Introduction 1

cPCI-6930

1 Introduction

1.1 Overview

The cPCI-6930 is a 6U CompactPCI® single board computer fea-

turing a single 32nm Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2400 Series with

8/6/4-cores in LGA1356 socket mated with the Intel® C604 Series

Platform Controller Hub. The cPCI-6930 supports three channels

of DDR3-1333/1600 ECC registered SDRAM in three RDIMMs

channel up to total 48GB capacity. Graphics is provided by a Sili-

con Motion SM750 2D GPU supporting up to 1920x1440 resolu-

tion. Four front panel 10/100/1000BASE-T ports are provided by

the Intel® 82580EB Gigabit Ethernet controller.

The cPCI-6930 Series supports a 64bit/66MHz CompactPCI bus

with optional PMC site with 32/64-bit 133MHz PCI bus or

PCI-Express x8 XMC site. The 8HP cPCI-6930 provides four GbE

ports, one VGA port, three USB 2.0 ports, two USB 3.0 ports, one

DB-9 RS-232 serial port on the front panel. Onboard storage capa-

bilities include 4GB of soldered SATA NAND flash and a SATA 6

Gb/s port convertible to direct connector for an onboard 2.5" SATA

drive, CFast adapter, or CompactFlash adapter, with an onboard

2.5” SAS drive supported by BOM option (only 1

SATA/CFast/CF/SAS device supported).

A selection of optional Rear Transition Modules (RTM) provides

additional I/O functionality including two GbE ports for PICMG

2.16 support, USB 2.0 ports, PS/2 keyboard/mouse port, serial

ports, High Definition Audio, SATA ports, additional VGA/ DVI

interfaces (dependent on selected RTM), and optional CF or SD

socket. Up to eight SAS ports supporting hardware RAID via two

mini-SAS x4 connectors are available when mated with the

cPCI-R6200 RTM, and signals for two SAS ports are available on

J5 by BOM option.

For dense computing requirements, the cPCI-6930 supports oper-

ation in both a system slot and in a peripheral slot as a standalone

blade. The cPCI-6930 is compliant with the PICMG 2.9 specifica-

tion and supports system management functions based on the

Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) as well as hard-

ware monitoring of physical characteristics such as CPU and sys-

tem temperature, DC voltages and power status.

2Introduction

The cPCI-6930 is ideal for server-grade applications, providing

datacom equipment providers, system integrators, robust com-

puter makers and security sectors a flexible, cost-optimized solu-

tion for mission critical applications with a reliable, smooth path for

scalability and expansion.
