MOTHERBOARD DESCRIPTION

1-1 INTRODUCTION

The SY-7VCA2 AGP/PCI/AMR Motherboard is a high-performance

Socket 370 supported ATX form-factor system board. The SY-7VCA2

uses VIA Chipset technology and supports Socket 370 class processors.

This Motherboard is fully compatible with industry standards and adds

many technical enhancements.

1-2 KEY FEATURES

ØCPU SUPPORT

The SY-7VCA2 supports a wide range of INTEL CPUs:

nFSB 66MHz: Celeron(400-700MHz)

nFSB 100MHz: Pentium® III (500-850MHz)

nFSB 133MHz: Pentium® III (533MHz-1.13GHz)

Supports Via Cyrix processors

nFSB 100MHz: Cyrix III (500MHz-600MHz)

nFSB 133MHz: Cyrix III (533MHz-600MHz)

New released Intel Socket 370 CPUs will very likely be supported by the

SY-7VCA2 as well.

ØCPU SETTINGS

The SY-7VCA2 provides the user with a very complete and convenient

CPU setting environment. The CPU settings are all adjusted through the

special SOYO COMBO page in the BIOS, therefore rendering the use of

jumpers obsolete.

nCPU FSB Frequency

The SY-7VCA2 supports an incredible wide range of CPU FSB frequency

settings:

66, 75, 81, 83, 90, 95, 100, 105, 110, 112, 113, 115, 117, 118, 120, 122,

124, 126, 133, 135, 137, 138, 140, 142, 144, 150 and 155 MHz.

This ensures that the SY-7VCA2 has an overwhelming overclocking potential.

Motherboard Description SY-7VCA2

nCPU Multiplier

The SY-7VCA2 supports a wide range of multipliers:

2.0x, 2.5x, 3.0x, 3.5x, 4.0x, 4.5x, 5.0x, 5.5x, 6.0x, 6.5x, 7.0x, 7.5x and

8.0x

ØEXPANDABILITY

The SY-7VCA2 provides all the standard expansion slots, and many more

additional expansion features:

uExpansion slots

n1 x 32-bit bus master AGP slot

n5 x 32-bit bus master PCI slots

n1 x 16-bit ISA slots

uEnhanced IO

nFloppy disk controller

n2x EIDE controllers with support for up to 4 Ultra DMA 33/66

/100 devices

nStandard/EPP/ECP parallel port

n2x 16550 compatible serial ports

nIrDA compatible infrared port

n4x USB (Universal Serial Bus) connectors

nPS/2 mouse connector

nPS/2 keyboard connector

Motherboard Description SY-7VCA2

ØADVANCED FUNCTIONS

The SY-7VCA2 supports advanced functions such as:

nWake-On-LAN

Supports Wake-On-LAN (Some advanced network cards can

wake the system up over the network, the WOL connector is

provided by the SY-7VCA2 to support this function).

nMultiple boot

The SY-7VCA2 supports booting from devices such as CD-ROM.

nPower on by modem or alarm

If the SY-7VCA2 system is in suspend mode, it can be switched back

on through the modem or RTC alarm through this function. This

opens a lot of possibilities, such as remote access that switches the

system on only after the modem receives a call.

ØFAIL SAFE

The SY-7VCA2 comes with added functionality to make managing the

system easy and safe

uHardware Monitor

The integrated Hardware Monitor IC and Hardware doctor software

enables the user to monitor system voltages, temperatures and FAN speeds.

This makes sure that the user is full control of the system

uPower Failure Resume Function

This function can be set in the BIOS, and determines whether the system

will automatically turn on again after a power failure. This function is

indispensable for server systems that need to always be on line.

u5VSB Indicator

This green LED gives an indication of the presence of the 5V Standby

voltage. This voltage is always fed into the motherboard and is used for

functions such as WOL.

1-3 HANDLING THE MOTHERBOARD

To avoid damage to your Motherboard, follow these simple rules while

unpacking:

ØBefore handling the Motherboard, ground yourself by grasping an

unpainted portion of the system's metal chassis.

ØRemove the Motherboard from its anti-static packaging. Hold the

Motherboard by the edges and avoid touching its components.

ØCheck the Motherboard for damage. If any chip appears loose, press

carefully to seat it firmly in its socket.

Warning: Do not apply power if the Motherboard appears

damaged. If there is damage to the board, contact your dealer

immediately.

1-4 ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE PRECAUTIONS

Make sure to ground yourself before handling the Motherboard or other

system components. Electrostatic discharge can easily damage the

components. Note that you must take special precautions when handling

the Motherboard in dry or air-conditioned environment.

To protect your equipment from electrostatic discharge, take the following

precautions:

ØDo not remove the anti-static packaging until you are ready to install.

ØGround yourself before removing any system component from its

protective anti-static packaging. (To ground yourself, grasp the expansion

slot covers or other unpainted portions of the computer chassis.)

ØFrequently ground yourself while working or use a grounding strap.

ØHandle the Motherboard by its edges and avoid touching its

components.
