Product Warranty (2 years)
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be
free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of pur-
chase.
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by
persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been
subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no
liability under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.
Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of
our customers never need to use our repair service. If an Advantech product is defec-
tive, it will be repaired or replaced at no charge during the warranty period. For out-
of-warranty repairs, you will be billed according to the cost of replacement materials,
service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.
If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU
speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc.) Note
anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages you get when the problem
occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product,
and any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return merchandize
authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return
more quickly.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and Replacement
Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt)
in a shippable container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date
is not eligible for warranty service.
5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid
to your dealer.

Safety Precaution - Static Electricity
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and the products from
damage.
To avoid electrical shock, always disconnect the power from your PC chassis
before you work on it. Don't touch any components on the CPU card or other
cards while the PC is on.
Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The sudden rush
of power as you connect a jumper or install a card may damage sensitive elec-
tronic components.

1.1 Introduction
SOM-5897 is equipped with the Intel® 6th Generation Core™/ Celeron/ Xeon prod-
uct family, which are manufactured on Intel 14nm process technology. SOM-5897
ECC/non-ECC memory supports DDR4 2133MT/s with 1.2V power design, and up to
32GB of dual channel. SOM-5897 not only supports higher memory bandwidth, but
also has 33% better battery life than previous generations. SOM-5897 is able to sup-
port 8 x PCIex1 as well as x4, x8 configurations if requested. Most important of all,
SOM-5897 adopts a 28mm low profile cooler with a TDP of 45watt at 60°C ambient
temperature (optional accessory). SOM-5897 is suitable for rich I/O applications with
high performance requirements, such as ultra sound, military, broadcasting, and
industrial automation fields.
Compared with previous generations there is 30% improvement in processor perfor-
mance and up to 50% better 3D graphics. It supports Qual/ Dual core CPU with
GT4e/ GT2, DX12, OpenGL 4.4, and OpenCL 2.0 functions. In addition, multiple dis-
plays are supported such as dual or triple displays. HDMI/DisplayPort with 4K2K res-
olution and dual channel LVDS and 16 simultaneous channels at 1920x1080 full HD
resolution are also available.
Advantech iManager was designed to satisfy a lot of embedded application require-
ments for monitoring and management of voltage and temperatures, thermal protec-
tion through processor throttling, LCD backlight on/off and brightness control and
