Introduction
The half-size PCA-6143P comes equipped with either an 80486SX-
25, 80486SX-33, 80486DX-33, 80486DX2-50 or 80486DX2-66
CPU. Also included on-board are one serial RS-232 port, one serial
RS-232/422/485 port, an enhanced bi-directional parallel port, an IDE
hard disk drive interface, a floppy disk controller and a watchdog
timer. The watchdog timer ensures that the CPU will be reset if it
stops due to a program or EMI problem, allowing the PCA-6143P to
be used in stand-alone systems or unattended environments. The PCA-
6143P’s industrial-grade construction ensures continuous, reliable
operation in harsh industrial environments at temperatures up to 140oF
(60oC).
We designed the PCA-6143P with SBC (Single Board Computer)
applications in mind. It incorporates a single-voltage power supply
(+5 V) and a connector for PC/104 modules (Flat-panel/CRT VGA
controller or Flash/RAM/ROM disk).A built-in Flash/ROM disk
emulates a floppy disk drive of up to 1.44 MB capacity. It emulates
the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th DOS drive, depending on the physical disks
installed and the DOS version. See AppendixA for details.
Built using CMOS technology, the PCA-6143P consumes very little
power. Its two SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) DRAM
sockets accept 1 MB, 4 MB or 16MB SIMM modules for total on-
board memory of 1 to 32 MB.
You can also use this 8-layer CPU card to transform any system into a
32-bit 486 compatible computer, its all-in-one configuration freeing-
up valuable expansion slots. Its highly compact form and numerous
features make it an ideal cost/performance solution for high-end
commercial and industrial applications where high CPU speed and
low mean-time-to-repair are critical.

Jumpers and connectors
Connectors on the board link it to external devices such as hard disk
drives, a keyboard or PC/104 modules. In addition, the board has a
number of jumpers which you use to configure it for your application.
The table below lists the function of each of the board jumpers and
connectors. Later sections in this chapter give instructions on setting
jumpers and detailed information on each jumper setting. Chapter 3
gives instructions for connecting external devices to your card. Pin
assignments for each connector appear there or in Appendix D.

SIMM memory modules
On the left end of the card (away from the mounting bracket) are the
two SIMM (Single In-line Memory Module) sockets which hold the
card’s DRAM memory. If you ordered DRAM SIMMs along with
your card, the SIMMs may already be installed. If not, you should
install them as described in Appendix C.
Flash/RAM/ROM disk
At the right of the card are three 32-pin sockets which hold the
memory chips for the card's Flash/RAM/ROM disk. Instructions for
installing memory chips appear in Appendix A.

Safety precautions
Follow these simple precautions to protect yourself from harm and
your PC from damage.
1. To avoid electric shock always disconnect the power from your PC
chassis before you work on it. Don’t touch any components of the
CPU card or other cards while the PC is on.
2. Disconnect power before making any configuration changes. The
sudden rush of power as you connect a jumper or install a card
may damage sensitive electronic components.
3. Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before you
touch your CPU card. Be particularly careful not to touch the chip
connectors. Modern integrated electronic devices, especially CPUs
and memory chips, are extremely sensitive to static electric
discharges and fields. Keep the card in its anti-static packaging
when it is not installed in the PC and place it on a static dissipative
mat when you are working on it. Wear a grounding wrist strap for
continuous protection.
Jumper settings
This section tells how to set the jumpers to configure your card. It
gives the card default configuration and your options for each jumper.
After you set the jumpers and install the card, you will also need to
run the BIOS Setup program (discussed in Chapter 5) to configure the
serial port addresses, floppy/hard disk drive types and system operat-
ing parameters. Connections, such as hard-disk cables, appear in
Chapter 3.
Card default setting
We set the card’s jumpers at the factory for the most popular configu-
ration. If this configuration matches your needs, you may not need to
change the jumpers at all. The default configuration is as follows:
• Watchdog invokes system reset • Color display is attached
• Parallel port IRQ7, DRQ1, DACK1 • Bypass POST (JP14)
Chapter 1 Hardware Configuration 9
How to set jumpers
You configure your card to match the needs of your application by
setting jumpers. A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. It
consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a
plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a
jumper you connect the pins with the clip. To “open” a jumper you
remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1, 2
and 3. In this case you would connect either pins 1 and 2 or 2 and 3.
If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your
application, contact your local distributor or sales representative
before you make any changes.
Display type (JP15)
This jumper sets the display adapter type attached to your card. If you
are using a monochrome LCD or EL screen which uses a CGA, EGA,
VGA or other color display adapter, set JP15 to color.
JP15 Setting
Open Monochrome
Closed (default) Color
Watchdog timer system reset/IRQ15 (JP8)
When the watchdog timer activates (CPU processing has come to a
halt), it can reset the system or generate an interrupt on IRQ15. Set
jumper JP8 as shown in the following table:

1-2 System Reset
3-4 IRQ15
