ReadyBoard 910 Reference Manual 3

Chapter 2 Product Overview

This overview presents general information about the EPIC form factor and the ReadyBoard 910 Single

Board Computer (SBC). After reading this chapter you should understand:

• EPIC architecture

• Product Description

• ReadyBoard 910 features

• Major components

• Connectors

• Specifications

EPIC Architecture

In 2004, five companies collaborated to fill the void between the EBX size and the PC/104 size with a new

industry standard form factor (115mm x 165mm, or 4.5" x 6.5") called “Embedded Platform for Industrial

Computing™ (EPIC).” The EPIC standard principally defines physical size, mounting hole pattern, and

power connector locations. It does not specify processor type or electrical characteristics. There are

recommended connector placements for I/O, graphics, and memory expansion. This embedded SBC

standard ensures that embedded system OEMs can standardize their designs and that full featured embedded

computing solutions can be designed into even more space constrained environments than ever before.

The EPIC standard boasts the same highly flexible and adaptable system expansion as EBX, allowing easy

and modular addition of functions such as Firewire or wireless networking not usually contained in standard

product offerings. The EBX system expansion is based on popular existing industry standards, PC/104™,

PC/104-Plus™, and PCI-104™. PC/104 places the ISA bus on compact 3.6" x 3.8" modules with self-

stacking capability. PC/104-Plus adds the power of a PCI bus to PC/104 while retaining the basic form

factor, but PCI-104 expansion cards only provide the PCI Bus to the PC/104 form factor. Using PC/104

expansion cards, an EPIC board can be easily adapted to meet a variety of embedded applications. See

Figures 2-1 and 2-2.

The EPIC standard also brings stability to the mid-sized embedded board market and offers OEMs assurance

that a wide range of products will be available from multiple sources – now and in the future. The EPIC

specification is freely available to all interested companies, and may be used without licenses or royalties.

Chapter 2 Product Overview

4 Reference Manual ReadyBoard 910

Product Description

The ReadyBoard 910 is a mid-sized, EPIC-compatible, high quality single-board system, which contains all

the component subsystems of a PC/AT PCI motherboard plus the equivalent of up to 4 PCI expansion

boards. The ReadyBoard 910 is based on the high-performance, high-integration, Intel® Core™ i5 and i7

CPUs, which incorporate multi cores with integrated Northbridge Graphics and Memory Hubs (GMHs),

providing high-performance processor cores, memory controllers for up to 16GB of standard DDR3

SODIMM memory, and graphics controllers for VGA, LVDS, and DVI signals driven by the chipset. One of

these processors combined with the matching chipset provide the designer a complete integration solution

based on the EPIC form factor and Revision 2.0 of the EPIC standard.

Each ReadyBoard 910 incorporates an Intel BD82HM65 chipset for the Platform Controller Hub (PCH)

function featuring two USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, two SATA 3.0 ports, one SATA 2.0 port

dedicated for the SSD, six PCIe x1 ports, one SMBus port, one GPIO port, and one HD audio port. The

SMSC Super I/O controller, SCH3114IU-NU, adds legacy I/O functions for PS/2 keyboard and mouse

interfaces and two serial port interfaces. The ReadyBoard 910 also supports two independent Gigabit

Ethernet interfaces through PCIe x1 Ports 3 and 4, one PCI-104 interface through PCIe x1 Port 2, and one

PCIe Mini Card interface through PCIe x1 Port 6.

The ReadyBoard 910 can be expanded through the PCI-104 expansion bus to accept PCI-104 cards that

offer compact, self-stacking, modular expandability for additional system functions. The PCI-104 bus only

implements the signal set for the PCI bus and is available on the 120-pin (4 rows of 30 pins) expansion bus

connector. The PCI bus operates at 33 MHz clock speed. See Figure 2-2.

Among the many embedded enhancements on the ReadyBoard 910 that ensure embedded system operation

and application versatility are a Watchdog Timer, serial console support, battery-free boot, optional

customizable logo screen (see Sales Representative), on-board PCIe Mini Card socket, and ACPI support for

sleep states.

The ReadyBoard 910 is particularly well suited to embedded applications by meeting the size, power

consumption, temperature range, quality, and reliability demands of embedded system applications. It can

be stacked with ADLINK MiniModules™ or other PCI-104 compliant expansion boards, or it can be used as

a powerful computing engine. The ReadyBoard 910 requires only a +5V power supply, however, certain

functions such PCI-104, LVDS, fans, and PCIe Mini Card require +12V.

NOTE The pinout tables in Chapter 3 of this manual identify pin sequence using the

following method: A 10-pin header with two rows of pins, using odd/even

numbering, where pin 2 is directly across from pin 1, is noted as 10-pin, 2 rows, odd/

even (1, 2).Alternately, a 10-pin connector using consecutive numbering, where pin

6 is directly across from pin 1, is noted in this way: 10-pin, 2 rows, consecutive (1,

6). The second number in the parenthesis is always directly across from pin-1. See

Figure 2-5.
