F600 - 3U CompactPCI Side Card for SATA/Legacy I/O
MEN Mikro Elektronik GmbH 2
20F600-00 E2 – 2008-03-03
F600 - 3U CompactPCI Side Card for SATA/Legacy I/O
The F600 is a 4HP legacy I/O extension card for 3U Intel® based CompactPCI®
single-board computers such as F14, F15, F17, F18 and further boards of the Intel®
low power family.
Modern Intel® based boards increasingly support USB interfaces as an exclusive
universal connection of devices such as keyboard, mouse, CD-ROM, floppy etc.
Especially in industrial applications however many existing systems still use COM
interfaces.
The F600 provides SA-Adapter™ slots for up to four additional COMs, two at the
front panel and two on board. Since SA-Adapters™ provide the physical layers, the
F600 can be configured flexibly with a combination of RS232, RS422 or RS485
interfaces, alternatively isolated or not isolated. In addition an on-board 2.5" SATA
hard-disk slot can be used on the standard version of the F600, which comes with
two COM interfaces.
The F600 is directly plugged to the right side of the respective single-board
computer. A robust connector makes for high mechanical stability. It is delivered
with an 8HP front panel, replacing the 4HP front panel of a 3U single-board
computer and thus resulting in a solid one-piece front panel.

20F600-00 E2 – 2008-03-03
Product Safety
Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)
Computer boards and components contain electrostatic sensitive devices.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components. To protect the board and
other components against damage from static electricity, you should follow some
precautions whenever you work on your computer.
• Power down and unplug your computer system when working on the inside.
• Hold components by the edges and try not to touch the IC chips, leads, or cir-
cuitry.
• Use a grounded wrist strap before handling computer components.
• Place components on a grounded antistatic pad or on the bag that came with the
component whenever the components are separated from the system.
• Store the board only in its original ESD-protected packaging. Retain the original
packaging in case you need to return the board to MEN for repair.
