This is a Class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause

radio interference, in which case the user may find it necessary to take

adequate corrective measures.

Environmental Protection Statement

This product has been manufactured to satisfy environmental protection

ACEX4041 Overview

The ACEX4041 uses the Mini-ITX form factor (170mm x 170mm) and is a

carrier for COM Express Type 10 Mini (55mm x 84mm) CPU modules. The

carrier provides an Audio codec, SATA Connection, 1Gb Ethernet and UART

(RX/TX) serial communication. The ACEX4041 also supports mini-PCIe or

AcroPack mezzanine modules and M.2 modules. The ACEX4041 carrier board

provides a modular approach to system assembly, since each carrier can be

populated with any combination of analog input/output, digital input/output,

ACEX4041 COM Express Type 10 AcroPack Carrier Board

communication, etc. AcroPack modules. Thus, the user can create a system

board which is customized to the application.

ACEX4041 KEY FEATURES

Mini ITX Form Factor - provides a small footprint using the Mini ITX form

factor (170mm x 170mm) with industry standard I/O panel area for ease of

system design for use with COTS (consumer off-the shelf) enclosures.

Interface for COM Express Type 10 CPU - The ACEX4041 provides an electrical

and mechanical interface for an industry standard COM Express Type 10 Mini

(55mm x 84mm) CPU module. These CPU modules are provided by other

vendors and come with a variety of options and features i.e. CPU speed,

memory size and power consumption.

Note: For best performance use CPU’s with 4 PCI Express lanes 0/1/2/3

configured as x4.

Interface for SATA up to 3GB/s –The carrier provides a SATA data connector

and a SATA power connector to allow for use of a Solid-State Disk Drive.

Mini Display Port –High resolution graphics interface connection.

Audio Interface –Provides interface (Line in / Line out) through the on-board

Codec integrated circuit for high quality audio.

USB Interface –Two USB 3.0 ports are available through the I/O panel area

via stacked USB connector. Speeds up to 5Gb/s.

Ethernet ports –Two Ethernet ports are available through the I/O panel area

via stacked RJ-45 connector. Speeds up to 1Gb/s.

Interface for Serial UART (RX/TX) –Provides two connectors to interface with

General purpose (RX/TX) TTL compatible two wire ports. RS-485/422 is not

supported.

Input Power Options –The ACEX4041 can be powered by either a standard

24 Pin ATX power supply or a 10-36Vdc power supply. The carrier will auto

switch between power sources. No switches or jumper need to be changed

when changing power supplies.

Interface for AcroPack modules –The ACEX4041 provides an electrical and

mechanical interface for up to four industry standard mini-PCIe or AcroPack

modules. AcroPack modules are available from Acromag. Mini-PCIe cards are

available from other vendors in a wide variety of input/output configurations

ACEX4041 COM Express Type 10 AcroPack Carrier Board

to meet the needs of varied applications. The I/O is easily accessed through

the I/O panel area via female SCSI-3 68 pin Champ 0.8mm connectors.

PCI Express Version 2.1 Compliant Carrier: - Includes a PCIe switch to allow

four PCIe devices (AcroPack or mini-PCIe) to share a single slot on the PC

motherboard. (Mini-PCIe use requires custom factory configurations) default

factory configuration is AcroPack.

Board Identification –A unique carrier and site number can be set for each

AcroPack site by a DIP switch. This feature provides the capability to

distinguish a particular AcroPack module from others when multiple instances

of the same module are used in a system.

JTAG Programming Header –A standard 14-pin Xilinx JTAG programming

header is provided for programming and debugging the FPGA on some

AcroPack modules. The JTAG ports of the two AcroPack modules are daisy-

chained.

Individually Fused Power - Fused +1.5V, +3.3V, +5V, +12V, and -12V DC

power is provided. A Resettable PTC fuse is present on each supply line

serving each AcroPack module except for the +3.3V Fuse. The +3.3V Fuse is A

Fast-Acting Surface Mount Fuse (SMF) and is a small (1206 size) thin-film

device. you must return the board to Acromag to replace the +3.3V fuse.

Battery less –The ACEX4041 Uses a Super Capacitor to maintain the

RTC/CMOS voltages for several days without any power.

Battery Backup Mode –The ACEX4041 can be used with an addition power

source such as a 10-36Volt DC Battery. When using the standard ATX power

supply and Battery Backup Mode and there is a power loss, the DC Battery

(10-36Vdc) will automatically be switched into action.

SIGNAL INTERFACE PRODUCTS

This AcroPack carrier board will mate directly to most industry standard mini-

PCIe and AcroPack modules. Acromag provides the following interface

products (all connections to field signals are made through the carrier board

which passes them to the individual AcroPack modules):

Cable

Model 5028-420 Round cable, shielded, 34 twisted pairs, male SCSI-3

connector to 68 pin CHAMP 0.8mm, 2 meters long.

Termination Panel

Model 5025-288 DIN-rail mountable panel provides 68 screw terminals for

universal field I/O termination, SCSI-3 connector.

ACEX4041 COM Express Type 10 AcroPack Carrier Board

Software Support

The AcroPack series products require support drivers specific to your

operating system. Supported operating systems include: Linux, Windows,

and VxWorks.

Windows

Acromag provides software products (sold separately) to facilitate the

development of Windowsapplications interfacing with AcroPack modules.

This software (model APSW-API-WIN) consists of low-level drivers and

Dynamic Link Libraries (DLLs) that are compatible with a number of

programming environments. The DLL functions provide a high-level interface

to boards eliminating the need to perform low-level reads/writes of registers,

and the writing of interrupt handlers.

VxWorks

Acromag provides a software product (sold separately) consisting of

VxWorkssoftware. This software (Model APSW-API-VXW) is composed of

VxWorks(real time operating system) libraries for all AcroPack modules,

VPX I/O board products, and PCIe I/O Cards. The software is implemented as a

library of “C” functions which link with existing user code to make possible

simple control of all Acromag AcroPack modules.

Linux

Acromag provides a software product consisting of Linuxsoftware. This

software (Model APSW-API-LNX) is composed of Linuxlibraries for all

AcroPack modules, VPX I/O board products, and PCIe I/O Cards. The software

is implemented as a library of “C” functions which link with existing user code

to make possible simple control of all Acromag AcroPack modules.
