1.3 Functional Blocks  
The following topics provide overviews of the cPB-4612's main features, some of which are shown in the  
functional block diagram below.

Functional Block Diagram  
1.3.1 CompactPCI/PSB Architecture  
The cPB-4612 is designed to operate in a PICMG 2.0 CompactPCI backplane. If the system is placed in a  
system slot, the bridge will automatically configure itself as a transparent bridge, and the board will perform  
as the host. If the board is placed in a peripheral slot, the bridge will automatically configure itself as a non-  
transparent bridge, and the board will perform as a peripheral device.  
When used in accordance with the CompactPCI Packet Switching Backplane Specification, PICMG 2.16,  
Version 1.0, the cPB-4612 functions as a "Dual Link Port Node" board. The cPB-4612 can be connected to a  
5
system's fabric-switched Link Ports A and B, and can be inserted into system or peripheral slots. The cPB-  
4612 is keyed for insertion into compatible slots.  
The "CompactPCI" topic in Appendix D contains a link to the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group.  
1.3.2 Processor  
The cPB-4612 uses the Mobile Pentium M in a micro FCBGA package. The 1MB or 2MB on-die transfer L2  
cache is integrated with the CPU, eliminating the need for separate components and improving  
performance. The FCBGA package Pentium M processor also operates with a 400 MHz Processor Side  
Bus for very fast access to memory and data.  
The "Mobile Pentium M (FCBGA Package)" topic in Appendix D contains a link to the datasheet for the  
processor.  
1.3.3 Chipset  
The Intel 855GME chipset consists of two controller hubs. The 855GME Memory Controller Hub (MCH)  
supports a 400MHz system bus, DDR200/266/333 memory, and an integrated graphics solution w/Intel  
Extreme Graphics 2 technology. The 6300ESB I/O Controller Hub (ICH4) makes a direct connection to the  
memory for faster access to peripherals. It provides the features and bandwidth required for applied  
computing-usage models. The following is a list of features of the 855GME chipset:  
Designed, validated, and optimized for the Intel Pentium M with NetBurst™ micro-architecture  
using proven and established building blocks  
400MHz system bus delivers a high-bandwidth connection between the Intel Pentium M and the  
platform, providing 3x the bandwidth over platforms based on Intel® Pentium® III processors  
USB controllers provide high performance peripherals with 480Mbps of bandwidth. This results  
in a significant increase over previous integrated 1-4 port hubs at 12Mbps  
Dual UARTs  
Serial ATA  
64bit/66Mhz PCI-X bus  
32bit/33Mhz PCI bus  
Dual Ultra ATA/100 controllers, coupled with the Intel® Application Accelerator - a performance  
software package - support faster IDE transfers to storage devices  
The Intel® Application Accelerator software provides additional performance over native ATA  
drivers. The Intel Application Accelerator improves system performance by improving I/O  
transfer rates and enables faster O/S load time resulting in accelerated boot times  
Embedded lifecycle support  
The "Intel 855GME Chipset" topic in Appendix D contains a link to information about the chipset.  
1.3.4 PCI-to-PCI Bridge  
The cPB-4612 has a 64bit/66Mhz PCI-X bridge to the CompactPCI backplane. The bridge will configure  
itself as a transparent bridge when the board is in a system slot, so that the cPB-4612 can be the system  
host. If the cPB-4612 is placed in a peripheral slot, the bridge configures itself as a non-transparent bridge,  
and will show up as a PCI device to the host. This allows use of the board in either a system or peripheral  
slot.  
6
1.3.5 Memory and I/O Addressing  
The cPB-4612 supports up to 2GB of DDR333/266/200 via two right-angled SODIMM sockets. Memory  
can be purchased from DTI separately.  
See the "Memory Configuration" and "I/O Configuration" topics in Chapter 2 for more information.  
1.3.6 Power Ramp Circuitry  
The cPB-4612 features a power controller with power ramp circuitry that allows the board's voltages to be  
ramped in a controlled fashion. The power ramp circuitry eliminates large voltage or current spikes caused  
by hot swapping boards. This controlled ramping is a requirement of the CompactPCI Hot Swap  
Specification**, PICMG 2.1, Version 1.0.  
The cPB-4612's power controller unconditionally resets the board when it detects that the 3.3V, 5V, and 12V  
supplies are below an acceptable operating limit. Minimum voltage thresholds for the cPB-4612 are: 4.75V  
(5V supply), 3.0V (3.3V supply), and 10.0V (+12V supply).  
1.3.7 Rear-Panel I/O  
The following I/O signals are available from the J5 connector at the back of the cPB-4612. These signals are  
available for use by a rear panel transition board such as the cRT-4612.  
Serial port (COM2)  
USB Ports 2 and 3  
Secondary IDE channel  
Serial ATA channel  
Video  
1.3.8 Video  
The cPB-4612 supports VGA video using Intel’s 855GME video interface. The video is accessed through  
the CompactPCI J5 connector. The 855GME can share up to 32MB of system memory with the internal  
video.  
The onboard video from the Intel 855GME may be disabled by a jumper setting. This will allow use of a PCI  
video card only. If the onboard video is enabled and a PCI video card is installed, the PCI video card will be  
the primary video source.  
The Intel 855GME Chipset topic contains a link to the datasheet for this device.  
1.3.9 PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) Interface  
The cPB-4612 provides a 64bit/66Mhz PMC site and a 32bit/33Mhz PMC site, both with front panel access.  
The 64bit/66Mhz PMC site is only 3.3V tolerant. The 32bit/33Mhz can be configured to be either 3.3V or 5V  
via a jumper setting. Voltage keys are also provided to prevent inadvertently placing a PMC card on PMC  
site that does not support its VI/O voltage.  
The cPB-4612 w/ IDE provides a 64bit/66Mhz PMC site and a 2.5” HDD IDE connector. The 64bit/66Mhz  
PMC site is only 3.3V tolerant. Voltage keys are also provided to prevent inadvertently placing a PMC card  
on PMC site that does not support its VI/O voltage.  
The "PMC Specification" topic in Appendix D contains a link to the sponsoring organization for the PMC  
specification.  
1.3.10 Dual 10/100/1000 Ethernet Interfaces  
The cPB-4612 provides two 10/100/1000BaseTx Ethernet channels (ENET A and ENET B) through the  
Intel 82546EB Fast Gigabit Ethernet Multifunction PCI Controller. The 82546EB consists of both the Media

hard drive. The IDE interface is implemented using Intel’s 6300ESB I/O Controller Hub (ICH). Note that the  
onboard 2.5” IDE connector is not present on versions of the board that support the 33MHz/32 bit PMC site.  
All versions of the cPB-4612 supports a second ATA/100 IDE interface through the CompactPCI J5  
connector. The IDE interface is implemented using Intel’s 6300ESB I/O Controller Hub (ICH).  
All versions of the cPB-4612 supports a Serial ATA/150 interface through the CompactPCI J5 connector.  
The IDE interface is implemented using Intel’s 6300ESB I/O Controller Hub (ICH).  
Both the 2.5” IDE drive connector and 33Mhz/32bit PMC site cannot both be present at the same time, since  
they are in the same physical space on the board. Which one is populated depends on the version of the  
board.  
See Chapter 6, "IDE Controller", for more information.  
1.3.13 Serial I/O  
The cPB-4612 provides support for two RS-232 compatible serial ports. COM1 is accessible at the  
faceplate through a 9-pin DSUB connector. This port is typically used for test access. COM2 is available at

Appendix D provides a link to the datasheet for this device.  
1.3.18 Reset  
The push-button reset on the cPB-4612's faceplate functions as a "Hard Reset". See Chapter 4, "Reset," for  
more information about reset sources for the cPB-4612.  
1.3.19 Two-Stage Watchdog Timer  
The watchdog timer optionally monitors system operation and is programmable for different timeout periods  
(from 1 microsecond to 10 minutes). It is a two-stage watchdog, meaning that it can be enabled to produce a  
system management interrupt (SMI) or an IRQ (APIC 1, INT 10) before it generates a Reset. Failure to  
strobe the watchdog timer within the programmed time period may result in an SMI, a reset request, or both.  
A register bit can be read to indicate if the watchdog timer caused the reset event. This watchdog timer  
register is not cleared on power-up, enabling system software to take appropriate action if the watchdog  
generated the reboot.  
See Chapter 7, "Watchdog Timer," for more information, including sample code.

Notes:  
1. Consult manufacturer of installed PMC card for actual values.  
2. In no case shall the total power dissipated by the PMC card exceed 10.0 W.  
The cPB-4612 comes with a heatsink that allows the processor to operate between 0° and approximately  
50°C ambient with a minimum of 200 LFM (1 meter per second) of external airflow. It is the users'  
responsibility to ensure that the cPB-4612 is installed in a chassis capable of supplying adequate airflow.  
The maximum power dissipation of the processor (FCBGA package) is 25W. External airflow must be  
provided at all times. See Appendix A, "Specifications," and Appendix C, "Thermal Considerations," for  
more details.  
It is strongly recommended that the airflow be measured while the cPB-4612 is installed in its intended  
location. Insert a thermistor type air velocity meter (Kane-May KM4007 or similar) through the PMC  
access on the faceplate and make the air velocity measurement near the processor heat sink. Power  
should not be applied to the cPB-4612 during airflow measurements (slightly disengage the cPB-4612  
from the backplane connectors if necessary).  
CAUTION: The processor "core" temperature must never exceed 100°C under any condition  
of ambient temperature or usage. This may result in permanent damage to the processor.  
The cPB-4612 may contain materials that require regulation upon disposal. Please dispose of this product  
in accordance with local rules and regulations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your  
local authorities or the Electronic Industries Alliance at http://www.eiae.org/**.  
2.3 Memory Configuration  
The cPB-4612 components can address up to 4 GB of memory, but the board only has two SO-DIMM  
sockets and can physically only hold two sticks of memory. The address space is divided between  
memory local to the board and memory located on the Local PCI bus. Any memory not reserved or  
occupied by a local memory device (DRAM/flash) is available to PCI memory devices.  
The cPB-4612 can support up to two sticks of either 256 MB, 512 MB, 1 GB DDR SDRAM. 1MB of  
L2 cache is integrated with the Pentium® –M processor.

protected by a checksum word for system integrity.  
To access the Setup utility, press F2 during the system RAM check at boot-up. When Setup runs, an  
interactive configuration screen displays. Refer to the following "Setup Screen" illustration for an example.  
Setup parameters are divided into different categories. The available categories are listed in a menu  
down the left side of the setup screen. The parameters within the highlighted (current) category are listed  
in the main (right) portion of the Setup screen. Context sensitive help can be displayed for each  
parameter by highlighting the parameter and pressing F1. A legend of keys is listed at the bottom of the  
Setup screen.  
Use the up and down arrow keys to select a category from the menu. Use the up and down arrow keys to  
select a parameter in the main portion of the screen. Use the +/– or keys to change the value of a  
parameter.  
Solid arrows next to menu items in the main screen indicate submenus. To display a submenu, use the  
up and down arrow keys to highlight the submenu and then press Enter.

2.8 Operating System Installation  
For more detailed information about your operating system, refer to the documentation provided by the  
operating system vendor.  
1. Install peripheral devices. CompactPCI* devices are automatically configured by the BIOS during  
the boot sequence.  
2. Most operating systems require initial installation on a hard drive from a floppy or CD-ROM drive.  
These devices should be configured, installed, and tested with the supplied drivers before  
attempting to load the new operating system.  
3. Read the release notes and installation documentation provided by the operating system vendor.  
Be sure to read any README files or documents provided on the distribution disks, as these  
typically note documentation discrepancies or compatibility problems.  
4. Select the appropriate boot device order in the SETUP boot menu depending on the OS  
installation media used. For example, if the OS includes a bootable installation floppy, select  
Removable Media as the first boot device and reboot the system with the installation floppy  
installed in the floppy drive. (Note that if the installation requires a non-bootable CD-ROM, it is  
necessary to boot an OS with the proper CD-ROM drivers in order to access the CD-ROM drive).  
17  
5. Proceed with the OS installation as directed, being sure to select appropriate device types if  
prompted. Refer to the appropriate hardware manuals for specific device types and compatibility  
modes of DTI products.

3.1.10 J18 (Ejector Switch)  
The ejector handles are used when cPB-4612 is inserted or removed (hot swapped) from a chassis that is  
powered on. When a customer wishes to remove a board from a system that is powered on then the  
ejector handles should be opened just enough to disengage the handles from the chassis, but without  
fully disengaging the J-connectors from the back of the chassis. This will trigger a shutdown of the  
operating system and then the BMC will power off the board and light the blue hot swap LED on the front  
panel. Once the blue LED on the front of the board is lit, then it is safe to remove the board from the  
chassis.  
Note: In order for the shutdown sequence of the OS to take place a hot swap driver must be  
installed into the OS. See the cPB-4612 support page for this driver or procure the cPB-4612  
hot swap kit.  
The J18 (ejector handles) need to be closed in order for the board to boot up.

4 Reset  
This chapter discusses the reset types and reset sources on the cPB-4612. If necessary, the cPB-4612’s  
board reset characteristics can be tailored to the requirements of a specific system.  
24  
4.1 Reset Types and Sources  
The cPB-4612’s reset types are listed below. The sources for each reset type are detailed in the following  
topics.  
Hard Reset: All devices are held in reset.  
Soft Reset: CPU initialization only. Other devices are not reset.  
Backend Power Down: The backend logic is powered off. The board is powered on and is held in  
reset.  
NMI: Non-maskable interrupt. Though not a reset in the strict sense, an NMI can have the same  
effect as other resets.  
4.1.1 Hard Reset Sources  
System Register CF9h (6300ESB Reset Control Register)  
Bits 1 and 2 in this register are used by the 6300ESB to generate a hard reset or a soft reset. During a  
hard reset, the 6300ESB asserts CPURST, PCIRST#, and RSTDRV. Additionally, it resets its core and  
suspends well logic.  
4.1.2 Soft Reset Sources  
System Register CF9h (6300ESB Reset Control Register)  
Bits 1 and 2 in this register are used by the 6300ESB to generate a hard reset or a soft reset. During a  
soft reset, the ICH4 asserts INIT to the CPU for 16 PCICLK. This causes the processor to enter "real  
mode", initialize its internal registers, and begin instruction execution from FFFFFFF0h (the boot vector).  
Keyboard Controller Reset  
The keyboard controller generates a keyboard controller reset when FEh is written to port 64h. This  
causes the 6300ESB to assert INIT to the CPU.  
Keyboard CTRL-ALT-DEL  
Simultaneously pressing these keys calls a BIOS function that reboots the system.  
Note: This method does not work under operating systems that trap calls to this BIOS  
function.  
Watchdog Timer (System Register Address 79h)  
The watchdog timer may be programmed to generate a "CPU Init" if it is not strobed within a given time-  
out period. This function is discussed in Chapter 7, "Watchdog Timer."  
4.1.3 Backend Power Down Sources  
Board Extraction  
When a board is extracted from an enclosure (specifically, when the "board-select" [BD_SEL] pin is  
disengaged), the hot swap controller unconditionally removes backend power from the board and holds  
the board in reset.  
Low Voltage  
When any of the 3.3V, 5V, or 12V supply voltages are detected to be below an acceptable operating limit,  
the hot swap controller unconditionally removes backend power and holds the board in reset.  
25  
4.1.4 NMI Sources  
Watchdog Timer (System Register Address 79h)  
The watchdog timer may be programmed to generate a non-maskable interrupt if it is not strobed within a  
given time-out period. This function is discussed in Chapter 7, "Watchdog Timer."

5 System Monitoring and Control  
The cPB4612 has an IPMI System Monitor that complies with PICMG® 2.9 specification, and complies  
with IPMI Specification 1.5. This allows a PICMG 2.9 compliant chassis that utilizes a chassis manager,  
or Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) to detect the presence of the cPB4612 and make Field  
Replaceable Unit (FRU) information, and Sensor Device Records (SDR’s) available. Sensors monitor  
voltages, CPU and system temperature, and other inputs, including the front latch, which can generate  
events that are recorded in the BMC’s System Event Log (SEL). The IPMI System Monitor has both an  
IPMB and a dedicated basic serial interface, so that it is possible for the cPB4612 to acquire FRU and  
sensor information directly from the IPMI System Monitor. The firmware on the IPMI System Monitor can  
be upgraded via the serial interface or over IPMB.  
27  
5.1 Monitoring and Control Functions  
The IPMI System Monitor has a dedicated serial interface to the host processor on the cPB4612. It is a  
16550-compatible UART that is configurable in SETUP. If this interface is not required, it can be  
disabled. Otherwise, it will be given a unique serial port address and interrupt. Note that the interrupt  
cannot coincide with the other COM ports; it is not shareable.  
The serial interface is fixed at 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, full duplex. It complies with  
IPMI serial “basic” mode, as detailed in IPMI Spec 1.5, section 13.4, which permits IPMB packets to be  
transmitted and received using framing bytes and escape sequences. The packet structure otherwise is  
identical to the IPMB:  
Figure 5.1: Packet Structure  
Because the serial interface in this case is dedicated, the responder address and requester address bytes  
can be anything. The IPMI System Monitor, though, will always put its actual IPMB slave address in the  
rsAddr field of a response packet.  
The IPMI 1.5 specification defines a basic mode serial port as a single session interface, since there is no  
session ID in the packet. This IPMI System Monitor, at this time, does not support Get Session Challenge  
and Activate Session commands, because the serial interface is dedicated to the IPMI system monitor,  
and the interface is always “up.”  
5.2 IPMB  
The IPMB is an I2C® interface that is routed through the backplane and connects to the BMC in the  
chassis to allow discovery of the IPMI System Monitor. Its operation is covered in the IPMI specification.  
It is always active.  
28  
5.3 Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) Information  
Board information, such as serial number, date of manufacture, OEM name, part number, etc., are  
retrievable from the FRU. It complies with the IPMI FRU 1.0 Specification. The information in the FRU  
can be customized to add other product information, such as asset tag, other part numbers, etc.  
5.4 Sensors  
The sensors that the cPB4612 supports with the IPMI System Monitor can be retrieved in the Sensor  
Data Records (SDR’s) via normal IPMI commands. They include:  
System Ambient Temperature  
CPU Temperature  
VTT DDR  
+12V  
+1.5V  
+1.8V  
CPU Core Voltage  
+3.3V  
ONCTL#  
SLOT  
+5V  
Front Latch  
These sensors (with the exception of ONCTL and SLOT), when enabled by the BMC, will generate  
sensor events on the IPMB. These events will normally be logged by the BMC and time-date stamped.  
On temperature and voltage sensors, if sensor readings cross any of the non-critical, critical, or non-  
recoverable thresholds, the IPMI System Monitor will generate IPMB event data to inform the BMC. The  
IPMI System Monitor allows the BMC, via IPMI commands, to override its sensor thresholds  
5.5 Firmware Updates  
Firmware updates are possible through either the serial or IPMB interface. A special utility will be  
provided should a firmware update be necessary.

6 IDE Controller  
The cPB-4612 with IDE has an on-board IDE controller that provides two IDE channels for interfacing with  
up to four IDE devices. The IDE controller is incorporated into the Intel 6300ESB, which supports ATA-  
100. There is one 50-pin IDE connector on the cPB-4612 with IDE, which supports up to two IDE devices  
(though there is only space on the board itself to mount one device). The secondary IDE channel is  
available through the rear panel connector (J5).  
The "Intel 855GME Chipset" topic in Appendix D provides a link to the 6300ESB datasheet.  
30  
6.1 Features of the IDE Controller  
Primary and Secondary channels for interfacing up to four devices  
IBM-AT compatible  
Supports PIO and Bus Master IDE  
"Ultra ATA/33/66/100" Synchronous DMA Operation  
Bus Master IDE transfers up to 100 MB/sec.  
Individual software control for each IDE channel  
6.2 Disk Drive Support  
The cPB-4612 supports internal and external IDE devices. These configurations are described below.  
6.2.1 Primary IDE Channel  
The cPB-4612’s primary IDE channel is directed to the J14 IDE connector. J14 is used to interface with  
the locally mounted hard drive.  
6.2.2 Secondary IDE Channel  
The cPB-4612’s Secondary IDE channel is directed via the J5 rear-panel I/O connector to a compatible  
rear panel I/O board. Rear Panel I/O boards, such as the cRT-4612, can be installed in-line behind the  
cPB-4612 to provide expanded I/O capability. Refer to the DTI PlexSys cRT-4612 Packet Switched Rear-  
Panel Transition Board Hardware Manual for product information.  
6.3 IDE I/O Mapping  
The I/O map for the IDE interface varies depending on the mode of operation. The default mode is  
"compatibility mode," meaning that the interface uses the PC-AT legacy addresses of 1F0h-1F7h, with  
3F6h and interrupt IRQ14 for the primary channel. The secondary channel uses I/O addresses 170h-  
177h, 376h and interrupt IRQ15. No memory addresses are used.  
6.4 IDE Device Drivers  
The IDE interface works with all applications by default. To fully utilize the IDE interface, additional  
software drivers need to be installed. Contact the vendor of your intended operating system to receive  
the latest drivers

7 Watchdog Timer  
This chapter explains the operation of the cPB-4612’s watchdog timer. It provides an overview of  
watchdog operation and features, as well as sample code to help you learn how the watchdog timer  
works with applications.  
32  
7.1 Watchdog Timer Overview  
The watchdog timer is implemented by using the 6300ESB ICH integrated watchdog timer. The primary  
function of the watchdog timer is to monitor the cPB-4612’s operation and take corrective action if the  
software fails to function as programmed. The major features of the watchdog timer are:  
Two-stage operation (meaning that it can be enabled to produce a system management interrupt  
[SMI] or an IRQ (APIC 1, INT 10) before it generates a reset)  
Enabled and disabled through software control  
Armed and strobed through software control  
The watchdog timer drives the First and Second Stages as follows:  
1. The watchdog times out (First Stage) after a selected timeout interval.  
2. SMI or IRQ is driven high.  
3. A hard reset occurs (Second Stage) after a selected timeout interval.  
The watchdog timer can have a range from 1µs to 10 minutes. The timer uses a 35 bit down counter. The  
counter is loaded with the first preload register. The timer is then enabled and it starts counting down.  
This is called the first stage. If the counter reaches zero before being reloaded, the watchdog timer  
generates an internal interrupt. The counter is then loaded with the second preload register and starts  
counting down. This is called the second stage. If the counter reaches zero before being reloaded, the  
watchdog timer drives the WDT_TOUT pin low until the system is reset.  
More information can be obtained from the Intel 6300ESB Datasheet. The "Intel 855GME Chipset" topic  
in Appendix D provides a link to the 6300ESB datasheet.  
7.2 PCI Configuration Registers  
The two stage watchdog timer controller appears in PCI config space at Bus:0 Dev:29 Func:4. The  
following registers are the primary PCI registers to control the watchdog timer.

7.4 Using the Watchdog in an Application  
The following topics are provided to aid you in learning to use watchdog in an application.  
7.4.1 WDT Unlocking and Programming Sequence  
Unlocking and programming the WDT Memory Mapped registers involves the following sequence:  
1. Write “80” to the Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
2. Write “86” to the Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
3. Write to desired memory mapped register (offset BAR + 0Xh)  
7.4.2 Watchdog Reset  
An application using the reset feature sets the preload values, enables the watchdog reset, and then  
periodically reloads the watchdog to keep it from resetting the system. If a reload is missed, the  
watchdog times out and resets the system hardware.  
7.4.2.1 Load Preload Values  
The following is an algorithm for loading the preload values :  
1. If the value desired falls between 1ms and 10min, clear bit 2 WDT_PRE_SEL of the WDT  
Configuration Register. Else if the value desired falls between 1µs and 1sec set bit 2 of  
the WDT Configuration Register.  
2. Write “80” to the memory mapped Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
3. Write “86” to the memory mapped Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
4. Write desired value to the memory mapped Preload Value 1 register (offset BAR + 00h)  
5. Write “80” to the memory mapped Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
6. Write “86” to the memory mapped Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
7. Write desired value to the memory mapped Preload Value 2 register (offset BAR + 04h)  
7.4.2.2 Enabling the Watchdog Reset  
To enable the watchdog do the following  
1. Set bit 1 of the WDT Lock Register to ‘1’ to enable the watchdog timer.  
7.4.2.3 Reloading the Watchdog  
Once the watchdog is enabled, it must be periodically reloaded within the terminal count period to avoid  
resetting the system hardware. This should be done by the following:  
1. Write “80” to the memory mapped Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
2. Write “86” to the memory mapped Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)  
3. Write ‘1’ to bit 8 WDT_RELOAD in the Reload Register (offset BAR + 0Ch)

8 System BIOS  
The embedded BIOS on the cPB-4612 is implemented as firmware that resides in the on-board flash  
read-only memory (ROM). The BIOS contains standard PC-compatible basic input/output (I/O) services  
and several DTI specific functions and features.  
Support for applicable SBC peripheral devices (SCSI, NIC, video adapters, etc.), that are also loaded into  
the SBC flash ROM, will not be specified in this document. Hooks are provided to support adding BIOS  
code for these adapters.  
38  
8.1  
BIOS Upgrade and Recovery  
To reprogram the BIOS or update it if it becomes corrupted, use the DTIFLASH.EXE utility available from  
DTI and discussed later in this chapter.  
8.1.1 Flash Utility Program  
DTIFLASH.EXE is a utility program that can be obtained from DTI in the event a BIOS should be updated.  
Run DTIFLASH.EXE to modify the BIOS in the on-board flash memory. DTIFLASH.EXE eliminates the  
need for a PROM programmer and for removing boards and chips from the system.  
To reprogram the BIOS , you should do the following:  
1) The latest flash will be distributed via a Customer Service Alert Notification. Normally, the BIOS  
zip file also contains the DTIFLASH.exe utility you need.  
2) Create a DOS 6.2 boot disk and add the BIOS file and flash utility to the disk. Usually other  
Windows* boot disks will work fine as well, but use DOS if you run into any problems.  
3) Boot the board from the DOS boot disk you just created. You can do this via a USB Floppy. If  
your system does not boot off the floppy you may need to enter the BIOS setup in order to move  
the floppy to the first item in the boot order.  
4) Use the following syntax at a DOS prompt:  
DTIFLASH  
The BIOS zip file should also contain a Readme file or installation file to help guide you through BIOS  
installation.  
8.1.2 BIOS Recovery  
In the event that the contents of the BIOS ROM are corrupted, there is a mechanism to recover the BIOS  
Rom using the BIOS bootblock code.  
To reprogram corrupted BIOS, you should do the following:  
1) The latest flash will be distributed via a Customer Service Alert Notification.  
2) Format a disk and copy only the BIOS ROM file to the disk.  
3) Power on the board with the disk installed.  
4) Press CTRL+HOME keys during power on. The board will enter automatic update mode and  
program the file from the disk. There will be no video displayed, but activity should be seen on  
the disk and the POST LEDs.  
5) The board will automatically reboot after complete.  
8.2 BIOS Configuration Overview  
This topic presents a brief introduction to the DTI Embedded BIOS.  
The DTI BIOS Software supports all of the IBM /AT standard functions and several functions and  
features. Features of the DTI BIOS include built-in utilities, help windows, and system monitoring  
functions.  
Upon initial power up or after a hardware reset, the processor begins executing code out of the onboard  
BIOS. The BIOS contains all of the software needed to boot the board to a working state so an  
operating system can be loaded. The first order of business for the BIOS is to initialize crucial system  
components, such as timers and chipset parts. The BIOS then performs basic components checks to  
ensure their presence and then sets them to a default state. Next, the cache and memory controllers  
must be initialized and configured for the type and configuration of the cache and memory found in the  
system.  
39  
Once the memory is present, the compressed portions of the BIOS are de-compressed into the shadow  
memory occupying the standard BIOS memory ranges. The BIOS can now scan for and initialize other  
interfaces such as I/O devices and items on the PCI or ISA busses.  
If a video adapter is in the system it is located and initialized. The video adapter will sign-on and its  
manufacturer, chip type, and creation date will appear on the screen. The BIOS will then display its sign-  
on information giving copyright information, the board name, and the version of the BIOS present in the  
system. At this point the following message will appear at the bottom of the screen giving the hotkey that  
will invoke the setup engine.  
<F2> Enter Setup <SPACE> Skip Memory <ESC> BOOT Menu  
If the F2 key is pressed, the message below will be displayed and the ROM UTILITIES will be entered  
after the option ROM scan.  
Entering Setup…..  
The BIOS now starts to size and clear all system memory, displaying its progress on the screen. The  
BIOS will then sign-on any ISA or PCI option ROMs found on devices in the system. If the F2 key was  
pressed during POST; the ROM Utilities will be executed.  
8.2.1 Boot Menu  
During POST display, the ESC key can be pressed to invoke the multi-boot menu. The menu will appear  
near the end of POST, before the system summary screen is displayed, and after the option ROMs have  
signed on. The multi-boot menu allows interactive selection of the boot device. The list is typically in the  
following categorical order:  
Please select boot device:  
IBA FE Slot 0128 v4110 __  
IBA GE Slot 0229 v1216  
IBA GE Slot 0228 v1216  
and to move selection  
ENTER to select boot device  
ESC to boot using defaults  
The up and down arrows on the keyboard can be used to highlight the device to boot from, and then  
press <Enter> to boot from it. Removable devices are the floppy drive, or other installed removable  
media, e.g., ZIP drives. Hard drives are any fixed disk (IDE, SCSI) in the system. Other devices may  
appear in the list, such as Ethernet boot ROM agents from add-in cards. To change the boot order of  
40  
devices within a category (such as to boot from IDE hard drive instead of SCSI), or to permanently  
change the boot order, you will have to enter SETUP and change the boot options.  
If any errors are detected up to this point they will now be displayed on the screen along with the following  
prompt to direct further actions. Pressing F1 will ignore the errors and continue with the boot process.  
The F2 key can be pressed to enter the ROM UTILITIES and possibly resolve any configuration error that  
may have been made.  
Press F2 to Run SETUP  
Press F1 to load default values and continue  
If the F2 key was not pressed, and no errors were detected, the system summary screen will be  
displayed. After 10 seconds or upon a key press the BIOS will attempt to boot the installed operating  
system.  
The System BIOS is compatible with the Plug and Play Specification Version 1.0A. The two areas that  
are addressed by the System BIOS are Resource Management and Runtime Services.  
Resource Management provides the ability to manage the fundamental system resources, which include  
DMA, Interrupt Request Lines (IRQs), I/O and Memory addresses. These resources, termed system  
resources, are in high demand and commonly are over allocated or allocated in a conflicting manner in  
ISA systems, leading to system configuration failures.  
The resource manager takes on the responsibility for configuring Plug and Play cards, as well as system  
board devices during the power up phase. After the Power-On Self Test (POST) process is complete,  
control of the Plug and Play device configuration passes from the system BIOS to the system software.  
The BIOS does, however, provide configuration services for system board devices even after the POST  
process is complete. These services are known as Runtime Services.  
Runtime Services provide a mechanism whereby a Plug and Play operating system, such as Windows  
2000, may perform resource allocation dynamically at runtime. The operating system may directly  
manipulate the configuration of devices that have traditionally been considered static.  
8.2.2 ROM Utilities  
The ROM Utilities consist of various easy-to-use utilities required in the configuration of the board. The  
function of each utility is briefly described below. Battery backed CMOS RAM is used to store the  
configuration/setup parameters selected in the ROM Utilities. On power-up the CMOS RAM parameters  
are used to configure the system. If the CMOS RAM is corrupt, default parameters stored in ROM are  
used to configure the system. If no errors occurred during the POST, the System Configuration Summary

8.3 Plug and Play (PnP)  
The system BIOS supports the following industry standards for making the system “Plug and Play ready”  
such as ACPI, PCI local bus specification rev 2.1 and SMBIOS 1.  
8.3.1 Resource Allocation  
The system BIOS identifies, allocates, and initializes resources in a manner consistent with industry  
standards. The BIOS scans, in order, for the following:  
ISA devices: Add-in ISA devices are not supported on this platform. However, some standard  
PC peripherals may require ISA-style resources – resources for these devices will be reserved as  
needed.  
Add-in video graphics adapter (VGA) devices: If found, the BIOS initializes and allocates resources to  
these devices.  
PCI Devices: The BIOS allocates resources according to the parameters set up by the SSU and as  
required by the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1.  
The system BIOS Power-on Self Test (POST) guarantees that there are no resource conflicts prior to  
booting the system. Please note that PCI device drivers are required to support the sharing of IRQs.  
Sharing IRQs should not be considered a resource conflict. Note that only four legacy IRQs are available  
for use by PCI devices; as a result, most of the PCI devices share legacy IRQ’s. In SMP mode, the I/O  
APICs are used instead of the legacy “8259-style” interrupt controller. There is very little interrupt sharing  
in SMP mode.  
8.3.2 PnP ISA Auto-configuration  
The system BIOS:  
A Supports relevant portions of the Plug and Play ISA Specification, Revision 1.0a and the Plug and  
Play BIOS Specification, Revision 1.0A.  
B Assigns I/O, memory, direct memory access (DMA) channels, and IRQs from the system  
resource pool to the embedded PnP Super I/O device.  
C Does not support add-in PnP ISA devices.  
8.3.3 PCI Auto-configuration  
The system BIOS supports the INT 1Ah, AH = B1h functions, in conformance with the PCI Local Bus  
Specification, Revision 2.1. The system BIOS also supports the 16 and 32-bit protected mode interfaces  
as required by the PCI BIOS Specification, Revision 2.1.  
Beginning at the lowest device, the BIOS uses a “depth-first” scan algorithm to enumerate the PCI buses.  
Each time a bridge device is located, the bus number is incremented and scanning continues on the  
secondary side of the bridge before all devices are scanned on the current bus. The BIOS then scans for  
PCI devices using a “breadth-first” search – all devices on a given bus are scanned from lowest to highest  
before the next bus number is scanned.  
System BIOS POST maps each device into memory and/or I/O space, and assigns IRQ channels as  
required. The BIOS programs the PCI-ISA interrupt routing logic in the chipset hardware to steer PCI  
interrupts to compatible ISA IRQs.  
The BIOS dispatches any option ROM code for PCI devices to the DOS compatibility hole (C0000h to  
DFFFFh) and transfers control to the entry point. The DOS compatibility hole is a limited resource;  
therefore, system configurations with a large number of PCI devices may result in a shortage of this  
resource. If the BIOS runs out of option ROM space, some PCI option ROMs are not executed and a  
POST error is generated. Scanning PCI option ROMs may be controlled on a slot by slot basis in the  
BIOS setup.  
60  
Drivers and/or the OS can detect the installed devices and determine resource consumption using the  
defined PCI, legacy PnP BIOS, and/or ACPI BIOS interface functions.  
8.3.4 Legacy ISA Configuration  
Legacy ISA add-in devices are not supported by these platforms.  
8.3.5 Automatic Detection of Video Adapters  
The BIOS detects video adapters in the following order:  
Offboard PCI  
Onboard PCI  
The onboard (or offboard) video BIOS is shadowed, starting at address C0000h, and is initialized before  
memory tests begin in POST. Precedence is always given to offboard devices.  
8.4 Console Redirection  
Console redirection allows users to monitor the cPB-4612’s boot process and to run the cPB-4612’s  
Setup utility from a remote serial terminal. Connection is made either directly through a serial port or  
through a modem.  
The console redirection feature is most useful in cases where it is necessary to communicate with a  
processor board, such as the cPB-4612, in an embedded application without video support.  
The BIOS supports redirection of both video and keyboard via a serial link (COM 1 or COM 2). When  
console redirection is enabled in BIOS setup, local (host server) keyboard input and video output are  
passed both to the local keyboard and video connections, and to the remote console via the serial link.  
Keyboard inputs from both sources are considered valid and video is displayed to both outputs.  
Optionally, the system can be operated without a host keyboard or monitor attached to the system and  
run entirely via the remote console. Setup and any other text-based utilities can be accessed via console  
redirection.  
8.5 System Management BIOS (SMBIOS)  
The cPB-4612 follows the criteria outlined in the System Management BIOS Reference Specification,  
Version 2.3. Refer to this specification for details on SMBIOS.  
8.6 POST CODE LEDS  
Four surface-mounted LEDS are located on cPB-4612 that indicate the post/board status. The LEDS are  
arranged from the most significant bit (MSB) to the least significant bit (LSB), and a color scheme is used  
to identify the bit values. For instance, the LED will be lit RED when one of the upper four bits is high and  
will be lit GREEN when one of the lower bits is high. The upper and lower bits will be represented  
simultaneously by the LEDS. Thus, the LED will appear ORANGE if one of the upper and lower bits is  
both high in the same bit location. These eight bits represent a binary number, and if that binary number  
is converted into a hexadecimal number you’ll have the failing code if the board fails to boot. An example  
illustrating this is provided below.  
LED Color Description

TROUBLE SHOOTING HINT  
Check the CPU to see if it is fully seated in its socket.  
Check the memory module to see if it is fully seated and that it is not inserted at an  
angle. The board may stay at post code 60 for a long time depending on the  
memory size; attach a monitor and confirm the board continues to count memory.

If BIOS has been recently flashed or changed out, check to see if it is fully seated  
in the BIOS socket or if a wrong size device has been used.  
Board has attempted to load OS. Ensure OS is properly installed on boot media.  
If the OS is successfully loaded, this code may remain; however, differing  
Operating Systems may map the LED port for floppy access, and C0 will be  
overwritten with random codes. This occurrence is normal, and floppy functionality  
will not be affected.

Appendix  
C
C Thermal Considerations  
This appendix describes the thermal requirements for reliable operation of a cPB-4612 using the Mobile  
Pentium 4 processor - M. It covers basic thermal requirements and provides specifics about monitoring  
the board and processor temperature.  
84  
C.1 Thermal Requirements  
The cPB-4612 is equipped with an integrated heatsink for cooling the processor module. The maximum  
processor core temperature must not exceed 100°C. The heatsink allows a maximum ambient air  
temperature of 50°C with 200 linear feet per minute (LFM) of airflow. The maximum power dissipation of  
the CPU is 25 W at 1.2 GHz and 1.20V.  
CAUTION: External airflow must be provided at all times during operation to avoid damaging  
the CPU. DTI strongly recommends the use of a fan tray below the card rack to supply the  
external airflow.  
The "Thermal Requirements" table below shows the relationship between ambient air temperature, board  
temperature, and processor core temperature.

C.2 Temperature Monitoring  
Because reliable long-term operation of the cPB-4612 depends on maintaining proper temperature, DTI  
strongly recommends verifying the operating temperature of the processor module and processor core in  
the final system configuration.  
The Pentium 4 processor incorporates an on-die thermal diode that can be used to monitor the  
processor's die temperature. The cPB-4612 includes an ADM 1026 Hardware Monitor to check the die  
temperature of the processor for thermal management purposes.  
85  
When checking airflow conditions, let the Processor Core Temperature Test dwell for at least 30 minutes  
and verify that the core temperature does not exceed 65°C. The processor "core" temperature must  
never exceed 100°C under any condition of ambient temperature or usage.  
WARNING: Temperatures over 100°C may result in permanent damage to the  
processor.  
Refer to the "Thermal Requirements" table for more information.
