Introduction

This user manual is intended to assist board-designers who consider developing a custom NIO for SolidRun Bedrock SOM.

...

Each section of this manual provides detailed information and technical specifications to help you understand the interfaces, pinouts, and schematic design principles necessary for successful integration. Additionally, we provide best practices and expert tips to mitigate common design challenges and optimize your development process.

Please note that Port 9 (Lanes: 17-20) are used for the SoM’s Internal NVME.

...

  • Memory: DDR5 Dual 64BG Channels, Support Up to DDR5-5600.

  • USB:
    2x USB4 (40 Gbps) - Supports USB-C Alt-Mode.
    2x USB 3.2 Gen2 (10 Gbps).
    4x USB2.0

  • Display:

Bedrock Cartridge

As part of developing a custom extension board for the Bedrock SOM, it’s recommended to use Bedrock Cartridge.

...

  • Highly effective 1st stage thermal coupling (TIM0) to the Ryzen die to a copper heatplate.
    Coupling the heatplate to a heatsink/cold-plate is easy. Coupling the die is challenging.

  • Provision for mounting NIO securely with accurate spacing.

  • Easy mounting of SOM to enclosure / heatsink / cold-plate.

  • Thermal coupling for SOM’s DC-to-DC converters

  • Mounting of NVME SSD
    Not present on SOM itself

  • Securing and thermal coupling for SODIMMs

  • RTC battery compartment

  • Physical protection and rigidity to the SOM

  • Rigid chassis for the Bedrock Deck with multiple threaded mounting holes

Note: Top Side of SoM is placed on Top Side of NIO, where the two boards are flipped one towards the other.

Board-to-board Connectors Pin-out

The following is an example of the B2B pinout in NIO.
Please note that the pinout relates to the female connectors on a carrier, to which the Bedrock SoM male Connectors are inserted, and here we gave an example for SolidRun NIO Connectors (J4, J5, J6, J7). It’s important to be careful which pin is number #1.

OrCad Symbols

In the following link you will find a PDF and OrCad Symbols for the NIO board-to-board connectors, to which the SoM (Male) Connectors are inserted: 

  1. NIO BtB Connectors - PDF

  2. NIO BtB Connectors - OrCad Symbols

Differential Signals Impedance

In this Excel, you will find a list for the impedance for each differential signal. 

Note: All differential pairs are 90-Ohm, the rest are GPIOs/Single-Ended signals which are 50-Ohm by default.

Thermal coupling

First stage thermal coupling in cartridge

...

  • Thermal grease should be applied on heatplate. Heatplate should be attached to a cold plate.

  • Thermal pad should be applied on NVME

  • If device is intended to work at high ambient temperature it is advised to apply thermal gel between SODIMMs and RAM cover and thermal grease on top side of RAM cover

  • The frame of the skirt is thermally coupled to the cold plate. Consider applying thermal paste on the frame of the skirt.

...

Power Consumption

SmartShift Technology for Optimized Power Management

...

Note: the measurements were performed with 19V input voltage.


Power Input

The recommended input range for the SoM is 12V-24V.

Note

Note: there is no reverse polarity protection on the SoM, please be careful not to confuse between the “+” and “-” signs. (Red is Positive “+, Black is Negative “-”)

...

SolidRun uses Molex 1053071202 Connector to interface between the SoM power input and the Phoenix Connecter.
