6.1.2 Backing Plate
The MPCBL0001 SBC has a rugged metal backing plate that forms a single-piece face plate. This
backing plate is made of 1.2 mm (0.048") steel which has been zinc post-plated to resist corrosion
and rust. The solid backing plate provides PCB stiffening, enhanced EMI protection from adjacent
boards, and protection during flame tests. The backing plate improves serviceability by making the
SBC more durable.
Four holes are provided in the bottom of the backing plate for mounting an optional hard drive in
the provided hard drive carrier (with the included M3 screws). Four additional holes are provided
for securing an optional PMC through the front or rear standard mounting positions.
Caution: Removing the backing plate can damage the components on the board and may void the warranty.
No user-serviceable parts are available under the PCB. Do not remove the face plate/backing plate.
