Technical Information C42-SATA • Low Profile Micro SATA SSD Mezzanine Module

Short Description

Available as a mezzanine add-on expansion board to EKF CPU carrier cards, the C42-SATA accommodates a Solid State Drive (SSD), as a rugged and fast mass storage media. The

C42-SATA has been designed to fit into the 4HP

(20.32mm) envelope of a CPCI CPU carrier board, so that another 4HP pitch mezzanine expansion board can be stacked above the

CPU/C42 assembly in addition.

As of current, Micro SATA solid state drives are available with up to 800GB capacity as of current, delivering sufficient space for installation of any popular operating system.

The 1.8-inch Micro SATA SSD will be fastened by means of a screw locked retainer, for optimum reliability. A Flash technology based

SATA drive provides significant advantages compared to rotating memory solutions (aka hard disk), e.g. less power consumption, faster data I/O transfers, lower latency time, industrial temperature grade and superior immunity against shock and vibration.

SSDs of different vendors may differ significantly in read/write access times. Contact

EKF for choosing an optimum solution.

Technical Reference - Connectors

Caution

Some of the connectors may provide operating voltage (e.g. +12V, +5V and +3.3V) to devices inside the system chassis, such as internal peripherals. Not all of these connectors are overcurrent protected.

Do not use these connectors for powering devices external to the computer chassis. A fault in the load presented by the external devices could cause damage to the board, the interconnecting cable and the external devices themselves.

P-SATA1 (Micro SATA Receptacle)

The C42-SATA can accommodate any 1.8-inch SATA standard form factor drive according to the

SFF-8144 specification, which results in a 5.0 mm maximum height, and 78.5mm x 54.0mm

dimensions. The Micro SATA connector in use is defined in Serial ATA Rev. 2.6. Devices with 8.0mm

height (probably only hard disk) could be used on the C42-SATA, but require additional headroom

(4HP envelope for the assembly not maintained in this case).

A mounting frame is used to hold the drive in its position, for extremely rugged applications.

Signal designations RX/TX assigned with respect to the SATA host controller (ICH Southbridge). Typical

Micro SATA SSD devices are powered from a single +3.3V rail. Power is supplied (and switched on/off according to Sx state) from the CPU carrier board, across the C42-SATA mezzanine connector P-MEZ.

Note: Do not confuse the Micro SATA connector specified by Serial ATA Rev. 2.6 with the proprietary

'Special SATA' connector as defined by Samsung (refer to Samsung 1.8” Form Factor Proposal ).

P-MEZ

The C42-SATA is equipped with a high speed mezzanine connector P-MEZ, mating with the

CCM-BOOGIE CPU carrier board and its successors. The inter-board connector is situated at the bottom of the C42-SATA and establishes the data path and power link to the carrier board CPU. Since the C42-SATA comes typically mounted as a unit together with the CCM-BOOGIE, there is normally no need for the user to get access to the inter-board connector. It is described here as a reference only and for better understanding of the C42-SATA.

The connector P-MEZ is a 1mm height shielded male pin header. Its counterpart on the CPU carrier board is a 8mm height receptacle, for a nominal headroom of 9mm between the boards.
