SMARC-sXBTi / Introduction

2 Introduction

2.1 Product Description

The new Kontron SMARC-sXBTi Computer-on-Modules has been developed to comply with the SGET specification and is

equipped with Intel® Atom™ processor E3800 series and up to 8 GB RAM, optional with ECC. They support the extended

temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, measure only 82mm x 50mm and have an especially low-profile design thanks to

the use of edge card connectors. Nevertheless, there is still enough space for up a 64GB on-board SSD to store OS and

application data. A highlight of the pin-out is the mobile feature set with 3 UARTs with complete function range also for,

e.g., GPS as well as support of the MIPI-compliant serial camera interface (MIPI CSI = Mobile Industry Processor Interface

Camera Serial Interface). The powerful Intel® Gen 7 Graphics are carried out via HDMI 1.4 and LVDS (optional eDP) with

up to 2560×1600 and 60 Hz to the display. Further interfaces include 1x GbE LAN via Intel® Ethernet Controller I210, 1x

USB 3.0 and 2x USB 2.0, amongst others. Customer-specific extensions can be implemented via 2 SDIO and 3 PCIe x1

lanes with 5GT/s.

2.2 SMARC™ Computer-on-Modules

The SMARC™ standard was developed especially for new modules with ARM- and SOC-processors and is characterized by

the extremely flat build of its form factor. It is based on the MXM 3.0 connector with 314 pins and a construction height of

just 4.3 millimeters and it thus allows robust and flatly constructed designs with a cost-effective card edge connector. The

connector is also available in a shock- and vibration-resistant version for rough environmental conditions. Furthermore,

the standard integrates dedicated interfaces for the latest ARM and SOC processors which not only means LVDS, 24-bit

RGB and HDMI support but also support of embedded DisplayPort for future designs. In addition, and for the first time,

dedicated camera interfaces are being incorporated into a COM standard. OEMs profit from minimized design effort and

bill of material costs. SMARC™ defines two different module sizes in order to offer a high level of flexibility regarding

different mechanical requirements: a short modules measuring 82 mm x 50 mm and a full-size module measuring 82 mm x

80 mm.

SMARC™ is the low-power embedded architecture platform for computer-on-modules based on ARM technology.

» Creating mobile, embedded, connected solutions

» Scalable building blocks

» Optimized pin-out definition for ARM technology

» Ultra low-power, low-profile solutions

» Constructed to withstand harsh industrial environments

3.4.3 Supply Voltage Ripple

» Maximum 100 mV peak to peak 0 – 20 MHz

SMARC-sXBTi / Product Specification

3.5 Power Control

Power Supply

The SMARC-sXBTi supports a power input from 3,0V - 5,25V. The supply voltage is applied through the VCC pins (VCC) of

the module connector.

Power Button (PWR_BTN#)

The power button (Pin P128) is available through the module connector described in the pinout list. To start the module

via Power Button the PWRBTN# signal must be at least 50ms (50ms ≤ t < 4s, typical 400ms) at low level (Power Button

Event).

Pressing the power button for at least 4seconds will turn off power to the module (Power Button Override).

CB_POWER_BAD#

The SMARC-sXBTi provides an external input for a Carrier Board Power Bad signal (Pin S150). The implementation of this

subsystem complies with the SMARC Specification. CB_POWER_BAD# is internally pulled up to 3.3V and must be high level

to power on the module.

Reset Button (RST_CB_IN#)

The reset button (Pin P127) is available through the module connector described in the pinout list. The module will stay in

reset as long as RST_CB_IN# is grounded.

Standard modules are available for industrial grade temperature range. Please see chapter

Product Specification for available variants for extended or commercial temperate grade

With Kontron heatspreader plate assembly

The operating temperature defines two requirements:

» the maximum ambient temperature with ambient being the air surrounding the module.

» the maximum measurable temperature on any spot on the heatspreader's surface

Without Kontron heatspreader plate assembly

The operating temperature is the maximum measurable temperature on any spot on the module's surface.

SMARC-sXBTi / Product Specification

3.8 MTBF

The following MTBF (Mean Time Before Failure) values were calculated using a combination of manufacturer’s test data, if

the data was available, and the Telcordia (Bellcore) issue 2 calculation for the remaining parts.

The calculation method used is “Telcordia Method 1 Case 3” in a ground benign, controlled environment (GB,GC). This

particular method takes into account varying temperature and stress data and the system is assumed to have not been

burned in.

Other environmental stresses (extreme altitude, vibration, salt water exposure, etc) lower MTBF values.

System MTBF (hours): 176227@40°C

Fans usually shipped with Kontron Europe 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 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.
