Quick Start
The basic procedures required to power on CEM530:
(1). Make sure the power is OFF before connecting the CEM530.
(2). Check to ensure the onboard switch SW1-1 and SW1-2 are set to
default (OFF position).
(3). Firmly install DDR4 SO-DIMM in DIMM1/DIMM2/optional SDIMM1 until
fully seated. For single memory channel configuration, install memory
module in channel 0 (DIMM1) or SDIMM1 DDR4 SO-DIMM socket. For
dual memory channel configuration, install memory modules of the
same size, chip width, density and rank in both channel 0 (DIMM1) and
channel 1 (DIMM2) DDR4 SO-DIMM sockets.
When using SDIMM1 memory socket, please use at least 8mm
height baseboard
(4). Attach heatsink with fan to the CEM530, refer to section Installing
Thermal Solution.
(5). Install the CEM530 onto COM ExpressTM baseboard, for example,
CEB94011 baseboard.
(6). Properly install all necessary peripheral devices such as hard disk,
display, keyboard and etc. to the baseboard.
(7). Firmly attach power supply to the baseboard power connector.
(8). Turn on the system power.
(9). Press power button on the baseboard to start CEM530.

Installing Thermal Solution
For thermal dissipation, a thermal solution enables the CEM530’s
components to dissipate heat efficiently. All heat generating components are
thermally conducted to the heatsink in order to avoid hot spots. Figure below
illustrates how to install the thermal solution on CEM530.
1. There is a protective plastic covering on the thermal pads. This must be
removed before the heatsink can be mounted.
2. Each heatsink is designed for a specific CEM module. The thermal pads
on the heatsink are designed to make contact with the necessary
components on the CEM module. When mounting the heatsink you must
make sure that the thermal pads on the heatsink make complete contact
(no space between thermal pad and component) with the corresponding
components on the CEM module. This is especially critical for CEM
modules that have higher CPU speeds (for example 1.0GHz or more) to
ensure that the heatsink acts as a proper thermal interface for cooling
solutions.
3. Before installing the heatsink to the CPU module, please apply thermal
grease on the CPU die. This CPU module has assembly holes for
installing heatsink plate. Use the appropriate screws to secure the
heatsink plate to the CEM530. Be careful not to over-tighten the screws.
