1 Introduction
1.1 COM Express™ Concept
COM Express™ is an open industry standard defined specifically for COMs (computer on modules). Its creation makes it possible to smoothly
transition from legacy interfaces to the newest technologies available today. COM Express™ modules are available in following form factors:
•Mini 84 mm x 55 mm
•Compact 95 mm x 95 mm
•Basic 125 mm x 95 mm
•Extended 155 mm x 110 mm
Table 1 COM Express™ 3.0 Pinout Types
Types Connector
Rows
PCIe Lanes PEG SATA Ports LAN ports USB 2.0/
SuperSpeed USB
Display Interfaces
Type 6 A-B C-D Up to 24 1 Up to 4 1 Up to 8 / 4 1VGA,LVDS/eDP, PEG, 3x DDI
Type 7 A-B C-D Up to 32 - Up to 2 5 (1x 1 Gb, 4x 10 Gb) Up to 4 / 4
Type 10 A-B Up to 4 - Up to 2 1 Up to 8 / 2 1LVDS/eDP, 1xDDI
1. The SuperSpeed USB ports (USB 3.0) are not in addition to the USB 2.0 ports. Up to 4 of the USB 2.0 ports can support SuperSpeed USB.
The conga-TC570 modules use the Type 6 pinout definition and comply with COM Express 3.0 specification. They are equipped with two high
performance connectors that ensure stable data throughput.
The COM integrates all the core components and is mounted onto an application specific carrier board. COM modules are legacy-free design
(no Super I/O, PS/2 keyboard and mouse) and provide most of the functional requirements for any application. These functions include, but
are not limited to a rich complement of contemporary high bandwidth serial interfaces such as PCI Express, Serial ATA, USB 2.0, and Gigabit
Ethernet. The robust thermal and mechanical concept, combined with extended power-management capabilities, is perfectly suited for all
applications.
Carrier board designers can use as little or as many of the I/O interfaces as deemed necessary. The carrier board can therefore provide all
the interface connectors required to attach the system to the application specific peripherals. This versatility allows the designer to create a
dense and optimized package, which results in a more reliable product while simplifying system integration. Most importantly, COM Express™
modules are scalable, which means once an application has been created there is the ability to diversify the product range through the use
of different performance class or form factor size modules. Simply unplug one module and replace it with another; no redesign is necessary.

2.4.2 Rise Time
The input voltages shall rise from 10 percent of nominal to 90 percent of nominal at a minimum slope of 250 V/s. The smooth turn-on requires
that, during the 10 percent to 90 percent portion of the rise time, the slope of the turn-on waveform must be positive.
2.5 Power Consumption
The power consumption values were measured with the following setup:
•Input voltage +12 V
•conga-TC570 COM
•Modified congatec carrier board
•conga-TC570 cooling solution
•Microsoft Windows 10 (64 bit)
Note
The CPU was stressed to its maximum workload with the Intel®Thermal Analysis Tool

Copyright © 2021 congatec GmbH TCTLm02 16/67
Table 6 Measurement Description
The power consumption values were recorded during the following system states:
System State Description Comment
S0: Minimum value Lowest frequency mode (LFM) with minimum core voltage during desktop idle
S0: Maximum value Highest frequency mode (HFM/Turbo Boost) The CPU was stressed to its maximum frequency
S0: Peak current Highest current spike during the measurement of “S0: Maximum value”. This
state shows the peak value during runtime.
Consider this value when designing the system’s power supply to
ensure that sufficient power is supplied during worst case scenarios
S3 COM is powered by VCC_5V_SBY
S5 COM is powered by VCC_5V_SBY
S5e COM is powered by VCC_5V_SBY
Note
1. The fan and SATA drives were powered externally.
2. All other peripherals except the LCD monitor were disconnected before measurement

-10oC 3V DC TBD µA
20oC 3V DC TBD µA
70oC 3V DC TBD µA
Note
1. Do not use the CMOS battery power consumption values listed above to calculate CMOS battery lifetime.
2. Measure the CMOS battery power consumption of your application in worst case conditions (for example, during high temperature and
high battery voltage).
3. Consider the self-discharge of the battery when calculating the lifetime of the CMOS battery. For more information, refer to application
note AN9_RTC_Battery_Lifetime.pdf on congatec GmbH website at www.congatec.com/support/application-notes.
4. We recommend to always have a CMOS battery present when operating the conga-TC570.
2.7 Environmental Specifications
Temperature (commercial variants) Operation: 0° to 60°C Storage: -20° to +80°C
Temperature (industrial variants) Operation: -40° to 85°C Storage: -40° to +85°C
Humidity Operation: 10% to 90% Storage: 5% to 95%
Caution
The above operating temperatures must be strictly adhered to at all times. When using a congatec heatspreader, the maximum operating
temperature refers to any measurable spot on the heatspreader’s surface.
Humidity specifications are for non-condensing conditions.

4 Cooling Solutions
congatec GmbH offers the following cooling solutions for the conga-TC570. The dimensions of the cooling solutions are shown in the
sub-sections. All measurements are in millimeters.
Table 9 Cooling Solution Variants
Cooling Solution Part No Description
1 CSA 050350 Active cooling solution with integrated heat pipes and 2.7 mm bore-hole standoffs
050351 Active cooling with integrated heat pipes and M2.5 mm threaded standoffs
2 CSP 050352 Passive cooling solution with integrated heat pipes and 2.7 mm bore-hole standoffs
050353 Passive cooling solution with integrated heat pipes and M2.5 mm threaded standoffs
3 HSP 050354 Heatspreader with integrated heat pipes and 2.7 mm bore-hole standoffs
050355 Heatspreader with with integrated heat pipes and M2.5 mm threaded standoffs
Note
1. We recommend a maximum torque of 0.4 Nm for carrier board mounting screws and 0.5 Nm for module mounting screws.
2. The gap pad material used on congatec heatspreaders may contain silicon oil that can seep out over time depending on the environmental
conditions it is subjected to. For more information about this subject, contact your local congatec sales representative and request the gap
pad material manufacturer’s specification.
Caution
1. The congatec heatspreaders/cooling solutions are tested only within the commercial temperature range of 0° to 60°C. Therefore, if your
application that features a congatec heatspreader/cooling solution operates outside this temperature range, ensure the correct operating
temperature of the module is maintained at all times. This may require additional cooling components for your final application’s thermal
solution.
2. For adequate heat dissipation, use the mounting holes on the cooling solution to attach it to the module. Apply thread-locking fluid on
the screws if the cooling solution is used in a high shock and/or vibration environment. To prevent the standoff from stripping or cross-
threading, use non-threaded carrier board standoffs to mount threaded cooling solutions.
3. For applications that require vertically-mounted cooling solution, use only coolers that secure the thermal stacks with fixing post. Without
the fixing post feature, the thermal stacks may move.
4. Do not exceed the recommended maximum torque. Doing so may damage the module or the carrier board, or both.
