2 PCM-3350 User's Manual

1.1 Introduction

The PCM-3350 is the ultimate cost-effective solution for limited space

applications. It is a new NS Geode Biscuit PC with enhanced graphics

function. It uses a NS CS5530A chipset which supports TFT LCDs. It

offers all the functions of an AT-compatible industrial computers on a

single board. The PCM-3350 comes with an embedded high-perfor-

mance GX1-300 processor on-board. For maximum performance, the

PCM-3350 Series also supports an SDRAM SODIMM socket that can

accept up to 128 MB memory.

On-board features include an Ethernet interface, socket for Compact

Flash Card, Enhanced IDE interface with up to Ultra DMA transfer

protocol, one parallel port, two serial ports (RS-232 and RS-232/422/

485) and a PS/2 keyboard/mouse interface. A SVGA/LCD display

controller (LCD, and CRT displays) allows LCD screen resolutions up

to 1024 x 768 and CRT resolutions up to 1280 x 1024 @ 16 colors.

The PCM-3350 complies with the "Green Function" standard and

supports three types of power saving features: Normal, Doze, and

Sleep modes.

The display type configuration is done through the software. A single

Flash chip holds the system BIOS and the VGA BIOS. This minimizes

the chip usage and eases configuration. You can change the display

BIOS simply by programming the Flash chip.

If you need additional functions, the PCM-3350 has a PC/104 connec-

tor for future upgrades.

Installation

This chapter tells how to set up the

PCM-3350 hardware. It includes instruc-

tions on setting jumpers and connecting

peripherals, switches and indicators. Make

sure you read all the safety precautions

before you begin the installation proce-

dure.

2.2 Locating connectors

Warning: Make sure you use the correct component side.

Improper installation can cause serious damage to

your hardware!

10 PCM-3350 User's Manual

2.3 Safety precautions

Warning! Always completely disconnect the power cord from

your board whenever you are working on it. Do not

make connections while the power is on, because

sensitive electronic components can be damaged by

a sudden rush of power.

Caution! Always ground yourself to remove any static charge

before touching the board. 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.

2.4 Ethernet connector (CN1)

(PCM-3350F/N only)

The PCM-3350F/N is equipped with a high performance 32-bit PCI-bus

Fast Ethernet interface which is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3u

100/10Base-T specifications. It is supported by all major network

operating systems.

2.4.1 Ethernet connector (CN1)

10/100Base-T connects to the PCM-3350F/N via an adapter cable to

the 10-pin 2 mm connector.

2.4.2 Network boot

The network boot feature is built into the BIOS. It can be enabled or

disabled in the chipset setup of the CMOS configuration. Refer to

"BIOS Setting" in Chapter 4 for more information.

2.5 LCD display connector (CN2)

CN2 is a 40-pin dual-in-line header and is used to connect an LCD

display.
