2.5 Setting Jumpers  
You may configure your card to match the needs of your application by  
setting jumpers. A jumper is a metal bridge used to close an electric cir-  
cuit. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected  
by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a  
jumper, you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper, you  
remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2  
and 3. In this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2, or 2 and 3.  
open  
closed  
closed 2-3  
The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:.  
open  
closed  
closed 2-3  
A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers.  
If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your  
application, contact your local distributor or sales representative before  
you make any changes. Generally, you simply need a standard cable to  
make most connections.

2.9 Installing SODIMMs  
Notes  
The modules can only fit into a socket one way.  
The gold pins must point down into the  
SODIMM socket.  
The procedure for installing SODIMMs appears below. Please follow  
these steps carefully.  
1. Make sure that all power supplies to the system are switched off  
2. Install the SODIMM card. Install the SODIMM so that its gold pins  
point down into the SODIMM socket.  
3. Slip the SODIMM into the socket at a 45 degree angle and care-  
fully fit the bottom of the card against the connectors.  
4. Gently push the SODIMM into a perpendicular position until the  
clips on the ends of the SODIMM sockets snap into place.  
5. Check to ensure that the SODIMM is correctly seated and all con-  
nector contacts touch. The SODIMM should not move around in its  
socket.  
2.10 ATX power Connector (CN5)  
The PCA-6780 supports ATX power. CN5 supplies main power (+5 V ,  
+12 V , 5 VSB), and it is a 6 x 2 pins power connector, w/Fixed Lock  
4200-WS-A1.  
Important  
Make sure that the ATX power supply can take  
at least a 10 mA load on the 5 V standby lead  
(5 VSB). If not, you may have difficulty power-  
ing on your system.

2.11 Printer port Connector (CN4)  
Normally, the printer port is used to connect the card to a printer. The  
PCA-6780 includes a multi-mode (SPP/EPP/ECP) printer port accessed  
via CN4 and a 26-pin flat-cable connector. You will need an adapter cable  
if you use a traditional DB-25 connector. The adapter cable has a 26-pin  
connector on one end, and a DB-25 connector on the other.  
The printer port is designated as LPT1, and can be disabled or changed to  
LPT2 or LPT3 in the system BIOS setup.  
The printer port interrupt channel is designated to be IRQ7.  
You can select ECP/EPP DMA channel via BIOS setup.  
2.12 CompactFlash Socket  
The PCA-6780 provides a 50-pin socket for CompactFlash card type I/II.  
2.12.1 CompactFlash (CN22)  
The CompactFlash card occupies a secondary IDE channel which can be  
enabled/disabled via the BIOS settings.

2.13 Floppy Connector (CN3)  
You can attach up to two floppy drives to the PCA-6780’s on-board con-  
troller. You can use any combination of 5.25” (360 KB and 1.2 MB) and/  
or 3.5” (720 KB, 1.44 MB, and 2.88 MB) drives.  
A 34-pin daisy-chain drive connector cable is required for a dual-drive  
system. On one end of the cable is a 34-pin flat-cable connector. On the  
other end are two sets of floppy disk drive connectors. Each set consists  
of a 34-pin flat-cable connector (usually used for 3.5” drives) and a  
printed-circuit board connector (usually used for 5.25” drives).  
2.13.1 Connecting the floppy drive  
1.  
Plug the 34-pin flat-cable connector into CN3. Make sure that the  
red wire corresponds to pin one on the connector.  
2.  
Attach the appropriate connector on the other end of the cable to  
the floppy drive(s). You can use only one connector in the set. The  
set on the end (after the twist in the cable) connects to the A: drive.  
The set in the middle connects to the B: drive.  
3.  
If you are connecting a 5.25” floppy drive, line up the slot in the  
printed circuit board with the blocked-off part of the cable connec-  
tor.  
If you are connecting a 3.5” floppy drive, you may have trouble determin-  
ing which pin is number one. Look for a number printed on the circuit  
board indicating pin number one. In addition, the connector on the floppy  
drive may have a slot. When the slot is up, pin number one should be on  
the right. Check the documentation that came with the drive for more  
information.  
If you desire, connect the B: drive to the connectors in the middle of the  
cable as described above.  
In case you need to make your own cable, you can find the pin assign-  
ments for the board’s connector in Appendix B.

2.14 IDE Connector (CN2)  
The PCA-6780 provides one IDE channels to which you can attach up to  
two Enhanced Integrated Device Electronics hard disk drives or CDROM  
to the PCA-6780’s internal controller. The PCA-6780's IDE controller  
uses a PCI interface. This advanced IDE controller supports faster data  
transfer, PIO Mode 3 or Mode 4, UDMA 33/66/100 mode.  
2.14.1 Connecting the hard drive  
Connecting drives is done in a daisy-chain fashion. It requires one of two  
cables (not included in this package), depending on the drive size. 1.8"  
and 2.5" drives need a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 44-pin flat-cable connector. 3.5"  
drives use a 1 x 44-pin to 2 x 40-pin connector.  
Wire number 1 on the cable is red or blue, and the other wires are gray.  
1.  
Connect one end of the cable to CN2. Make sure that the red (or  
blue) wire corresponds to pin 1 on the connector, which is labeled  
on the board (on the right side).  
2.  
Plug the other end of the cable into the Enhanced IDE hard drive,  
with pin 1 on the cable corresponding to pin 1 on the hard drive.  
(See your hard drive’s documentation for the location of the con-  
nector.)  
If desired, connect a second drive as described above.  
Unlike floppy drives, IDE hard drives can connect to either end of the  
cable. If you install two drives, you will need to set one as the master and  
one as the slave by using jumpers on the drives. If you install only one  
drive, set it as the master.

2.19 COM port Connector (CN14,CN15)  
The PCA-6780 provides two COM ports (COM1: RS-232 and COM2:  
RS-232/422/485). CN14 supports COM1, CN15 supports COM2. And J2  
is for COM2 RS-232/422/485 selection. It provides connections for serial  
devices (a mouse, etc.) or a communication network. You can find the pin  
assignments for the COM port connector in Appendix B.  
2.20 MINI Keyboard Connector (CN17)  
The PCA-6780 board provides a keyboard connector that supports both a  
keyboard and a PS/2 style mouse. In most cases, especially in embedded  
applications, a keyboard is not used. If the keyboard is not present, the  
standard PC/AT BIOS will report an error or fail during power-on self-  
test (POST) after a reset. The PCA-6780’s BIOS standard setup menu  
allows you to select "All, But Keyboard"under the "Halt On"selection.  
This allows no-keyboard operation in embedded system applications,  
without the system halting under POST.  
2.21 External Keyboard Connector (CN18)  
In addition to the Mini keyboard connector on the PCA-6780’s rear plate,  
there is an additional onboard external keyboard connector, allowing for  
greater flexibility in system design.

Appendix A Programming GPIO &  
Watchdog Timer  
A.1 Supported GPIO Register  
Below are detailed description of the GPIO addresses and programming  
sample.  
A.1.1 GPIO Registers  
CRF0 (GP10-GP17 I/O selection register. Default 0xFF)  
When set to a '1', respective GPIO port is programmed as an input port.  
When set to a '0', respective GPIO port is programmed as an output port.  
CRF1 (GP10-GP17 data register. Default 0x00)  
If a port is programmed to be an output port, then its respective bit can be  
read/written.  
If a port is programmed to be an input port, then its respective bit can  
only be read.  
CRF2 (GP10-GP17 inversion register. Default 0x00)  
When set to a '1', the incoming/outgoing port value is inverted.  
When set to a '0', the incoming/outgoing port value is the same as in data  
register.  
Extended Function Index Registers (EFIRs)  
The EFIRs are write-only registers with port address 2Eh or 4Eh on PC/  
AT systems.  
Extended Function Data Registers (EFDRs)  
the EFDRs are read/write registers with port address 2Fh or 4Fh on PC/  
AT systems.
