INTRODUCTION

MANUAL OBJECTIVES

This manual describes in detail the Blue Chip Technology ATOM Single Board processor card.

We have tried to include as much information as possible but we have not duplicated information that is

provided in the standard IBM Technical References, unless it proved to be necessary to aid in the

understanding of the ATOM.

The manual is sectioned and includes a User Guide which will help the non technical user to get the unit up

and running. A Troubleshooting Guide is also included to help when things go wrong.

We strongly recommend that you study this manual carefully before attempting to interface with ATOM or

change the standard configurations. Whilst all the necessary information is available in this manual we

would recommend that unless you are confident, you contact your supplier for guidance.

Please be aware that it is possible to create configurations within the CMOS RAM that make booting

impossible. If this should happen, clear the CMOS settings, (see the description of the Jumper Settings for

details).

If you have any suggestions or find any errors concerning this manual and want to inform us of these, please

contact our Technical Services department with the relevant details.

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

In no event shall Blue Chip Technology be held liable for any loss, expenses or damages of any kind

whatsoever, whether direct, indirect, incidental or consequential, arising from the design or use of this

product or the support materials supplied with this product. If this product proves to be defective, Blue Chip

Technology is only obliged to replace or refund the purchase price at Blue Chip Technology's discretion

according to their Terms and Conditions of Sale.

PRECAUTIONS

It is imperative that precautions are taken to avoid electro-static discharges, or any maltreatment of the on-

board battery.

ELECTRO-STATIC DISCHARGES

The devices on this card can be totally destroyed by static electricity. Ensure that you take necessary static

precautions, ideally wear an approved wrist strap or touch a suitable ground to discharge any static build

up. This should be repeated if the handling is for any length of time.

When carrying the board around, please place it into the anti-static bag in which it came. This will prevent

any static electricity build up.

ON-BOARD BATTERY

This board is fitted with a Lithium battery. Great care should be taken with this type of battery. Under NO

circumstances should :

• the outputs be shorted

• be exposed to temperatures in excess of 100°C

• be burnt

• be immersed in water

PAGE 2INTRODUCTION ATOM USER MANUAL

PAGE 201271029.DOC BLUE CHIP TECHNOLOGY LTD.

• be unsoldered

• be recharged

• be disassembled

If the battery is mistreated in any way there is a very real possibility of fire, explosion, and harm.
