Introduction of IT5 Series Features 1-1

Chapter 1 Introduction of IT5

Series Features

The IT5 series has been especially designed for File server,

Workstation and Professional users. It can support a wide range of

processors, including all Intel CPUs (P54C) and Intel CPUs with MMX

(P55C), as well as all AMD-K5 and Cyrix 6x86/6x86L CPUs. It also takes

into account, as much as possible, all future CPUs.

This series uses SOFT MENU™technology, which means that all the

parameters can be configured without using DIP switches or jumpers.

The configuration is entirely achieved through a “Soft Switch”that allows

the user to set CPU speed and operating voltage with ease.

The IT5 series uses Intel 430VX and 430HX series chipsets, and has

256K or 512K Level-2 Pipeline Burst SRAM on board. It also provides

an extension slot allowing the user to upgrade Pipeline Burst SRAM to

512K.

Two 168-pin DIMM slots and four 72-pin SIMM slots meet the

requirements for all memory configurations required by high level

computing. The 168-pin DIMM slots support traditional Fast Page and

EDO DRAM as a memory standard for next generation 64-bit systems.

The two 168-pin DIMM slots have been reserved to meet requirements for

both present and future upgrades.

This series also provides two Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports and

meets the Concurrent PCI Rev. 2.1 standard. It also supports IDE

interface for Fast HDD (Mode 0~4), as well as IDE Bus Master. These

features also meet present and future interface standards and needs.

System BIOS features include Plug-and-Play (PnP), Advanced Power

Management (APM), the newest Desktop Management Interface (DMI), as

well as IT5’s unique CPU operating frequency and voltage setup feature in

order to meet modern computing demands.
