American Megatrends Inc. Aptio UEFI firmware. These are the most important embedded PC features: 5.6.
5.6.4 congatec Battery Management Interface In order to facilitate the development of battery powered mobile systems based on embedded modules, congatec AG has defined an interface for the exchange of data between a CPU module (using an ACPI operating system) and a Smart Battery system. A system developed according to the congatec Battery Management Interface Specification can provide the battery management functions supported by an ACPI capable operating system (e.g.
5.7 Security Features The conga-TCA can be equipped optionally with a “Trusted Platform Module“ (TPM 1.2). This TPM 1.2 includes coprocessors to calculate efficient hash and RSA algorithms with key lengths up to 2,048 bits as well as a real random number generator. Security sensitive applications like gaming and e-commerce will benefit also with improved authentication, integrity and confidence levels. 5.8 Suspend to Ram The Suspend to RAM feature is available on the conga-TCA.
6 conga Tech Notes The conga-TCA has some technological features that require additional explanation. The following section will give the reader a better understanding of some of these features. This information will also help to gain a better understanding of the information found in the System Resources section of this user’s guide as well as some of the setup nodes found in the BIOS Setup Program description section. 6.
Note To ensure that the TCC is active for only short periods of time, thus reducing the impact on processor performance to a minimum, it is necessary to have a properly designed thermal solution. The Intel® Atom™ D2000/N2000 series processor’s respective datasheet can provide you with more information about this subject. THERMTRIP# signal is used by Intel®’s Atom™ D2000/N2000 series processors for catastrophic thermal protection.
produce any noise. Use the “passive cooling trip point” setup node in the BIOS setup program to determine the temperature threshold that the operating system will use to start or stop the passive cooling procedure. • Active Cooling During this cooling policy the operating system is turning the fan on/off. Although active cooling devices consume power and produce noise, they also have the ability to cool the thermal zone without having to reduce the overall system performance.
6.4 ACPI Suspend Modes and Resume Events conga-TCA supports S3 (STR= Suspend to RAM). For more information about S3 wake events see section 9.4.5 “ACPI Submenu”.
6.5 USB 2.0 EHCI Host Controller Support The Intel® CG82NM10 (NM10) PCH supports up to eight USB ports. The 8 available USB ports are shared between 1 EHCI host controller and the 4 UHCI host controllers. The muxing between the UHCI and EHCI host controllers is performed by the port-routing logic integrated into the EHC functionality. If a device not capable of USB 2.0 high-speed signalling is connected or if the EHCI software drivers are not present,then the UHCI controller owns the port.

10 Additional BIOS Features The conga-TCA uses a congatec/AMI AptioEFI that is stored in an onboard Flash Rom chip and can be updated using the congatec System Utility, which is available in a DOS based command line, Win32 command line, Win32 GUI, and Linux version. The BIOS displays a message during POST and on the main setup screen identifying the BIOS project name and a revision code.
10.4 Hard Disk Security Features Hard Disk Security uses the Security Mode feature commands defined in the ATA specification. This functionality allows users to protect data using drive-level passwords. The passwords are kept within the drive, so data is protected even if the drive is moved to another computer system. The BIOS provides the ability to ‘lock’ and ‘unlock’ drives using the security password. A ‘locked’ drive will be detected by the system, but no data can be accessed.
