2. Installation procedure
Installing the board
2.1
To get the board running, follow these steps. In some cases the board shipped from KONTRON has
premounted CPU (incl. KT690/mITX (BGA)), cooler and DDR2 DRAM. In this case step 1-3 can be skipped.
1. Install the processor (KT690/mITX and KT690/mITX-FW only)
The CPU is keyed and will only mount in the CPU socket in one way. Use a 6mm flatheaded screwdriver
to open/ close the CPU socket. The Mobile AMD Sempron™ and AMD Turion™ 64 X2 Mobile
Processors for S1 socket are supported, refer to supported processor overview for details.
2. Cooler Installation (KT690/mITX and KT690/mITX-FW only)
Mount the cooler using the clip holders mounted on the board. Connect the Fan electrically to the CPU
FAN connector.
3. Insert the DDR2 SODIMM 200pin DRAM module(s)
Push down the module from the top side until the tabs lock. For a list of approved DDR2 SODIMM modules
contact your Distributor or FAE.
DDR2 SODIMM 200pin DRAM modules (PC3200, PC4200, PC5300) are supported.

Warnings: Turn off PSU (Power Supply Unit) completely (no mains power connected to the
PSU) or leave the Power Connectors unconnected while configuring the board. Otherwise
components (RAM, LAN cards etc.) might get damaged.
Do not use PSU without 3.3V monitoring watchdog (standard feature in ATX PSU).
Running the board without 3.3V connected will damage the board after a few minutes.
Be careful not to short circuit the lithium battery for instance by placing the board upside down
directly on a metal plate etc. (battery 3V connected to ground via IO Connector housing).
