About this Manual
GPIO
General Purpose Input Output.
GPO
General Purpose Output.
HDMI
High Definition Multimedia Interface.
I2C
Inter Integrated Circuit - 2 wire (clock and data) signaling scheme
allowing communication between integrated circuits, primarily
used to read and load register values.
IDE
Integrated Device Electronics - parallel interface for hard disk
drives - also known as PATA.
LPC
Low Pin-Count Interface: a low speed interface used for peripheral
circuits such as Super I/O controllers, which typically combine
legacy-device support into a single IC.
LVDS
Low Voltage Differential Signaling - widely used as a physical
interface for TFT flat panels. LVDS can be used for many high-
speed signaling applications. In this document, it refers only to
TFT flat-panel applications.
PCI
Peripheral Component Interface.
PCIE
Peripheral Component Interface Express - next-generation high
speed Serialized I/O bus.
PHY
Ethernet controller physical layer device.
Pin-out Type
A reference to one of five COM Express definitions for what signals
appear on the COM Express module connector pins.
SPD
Serial Presence Detect - refers to serial EEPROM on DRAMs that
has DRAM module configuration information.
S0, S1, S2, S3, S4,
S5
System states describing the power and activity level.
S0 Full power, all devices powered S1 S2 S3 Suspend to RAM
System context stored in RAM; RAM is in standby.
S4 Suspend to Disk System context stored on disk.S5 Soft Off
Main power rail off, only standby power rail present.
SATA
Serial AT Attachment: serial-interface standard for hard disks.
SDVO
Serialized Digital Video Output - Intel defined
format for digital video output that can be used with Carrier Board
conversion ICs to create parallel, TMDS, and LVDS flat panel
formats as well as NTSC and PAL TV outputs.
