2 Introduction 2 Introduction 2.1 ETX®-CD Based on the ETX® standard, Kontron’s ETX®-CD, powered by a variety of Intel Pentium core duo processors, is a next-generation embedded module that brings advanced technology to tomorrow’s applications, as well as continuing today’s legacy devices.
2 Introduction 2.2 ETX® Documentation This product manual serves as one of three principal references for an ETX® design. It documents the specifications and features of ETX®-CD. The other two references, which are available from the Kontron Embedded Modules Web site, include: Note: 2.3 ® The ETX® Specification defines the ETX® module form factor, pinout, and signals.
3 Specifications 3 Specifications 3.
3 Specifications System Memory The ETX®-CD uses 200-pin DDR2 Small Outline-Dual Inline Memory Modules (SO-DIMMs). One socket is available for a DDR2-533 or DDR2-667 module up to 2GB capacity. Note: ETX®-CD equipped with the CeleronM423 is not able to drive memory modules faster than DDR2-533.
3 Specifications AC ’97 (Audio): Intel 945GM; ® Up to 20 bit sample resolution ® Multiple sample rates up to 48bit ® Independent bus master logic for dual Microphone Input, dual PCM audio input, PCM audio input, modem input, modem output and S/PDIF output.

3 Specifications 3.2 Mechanical Specifications 3.2.1 Dimensions Note: ® 95.0 mm x 114.0 mm ® Height approx. 12 mm (0.4”) The maximum height of electrical components on the bottom side of the module is specified with 2.0mm in the ETX@ specification. On the ETX@-CD the Southbridge is soldered on the bottom side and Intel specified the ICH7 with 2.28mm ± 0.21mm 3.3 Electrical Specifications 3.3.1 Supply Voltage ® 3.3.2 Supply Voltage Ripple ® 3.3.
3 Specifications ETX®-CD Core Duo Processor T2500 CPU Clock Mode Power Consumption 3.3.
3 Specifications 3.4 Environmental Specifications 3.4.1 Temperature Operating: (with Kontron Embedded Modules heat-spreader plate assembly): ® Ambient temperature: 0°C to 60°C ® Maximum heatspreader-plate temperature: 0°C tp 60°C (*) Non-operating: ® -30°C to 85°C See the Thermal Management chapter for additional information. Note: *The maximum operating temperature with the heatspreader plate is the maximum measurable temperature on any spot on the heatspreader’s surface.
3 Specifications Notes: Fans usually shipped with Kontron Embedded Modules GmbH products have 50,000-hour typical operating life. The above estimates assume no fan, but a passive heat sinking arrangement. Estimated RTC battery life (as opposed to battery failures) is not accounted for in the above figures and need to be considered for separately. Battery life depends on both temperature and operating conditions. When the Kontron unit has external power; the only battery drain is from leakage paths.

5 Special Features 5 Special Features 5.1 Watchdog Timer This feature is implemented in the Winbond 83627HF super I/O. You can configure the Watchdog Timer (WDT) in BIOS setup to start after a set amount of time after power-on boot. The WDT can also be controlled by the JIDA32 Library API (Refer to Appendix F: JIDA Standard). The application software should strobe the WDT to prevent its timeout. Upon timeout, the WDT resets and restarts the system.
6 Design Considerations 6 Design Considerations 6.1 Thermal Management A heat-spreader plate assembly is available from Kontron Embedded Modules GmbH for the ETX®-CD. The heat-spreader plate on top of this assembly is NOT a heat sink. It works as an ETX®-standard thermal interface to use with a heat sink or other cooling device. External cooling must be provided to maintain the heat-spreader plate at proper operating temperatures.

7 Important Technology Information 7 Important Technology Information The following technological information is designed to give the reader a better understanding of some of features of the ETX®-CD. This information can be referenced when reading the System Resources and BIOS Operation sections that follow. There are also references to additional documentation that will help to develop a better understanding of the technical information described herein. 7.
7 Important Technology Information Automatic mode does not require any additional hardware, software drivers, or interrupt handling routines. Note: With a properly designed thermal solution, the TCC is only active for very short periods, hence processor performance impact is expected to be so minor that it would not be detectable. The Intel® Core Duo® and Core2Duo® processors support the THERMTRIP# signal for catastrophic thermal protection.
7 Important Technology Information declares the temperature threshold the OS uses to decide when to start/stop active cooling devices. See section ETX®-CD onboard Fan connectorfor more information about the ETX®-CD onboard Fan control. Passive Cooling The OS reduces the power consumption of the processor by throttling the processor clock to reduce the temperature of the thermal zone. Passive cooling devices (processor) produce no noise.
7 Important Technology Information 7.5.
7 Important Technology Information 7.5.3 BIOS Settings Feature Option Disabled 15 C 23 C … 55 C 63 C … 119 C Active Trip Point 7.5.4 Description This value controls the temperature of the ACPI active trip point - the point in which the OS will turn on the CPU fan (connector on PCB). If DTS is enabled only values below 97°C are valid.
7 Important Technology Information 7.5.5 Processor Clock Throttling The ACPI OS assesses the optimum CPU performance change necessary to lower the temperature using the following equation: ΔP[%] = TC1(Tn-Tn-1) + TC2(Tn-Tt) ΔP is the performance delta, Tt is the target temperature = passive cooling trip point. The two coefficients TC1 and TC2 and the sampling period TSP are hardware dependent constants the end user must supply (setup options section ACPI Control Submenu).

10 BIOS Operation 10.5 Preventing Problems When Updating or Restoring BIOS Updating the BIOS represents a potential hazard. Power failures or fluctuations that may occur during updating the Flash ROM can damage the BIOS code, making the system unbootable.
