  • New in hardware version v1.5a / firmware version v1.9:
    • "X,Y" LCD command to allow partial updates of the LCD
    • 115,200 baud supported
    • Advanced digital GPIO control with PWM output
    • Application note on connecting DS1963S SHA ibutton
  • Compact and fully integrated user interface for "Communication Appliance" applications
  • LED backlit STN 16x2 LCD
  • Integrated LED backlit 6-button translucent silicon keypad with screened legend
  • Bi-directional 19200/115200 baud ESD protected RS-232 interface
  • Robust packet based communications protocol with 16-bit CRC
  • Compact size: fits in a 1U rack mount case (35mm overall height)
  • ATX power supply control functionality allows the buttons on the CFA-633 to replace the "power" and "reset" buttons on your system, simplifying your front panel design

  • Four fan connectors with RPM monitoring or variable PWM fan power control
  • "Fail-Safe" fan power setting allows safe host fan control based on temperature
  • Temperature monitoring: up to 32 channels at up to 0.5 deg C absolute accuracy. Ready-to-use WRDOWY17 Dallas Semiconductor 1-Wire temperature sensors are optional. Alternatively, you can create your own sensors using DS1822 or DS18B20 parts and the tutorial on creating temperature sensors.
  • Non-volatile memory ("EEPROM") capability: Customize the "power-on" display settings plus a 16-byte "scratch" register for storing IP, netmask, system serial number, etc.
  • RS-232 to Dallas Semiconductor 1-Wire bridge functionality allows control of other 1-Wire compatible devices (ADC, voltage monitoring, current monitoring, RTC, GPIO, counters, identification/encryption, additional hardware required)
  • Available in a 5.25" half-height LCD drive bay kit, (see mounting bracket photos)
  • Available with USB interface

Date Issued: August 12, 2010
Last revision: 1.5a
Summary: We will be phasing in the CFA-633 hardware version v1.5c over the next few months as the inventory of v1.5a modules is exhausted.
Description: The currently shipping version of the CFA-633 hardware is v1.5a.

Here is a list of the changes between v1.5a and v1.5c:

* Changed from black painted steel plated bezel to stainless steel bezel. Your front panel bezel should hide the bezel, so this change should not affect the appearance of your product. If your product design exposes part of the CFA-633's black bezel, that area will now show as stainless steel.
* Increased keep-out clearance on PCB around the mounting holes.
* Minor PCB layout changes.
* Some factory configuration jumpers have changed.
Impact: The v1.5c should be a drop-in replacement for any v1.5a application.
Recommendation: If you currently have a semi-custom part number based on v1.5a, we will need to issue a new semi-custom part number based on the v1.5c platform.
Availability: 0-2 months

Date Issued: June 6, 2010
Summary: Keypad height change
Description: Over the next 6 months or so, we will be transitioning to a keypad that is 1.5mm taller than the keypad currently shipping on these modules.
Reason: We have found that in all cases that we are aware of, the keypad being 1.5mm taller will alleviate some customer difficulties.
Recommendation: If you need the keypad to remain the same height for your application, please email support@crystalfontz.com so that we can set aside some of the shorter keypads for your company's application.
Availability: ~0-6 months.
Price Change: None.
