Data Center Secure Control Module (DC-SCM) Breakout Board

Copyright (c) 2020-2023 Antmicro

Overview

This project contains open hardware design files for a breakout board exposing IO interfaces offered by Data Center Secure Control Modules (DC-SCM). This board aids software development and allows for initial testing of the DC-SCM before installing it in a server. This board is compatible with Antmicro's experimental DC-SCM cards:

• AMD-Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA based Artix DC-SCM
• Lattice ECP-5 FPGA based ECP5 DC-SCM

Project structure

The main directory contains the KiCad PCB project files, LICENSE and README. The remaining files are stored in the following directories:

• img - contains graphics for this README
• lib - contains KiCad component libraries for the project
• doc - contains additional documentation generated from the project files

The design files were prepared in KiCad 5.x

Key features

• Expansion connector compatible with 168-pin DC-SCM horizontal cards
• USB 2.0 (type-A) connector for testing USB host controllers
• Micro USB 2.0 connector for testing USB client controllers
• Micro USB 2.0 connector with serial console break-routed from one of the DC-SCM UART ports
• PCIe x1 edge connector
• DC barrel jack
• Pin headers exposing low speed IO interfaces offered by DC-SCM modules (I2C, UART, SPI, QSPI etc.)
