ePCI-X Bus Details

6.1

NuPRO-850 ePCI-X Bus

The NuPRO-850 provides PCI-X/PCI buses. Bus-A can run up to 64-bit PCI-X
66. Bus-B can run PCI 33MHz.

The ePCI-X Bus pin assignment is compatible with the PICMG 1.2 ePCI-X
specifications. In the following sections, we will describe the detail signal
definition and the design guide for the backplane designer to be compatible
with the NuPRO-850 ePCI-X bus.

6.2 Global

Signals

6.2.1

Standby Supply (+3.3Vaux)

The NuPRO-850 onboard circuit generate 3.3Vaux power from the +5Vaux or
+5V. Therefore, NuPRO-850 does not require the backplane to provide
+3.3Vaux.

6.2.2 ATX

Support

The ATX support signals include PWRGD, PSON#, PWRBT#, +5Vaux. The
NuPRO-850 design provides the ATX power control capability.

If the backplane did not provide the +5Vaux, then the PWRBT# and PSON#
will not work under ATX power mode. Users have to setup the external wiring to
switch on/off the power supply.

6.2.3 JTAG

NuPRO-850 does NOT implement the JTAG signals.

6.2.4 I

2

C Bus

The onboard SMBus is connected to the SER_SCL and SER_SDA pins.
