9 3. Display Configuration The MXM module, using the AMD Radeon HD 7970 GPU, provides flexibility for display configurations briefly explained here. If you do not use the default display settings, you will need a custom video BIOS. Contact Supplier technical support channel first for changes to the display settings Default Display Settings Dual-Link DVI-D (GPU display controllers DP E + DP F) Only 2 legacy displays are active at the same time Single-Link DVI-I (GPU display controllers DP A + CRT) Only 2 legacy displays are active at the same time HDMI (GPU display controller DP C) Only 2 legacy displays are active at the same time DisplayPort v1.2 (GPU display controller DP D) Note: Legacy displays are CRT, DVI or HDMI displays Optional Display Setting The MXM module can be configured with LVDS_U* and LVDS_L* (DP E + DP F) as single or dual-link LVDS, up to two single or one dual-link DVI, one HDMI or up to two DisplayPort v1.1 outputs. The MXM module description of DP_A, DP_B, DP_C, and DP_D (corresponding DP A, DP C, DP B, DP D respectively for GPU descriptions) can be configured as single-link DVI, HDMI or DisplayPort v1.2. Only a maximum of two legacy displays (CRT, DVI or HDMI) can be displayed at the same time. Only one HDMI will be output (one audio codec only). Examples of possible configurations in addition to the default settings: 1. Single-link LVDS + single-link DVI-I + 4 DisplayPorts 2. Single-link LVDS + HDMI + 4 DisplayPorts 3. Single-link LVDS + 5 DisplayPorts 4. Dual-Link LVDS + 4 DisplayPorts 5. 6 DisplayPorts 6. Dual-link DVI-D + single DVI-I + 3 DisplayPorts Note: Legacy displays are CRT, DVI or HDMI displays.

11 5. Electrical Specifications Refer to the MXM electrical specifications outlined in the publicly available MXM Graphics Module Mobile PCI Express Module Electromechanical Specification Version 3.1, Revision 1.0 ( Some pins are different than in the specification. Refer to the pin descriptions. 5.1 PCI Express Support The module supports up to 16 bidirectional PCI Express differential signaling lanes (x1, x2, x4, x8, and x16). It is compliant with PCI Express Base Specification 3.1, except for power delivery and power management. Embedded system power requirements supersede PCI Express power specifications. Hot plug insertion is not supported. 5.2 Electrical Connector Provides the connector pin assignment for the module. Note that some pins are different compared to the MXM Graphics Module Mobile PCI Express Module Electromechanical Specification Version 3.1, Revision 1.0 ( REV 0.1 Page 11 of 19 September 4, 2013

16 6. Electrical Exceptions 6.1. VGA When driving stereoscopic 3D displays AMD designs make use of the stereo-sync (generic a/b) signal to differentiate between the left and right scene. This is implemented on OEM2 (MXM pin 40) LVDS LVDS Implementation in AMD Designs The HD 7970M MXM differs from MXM 3.1 spec in the implementation of LVDS, specifically on the pull-ups on the DDC lines and the MXM connector pin used for hot plug detect. AMD recommends that the 4.7K PU to 3.3V on LVDS DDC lines be placed on the motherboard side allowing the channel to be used for edp/dp or LVDS. This adds flexibility and simplifies display qualification. To have more control over the display configuration, AMD designs make use of OEM3 (MXM pin 41) for DDCDATA_AUX7N (DPF) and OEM5 (MXM pin 43) for DDCCLK_AUX7P (DPF).

18 7.2. Power Consumption 7.3. Power Sequencing The power sequencing for this board requires that the 5VRUN (+5V) and the PWR_SRC (+20V) come up before or at the same time as 3V3RUN (3.3V). Voltage tolerances are +/-5%.Layout Guidelines Refer to the MXM Graphics Module, MXM Version 3.1 System Design Guide ( for detailed layout requirements on the system board.
