Handling your board safely
Anti-static handling
This board contains CMOS devices that could be damaged in the event of static
electricity being discharged through them. At all times, please observe anti-static
precautions when handling the board. This includes storing the board in appropriate anti-
static packaging and wearing a wrist strap when handling the board.
Battery
The ISIS-Breakout board contains a lithium non-rechargeable battery. Do not short circuit
the battery or place on a metal surface where the battery terminals could be shorted.
When disposing of the board or battery, take appropriate care. Do not incinerate, crush or
otherwise damage the battery. The battery is inserted in a socket and can be replaced
with a 3.0V Lithium CR2032 Coin Cell.
Packaging
Please ensure that, should a board need to be returned to Eurotech, it is adequately
packed, preferably in the original packing material.
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
The ISIS is classified as a component with regard to the European Community EMC
regulations and it is the user’s responsibility to ensure that systems using the board are
compliant with the appropriate EMC standards.
RoHS compliance
The European RoHS Directive (Restriction on the use of certain Hazardous Substances –
Directive 2002/95/EC) limits the amount of 6 specific substances within the composition
of the product.
A full RoHS Compliance Materials Declaration Form for the ISIS is included as Appendix
B – RoHS Compliance, page 27. Further information regarding RoHS compliance is
available on the Eurotech web site at www.eurotech.com.

Expansion buses
PC/104-Plus bus interface
The PC/104-Plus bus interface on the ISIS supports PCI local bus compatible
peripherals, as defined in the PCI Local Bus Specification Revision 2.2. This version of
the PCI bus is intended as a 32-bit bus running at 33MHz.
The ISIS supports a stack of up to four PC/104-Plus cards. In standard operation the ISIS
is used on the top of the PC/104-Plus stack, however PC/104-Plus and PC/104 cards
can be stacked up onto the ISIS by using a PC/104-Plus extender standoff solution.
The +5V and +12V power rails are routed to the PCI interface to provide power to the
PC/104-Plus modules. If -12V is required, it needs to be supplied directly to the PC/104-
Plus add-on board.
PC/104 bus interface
PC/104 bus interface (www.pc104.org) supports 16-bit ISA compatible peripherals.
Standard 64+40 way 0.1" stack-through connectors are used.
The +5V and +12V power supply lines are routed to the PC/104 bus connectors to
provide power to the modules. If -12V or -5V is required, they need to be supplied directly
to the PC/104 add-on board.
As the US15W SCH does not support legacy DMA, there is no DMA support on the ISA
bus. Only 8/16-bit memory and IO PC/104 cards are supported.
PCI Express Mini Card socket
A PCI Express Mini Card socket is available for wireless connectivity.
The CPU module PCI Express port 2 is connected directly to the PCIe Mini Card socket
on the ISIS. USB 2.0 and SMBus interfaces are also routed to the PCIe Mini Card socket.
The PCIe Mini Card socket supports a SIM card socket mounted onto the ISIS board.
Both PCIe Mini Card and SIM card sockets are located underneath the CPU module. It is
therefore required to remove the CPU module to access either of those sockets.
I2C/SMBus
The system management bus is made available for customer use via a 12-pin header
(J15) on the ISIS. The US15W SCH provides a SMBus Rev1.0 compliant host controller.
The I²C bus and the SMBus are essentially compatible with each other. Both buses
feature addressable slaves and operate at the same speed, up to 100kHz.
GPIO
Eight general purpose IO’s are provided via a 12-pin header (J15) on the ISIS. These are
individually configurable as inputs or outputs.

ISIS Dev Kit user manual

SDIO/MMC socket
An SDIO socket is provided on the ISIS using the CPU module 4 bit wide access port 1.
The SDIO card interface offers great flexibility, including the ability to use the SD socket
for data storage and I/O cards such as Bluetooth and WiFi. The SDIO/MMC controller
supports MMC4.0 and SDIO1.1 specifications.
MMC 4.0 transfer rates can be up to 48MHz; SDIO 1.1 supports transfer rates of up to
24MHz. The US15W SCH SDIO/MMC controller only supports flash cards using byte
addressing limiting the maximum memory density to 2GB. Sector based addressing is
not supported.
Graphics support
The ISIS development kit supports dual independent pipe for multiple display modes on
two outputs:
•24 bit LVDS.
•VGA.
The two display outputs can be configured in a number of display modes, to allow for
independent display timings and extended desktop/multi-monitor operating modes.
The ISIS development kit supports Single, Twin, Clone and Extended display
configuration modes.
Audio support
The ISIS supports an Intel High Definition Audio interface. The HD Audio digital bus is
decoded by the ISIS-HDA board, supporting 5.1 surround sound on standard 3.5mm
stereo jacks. See ISIS-HDA board, page 24 for more information.
USB support
There are four user USB 2.0 high-speed root ports (0/1/4/5) accessible on USB A
connectors located on the ISIS-Breakout board. USB 2.0 allows data transfers up to 480
MB/s.
Ethernet
One 10/100 Ethernet RJ45 socket is available on the ISIS-Breakout board. The Intel
82551IT controller supports MDI/MDI-X feature, enabling auto-correction of incorrect
cabling with respect to cross-over versus straight-through cables.
Link and Activity LED’s are built in the RJ45 socket and indicate the link state and
transfer activity of the ISIS over the network.

Hardware specification
Issue C 13
IDE support
The single primary parallel ATA/IDE interface is directly accessible on the ISIS board
through a 44-pin header (J5) on the ISIS board. This gives the user the possibility to
connect an external hard drive or CD-drive to the ISIS board.
An LED is present on the ISIS-Breakout and signals access to the IDE bus.
Flash
The ISIS supports a soldered down solid state FLASH disk with boot support. This is
interfaced on the IDE bus and provides options for 2GB and 4GB NAND flash. The Intel
Z-P140 PATA solid state disk is used for this function.
PS/2 interface
Legacy PS/2 keyboard and mouse are supported on standard PC99 MiniDin connectors.
Serial ports
Serial port 1 is a full RS-232 interface port and is connected to the Eurotech TSC1 by
default (LCD variant only). If the user does not wish to use the serial touchscreen
controller, it is possible to connect serial port 1 directly to the upper SUBD9 male
connector on the ISIS breakout. A suitable cable is provided in the cable kit to do so.
Serial port 2 is a software selectable RS232/485/422 port and is accessible on a standard
SUBD9 male connector.
GPS receiver
An optional GPS module is used on the ISIS to provide complete GPS functionality
including position, velocity and time (PVT).
The Fastrax iTrax300 GPS module is based on SiRF GSC3e/LP single chip. More
information on iTrax300 can be found at: iTrax300 (www.fastrax.fi).
Touchscreen controller
The ISIS development kit supports the Eurotech’s TSC1. The TSC1 is an analogue
resistive touchscreen controller that interfaces with the processor board via an RS232
serial port.
For more details about the TSC1, please go to www.eurotech.com or contact the
Eurotech sales team (see page 28).

Power requirements
The ISIS development kit system operates from a single +12V (+/-5%) power input on
2.1mm DC jack. All other required power rails are generated on-board.
A suitable +12V power supply is provided in the kit (auto-ranging 90-264VAC input,
12VDC 5Amps output switching power supply).
The typical power consumption of the development kit system with no extra device/add-
on card is less than 20W.
Although the ISIS does not use the +12V rail, it is routed to PC/104-Plus and PC/104
connectors and can be used by devices or modules stacked onto the ISIS module. It is
also connected to the 4-way PC type power connector to provide power to an optional
hard-drive or DVD/CD-drive.
A removable CR2032 coin cell battery is provided for RTC backup.
