Introduction

Connect Tech’s PCI/104-Express to PCI Express Adapter enables users to install any x1, x4, x8 or x16 lane PCI Express card in a PCI/104-Express stack.

This convenient adapter board enables the testing, development and deployment for standard PCI Express cards into embedded the PCI/104-Express environment.

Features
  • PCI/Express x1, x4, x8, x16 Lane Card Compatible
  • PCI/104-Express & PCIe/104 Compatible
  • SBC Bottom Stacking Compatible
1. Block Diagram

Below is a high level view of the PCI/104-Express to PCI Express Adapter. Aside from the x1 and x16 lane switch the rest of the PCI express signals are direct connections to those of the PCI/104-Express signals. See Table 1 in this manual for a full listing of pinouts and interconnections.

3. Hardware Installation
PC104 Stand-Offs

When installing your PCI/104-Express SBC system onto ADG021, four proper stack height (0.6”) PC/104 standoffs must be used. If standoffs are not used, there is a high likelihood that the PCI/104-Express connector will be damaged. 4 x PC/104 standoffs, 4 x PC/104 nuts and 4 x PC/104 screws are provided to complete your PCI/104-Express SBC installation to the ADG021.

Support Bracket Installation

The ADG021 product ships with a Standard Height PCI Express Custom Support Bracket that can be optionally installed to provide greater stability to the PCI Express add-on card installed into your PCI/104-Express stack.

Installation steps:

  1. Insert bracket into alignment holes (see photo above for bracket location on PCB)
  2. Install and tighten each of the 4 supplied nuts.
3. Pinouts and Signal Interconnect

4. PCI/104-Express SBC Compatibility

Connect Tech’s PCI/104-Express to PCI Express Adapters board’s enables users to install any x1, x4, x8 or x16 lane PCI Express card in a PCIe/104 or PCI/104-Express stack. However certain CPU boards only populate the PCI-104/Express connector on the bottom side or on the top side of the board, allowing for a stack DOWN ONLY configuration, or a stack UP ONLY configuration. In these cases you must use the correct stacking Connect Tech adapter. Below is a compatibility list of all the known PCIe/104 or PCI-104/Express CPU boards that are on the market at the time this document was created.

To view the most recent list, please refer to our online Knowledge Database Document which can be found here: http://www.connecttech.com/KnowledgeDatabase/kdb316.htm

5. Power Notes

Some PCI/104-Express SBC systems will not come with +3.3V power over the PCI/104-Express connector.
If this is the case, enable jumper block J1 Position A** (See errata) to enable the on board regulator to generate +3.3V (which is limited to 1.5A) for your PCI Express card. If the SBC you are using does provide +3.3V power, do not enable this jumper.

PCI/104-Express Power Specifications
Voltage Minimum Voltage (V) Maximum Voltage (V) Number of Pins Current per Pin (A) Total Current (A) Total Power (W)
+3.3V 3.0 3.6 2 1.8 3.6 11.9
+5V 4.75 5.25 2 planes 8.4 16.8 84.0
+12V 11.40 12.60 1 plane 8.4 8.4 100.8
+5V_SB 4.75 5.25 2 1.8 3.6 18.0
