2.1 Introduction
ADLER is a Single Board Computer in pico-ITX form factor (just 100 x 72mm) based on the Intel® Atom X Series, Intel® Celeron® J/N Series and Intel® Pentium® N
Series family of System-on-Chips (SOCs) formerly coded as Apollo Lake, a series of Dual / Quad Core SOCs with 64-bit instruction set.
These SOCs embed all the features usually obtained by combination of CPU + platform Controller hubs, all in one single IC, which allows, therefore, the system
minimisation and performance optimisation, which is essential for boards with sizes so reduced as for picoITX SBCs, which offers all functionalities of standard PC
boards in just 100x72mm.
This single chip solution includes the memory controller, which gives support for up 32-bit Single-/Dual-/Quad-Channel LPDDR4 2400 MT/s Memory.
All SOCs embed an Integrated Intel® HD Graphics 500 series controller with up to 18 Execution Units, which offer high graphical performances, with support for
Microsoft® DirectX12, OpenGL 4.3, OpenCL 1.2, OpenGLES 3.0 and HW acceleration for video encoding and decoding of HEVC (H.265), H.264, JPEG/MJPEG.
It is also possible the HW video decoding only of VP9, MPEG2, VC-1 and WMV9. This embedded GPU can drive three independent displays, by using HDMI, LVDS
and DP++ interfaces. Any combinations of these video interfaces are supported.
Mass Storage capabilities of the board include two external S-ATA Gen3 channels (one available on a standard SATA 7p Male connector, the other on an M.2
Socket 2 Key B Slot, a standard 4-bit SD interface and one optional eMMC Drive soldered on board.
Further features usable on ADLER board are WWAN M.2 Socket 2 Key B Slot connected to a miniSIM slot for modems, four USB ports (two USB 3.0 and two USB
2.0 only), HD Audio, up to 2x Gigabit Ethernet connections, one M.2 Socket 1 Key E Slot for WiFi+BT M.2 modules.
The board is available both in commercial and in industrial temperature range.
Please refer to following chapter for a complete list of all peripherals integrated and characteristics.

paragraph 5.1
2.3 Electrical specifications
ADLER needs to be supplied only with an external 12VDC ± 5% power supply. It is possible to supply the module by using two different power connectors
(factory alternatives)
The first possible power connector is type Molex Mini-Fit connector, type MOLEX p/n 39-28-1023 or
equivalent.
The pin-out is indicated in the table here on the left, and the mating connector is MOLEX p/n 39-01-
2020 or equivalent with crimp terminals series 5556/44476.
As an alternative, the VIN voltage can be supplied through a standard 5.7mm (internal pin, diameter 2.0 mm)
Power Jack CN2.
Internal pin is VIN power line.
2.3.1 Power available
When powering ADLER with a PSU with characteristics greater or equal to the one described at beginning of previous paragraph, please consider well what is the
typical scenario for using the board (i.e., which peripherals will be connected)
Internal power section is able to supply a maximum of 8A@5V for external devices supplied directly by the module (i.e. USB devices, optionally SSD or SATA disks,
display).
Consider that each USB 2.0 port requires 500mA, and USB 3.0 ports need 0.9A each, so if all 5 USB ports are used, then the 5V power section would be able to
supply further 4.7A (about 24W) to other peripherals, like SATA Disk and/or LVDS display. Anyway, if all this current is needed by external peripherals, a 40W PSU
cannot supply further power for internal circuitry of the board.
Since all the power must be supplied by an external PSU only, please balance well the typical final configuration, considering both the power consumption of the
board itself (in paragraph 2.3.2 are detailed current consumption for possible different SOCs) and the power consumption of external devices.
This way it is possible to calculate preliminarily if a 40W PSU can be sufficient for system needing or if most powerful PSUs are required.

2.3.3 RTC Battery
For the occurrences when the module is not powered with an external power supply, on board there is a cabled coin Lithium Battery to supply, with a 3V voltage,
the Real Time Clock embedded inside the SoC.
Battery used is a cabled CR2032-LD Lithium coin-cell battery, with a nominal capacity of 220mAh.
The battery is not rechargeable and can be connected to the board using dedicated connector CN3 which is a 2-pin
p1.27 mm type MOLEX p/n 53261-0271 or equivalent, with pinout shown in the table on the left.
Mating connector: MOLEX 51021-0200 receptacle with MOLEX 50079-8000 female crimp terminals.
In case of exhaustion, the battery should only be replaced with devices of the same type. Always check the orientation before
inserting and make sure that they are aligned correctly and are not damaged or leaking.
Never allow the batteries to become short-circuited during handling.
Batteries supplied with ADLER board are compliant to requirements of European Directive 2006/66/EC regarding batteries and accumulators. When putting out of
order ADLER board, remove the batteries from the board in order to collect and dispose them according to the requirement of the same European Directive above
mentioned. Even when replacing the batteries, the disposal has to be made according to these requirements.
2.3.4 Power rails naming convention
In all the tables contained in this manual, Power rails are named with the following meaning:
_RUN: Switched voltages, i.e. power rails that are active only when the board is in ACPIs S0 (Working) state. Examples: +3.3V_RUN, +5V_RUN.
_ALW: Always-on voltages, i.e. power rails that are active both in ACPIs S0 (Working), S3 (Standby) and S5 (Soft Off) state. Examples: +5V_ALW, +3.3V_ALW.
_U: unswitched ACPI S3 voltages, i.e. power rails that are active both in ACPIs S0 (Working) and S3 (Standby) state. Examples: +1.5V_U
Other suffixes are used for application specific power rails, which are derived from same voltage value of voltage switched rails, if it is not differently stated (for
example, +5VHDMI is derived from +5V_RUN, and so on).

2.4 Mechanical specifications
According to picoITX form factor, board dimensions are: 72 x 100 mm (4.53 x 6.50).
The printed circuit of the board is made of ten layers, some of them are ground planes, for disturbance rejection.
