The Arrandale+ECC processor Platform Environment Control Interface (PECI) can take the corresponding action to the protect system during catastrophic overheating. Figure 2-5 36 Board Thermal Management Diagram COMX-CORE Series Installation and Use (6806800K11F) Hardware Preparation and Installation The PECI is a one-wire interface that provides a communication channel between a PECI client (the processor) and a PECI master (the PCH). The processor digital thermal sensor (DTS) provides an improved capability to monitor device hot spots, which inherently leads to more varying temperature readings over short time intervals. Within the processor, the DTS converts an analog signal into a digital value representing the temperature relative to PROCHOT# circuit activation. Processor digital thermal sensor controls processor temperature by modulating (starting and stopping) the processor core clocks when the processor silicon reaches its maximum operating temperature. A pin "PROCHOT#" is used in this mode, when PROCHOT# is output and active, it indicate that processor thermal control circuit is activated. When the PROCHOT# is input from ISL62882, it indicate the VRM temperature is out of specified value, the processor TTC is activated. When the CPU junction temperature is more than 125C, CPU will assert the THERMTRIP#. Signal stop all bus activity and the core power must be shut down in the specified time. 2.3 Unpacking and Inspecting the Module Damage of Circuits Electrostatic discharge and incorrect installation and removal of the product can damage circuits or shorten their life.

COMX-CORE Series Installation and Use (6806800K11F) 77 Functional Description 4.20 Real-time Clock (RTC) COMX-CORE Series supports a battery-backed real-time clock. The chipset Ibex Peak-M contains a Motorola MC146818A-compatible real-time clock with 256 bytes of batterybacked RAM. The real-time clock performs two key functions: keeping track of the time of day and storing system data, even when the system is powered down. The RTC operates on a 32.768 KHz crystal and a 3 V battery. The RTC also supports two lockable memory ranges. By setting bits in the configuration space, two 8-byte ranges can be locked to read and write accesses. This prevents unauthorized reading of passwords or other system security information. The RTC also supports a data alarm that allows for scheduling a wake up event up to 30 days in advance, rather than just 24 hours in advance. 78 COMX-CORE Series Installation and Use (6806800K11F) Chapter 5 BIOS 5.1 POST After power-up or reset, the BIOS performs a self-test, POST, that attempts to determine if further operation is possible and that the detected configuration is expected. This process can complete normally or result in a warning or an error. The boot process does not stop after a warning but displays a message on the primary display device. If an error is detected, the boot process is halted. If possible, a message will be displayed but failures early on in the test can only be indicated in POST codes. The POST process display depends on the Quiet Boot option. Viewing all checkpoints generated by Aptio firmware requires a checkpoint card, which is also named "POST Card" or "POST Diagnostic Card". They are PCI or LPC add-in cards that show the value of I/O port 80h on a LED display. These cards are available at the electronic or computer market around the world. 5.2 Boot Process While performing the functions of the traditional BIOS, Aptio 4.x core follows the firmware model described by the Intel Platform Innovation Framework for EFI ("the Framework"). The framework is associated to the following "boot phases", which can be described by various state code. 5.3 Security (SEC) - initial low-level initialization Pre-EFI Initialization (PEI) - memory initialization1 Driver Execution Environment (DXE) - main hardware initialization2 Boot Device Selection (BDS) - system setup, pre-OS user interface & selecting a bootable device (CD/DVD, HDD, USB, Network, Shell, etc.) Initiating Setup During the boot, pressing the 'F2' key on the keyboard requests the Setup utility be launched once the self-test is complete and before searching for a boot device. See the Setup description later in this document to describe the operation of this utility. If you exit Setup without saving any changes, the boot process continues with the search for a boot device. If the changes are saved, the motherboard loads the new settings and resets - re-starting the entire boot process. COMX-CORE Series Installation and Use (6806800K11F) 79 BIOS 5.4 Setup Utility The BIOS incorporates a Setup utility that allows the user to alter a variety of system options. This section describes the operation of the utility by describing the various options available through a set of hierarchical menus. Not all options are available with all products and some depend on BIOS customizations. The current settings are stored in the SPI FLASH NVRAM area and any changes can be copied back to this area via the Exit menu. The operation of the BIOS defaults is described later in this document. To start the utility, you must press the F2 key during the early stages of POST after power-up. Note that this functionality operates with PS/2 keyboards, USB keyboards when enabled, and via the console redirection facility when enabled. The table below briefly describes the primary menus, most of which have sub-menus. The following sections describe the menus in detail. Table 5-1 BIOS Primary Menu 80 Menu Options Main BIOS information and date and time Advanced Advanced features including ACPI, CPU, IDE, USB, HW monitoring and Serial Port settings Chipset Features including Host Bridge and Southbridge Boot Boot mode and Boot options Security Administrator's password Save & Exit Save with or without changes, Load/save default settings and Boot Device Selection COMX-CORE Series Installation and Use (6806800K11F) BIOS The Aptio navigation can be accomplished using a combination of the keys.
