SIM socket ?
|
By itself the SIM socket does not do anything. You need a 3G modem in the
miniPCI express socket to get connectivity. |
miniPCI Express ?
|
This is a new standard for small size radio modules, using PCI Express
and USB 2.0 connectivity. On ALIX, only USB 2.0 connectivity is supported.
Some manufacturers of radio modules:
- Ericsson
- Novatel
- Option
- Sierra Wireless
- wi-fi cards using PCI express will NOT work !
- 3G Modem modules based on Qualcomm chipsets (most on the market)
don't work reliably with the AMD CS5536 USB controller unless the USB rate
is limited to 12 Mb/s !!! Please see our support forum or contact our
technical support for more detailed instructions. Some
Ericsson modules don't observe the reset signal, difficult to get a proper
reset on warm reboot.

BIOS update note
|
Board ID has been changed, flash updater will look for alix5.bin . Latest BIOS
= v0.99m. |
alix6j changes from alix6i
|
- Change power enable for U7 / U11 regulators (ECN 057).
|
alix6i changes from alix6f
|
- Add common mode choke on DC input to reduce line conducted noise on DC cable.
- Streamline power system using modern silicon.
- Use current capacitor / resistor sizes.
- Many small optimizations to reduce EMI emissions.
|
alix6f changes from alix6e
|
- Enhance resistance to injected RF energy.
- Change chassis ground connections to enhance resistance to ESD / burst.
- Disconnect miniPCI express pins 30 and 32 (SMBDAT / SMBCLK).
- Reset controlled by USBEN2.
- Shift miniPCI connector to fit larger Wifi modules (dcma82 / dnma92).
