Powering the Panel PC
POWER
Power is supplied to the PPC3-12 Touchscreen PC through a 20-pin ATX connection (Part# G500-5000-076C), which
ships standard with the board. Three USB ports are available using this standard.
Additionally, OEM options are available for customers to choose supplying power either through an 8-pin (plug Part#
WECO 302-NSLW-HDS/08 and socket Part# WECO 302-NFLW-DS/08) or an optional 12-pin terminal strip connector.
Push button power is supplied through the terminal strip.

The power supply and how it is connected to the Single Board Computer (SBC) is very important.
Avoid Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Only handle the SBC and other bare electronics when electrostatic discharge
(ESD) protection is in place. Having a wrist strap and a fully grounded
workstation is the minimum ESD protection required before the ESD seal on the
product bag is broken.
Power Supply Budget
Evaluate your power supply budget. It is usually good practice to budget 2X the
typical power requirement for all of your devices.
Zero-Load Power Supply
Use a zero-load power supply whenever possible. A zero-load power supply
does not require a minimum power load to regulate. If a zero-load power
supply is not appropriate for your application, then verify that the single board
computer’s typical load is not lower than the power supply’s minimum load. If the
single board computer does not draw enough power to meet the power supply’s
minimum load, then the power supply will not regulate properly and can cause
damage to the SBC.
Use Proper Power Connections (Voltage)
When verifying the voltage, you should always measure it at the power
connector on the SBC. Measuring at the power supply does not account for
voltage drop through the wire and connectors.
The single board computer requires +5V (±5%) to operate. Verify the power
connections. Incorrect voltages can cause catastrophic damage.
Populate all of the +5V and ground connections. Most single board computers
will have multiple power and ground pins, and all of them should be populated.
The more copper connecting the power supply to the single board computer the
better.
Adjusting Voltage
If you have a power supply that will allow you to adjust the voltage, it is a good
idea to set the voltage at the power connector of the SBC to 5.1V. The SBC can
tolerate up to 5.25V, so setting your power supply to provide 5.1V is safe and
allows for a small amount of voltage drop that will occur over time as the power
supply ages and the connector contacts oxidize.
Power Harness
Minimize the length of the power harness. This will reduce the amount of voltage
drop between the power supply and the single board computer.
Gauge Wire
Use the largest gauge wire that you can. Most connector manufacturers have a
maximum gauge wire they recommend for their pins. Try going one size larger;
it usually works and the extra copper will help your system perform properly over
time.
APPENDIX - A
POWER SUPPLY
BEST PRACTICES
140226 PRODUCT MANUAL PPC3-12 19
Contact Points
WinSystems’ boards mostly use connectors with gold nish contacts. Gold
nish contacts are used exclusively on high speed connections. Power and
lower speed peripheral connectors may use a tin nish as an alternative
contact surface. It is critical that the contact material in the mating connectors
is matched properly (gold to gold and tin to tin). Contact areas made with
dissimilar metals can cause oxidation/corrosion resulting in unreliable
connections.
Pin Contacts
Often the pin contacts used in cabling are not given enough attention. The ideal
choice for a pin contact would include a design similar to Molex’s or Trifurcons’
design, which provides three distinct points to maximize the contact area and
improve connection integrity in high shock and vibration applications.
POWER DOWN
Make sure the system is completely off/powered down before connecting anything.
Power Supply OFF
The power supply should always be off before it is connected to the single board
computer.
I/O Connections OFF
I/O Connections should also be off before connecting them to the single board
computer or any I/O cards. Connecting hot signals can cause damage whether
the single board computer is powered or not.
MOUNTING AND PROTECTING THE SINGLE BOARD COMPUTER
Do Not Bend or Flex the SBC
Never bend or ex the single board computer. Bending or exing can cause
irreparable damage. Single board computers are especially sensitive to exing
or bending around Ball-Grid-Array (BGA) devices. BGA devices are extremely
rigid by design and exing or bending the single board computer can cause the
BGA to tear away from the printed circuit board.
Mounting Holes
The mounting holes are plated on the top, bottom and through the barrel of the
hole and are connected to the single board computer’s ground plane. Traces are
often routed in the inner layers right below, above or around the mounting holes.
Never use a drill or any other tool in an attempt to make the holes larger.
Never use screws with oversized heads. The head could come in contact with
nearby components causing a short or physical damage.
Never use self-tapping screws; they will compromise the walls of the mounting
hole.
Never use oversized screws that cut into the walls of the mounting holes.
Always use all of the mounting holes. By using all of the mounting holes you
will provide the support the single board computer needs to prevent bending or
exing.
140226 PRODUCT MANUAL PPC3-12 20
MOUNTING AND PROTECTING THE SINGLE BOARD COMPUTER (continued)
Plug or Unplug Connectors Only on Fully Mounted Boards
Never plug or unplug connectors on a board that is not fully mounted. Many
of the connectors t rather tightly and the force needed to plug or unplug them
could cause the single board computer to be exed.
Avoid cutting of the SBC
Never use star washers or any fastening hardware that will cut into the single
board computer.
Avoid Overtightening of Mounting Hardware
Causing the area around the mounting holes to compress could damage
interlayer traces around the mouting holes.
Use Appropriate Tools
Always use tools that are appropriate for working with small hardware. Large
tools can damage components around the mounting holes.
Placing the SBC on Mounting Standoffs
Be careful when placing the single board computer on the mounting standoffs.
Sliding the board around until the standoffs are visible from the top can cause
component damage on the bottom of the single board computer.
Avoid Conductive Surfaces
Never allow the single board computer to be placed on a conductive surface.
Almost all single board computers use a battery to backup the clock-calendar
and CMOS memory. A conductive surface such as a metal bench can short the
battery causing premature failure.
ADDING PC/104 BOARDS TO YOUR STACK
Be careful when adding PC/104 boards to your stack.
Never allow the power to be turned on when a PC/104 board has been
improperly plugged onto the stack. It is possible to misalign the PC/104 card
and leave a row of pins on the end or down the long side hanging out of the
connector. If power is applied with these pins misaligned, it will cause the I/O
board to be damaged beyond repair.
