Introduction

This guide is written for using Radxa CM3 SoM with the CM3 IO board. The purpose is to learn the details of the boards as well as how to prepare and set up for basic use.

Overview

What you need

Necessary

  • CM3(any variant) + CM3 IO board
  • If the CM3 doesn't have eMMC, a micro SD card larger than 8GB is required for OS
  • Power supply
    • The main PSU input (DC) is a 2.1mm DC tip positive +12V(only) input.
  • Monitor and HDMI Cable
    • CM3 IO board is equipped with a full sized HDMI connector. HDMI capable monitor is recommended.
    • HDMI EDID display data is used to determine the best display resolution. On monitors and TVs that support 1080p (or 4K) this resolution will be selected. If 1080p is not supported the next available resolution reported by EDID will be used. This selected mode will work with MOST but not all monitors/TVs.
  • USB to TTL serial cable
    • CM3 IO board exports a dedicated serial console for CPU, which can access the low level debug message.
  • Micro USB cable
    • If you want write image to CM3 eMMC from USB OTG port or use fastboot/adb commands you need a micro USB cable to connect CM3 IO board and PC.

Power on

Plug in the 12V DC, the CM3 should automatically boot. If the CM3 doesn't have eMMC or the eMMC is empty, plug in the micro USB to host PC, host PC should detect the CM3 in maskrom mode.

Install image to CM3

USB 3.0

There is one USB 3.0 A port on the IO board, supporting 5.0Gbps. The USB 3.0 function is shared with SATA2, a 1in->2out mux CH482D is used for function switching to USB 3.0 or SATA2. GPIO3_C7 is used for the route select, When GPIO3_C7 is low, signal route to USB3.0, when GPIO3_C7 is high, signal route to SATA2.

Current output limit for the USB 3.0 is 2A.

PCIe Slot

There is one PCIe x1 slot on the IO board, supporting 5.0Gbps. The PCIe function is shared with SATA1, a 1in->2out mux CH482D is used for function switching to PCIe or SATA1. GPIO3_C6 is used for the route select, When GPIO3_C6 is low, signal route to PCIe, when GPIO3_C6 is high, signal route to SATA1.

The PCIe on the CM3 meets PCIe 2.1 specification and support one lane and Root Complex mode only. PCIe slot power is directly from +12V DC, make sure the power supply can provide enough current for the PCIe card.

SATA1&2

IO board has two SATA ports compatible with Serial ATA 3.3 and AHCI Revision 1.3.1, SATA 1 is shared with USB 3.0 and SATA 2 is shared with PCIe, set the corresponding signal route to use it. Connector U28 can be used for SATA power, the +12V of U28 is directly from the +12V DC, make sure the power supply can provide enough current for the HDD.

Micro USB

The Micro USB port on the IO board supports host and device mode, it's used for firmware installing to eMMC from host PC or using ADB debugging. Note: When in maskrom mode, the USB OTG is forced in device mode.

Other Pinout

Refer Other connector pinout.
