Safety Summary  
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair  
of this equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual  
could result in personal injury or damage to the equipment.  
The safety precautions listed below represent warnings of certain dangers of which Motorola is aware. You,  
as the user of the product, should follow these warnings and all other safety precautions necessary for the  
safe operation of the equipment in your operating environment.  
Ground the Instrument.  
To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and enclosure must be connected to an electrical ground.  
If the equipment is supplied with a three-conductor AC power cable, the power cable must be plugged into  
an approved three-contact electrical outlet, with the grounding wire (green/yellow) reliably connected to an  
electrical ground (safety ground) at the power outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the power cable meet  
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards and local electrical regulatory codes.  
Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.  
Do not operate the equipment in any explosive atmosphere such as in the presence of flammable gases or  
fumes. Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment could result in an explosion and cause  
injury or damage.  
Keep Away From Live Circuits Inside the Equipment.  
Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other  
qualified service personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly or component  
replacement or any internal adjustment. Service personnel should not replace components with power cable  
connected. Under certain conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To  
avoid injuries, such personnel should always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching  
components.  
Use Caution When Exposing or Handling a CRT.  
Breakage of a Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT) causes a high-velocity scattering of glass fragments (implosion). To  
prevent CRT implosion, do not handle the CRT and avoid rough handling or jarring of the equipment.  
Handling of a CRT should be done only by qualified service personnel using approved safety mask and  
gloves.  
Do Not Substitute Parts or Modify Equipment.  
Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification of the equipment. Contact your local  
Motorola representative for service and repair to ensure that all safety features are maintained.  
Observe Warnings in Manual.  
Warnings, such as the example below, precede potentially dangerous procedures throughout this manual.  
Instructions contained in the warnings must be followed. You should also employ all other safety precautions  
which you deem necessary for the operation of the equipment in your operating environment.

Chapter 1 ATCA-C110/1G Baseboard Preparation and Installation  
Caution  
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage circuits.  
Caution  
ESD  
Motorola strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive  
foam pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic components, such as disk  
drives, computer boards, and memory modules, can be extremely sensitive to  
electrostatic discharge (ESD). After removing the component from its protective  
wrapper or from the system, place the component flat on a grounded, static-free  
surface (and, in the case of a board, component side up). Do not slide the component  
over any surface.  
Use ESD  
Wrist Strap  
If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from ESD by wearing  
an antistatic wrist strap (available at electronics stores) that is attached to an active  
electrical ground. Note that a system chassis may not be grounded if it is unplugged.  
Warning  
Dangerous voltages, capable of causing death, are present in this equipment. Use  
extreme caution when handling, testing, and adjusting.  
Warning  
Hardware Configuration  
This section discusses certain hardware and software tasks that may need to be performed  
prior to installing the blade in a shelf.  
The ATCA-C110/1G board has been factory tested and is shipped with the configurations. It  
contains a factory installed start-up firmware, U-Boot, which operates with those factory  
settings. See Chapter 3, U-Boot Firmware Overview for more details. You can configure most

Observe ESD Precautions  
ESD  
Motorola strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a conductive  
foam pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic components, such as disk  
drives, computer boards, and memory modules, can be extremely sensitive to  
electrostatic discharge (ESD). After removing the component from its protective  
wrapper or from the system, place the component flat on a grounded, static-free  
surface (and, in the case of a board, component side up). Do not slide the component  
over any surface.  
Use ESD  
Wrist Strap  
If an ESD station is not available, you can avoid damage resulting from ESD by wearing  
an antistatic wrist strap (available at electronics stores) that is attached to an active  
electrical ground. Note that a system chassis may not be grounded if it is unplugged.  
Watch for Bent Pins or Other Damage  
Caution  
Bent pins or loose components can cause damage to the blade, the backplane, or  
other system components. Carefully inspect your blade and the backplane for both pin  
and component integrity before installation.  
!
Caution  
Motorola and our suppliers take significant steps to ensure there are no bent pins on the  
backplane or connector damage to the boards prior to leaving our factory. Bent pins caused by  
improper installation or by boards with damaged connectors could void the Motorola warranty  
for the backplane or blades.  
If a system contains one or more crushed pins, power off the system and contact your local  
sales representative to schedule delivery of a replacement chassis assembly.  
Use Caution When Installing or Removing Blades  
When first installing blades in an empty shelf, we recommend that you start at the left of the  
card cage and work to the right when cards are vertically aligned; in horizontally aligned cages,  
work from bottom to top.  
When inserting or removing a board in a slot adjacent to other boards, use extra caution to avoid  
damage to the pins and components located on the top or bottom sides of the blades.  
Preserve EMI Compliance  
Caution  
To preserve compliance with applicable standards and regulations for electromagnetic  
interference (EMI), during operation all front and rear openings on the shelf or blade  
face plates must be filled with an appropriate card or covered with a filler panel. If the  
EMI barrier is open, devices may cause or be susceptible to excessive interference.

Understand Hot Swap  
Caution  
Board/Component Damage  
Inserting or removing non-hot swap cards or transition modules with power applied  
may result in damage to module components. Make sure that your blade manufacturer  
identifies your module as hot swap ready.  
!
Caution  
The PICMG 3.0 Specification defines varying levels of hot swap. A blade that is compliant with  
the specification can be inserted and removed safely with system power on without damage to  
onboard circuitry. If a module is not hot swap compliant, you should remove power to the slot or  
system before inserting or removing the module.  
To facilitate hot swap, PICMG 3.0 specifies a blue LED on the face plate and board handles’  
latch mechanism. This LED is under the control of System Management Firmware (IPMI).  
The IPMI firmware will illuminate the blue hot-swap LED on the face plate, when it has powered  
down the board, thus indicating that it is safe to remove the board.  
ESD  
Corruption of Data or File System  
Powering down or removing a blade before the operating system or other software  
running on the blade has been properly shut down may cause corruption of data or file  
systems.  
!
Caution  
Therefore, ensure that the board has been properly shut down. You should ensure that  
the blue hot swap LED on the faceplate is illuminated before extracting the module.  
Refer to the Management chapter of the PICMG 3.0 Specification for more information about  
hot swap  
Control Elements  
The ATCA-C110/1G provides the following elements as man-machine interface:  
Blue hot-swap LED (see Face plate and LEDs on page 51)  
Injector/Ejector Lever and Hot Swap Switch Mechanism  
The Hot Swap micro-switch is activated by the ATCA-C110/1G board ejector handles’  
mechanism during the board insertion and extraction. This switch is used to confirm insertion  
or to indicate a request for extraction to the IPMC.  
The following illustrations show the typical blade ejector handles used with the ATCA-C110/1G  
payload cards. All handles are compliant with the AdvancedTCA specification and are designed  
to meet the IEEE1101.10 standards. The handles facilitate insertion, locking and extraction of  
the board. It includes the hot-swap micro-switch mounted on the board PCB. The board handles  
are used to activate the micro-switch, which is the Hot Swap Switch, and to extract the board  
by pulling it out of the ATCA slot from the chassis.

U-Boot Firmware Overview  
3
U-Boot is a software package based on an open-source boot loader for embedded systems  
utilizing PowerPC, MIPS, or ARM Processors. U-Boot can be installed in a boot ROM and used  
as a boot loader to download and activate application code.  
For more detail on using U-Boot and a listing of all commands, refer to the ATCA-C110/1G  
U-Boot Installation and Use Manual, listed in Appendix D, Related Documentation.  
System Setup  
Some tools are needed to install and configure U-Boot and Linux on the target system. Also,  
especially during development, you require interaction with the target system. This section  
describes how to configure your host system for this purpose.  
Serial Console Access  
To use U-Boot and Linux as a development system and fully utilize all their capabilities, you  
need access to a serial console port on your target system. Later, U-Boot and Linux can be  
configured to allow automatic execution without any user interaction.  
To access the serial console port on your target system, connect one end of the serial cable to  
serial port (COM5 on the ARTM-C110) and the other end of the serial cable to the host COM  
port.  
Configuring the TFTP Server  
The quickest manner for U-Boot to load a Linux kernel or an application image is through file  
transfer over Ethernet. For this purpose, U-Boot implements the TFTP protocol (see DENX  
U-Boot and Linux Guide which may be obtained online from the  
To enable TFTP support on your host system you must make sure that the TFTP daemon  
program /usr/sbin/in.tftpd is installed. On RedHat systems you can verify this by running:  
$ rpm -q tftp-server  
If necessary, install the TFTP daemon program from your distribution media.  
Most Linux distributions disable the TFTP service by default. To enable the TFTP service, for  
example on RedHat systems, edit the file /etc/xinetd.d/tftp and remove the line  
disable = yes  
or, comment the line by prefixing a hash character. For example:

Also, make sure that the /tftpboot directory exists and is world-readable (permissions at least

Configuring the BOOTP/DHCP Server  
The BOOTP or DHCP Server can be used to automatically pass configuration information to  
the target.  
The target must "know" its own Ethernet hardware (MAC) address. The following command  
checks the availability of DHCP on your host system:  
$ rpm -q dhcp  
If necessary, install the DHCP package from your distribution media.  
You then have to create the DHCP configuration file /etc/dhcpd.conf that matches your  
network setup, for example:  
subnet 10.0.0.0 netmask 255.0.0.0 {  
option routers  
10.0.0.2;  
option subnet-mask  
255.0.0.0;

"atca";  
10.0.0.2;

Chapter 3 U-Boot Firmware Overview  
Using this configuration, the DHCP server will reply to a request from the target with the  
Ethernet address 00:30:BF:01:02:D0, provided the following conditions are satisfied:  
The target is located in the subnet 10.0.0.0 which uses the netmask 255.0.0.0  
The target has the hostname as atca and the IP address 10.0.0.99  
The host with the IP address 10.0.0.2 provides the boot image for the target and provides  
NFS server function when the target mounts its root filesystem over NFS.  
The host provides the file /tftpboot/ATCAC110/uImage as boot image for the target.  
The target can mount the directory /opt/eldk/ppc_82xx on the NFS server as the root  
filesystem.  
Note The host listed with the next-server option can be different from the host that is running  
the DHCP server.  
Configuring an NFS Server  
File sharing over the network, between the host and the target, is a convenient feature in a  
development environment.  
The easiest manner to setup sharing is when the host provides NFS server functionality and  
exports a directory that can be mounted from the target as the root filesystem.  
Assuming NFS server functionality is already provided by your host, the only configuration  
required to be added, is an entry for your target root directory to your /etc/exports file, for  
example:  
/opt/eldk/ppc_82xx  
10.0.0.0/255.0.0.0(rw,no_root_squash,sync)  
The above command exports the /opt/eldk/ppc_82xx directory with read and write  
permissions to all hosts on the 10.0.0.0 subnet.  
After modifying the /etc/exports file ensure that the NFS system is notified about the change,  
for example, by using the following command:  
# /sbin/service nfs restart  
Initialization of the ATCA-C110/1G Board  
To initialize the U-Boot firmware running on the ATCA-C110/1G board, connect the Host COM  
port to the board's serial console port. (COM5 port on the ARTM-C110).  
The default configuration of the console port on the ATCA-C110/1G board uses a baudrate of  
115200/8N1 (115200 bps, 8 Bit per character, no parity, 1 stop bit, no handshake).  
Note Make sure that both hardware and software flow controls are disabled.

supporting 10/100/1000 Mbps MII/GMII interface operation. The TSECs on the ATCA-C110/1G  
implement a Gigabit Ethernet protocol, which builds on top of the Ethernet protocol, but  
increases speed tenfold over 10/100 Ethernet to 1000 Mbps or one Gbps.  
Fast Ethernet Controller  
The MPC8540 Processor provides a Fast Ethernet Controller (FEC) apart from the TSECs  
used for the Gigabit Ethernet. The FEC is designed to support 10/100 Mbps, supporting both  
half and full duplex operations.  
DMA Controller  
The DMA Controller of the MPC8540 allows DMA transfers between PCI, the local bus  
controller (LBC) interface, and the local address space, independent of the e500 core or  
external hosts.

Private I C Bus  
2
There are two private I C busses implemented on the IPMI Module of ATCA-C110/1G. The  
2
busses are Master-only I C busses implemented on the Slave micro-controllers.  
2
The private I C Bus from the ATMega8 micro-controller has the following devices:  
Board Information Block (BIB) EEPROM  
Note The 64 kb Serial EEPROM contains the BIB (board Information block) data structure,  
consisting of information such as the serial number of the board, MAC addresses of network  
2
interfaces, variant information and some additional information. The EEPROM has an I C  
2
interface and is connected to the private I C interface of the IPMC.  
Two temperature sensors, which monitors the inlet and outlet air temperature of the board  
and the onboard temperature sensor  
The Telecom clock buffer-enable and the Telecom clock selection signals.  
Payload Interface  
The ATCA-C110/1G provides a UART interface intended for use as an interface to the host  
(payload). The payload interface is implemented using the built-in USART1 controller of the  
Master Controller of the IPMI Block. The ATCA-C110/1G boards are equipped with 8 MHz  
clocks and provide reliable support for baud rates of up to 9600 on the payload interface. The  
payload interface implements data lines (RXD1, TXD1) only.  
8-bit Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC)  
The ADCs of the IPMI monitor the voltages on the ATCA-C110/1G. In addition to the voltages,  
the current drawn by the payload from the Power module on the 12V rail and the temperature  
of the Power module are also monitored. The current drawn by the AMC on the 12V and the  
Management Power rail are measured by the IPMC using the ADCs of the micro-controller.  
AMC Power Limiting Control  
The IPMI management on the ATCA-C110/1G controls the power to the AMC module. The  
power control block of the IPMI continuously monitors the payload power delivered to the AMC  
module.  
Telecom Clock Interface Control  
The IPMI controls the telecom clock selection on ATCA-C110/1G, to provide the E-keying  
support. The selected clock from the backplane is processed for jitter and then is fed to the AMC  
bays and the RTM.  
The clock selection logic also provides the option for AMC Bay 3 or AMC Bay 4 to drive a  
reference clock signal to the backplane.

PCI-Express to PCI Bridge  
The PCI-to-PCI-Express Bridge acts as the interface between the FIM (through its PCI-Express  
interface) and the Processor of the ATCA-C110. The PCI-Express to PCI Bridge supports full  
forward and reverse transparent bridging applications.  
The FIM of the ATCA-C110 uses PCI-Express to PCI Bridge in the forward bridging mode to  
allow the PCI configuration register access through PCI-Express interface. The Internal Arbiter  
of the bridge is also utilized for arbitration on the PCI bus. The PCI bus operates in 32-bit  
66 MHz mode.  
Ethernet Switching Fabric  
The Ethernet switching fabric on the FIM of the ATCA-C110 is a 24 port GbE switch from  
Broadcom used for multilayer switching applications. This switching fabric is a complete IPv6-  
enabled Layer 2 and Layer 3 switch-on-chip solution.  
SATA Multiplexer  
The SATA Multiplexer on the FIM of the ATCA-C110 is a four channel bi-directional 2:1  
SATA/SAS Mux/Demux supporting both 1.5 and 3.0 Gbps standard rates, transparently passing  
through Out-of-Band signaling. Each of the four channels operates independently.  
The SATA Multiplexer is used to route the SATA interfaces from the host AMC Bays to the  
storage Bays and also to the RTM. This functionality is under software control and is  
programmable, allowing flexible AMC interfacing between two AMC bays.

Power-on Sequence  
The power-on sequence is controlled by the CPLD onboard the ATCA-C110/1G. The Enable  
signals from the CPLD enables the corresponding regulator and the Power Good signals from  
the regulator indicates the stabilization of the corresponding power supply. Refer to Power  
Supplies on page 50 for more details.  
Reset Architecture  
The reset sources are explained in Reset Sources on page 26. The CPLD is the heart of the  
Reset architecture, which implements the logic required for the same.  
Boot ROM Selection  
The redirection of the Boot Flash access to the Recovery Flash is through the CPLD. This  
redirection of boot access is controlled by the IPMI. The CPU must, by default, boot from the  
Primary Boot Flash. If the boot from Primary Boot Flash fails, the IPMC with the CPLD redirects  
the access to the Secondary Boot Flash. See Figure 4-2 on page 41 for representation of the  
Primary and Secondary Boot Flash connections.  
PCI Interface  
The PCI interface is used for communication between the CPU and the PCI express devices.  
The PCI interface uses a 64-bit multiplexed data/address bus with a frequency of 66 MHz, plus  
various control and error signals. The devices on the PCI interface are the MPC8540 and the  
PCI-to-PCI-Express Bridge. Refer to PCI/PCI-X Interface on page 40 for details about the  
Processor PCI interface.  
PCI-to-PCI-Express Bridge  
The PCI-to-PCI-Express Bridge acts as the interface between the FIM (through its PCI-Express  
interface) and the Processor.  
There are several specific data transfer modes which the PCI-to-PCI-Express Bridge supports  
as it transfers data between PCI and PCI-Express: forward and reverse bridging (via pin  
strapping option) as well as transparent and non-transparent bridging.  
Note The ATCA-C110/1G uses the PCI-to-PCI-Express Bridge in the transparent mode as a  
reverse bridge.  
PCI-Express Interface  
PCI-Express is a serial point-to-point high-speed interface with a LVDS interconnects. It  
supports full duplex configuration with independent TX and RX lines. The PCI-Express interface  
of the Processor functions both as a master (initiator) and a target device.  
ATCA-C110/1G uses x4 links with an effective bandwidth of 8 Gbps or 1 GBps in each direction;  
the effective data bandwidth of the PCI-Express links on ATCA-C110/1G is 2 GBps.

AMC Connectors  
The AMC modules are connected to the carrier board via the AMC connectors. See Figure 5-2  
on page 52 for AMC connector locations.  
The AMC Connector has distinct regions for interfacing various interfaces on the AMC Card.  
The port mapping of the AMC on the ATCA-C110/1G is shown in Table 5-7, followed by a brief  
description of each mapped region. Table 5-8 on page 61 describes each port mapping of the  
AMC Card on ATCA-C110/1G.

The telecom synchronization clocks from LCCB interface are routed to the AMC boards. The  
option for the AMC Module to drive the CLK3 to the ATCA backplane is provided for the AMC  
Bay3 and AMC Bay4.  
Common Options Region  
The ATCA-C110/1G has two Gigabit Ethernet SerDes ports and two SATA ports on the  
Common Options Region interface.  
The Gigabit Ethernet SerDes ports from each AMC Bay are routed to the Fabric Interface  
Module through the carrier board.

Chapter 5 Controls, Indicators and Connector Pin Assignments  
The SATA ports are mapped to the Port 2 and Port 3 of the AMC connector as per the AMC.3  
Specification. The ports from each of the AMC Bays are routed to the Fabric Interface Module.  
Fat Pipes Region  
The Fat Pipes Region in the ATCA-C110/1G is used for the x4 PCI-Express link from the AMC  
cards to the PCI-Switch on the FIM.  
Note The AMC.1 Specification defines a Control and Management x1 PCI-Express interface  
for the Type-P AMC Modules. This interface is not supported on the ATCA-C110/1G board.  
Extended Options Region  
Note The Extended Options Region of the AMC Bay is not used on ATCA-C110/1G. and is  
meant for debug purposes only.  
This option is used to define Non-LVDS signals to or from the AMC. The AMC POST code  
information is serialized and is given to the AMC carrier, which is decoded by the Programmable  
Logic and this drives the LEDs on the ATCA carrier.

ATCA Backplane Connectors  
The ATCA backplane connectors reside in the three zones 1 to 3 as specified by the ATCA  
standard and are called J10, J20 to J23 and J30 to J31.  
Figure 5-3 shows the location of ATCA connectors located at the back of the board.  
Zone 1 supplies a -48-V power connection and the shelf-management network interface.  
Zone 2 provides the data transport support for the switch fabric.  
Zone 3 is for the rear transition modules (RTM) to handle cabling to devices on the main  
boards. The ARTM-C110 Rear Transition Module mates directly with the ATCA-C110/1G  
blade via the Zone 3 connector.

MPC8540 Processor. The PCI interrupts from the PCI/PCI-X to PCI-Express Bridge, the GbE  
Phy interrupts and the interrupt from the DPLL of the LCCB interface are wired to the MPC8540  
Processor. Given below is an illustration of the interrupt architecture.

Shelf Management Registers (IPMI interface)  
For details about accessing the IPMC via IPMI commands as well as Sensor Data Records  
(SDRs) and Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) information provided by the blade, refer to the  
ATCA-C110/1G Preliminary IPMI Reference Manual as listed in Appendix D, Related  
Digital IO  
The IPMI interface of the ATCA-C110/1G helps in the configuration and operations of the board  
through its GPIO pins. They are listed as follows:  
Payload Reset  
The Payload Reset signal, PAYLOAD_RST#, is the signal from the IPMI to the CPLD through  
which the IPMI can reset the board.  
Boot ROM Selection  
The IPMI determines the selection of the Boot ROM from which the CPU boots. The CPU boots  
from the Primary Boot Flash, by default. However, if the boot from Primary Boot Flash fails, the  
IPMC with the CPLD redirects the access to the Secondary Boot Flash.  
Payload Power Enable  
The Payload power of ATCA-C110/1G is controlled by the IPMI block, which enables or disables  
the Payload power through the FRU_EN signal. This signal enables the power brick so as to  
enable onboard conversion from -48V to 12V.

Power Requirements  
The blade’s power requirements depend on the installed hardware accessories. If you want to  
install accessories on the board, the load of the respective accessory has to be added to that  
of the blade.  
In the following table you will find typical examples of power requirements with and without  
accessories installed. For information on the accessories’ power requirements, refer to the  
documentation delivered together with the respective accessory or consult your local Motorola  
representative for further details.  
The blade must be connected to a TNV-2 or a safety-extra-low-voltage (SELV) circuit.  
Note A TNV-2 circuit is a circuit whose normal operating voltages exceed the limits for a SELV  
circuit under normal operating conditions, and which is not subject to over voltages from  
telecommunication networks.  
The power to the FIM is supplied via the pins of the FIM Connector. Three main voltages are  
fed through the FIM Connector to the FIM board: 12V, 5V, 3.3V and 3.3V Management Power.  
Other voltages required are derived on the FIM board.

EMC Compliance  
The ATCA-C110/1G was tested in an EMC-compliant chassis and meets the requirements for  
EN55022 Class A equipment. Compliance was achieved under the following conditions:  
Shielded cables on all external I/O ports  
Cable shields connected to earth ground via metal shell connectors bonded to a conductive  
module front panel  
Conductive chassis rails connected to earth ground. This provides the path for connecting  
shields to earth ground  
Front panel screws properly tightened  
For minimum RF emissions, it is essential that the conditions above be implemented. Failure to  
do so could compromise the EMC compliance of the equipment containing the board.

Thermal Validation  
C
Thermal Requirements  
Board component temperatures are affected by ambient temperature, airflow, board electrical  
operation and software operation. In order to evaluate the thermal performance of a circuit  
board assembly, it is necessary to test the board under actual operating conditions. The  
operating conditions vary depending on system design.  
While Embedded Communications Computing performs thermal analysis in a representative  
system to verify operation within specified ranges (see Appendix B, Specifications), you should  
evaluate the thermal performance of the board in your application. Contact Motorola for current  
information on the thermal validation of the ATCA-C110/1G.  
Thermally Significant Components  
The following table summarizes components that exhibit significant temperature rises. These  
components should be monitored in order to assess thermal performance. The table also  
supplies the component reference designator and the maximum allowable operating  
temperature.  
Versions of the board that are not fully populated may not contain some of these components.  
The preferred measurement location for a component may be junction, case, or air as  
specified in the table. Junction temperature refers to the temperature measured by an on-chip  
thermal device. Case temperature refers to the temperature at the top, center surface of the  
component. Air temperature refers to the ambient temperature near the component.

Component Temperature Measurement  
The following sections outline general temperature measurement methods. For the specific  
types of measurements required for thermal evaluation of this board, see Table C-1 on page 95.  
Preparation  
We recommend 40 AWG (American Wire Gauge) thermocouples for all thermal measurements.  
Larger gauge thermocouples can wick heat away from the components and disturb air flowing  
past the board.  
Allow the board to reach thermal equilibrium before taking measurements. Most circuit boards  
will reach thermal equilibrium within 30 minutes. After the warm up period, monitor a small  
number of components over time to assure that equilibrium has been reached.  
Measuring Junction Temperature  
There is an independent temperature sensor to measure inlet air temperature. Both sensors are  
monitored by the IPMC and temperature can be read over IPMI. In addition the IPMC can also  
monitor the temperature of the power brick.  
For instructions on measuring temperatures using the onboard device, refer to the  
ATCA-C110/1G IPMI Preliminary Reference Manual and to the component manufacturer’s  
documentation listed in Appendix D, Related Documentation.  
Measuring Case Temperature  
Measure the case temperature at the center of the top of the component. Make sure there is  
good thermal contact between the thermocouple junction and the component. We recommend  
you use a thermally conductive adhesive such as Loctite 384.

Appendix C Thermal Validation  
If components are covered by mechanical parts such as heatsinks, you will need to machine  
these parts to route the thermocouple wire. Make sure that the thermocouple junction contacts  
only the electrical component. Also make sure that heatsinks lay flat on electrical components.  
Figure C-1 on page 97 shows one method of machining a heatsink base to provide a  
thermocouple routing path.  
Note Machining a heatsink base reduces the contact area between the heatsink and the  
electrical component. You can partially compensate for this effect by filling the machined areas  
with thermal grease. The grease should not come in contact with the thermocouple junction.

Measuring Local Air Temperature  
Measure local component ambient temperature by placing the thermocouple downstream of  
the component. This method is conservative since it includes heating of the air by the  
component. Figure C-2 illustrates one method of mounting the thermocouple.
