Product Information
SC1-ALLEGRO • CompactPCI ® Serial CPU CardIntel® Core™ i7-3xxx
Processor Quad-Core (Ivy Bridge)
Document No. 6460 • 4 December 2013
The SC1-ALLEGRO is a rich featured high
performance 4HP/3U CompactPCI® Serial CPU
board, equipped with a 3rd generation Intel®
Core™ i7 mobile processor (Ivy Bridge + ECC,
(dual- or quad-core). The SC1-ALLEGRO front
panel is provided with two Gigabit Ethernet
jacks, two USB 3.0 receptacles, and two Mini-
DisplayPort connectors for attachment of high
resolution digital displays, configured e.g. as
extended desktop.
The SC1-ALLEGRO is equipped with up to 16GBRAM with ECC support.
8GB memory-down areprovided for rugged applications, and another8GB
are available via the DDR3 ECC SO-DIMMsocket. As an option, a low
profile mezzaninemodule with dual mSATA SSDs may serve as
ahigh-speed RAID mass storage solution. TheSC1-ALLEGRO backplane
connectors complywith the PICMG® CompactPCI® Serial systemslot
specification.

Backplane Connector AssignmentAccording to PICMG® CPCI-S.0
While mechanically compliant to CompactPCI®Classic, CompactPCI®
Serial (PICMG® CPCIS.0)defines a completely new card slot, based
onPCI Express®, SATA, Gigabit Ethernet and USBserial data lines. Up
to 6 high-speed backplaneconnectors P1 - P6 are provided on a
systemslot controller such as the SC1-ALLEGRO, whichcan be
considered as a root hub with respect tomost signal lines. A
passive backplane is usedfor distribution of a defined subset of
I/Ochannels from the system slot to each of up toeight peripheral
slots in a CompactPCI® Serialsystem.
Most CompactPCI® Serial peripheral slot cardsrequire only the
backplane connector P1, whichcomprises PCIe, SATA and USB signals,
resultingin a concise and inexpensive peripheral boarddesign. More
powerful peripheral cards profitfrom so called Fat Pipe slots (PCIe
x 8).
The SC1-ALLEGRO is a native CompactPCI®Serial CPU card, suitable
for usage in a pureCPCI Serial environment. Due to its
generousbackplane capabilities (20 x PCI Express® lanes,6 x USB, 7
x SATA/RAID, 2 x GbE), very powerfulindustrial systems can be
built.

SC1-ALLEGRO • Mezzanine Board Connectors
The SC1-ALLEGRO is equipped with a set ofhigh-speed local
expansion interfaceconnectors, which can be optionally used
toattach a mezzanine side board. A variety ofexpansion cards is
available, e.g. providinglegacy I/O such as RS-232, and additional
PCIExpress® based I/O controllers such as SATA,USB 3.0 and Gigabit
Ethernet, and also a thirdvideo output.
Most mezzanine side cards can accommodatein addition a 2.5-inch
drive. Typically, theSC1-ALLEGRO and the related side card
wouldcome as a readily assembled 8HP unit. As analternate,
MicroSATA or mSATA SSD based lowprofile mezzanine mass-storage
modules areavailable that fit on the SC1-ALLEGRO 4HPenvelope,
nevertheless suitable for installationof any popular operating
system.
