Sections include: • Card specifications • Board layout Chapter 1 General Information 1 CHAPTER Introduction The SBC-551/552 is an all-in-one Single Board Computer (SBC) capable of handling the Intel Pentium P54C, P55C (MMX), AMD K6, as well as the Cyrix 6x86 (M1) and 6x86MX (M2) CPUs. Reliability, performance, flexibility, and adequate expansion capabilities are essential qualities for SBCs and their embedded applications and the SBC-551/552 provides all of these. The Smart Temperature Control technology (LM75 chip) monitors the CPU temperature and automatically slows down the CPU frequency when the CPU temperature exceeds a specified safe range, helping your system recover from abnormal temperature fluctuations. The SBC-551/552 supports the M-Systems DiskOnChip 2000 (optional) which is a new generation of high performance single- chip Flash Disk. It provides a Flash Disk (as a BIOS expansion) which doesn't require any bus, slots, or connectors. It is also the optimal solution for Single Board Computers because of its small size, easy integration, plug-and-play functionality, and its low power consumption. The DiskOnChip is available in capacities from 2MB to 72MB and fits in a standard 32-pin DIP socket. The SBC-551/552 also includes a high speed, local bus IDE controller which supports (through ATA PIO) mode 3 and mode 4 hard disks, Ultra DMA/33 (data transfer rates up to 33MB/sec) and up to 2 IDE devices. Onboard features include one high speed RS-232 serial port, one RS-232/422/485 serial port with 16C550 UARTs, one bidirectional SPP/EPP/ECP parallel port, and a floppy drive controller. In addition to the 486's 16 KB of onchip cache memory, the SBC-551/ 552 includes an extra 512 KB of pipeline-burst L2 cache memery. If program execution is halted by a program bug or EMI, the board's watchdog timer can automatically reset the CPU or generate an interrupt. This ensures reliability in unmanned or standalone systems. 2 SBC-551/552 User Manual The SBC-551/552 provides two 72-pin SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) sockets for intalling onboard system DRAM.

A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To close a jumper you connect the pins with the clip. To "open" a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2, and 3. In this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2 or 2 and 3. 3 2 1 Open Closed Closed 2-3 The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows: 1 2 3 Open Closed Closed 2-3 A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers. If you have any doubt about the best hardware configuration for your applications, contact your local distributor or sales represen- tative before you make any changes. 12 SBC-551/552 User Manual Safety precautions Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord from your chassis whenever you are working on it. Do not make connections while the power is on because sensitive electronic components can be damaged by the sudden rush of power. Only experienced electronics personnel should open the PC chassis. Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching the CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very sensitive to static electric charges. Use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic components on a static-dissipative surface or in a static-shielded bag when they are not in the chassis. Conflicts! The VGA controller of SBC-551/552 uses IDSEL No. 31, which is the same as that of the first PCI slot (i.e., "PCI1") on the PCI backplane (PICMG 2.0 standard). Therefore, when the onboard VGA function is enabled, the first PCI slot on the PCI backplane cannot have a peripheral card plugged in otherwise hardware conflicts can result. Chapter 2 Installation 13 Installing the CPU The SBC-551/552 CPU card supports most Pentium and its compati- ble CPUs. The system's performance depends on the CPU you choose. You can install or upgrade the CPU in the board's PGA socket by following the procedures outlined below. If your system has an existing CPU, you need to remove it before installing the new CPU. Removing a CPU 1. Disconnect power from the chassis, and unplug all connections to the CPU card. Then, remove the CPU card from the chassis by following the instructions in the user manual for your chassis. 2. Lift the CPU out of the PGA socket. The old chip may be difficult to remove. You may find spray chip lubricant, designed for pin-grid-array (PGA) devices, and a chip puller helpful. These are available at electronics hobbyists' supply stores. Installing a CPU To install the CPU, follow the instructions that came with it. If no documentation was provided, the general procedures for installing a CPU are outlined below: 1. Lubricate the pins on the CPU with lubricant for PGA devices. This makes the CPU slide in much easier and greatly reduces the chance of damaging the pins and other components. 2. Carefully align the CPU so that it is parallel to the socket. Make sure that the notch on the corner of the CPU matches the notch on the inside of the socket. 3. Gently push the CPU into the socket. There will probably be a small gap between the CPU and the socket even when it is fully seated. Do not use execessive force ! When you install a new CPU, you may have to adjust other settings on the board, such as CPU type, CPU clock, and PCI speed, in order to accommodate it. Make sure that the settings are correct for your CPU. Improper settings may damage the CPU. 14 SBC-551/552 User Manual Installing DRAM (SIMM1, SIMM2) The SBC-551/552 provides two 72-pin SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) sockets. The SIMM supports either Fast Page Mode (FPM) or Extended Data Output (EDO) DRAM with a speed of at least 70 ns. Depending on the combination of modules you use, you can install from 4 MB to 128 MB of RAM. Installing SIMMs NOTE 1: Pentium or compatible processors adopt 64 bit data bus. Since 72-pin SIMM can only provide 32 bit data bus width, two SIMM modules are required as one memory bank, and both SIMMs must be the same size and type. 1. Ensure that all power sources are disconnected. 2. Slip the memory module into the socket at a 45 degree angle. 3. Push the module toward the vertical posts at both ends of the socket until the module is upright and the retaining clips at both ends of the module click into place. When positioned correctly, the pins on top of the vertical posts should correspond to the circular holes on the ends of the module. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for each module you install. NOTE 2: Do not insert any SIMM module that contains more than 24 memory chips. SIMMs contain more than 24 chips exceed the driving capability of new generation chipsets.

To install the DOC on the board, follow the instructions below: 1. Plug the DOC into the socket. Make sure pin 1 of the DOC is aligned with pin 1 of the socket. 2. Push the DOC into the socket until it is firmly seated in the socket. Caution: the DOC may be permanently damaged if it is installed incorrectly. 3. Set the jumper for the memory address of the DOC. Note: The memory shadow function sometimes will create conflicts with the memory window. You should disable the memory shadow from the BIOS SETUP if the DOC cannot be accessed. Configure DOC as a boot device To configure a DOC as a boot drive, you should copy the operating system files into the DOC. The following procedure is an example of the initialization process. 1. Install a DOC into your system. 2. Insert a bootable floppy disk in drive A: and boot the system. 3. At the DOS prompt, type SYS C: to transfer the DOS system files to the DOC (assuming the DiskOnChip is installed as drive C:). Reboot the system. 4. Go to the BIOS Setup Utility by hitting the key. Set the type of Primary Master or C: Drive as Not Installed. 5. Remove the floppy disk from the drive A: and leave the BIOS Setup Utility. The system should boot from the DOC. Chapter 2 Installation 39 40 SBC-551/552 User Manual 3 Award BIOS Setup This chapter describes how to configure the BIOS for the SBC-551/552. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 41 CHAPTER System test and initialization These routines test and initialize board hardware. If the routines encounter an error during the tests, you will either hear a few short beeps or see an error message on the screen. There are two kinds of errors: fatal and non-fatal. The system can usually continue the boot up sequence with non-fatal errors. Non-fatal error messages usually appear on the screen along with the following instructions: press to RESUME Write down the message and press the F1 key to continue the bootup sequence. System configuration verification These routines check the current system configuration against the values stored in the card’s CMOS memory. If they do not match, the program outputs an error message. You will then need to run the BIOS setup program to set the configuration information in CMOS memory. There are three situations in which you will need to change the CMOS settings: 1. You are starting your system for the first time. 2. You have changed the hardware attached to your system. 3. The CMOS memory has lost power and the configuration information has been erased. The mainboard CMOS memory has an integral lithium battery backup. The battery backup should last ten years in normal service, but when it finally runs down, you will need to replace the complete unit. 42 SBC-551/552 User Manual Award BIOS setup Entering setup Power on the computer and press immediately.

Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 47 CPU Internal Cache/External Cache These two categories, if enabled, can speed up memory access. However, it depends on the CPU/chipset design. Quick Power On Self Test This category speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) after you power up the computer. If it is set to Enabled, BIOS will shorten or skip some check items during POST. Boot Sequence This category determines which drive to search first for the operating system. Swap Floppy Drive This item allows you to swap the floppy drive assignments so that drive A is treated as drive B and drive B is treated as drive A under DOS. The default setting is Disabled. Boot Up Floppy Seek During POST, the BIOS will determine if the floppy disk drive installed is 40 or 80 tracks. 360KB type is 40 tracks while 760KB, 1.2MB, and 1.44MB are all 80 tracks. Boot Up NumLock Status This allows you to determine the default state of the numeric keypad on an IBM-compatible extended keyboard. Boot Up System Speed This allows you to determine the Boot Up Speed. The choices are High/Low. 48 SBC-551/552 User Manual Gate A20 Option This entry allows you to select how gate A20 is handled. Gate A20 is a device used to address memory above 1 MB. Initially, gate A20 was handled via a pin on the keyboard. Today keyboards still provide this support, however it is more common and much faster for the system chipset to provide support for gate A20. The choices are thus: Normal and Fast. Security Option This category allows you to limit access to the system. The choices are System: which requires a password at boot up and Setup: which only requires a password to access the setup utility. Video BIOS Shadow Determines whether the video display card BIOS will be copied into system DRAM in order to increase display speed and is required for system performance. However, it is optional depending on the chipset design. The default setting is Enabled. Shadowing Address Ranges The next six lines, from C8000-CBFFF Shadow to DC000-DFFFF Shadow are address ranges for shadowing other expansion card ROMs. If there are any expansion cards with ROMs installed in your system, you have to know the address range they use in order to shadow them specifically.

System BIOS Cacheable When enabled, access to the system BIOS ROM addressed at F0000H-FFFFFH are cached if the cache controller is enabled. Video BIOS Cacheable As with caching the system BIOS above, enabling the video BIOS cache will cause access to the video BIOS addressed at C0000H to C7FFFH to be cached if the cache controller is also enabled. Memory Hole At 15M-16M In order to improve performance, certain space in memory can be reserved for ISA cards, but must be mapped below 16 MB. VGA Shared Memory Size This sets the size of the 5598 model's onboard video display memory, which is drawn from the total installed system memory. The options range from 0.5MB to 4MB in 0.5MB intervals. Remem- ber, when you increase the amount of display memory you are subtracting from the system memory. VGA Memory Clock You can choose different speeds for the VGA Memory Clock: from 40 up to 70MHz in 1MHz increments. Smart Temperature Control Settings One of the key features of the SPC-551/552 is its "Smart Tempera- ture Control" function that automatically trigger events in the event of CPU overheating. The sensitivity of the triggers are determined by the user. The following 5 items can be customized. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 51 CPU Warning Temperature The LM75 chip monitors the CPU temperature and triggers alarms depending on the BIOS settings. The temperature at which the events are triggered range from 50C/122F to 100C/212F in 5C increments. Current CPU Temperature Provides the current temperature of the CPU in both Celsius and Fahrenheit. CPU Speed Overheat This setting determines what happens to the CPU speed if it is detected to be overheating (as determined by the "CPU Warning Temperature" setting above). The available choices are Full Speed, 1/4, 1/3, and 1/2. Speaker Alarm Overheat The user can choose to have a speaker alarm sound if the CPU is detected to be overheating (as determined by the "CPU Warning Temperature" setting above). The choices are Enabled or Dis- abled. System Fan Work Control The user can determine what happens to the additional fan connected to CN5 (see CN5 - Fan Connector) if the CPU is detected to be overheating (as determined by the "CPU Warning Tempera- ture" setting above). The choices are Overheat or Always On. 52 SBC-551/552 User Manual Power management setup R O M P C I / I S A B I O S ( 2 A 5 I I A K 9 ) C M O S S E T U P U T I L I T Y A W A R D S O F T W A R E , I N C .

In the power management scheme there are four system states which proceed in the following sequence: Normal � Doze � Standby � Suspend There are four selections for Power Management (PM): Disabled Turns off PM Max Saving Maximized power saving by activating maxi- mum power saving settings after one minute of system inactivity. Min Saving Produces less power saving by activating moderate power saving settings after one hour of system inactivity. User Defined You set the power saving options manually. With the exception of Disabled, three of the above selections have "fixed-mode" settings. Therefore, when PM is set to Disabled, some items which are predefined will become unmodifiable. PM Control by APM When this is set to Yes, the Advanced Power Management feature in Microsoft Windows controls power management operation. The default setting is No. Video Off Option User can select 4 different modes for turning off the video. The modes are a function of the PM mode of the computer. The choices are All Modes�Off, Always On, Suspend�Off, and Susp, St- by�Off. The table below summarizes the behavior of the monitor in relation to the four PM modes. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 55 PM Mode Monitor Behavior All Modes Off - Always On Suspend Off Susp, Stby Off For example, if you choose Suspend�Off, then the monitor will turn off if the computer is in the Suspend PM mode. Video Off Method This governs monitor power saving by controlling how power management blanks the monitor screen. The default setting blanks the screen and turns off vertical and horizontal scanning and requires a monitor with "green" features. If you don't have this type of monitor, use the Blank option. DPMS (Display Power Management System) allows the BIOS to control the video display card if the card has the DPMS feature. V/H SYNC+Blank (Default) BLANK (non-green monitor, less saving) DPMS (Display card must support DPMS) Modem Use IRQ If you have a modem installed in your system, you can enter which IRQ it is using so that APM can control it. Hot Key SMI This allows the user to use the hot key to enter the Suspend mode. Press any key to wake up the comput- er. The default setting is Disabled. 56 SBC-551/552 User Manual PM Timers The following four modes are Green PC power saving functions which are only user configureable when "User Defined Power Management" has been selected. See above for the available Power Management selections. HDD Off After When enabled and after the selected time of system inactivity, the hard disk drive will be powered down while all other devices will remain active. Doze Mode This sets the period of system inactivity after which the system goes into Doze mode, the most limited power saving state. The settings range from 20 seconds to 40 minutes and can be set manually when power management is in User Define mode. The default setting is Disabled. When the system goes into power saving mode, power management will skip to the next mode in the sequence if this is disabled. Standby Mode This sets the period of system inactivity after which the system goes into Standby mode, the intermediate power saving state. The settings range from 20 seconds to 40 minutes and can be set manually when power management is in User Define mode. The default setting is Disabled. When the system goes into power saving mode, power management will skip to the next mode in the sequence if this is disabled. Suspend Mode This sets the period of system inactivity after which the system goes into Suspend mode, the maximum power saving state. The settings range from 20 seconds to 40 minutes and can be set manually when power management is in User Define mode. The default setting is Disabled. When the system goes into power saving mode, power management will skip to the next mode in the sequence if this is disabled. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 57 PM Events PM events are I/O events whose occurrence can prevent the system from entering a power saving mode or can awaken the system from such a mode. In effect, the system remains alert for anything which occurs to a device which is configured as Enabled, even when the system is in a power down mode. When an I/O device wants to gain the attention of the operating system, it signals this by causing an IRQ (Interrupt ReQuest) to occur. When the operating system is ready to respond to the request, it interrupts itself and performs the service. The following is a list of IRQs, which can be disabled: • COM Ports Activity • LPT Ports Activity • HDD Ports Activity • VGA Activity • IRQ3 (COM 2) • IRQ4 (COM 1) • IRQ5 (LPT 2) • IRQ6 (Floppy Disk) • IRQ7 (LPT 1) • IRQ8 (RTC Alarm) • IRQ9 (IRQ2 Redir) • IRQ10 (Reserved) • IRQ11 (Reserved) • IRQ12 (PS/2 Mouse) • IRQ13 (Coprocessor) • IRQ14 (Hard Disk) • IRQ15 (Reserved) 58 SBC-551/552 User Manual PNP/PCI configuration setup By choosing the PCI CONFIGURATION SETUP option from the Initial SETUP SCREEN menu, the screen below is displayed.

This section covers some very technical items and it is strongly recommended that only experi- enced users make any changes to the default settings. Resource Controlled by The Award Plug and Play BIOS has the capacity to automatically configure all of the boot and Plug and Play compatible devices. 60 SBC-551/552 User Manual However, this will only work if you are running a Plug and Play ® . operating system such as Windows 95 Reset Configuration Data This item allows you to reset the configuration data of PnP devices. IRQ3/4/5/7/9/10/11/12/14/15, DMA0/1/3/5/6/7 Assigned to These items allow you to determine the IRQ/DMA assigned to the ISA bus and is not available to any PCI slot. PCI IRQ Activated By This sets the method by which the PCI bus recognizes that an IRQ service is being requested by a device. Under all circumstances, you should retain the default configuration unless advised by your system manufacturer. The choices are Level/Edge. PCI IDE IRQ Map To This allows you to configure your system to the type of IDE disk controller in use. The more apparent difference is the type of slot being used. If you have equipped your system with a PCI controller, changing this allows you to specify which slot has the controller and which PCI interrupt (A, B) is associated with the connected hard drives. This setting refers to the hard disk drive itself, rather than individu- al partitions. Selecting PCI Auto allows the system to automatically determine how your IDE disk system is configured. Chapter 3 Award BIOS Setup 61 Load BIOS defaults/Load SETUP defaults These options allow users to load BIOS DEFAULTS the default system values directly from ROM. LOAD BIOS DEFAULTS provides the most stable settings, though they do not provide optimal performance. LOAD SETUP DEFAULTS, on the other hand, provides maximum system performance. If the stored record created by the setup utility becomes corrupted (and therefore unusable), BIOS defaults will load automatically when you turn the SBC-551/552 on.

This feature ensures system reliability in industrial stand-alone and unmanned environments. Appendix A Programming the Watchdog Timer 83 APPENDIX Programming the watchdog timer How to program the wtachdog timer 1. To set the time-out interval of watchdog timer: -- output the desired value to port 0x443. Since the data is of 1 byte, the maximum value will be 255. In our design 1 ~ 127 will denote 1sec ~ 127sec, though 129 ~ 255 will denote lmin ~ 127min. e.g. outportb(0x443, 30); // set interval to 30 seconds outportb(0x443, 0x85); // set interval to 5 minutes 2. To set the time-out event: -- output data to prot 0x444, • 0: reset system • 1, 2, 3: IRQ 10, 15, 11 respectively • 4: NMI e.g. outportb(0x444, 0); // set time-out event to reset-system 3. To disable watchdog timer: -- output any value to port 0x80, e.g. outportb(0x80, data); // disable watchdog timer 4. To ebable or refresh watchdog timer(the watchdog timer will return to its initial value, then count down): -- access the I/O port 0x443, e.g. outportb(0x80, 0); // disable watchdog timer inportb(0x443); // refresh watchdog timer * note: if you want to refresh the watchdog timer, you have to disable it first. 84 SBC-551/552 User Manual Demo program outportb(0x444, 0): // set time-out event to reset-system outportb(0x443x 10); // set time-out interval to 10 seconds iutportb(0x443); // enable watchdog timer customer_job(); // execute your job here, be sure your job will finished within 10 seconds outportb(0x80, 0); // refresh watchdog timer, otherwise the system will reset after time-out outputb(0x443, 20); // set time-out interval to 20 seconds inportb(0x443); // enable watchdog timer another_job(); // another job finished in 20 seconds outportb(0x80, 0) // disable watchdog timer ... ...
