Caution:
Electronic components on printed circuit boards are extremely sensitive to static electricity.
Ordinary amounts of static electricity generated by your clothing or work environment can
damage the electronic equipment. It is recommended that anti-static ground straps and anti-
static mats are used when installing the board in a system to help prevent damage due to
electrostatic discharge.

Chapter 1
About This Guide
This manual describes the operation and use of the CPC5565 Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Single
Board Computer (referred to as the CPC5565 in this guide). The following outline describes the
focus of each chapter.
Chapter 2, “Introduction,” on page 19 provides an overview of the CPC5565 and includes
information such as product features, a functional block diagram with a brief description of each
block, and descriptions of software such as the BIOS, supported operating systems, and IPMI.
Chapter 3, “Getting Started,” on page 33 provides setup information such as unpacking the
product, system requirements, and installation procedures.
Chapter 4, “System Monitoring and Alarms,” on page 61 describes the commands supported
by the on-board Intelligent Platform Management Controller.
Chapter 5, “Connectors,” on page 85 provides connector location, description, and pinout
information for the CPC5565’s CompactPCI connectors, front panel, and internal connectors. It
also includes a description of the serial cable recommended for use with the front panel RJ11
serial connector.
Chapter 6, “Reset,” on page 101 describes the CPC5565 reset types with their respective
sources.
Chapter 7, “Specifications,” on page 103 contains mechanical, electrical, and environmental
specifications as well as product reliability specifications.
Chapter 8, “Thermal Considerations,” on page 109 describes the thermal requirements to
reliably operate a CPC5565 processor board.
Chapter 9, “Agency Approvals,” on page 111 presents agency approval and certification
information.
Chapter 10, “Data Sheet Reference,” on page 115 provides information on data sheets,
standards, and specifications for the technology designed into the CPC5565.
The CPC5565 assembly should be used in conjunction with the PT software package that you
have chosen, for example NexusWare®Core.
The most current documentation to support any additional components that you purchased
from PT is available at www.pt.com under the product you are inquiring about.
