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. Please note, that the processors temperature is steadily measured by a special controller (MAX1617), attached to the onboard SMBus® (System Management Bus).

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. However, while saving considerable power consumption, the data throughput of the processor is also reduced.
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 16m3/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.
User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU The measuring results in the table above are based on a forced vertical airflow of 16m3/h around each card slot in a fully equipped 19-inch system rack, achieved by three Papst 4312M fans operated at 12V. Under these conditions, the CC8 heatsink delivers a thermal resistance of about 1K/W.
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). The supported on-board memory is entirely chacheable.

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). The USB connector can source up to 0.5A/5V, and is protected by an electronic power switch against shortening.
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. The 1.4MB floppy disk drive has been swapped against LS120 or CD-RW drives, attached to the IDE connector. Hence, the CC8-BLUES is virtually provided with all necessary I/O ports.
User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Watchdog/Reset The CC8-BLUES is provided with the MAX705 supervisor circuit, which controls the supply voltages 3.3V, 5V and the CPU core voltage, and generates a power-on reset signal. The manual push-button reset is also passed through the MAX705 for appropriate pulse conditioning. The reset manual push-button is situated at the front panel. The button is indent mounted behind the front and requires a tool, e.g.
User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Firmware Hub (Flash BIOS) The BIOS is stored in the 82802Ax Firmware Hub (there are second sources available with deviant part numbers). The firmware hub contains a nonvolatile memory core based on flash technology, allowing the BIOS to be upgraded. Currently, there are three variants of the FWH available: x = A: 2Mbit x = B: 4Mbit x = C: 8Mbit The FWH is soldered at the bottom side of the CC8-BLUES.
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 multiprocessing, additional CPU boards on the CPCI bus must hide themselves behind a so called non-transparent PCI bridge.
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.
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. The CC8-BLUES is equipped with the MIC2580 Hot Swap Controller.

User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Installing or Replacing the Processor Note: If you decide to install a processor on your own, observe the precautions in 'Before You Begin' As default, the CC8-BLUES comes fully equipped and tested with a processor. So normally there should be no need to install a processor. Due to the very compact construction of the CC8-BLUES, a ZIF socket for the processor could not implemented.
User Guide CC8-BLUES • Multi-Processing CompactPCI CPU Replacement of the Battery When your system is turned off, a battery maintains the current time-of-day clock and the values in CMOS RAM current. The battery is rechargeable und should last during the lifetime of the CC8-BLUES. For replacement, the old battery must be desoldered, and the new one soldered. Observe the cell polarization. We suggest that you send back the board to EKF for battery replacement.
