NOTE: The protective tape on top of the Crown Beach LVDS connector must be removed prior  
to installing an LVDS cable.  
NOTE: VGA output is not directly supported. Customers can use PCI Express*-based discrete,  
external 3D graphics cards, or a third-party component available on an ADD2N card  
using the SDVO interface.  
2.5.4  
PCI Express* Slots  
Two PCI Express* slots x1 for add-in cards.  
The PCI Express* bus complies with the PCI Express* Rev. 1.0a specification.  
Crown Beach provides two PCI Express* Mini Card form factor slots. The PCI Express*  
specification pin-out is followed by Mini Card Slot A only and not by Mini Card Slot B.  
Mini Card Slot A is enabled by default and to enable Mini Card Slot B, rework needs to  
be performed. The slots are not to be used with PCI Express* Mini Card-based  
devices. Mini Card A (J7H1) is designed for use with CM100/CM101 cards from  
Quanta. Mini Card A can be populated with the Kedron, Echo Peak, or Shirley Peak  
wireless cards. Mini Card B (J2G1) is designed for use with Wireless WAN cards from  
Sierra Wireless* and Option*.  
2.5.5

2.5.6  
2.5.7  
PATA Storage  
The Crown Beach Board provides only one desktop, 40-pin, PATA66/100 connector  
that supports master and slave devices.  
USB Connectors  
The Intel® SCH provides eight USB 2.0 ports.  
Four ports are routed to the back panel’s two stacked USB connectors. USB ports  
[1:0] and [4:3] are routed to the back of the chassis.  
Port 2 is the client-mode connector and is routed to the back of the chassis with a  
Mini-B connector.  
Ports [7:5] are routed to the front panel headers (USB FPIO, Duck Bay, and  
Sideband Header) and to the Sideband headers (Duck Bay, Upham USB).  
For wireless solutions port 0 is also used with stuffing options for the PCI Express*  
Mini Card. OC [7:0] # is available for over-current detection.  
Port 5 is disabled by default due to enabling of PCI Express* Mini Card A Slot.  
Note: USB port 0 functionality is impacted if rework is performed to enable the PCI Express*  
Mini Card B Slot.  
2.5.8  
LPC Slot  
The H8S/2117 serves as a keyboard controller on the customer reference board.  
Note: Other solutions, such as a mouse controller, can be tested in the LPC slot while H8S is  
held in reset.  
LPC slot and sideband header are supported.  
Docking and DMA are not supported by the Intel® SCH on Crown Beach.  
Port 80-83 is implemented using the EPM7064AE device down on the motherboard  
with 4, seven-segment displays on the LPC bus.  
An option for connecting the cable to front panel or chassis is available.

A TSOP socket houses the flash device (ST Microelectronics P/N# M50FW080) that  
stores the system EFI firmware. The EFI firmware can be programmed through a  
Microsoft MS-DOS* or Windows*-based utility.  
Trusted Platform Module (TPM) Header  
Crown Beach implements a header at J9B4 to support TPM 1.2 specification compliant  
devices. The same header can be used for legacy connections, allowing other SIO  
solutions to provide floppy, COM, Parallel, and PS/2 functionality.  
SD/SDIO/MMC  
Crown Beach provides three ports with the following features:  
All ports are SD rev1.1 specification compliant and MMC rev4.0 specification  
compliant.  
All ports operate to 48 MHz. Ports 0 and 1 support 4-bit operation. Port 2 supports  
8-bit operation.  
Slot 2 is also routed (with stuffing options) to the PCI Express* Mini Card for  
wireless solutions.  
2.5.13  
2.5.14  
Clocks  
The Crown Beach CRB uses a CK-540 clock solution. The BSEL [2:1] signals driven by  
the processor are used by the CK-540 to configure the FSB frequency.  
Real Time Clock  
An on-board battery maintains power to the real time clock (RTC) when in a  
mechanical off state (G3 state).

In-Target Probe (ITP) and Debug Support  
Crown Beach provides on-board ITP support with an XDP connector. Users can debug  
from the reset vector without EFI or OS dependency (up to OS functionality). Ports  
80-83 are provided as a troubleshooting tool to monitor POST output during EFI  
execution.  
Note: ITP requires that the CMC load to configure Poulsbo before register accesses can be  
made. The CMC code resides in the FWH on Crown Beach. Thus, it is required that the  
FWH flash be programmed and inserted in the FWH socket to use ITP.  
Note: Crown Beach does not support ITP 700.  
2.5.16  
Power Supply Solution  
Crown Beach can be powered from an ATX power supply (desktop solution) that  
contains all of the voltage regulators necessary to power the system up. Additionally,  
virtual battery support is provided through switch SW8A1.  
Note: Use an “ATX12V” 1.1 specification compliant power supply regardless of supplier or  
wattage level (an "ATX12V" rating means V5 min current =0.1 A, "ATX" V5 min  
current = 1.0 A, among other differences). For example, the Sparkle Model No.  
FSP300-60BTV meets this requirement and is an ATX12V 1.1 spec compliant power  
supply. Depending on the power supply used, Crown Beach may require a load. Crown  
Beach provides FETS to assist with this loading through jumpers J4J1 and J5J2, see  
Table 9 for jumper settings.  
Note: If the power switch on the ATX power supply is used to shut down the system, wait at  
least 5 seconds before turning the system on again.  
Note: The recommended way to shut down the board is to press and hold the power button  
switch (SW3J1) for 5 seconds until the power supply turns off. Using the power supply  
switch or pulling the plug out of the wall is not recommended.  
2.5.17  
Board Size  
The reference board form factor is similar to the µATX 9.6 x 10.4 inch (243.84 x  
264.16 mm) specification. The back panel jacks may not conform to ATX  
specifications.  
2.5.18  
Board Technology  
The Crown Beach reference board uses fine pitched BGA packages, down to  
0.0024 inch (0.6 mm) pitch. Type IV high density-interconnect technology is required  
for breakout purposes and implemented using a 1-6-1 stack-up (8 layers total).

P =  
R = value of the sense resistor (typically 0.01 )  
V = the voltage difference measured across the sense resistor.  
Use a high precision digital multi-meter tool such as the Agilent 34401A digital multi-  
meter. Refer to Table 6 for a comparison of a high-precision, digital multi-meter  
(Agilent 34401A) versus a precision, digital multi-meter (Fluke 79).

NOTES:  
1.  
A jumper consists of two or more pins mounted on the motherboard. When a jumper  
cap is placed over two pins, it is designated as IN. When there are more than two pins  
on the jumper, the pins to be shorted are indicated as 1–2 (to short pin 1 to pin 2), 2–  
3 (to short pin 2 to pin 3), etc. When no jumper cap is to be placed on the jumper, it is  
designated as OUT.  
2.  
3.  
When a switch is designated as 1–2, the switch slide is positioned such that pins 1 and  
2 are shorted together.  
H8 Jumper programming procedure is shown in Section 4.9.

Manual VID Support for CPU  
The Crown Beach supports manual VID operation for the processor VR. A header  
(J1B1) is provided to incorporate “VID override”. VID override allows for overriding  
the CPU VID outputs to the CPU VCC_CORE VR. The intent of the “VID override”  
circuit is to enable debugging and testing. See Appendix B for the VID code table.  
Note: When manually overriding the VID outputs, an open jumper position will result in logic  
‘1’ on the corresponding VID signal. Closing the jumper position will result in logic ‘0’  
on the corresponding VID signal.

Jumper Settings  
The Mott Canyon 4 Interposer card can select either Primary or Secondary Intel® HD  
Audio functionality for MDC0 and MDC1 connectors with two jumper options, J16 and  
J25.  
In Intel® HD Audio mode, MDC0 is designed to house the primary codec (usually  
audio but could be modem if there is no audio) and if necessary, MDC1 is designed to  
house the modem codec. MDC2 supports an Intel® HD Audio modem-only codec.  
The Intel® SCH supports up to two SDATA_IN channels (0, 1). Two jumpers, J27 and  
J28 are used to select the appropriate SDATA_IN channels for each of the MDCs. Be  
aware that SDATA_IN channels 1 and 2 can be also overridden through jumpers on  
the evaluation platform. If either SDATA_IN1 or SDATA_IN2 are not shunted properly  
on the evaluation platform, these lines are not available to the Mott Canyon 4  
Interposer card. Proper operation of the Intel® HD Audio interface requires that only  
one SDATA_IN line is routed to one codec at a time.
