AX6LC implements many special features as following:
Jumper-less Design Pentium II VID signal and SMbus clock generator provide CPU voltage
auto-detection and allows user to set CPU frequency through CMOS setup, no jumper or switch is
needed.
Full-range CPU core voltage This motherboard supports the CPU core voltage from 1.3V to
3.5V, that can be applied to various CPU type in future.
Battery-less Motherboard AX6LC implements EEPROM and special circuit (patent applied) that
allows you to save your current CPU and CMOS Setup configurations without the need of battery.
The RTC (real time clock) can also keep running as long as power cord is plugged.
Suspend to Hard Drive This function saves your work to HDD and resumes within a short time.
Zero Voltage Modem Wake Up Through this feature, it is possible to have system totally power
off and wakeup to automatically answer a phone call, such as answering machine or to
send/receive fax.
RTC Wake Up Timer Program the date/time to wake up your system.
Over-current Protection CPU over-current protection to prevent any accident short circuit.
CPU Thermal Protection Warning when CPU temperature is higher than a predefined value.
Fan Monitoring Two fan connectors, warning when CPU or housing fan is malfunction.
System Voltage Monitoring This design will monitor your system working voltage continuously.
Switching Regulator High efficient switching regulator for future CPU.
75/83.3MHz External Clock
clock. Please note that it is user's risk to do over-clocking.
PCI Sound Card connector If you have a Creative-compatible PCI sound card, it is necessary to
link the card to this connector for compatibility issu under DOS environment.
FCC DoC certificate AX6LC has passed FCC DoC test. The radiation is very low, you can use
any kind of housing.
Note: This Quick Installation Guide is only for quick reference. For more information,
please see the User's manual.

Summary of Contents for AOpen AX6LC

  • Page 1 PCI Sound Card connector If you have a Creative-compatible PCI sound card, it is necessary to link the card to this connector for compatibility issu under DOS environment. FCC DoC certificate AX6LC has passed FCC DoC test. The radiation is very low, you can use any kind of housing.
  • Page 2 HDD is tested OK for PIIX4. Battery-less Motherboard To preserve the earth, AOpen AX6LC implements the world first battery-less motherboard design. There is no need to have battery for RTC (real time clock) and CMOS Setup as long as ATX power cable is plugged. In case of the AC power is shutdown or power cord is removed by accident, the CMOS Setup and system configuration can be restored from EEPROM, only the system clock needed to be re-set to current date/time.
  • Page 3 When CPU temperature is higher than a predefined value, the CPU speed will automatically slow down and the PC speaker will beep. To work with this feature, AOpen software team develope an Hardware Monitor Utility, which can help you monitor the CPU temperature and voltage.
  • Page 4 How to Upgrade BIOS? To upgrade your BIOS, please follow the steps as below: 1. Get new BIOS binary file from AOpen's web site. For example, AX6LC120.BIN. 2. Bootup the system from floppy without loading any memory handler (such as EMM386) or device driver.
