Introduction 1
cPCI-6520
1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The cPCI-6520 is a 6U CompactPCI® processor blade in sin-
gle-slot (4HP) width form factor featuring a single 22nm FC-BGA
3rd generation Intel® Core™ i7 Processor with quad/dual-cores
mated with the Mobile Intel® QM77 Express Chipset. The
cPCI-6520 supports dual channel DDR3-1066/1333/1600 ECC
SDRAM with one channel in a SO-CDIMM socket and one chan-
nel of soldered onboard memory (total memory capacity up to
16GB). Graphics is integrated in the Intel processor providing two
dual-mode DisplayPorts on the front panel with DVI/VGA/HDMI
supported by adapter cable and one independent display output
routed to rear I/O for a total of up to three independent displays.
The single slot (4HP) cPCI-6520 provides two GbE ports, two Dis-
playPorts, three USB 3.0 ports and one RS-232/422/485 serial
port on the front panel, and one 32/64-bit 133MHz PMC or PCI
Express x8 XMC site. Onboard storage capabilities include one
removable SATA 6 Gb/s direct connector for a 2.5" drive, onboard
CompactFlash socket and optional CFast support via adapter
board (shares space with 2.5" SATA drive). The cPCI-6520 is also
equipped with an Atmel AT97SC3204 Trusted Platform Module
(TPM) to meet security requirements (upon request).
A selection of optional Rear Transition Modules (RTM) provides
additional I/O functionality including two GbE ports via two 82574L
Gigabit Ethernet controllers for PICMG 2.16 support, six USB 2.0
ports, one USB 3.0 port, PS/2 keyboard/mouse port, two serial
ports, and High Definition Audio. The cPCI-6520 also provides
VGA, eDP and DVI interfaces routed to rear I/O. Two additional
DVI-I ports are available via an ATI E4690 GPU when mated with
the cPCI-R6700 RTM. Available rear I/O storage includes up to
three SATA ports and an optional CF socket or SD socket depen-
dent on selected RTM. Up to eight SAS ports supporting hardware
RAID via two mini-SAS x4 connectors are available when mated
with the cPCI-R6200 RTM.
2Introduction
The cPCI-6520 supports operation in both a system slot and in a
peripheral slot as a standalone blade. The cPCI-6520 is compliant
with the PICMG 2.9 specification and supports system manage-
ment functions based on the Intelligent Platform Management
Interface (IPMI) as well as hardware monitoring of physical char-
acteristics such as CPU and system temperature, DC voltages
and power status. The cPCI-6520 also supports Intel® Active
Management Technology (Intel® AMT) allowing users to remotely
manage hardware status.
The cPCI-6520 is ideal for demanding applications, providing sys-
tem integrators in military, communication and network security
segments a best-performance-per-watt, high I/O throughput solu-
tion with a reliable, smooth path for scalability and expansion.
