System Board

System Board 1-1

1.1 Features

This high-performance system board is designed to support the Intel

P54C and P55C CPUs running at 75/100/120/133/150/166/200 MHz.

It utilizes both the EISA and the PCI local bus architecture. Three

EISA and four PCI bus slots reside on the board to allow installation

of either master or slave devices, except for one PCI slot that

supports only slave devices.

The board has three memory banks composed of two 72-pin SIMM

sockets each that support a maximum system memory of 192 MB

using 32-MB SIMMs. The SIMM sockets support both EDO and fast-

page mode SIMMs. A second-level cache socket is available for a

256-KB or 512-KB synchronous SRAM module.

A 50-pin Fast SCSI-II interface with 10 MB/s transfer rate and a 68-

pin Wide SCSI interface that transfers at 20 MB/s (Wide SCSI) and

40 MB/s (Ultra SCSI) come with the system board to connect SCSI

devices. Standard I/O features such as two serial interfaces (COM1,

COM2), one parallel port interface, an IDE drive interface, a diskette

drive interface, and PS/2 mouse and keyboard connectors reside on

the system board.

The system board supports two optional features, the ASM Pro and

the Remote Diagnostic Management (RDM) for better server

management. These features maximize the system operating time

by minimizing the downtime.

1.4 ESD Precautions

Always observe the following ESD (electrostatic discharge)

precautions before installing any system component:

1. Do not remove any system component from its packaging unless

you are ready to install it.

2. Wear a wrist grounding strap before handling electronic

components. Wrist grounding straps are available at most

electronic component stores.

DO NOT attempt the procedures in the

following sections unless you are confident of

your capability to perform them. Otherwise,

ask a service technician for assistance.

1.5 Installing a VGA Daughter Board

The system board comes with a video controller, a video connector,

and a VGA daughter board. These components save you the trouble

of buying a video board and save one bus slot for another expansion

board. The daughter board carries an external video port.

To install, simply plug-in the daughter board into CN13 and secure

the bracket with a screw.

1.6 CPU Upgrade

The system board comes with a zero-insertion force (ZIF) CPU socket

for easy installation.

Follow these steps to install a Pentium CPU:

1. Pull up the socket lever.

2. Insert the CPU, making sure that the pin 1 of the CPU connects

to pin 1 of the socket.

Be careful not to bend any pins.

3. Pull down the socket lever.
