Introducing the Mainboard

Thank you for choosing the L4S8M mainboard. The L4S8M mainboard is a

high–performance, enhanced function mainboard that supports Socket 478

Pentium 4 processors with system speeds up to 533MHz for high-end busi-

ness or personal desktop markets.

The mainboard incorporates the SiS648 Northbridge and SiS963/SiS963L

Southbridge chipsets. The SiS648 Northbridge chipset provides a 12-level In-

Order-Queue to support maximum outstanding transactions on host up to 12.

The memory controller offers high-bandwidth up to 2.7GB/s under DDR333 in

order to sustain the bandwidth demand from the host processor, as well as the

multi I/O masters and AGP masters. While the SiS963 Southbridge integrates

the Universal Serial Bus 2.0 Host Controllers, 1394a (except for SiS963L) and

Audio Controller withAC 97 interface.

The L4S8M is designed to give customers an advanced, multimedia solution

and state-of-the-art technology. It provides a versatile range of I/O features,

such as dual channel IDE interfaces, a floppy controller, two high-speed serial

port, an EPP/ECP capable bi-directional parallel port connector, four USB

(Universal Serial Bus) connector, a PS/2 keyboard, 1394a connectors, mouse

connectors and audio jacks for microphone, line-in and line-out. One AGP slot

and three PCI local bus slots which provide expandability for add-on periph-

eral cards.

Compare the mainboard’s package contents with the following checklist:

Standard Items

• One mainboard

• One diskette drive ribbon cable

• One IDE drive ribbon cable

• One auto-install software support CD

• One I/O panel

• One cooling fan retention module

• This user’s manual

Processor The L4S8M mainboard uses a micro PGA 478-pin socket that

has the following features:

• Supports 400/533 MHz system bus

• Supports “Hyper-Threading” technology CPU

• Accommodates Pentium 4 processors at 1.5G/1.6G/1.7G…

3.06G and above

“Hyper-Threading” technology enables the operating system

into thinking it’s hooked up to two processors, allowing two

threads to be run in parallel, both on separate ‘logical’ proces-

sors within the same physical processor.

Chipset The SiS648 and SiS963/963L chipsets are based on an inno-

vative and scalable architecture with proven reliability and

performance. A few of the chipset’s advanced features are:

• Supports Intel Pentium 4 series CPU with data transfer

rate up to 533MHz

• Support 12 outstanding transactions and out-of-order

completion

• Supports 64-bit high performance DDR333/DDR266

Memory Controller

• Universal AGP v3.0 compliant and supports AGP 8X/4X

Interface with Fast Write Transaction

• Distributed arbitration strategy with long contiguous data

streaming up to 1GB/s

• PCI 2.2 specification compliance

• Integrated multi-threaded I/O link mastering with read

pipelined streaming

• Supports Ultra DMA 33/66/100/133

Additional key features include support for six USB 2.0 ports,

Fast Ethernet MAC controller, AC97 interface, IEEE 1394 host

controller (except for SiS963L Southbridge chipset), advanced

power management, integrated DMA controller and keyboard

controller.

Memory • Supports DDR SDRAM up to 200/266/333 MHz memory

module

• Accommodates two unbuffered 2.5V 184-pin slots

• Each slot supports up to 1 GB with a total maximum

capacity of 2 GB

Graphics The L4S8M includes an AGP slot that provides eight times the

bandwidth of the original AGP specification. The AGP 3.0

(8xAGP) offers a significant increase in performance along

with feature enhancements to AGP2.0. This interface repre-

sents the natural evolution from the existing AGP to meet the

ever-increasing demands placed on the graphic interfaces

within the workstation and desktop environments.

Audio The AC’ 97 Audio codec is compliant with the AC’ 97 2.2

specification, and supports 18-bit ADC (Analog Digital Con-

verter) and DAC (Digital Analog Converter) resolution as well

as 18-bit stereo full-duplex codec with independent and vari-

able sampling rates. Further features include support for four

analog line-level stereo inputs.

Note: Optional 6-channel audio controller

Expansion

Options The mainboard comes with the following expansion options:

• Three 32-bit PCI slots

• One AGP slot (supports 1.5V AGP card only)

• Two IDE connectors which support four IDE channels and

a floppy disk drive interface

The L4S8M supports Ultra DMA bus mastering with transfer

rates of 33/66/100/133 MB/sec.

USB The USB 2.0 Controller is compliant with Universal Serial Bus

Specification Revision 2.0.

The USB 2.0 supports data transfer rates up to 480MB/sec for

high-speed devices and specifies a microframe that will be

1/8th of a 1msec frame. This allows the USB 2.0 devices to

have small buffers even at high data rates.

The USB 1.1 connectors and other full speed cables can sup-

port the higher speed of USB 2.0 without any changes.

The chipset has the following advanced USB features:

• Compliant with Enhanced Host Controller Interface

(EHCI) Specification Revision 0.95 and Universal Host

Controller Interface (UHCI) Specification Revision 1.1

• PCI multi-function device consists of two UHCI Host

Controllers for full/low-speed signaling and one EHCI Host

Controller core for high-speed signaling

• Supports PCI-Bus Power Management Interface Speci-

fication release 1.1

• Legacy support for all downstream facing ports

Onboard LAN

(optional) The RTL8100B(L) is a highly integrated and cost-effective

single-chip Fast Ethernet controller. It is enhanced with an

ACPI (Advanced Configuration Power Interface) management

function for PCI in order to provide efficient power manage-

ment for advanced operating systems with OSPM (Operating

System Directed Power Management)

It provides the mainboard with 10/100Mbps fast Ethernet con-

troller and integrated Ethernet PCI LAN capabilities.

IEEE 1394A Con-

troller Interface

(optional)

• Fully support provisions of IEEE1394-1995 for High- Per-

formance Serial Bus and the P1394a draft 2.0 standard

• Provides one compliant cable port at 100Mbits/s,

200Mbits/s, and 400Mbits/s

• Supports arbitrated short bus reset to improve utilization

of the bus

• Data interface to link-layer controller provided through

2/4/8 parallel lines at 50Mbits/s

• Support power-down feature to conserve energy in bat-

tery powered applications

Integrated I/O The mainboard has a full set of I/O ports and connectors:

• Two PS/2 ports for mouse and keyboard

• Two serial port

• One parallel port

• Four USB ports

• One 1394 port (optional)

• One LAN port (optional)

• Audio jacks for microphone, line-in and line-out

BIOS

Firmware This mainboard uses Award BIOS that enables users to con-

figure many system features including the following:

• Power management

• Wake-up alarms

• CPU parameters

• CPU and memory timing

The firmware can also be used to set parameters for different

processor clock speeds.

There are many types of computer cases on the market. The mainboard com-

plies with the specifications for the micro-ATX system case. Some features on

the mainboard are implemented by cabling connectors on the mainboard to

indicators and switches on the system case. Ensure that your case supports

all the features required. The mainboard can support one or two floppy disk-

ette drives and four enhanced IDE drives. Ensure that your case has sufficient

power and space for all the drives that you intend to install.

Most cases have a choice of I/O templates in the rear panel. Make sure that

the I/O template in the case matches the I/O ports installed on the rear edge

of the mainboard.

This mainboard has a micro-ATX form factor of 244 x 244 mm. Choose a case

that accommodates this form factor.
