CPU socket. A 478-pin surface mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
1
socket called mPGA478 B. This socket accommodates the Intel
Pentium
4 478/Northwood Processor with 400MHz system bus.
®
North bridge controller. This controller called the Intel Memory
2
Controller Hub (MCH) is one of the two major components of the
Intel 845 (Brookdale) chipset. The MCH along with the south bridge
Intel I/O Controller Hub 2 (ICH2) are interconnected through the
Intel proprietary Hub interface. The MCH provides the processor
interface, system memory interface, AGP interface, and Hub
Interface.
SDRAM DIMM sockets. These three 168-pin DIMM sockets
3
support up to 3GB using unbuffered ECC or non-ECC PC100/133
SDRAM DIMMs.
ATX power connector. This 20-pin connector connects to an ATX
4
12V power supply. The power supply must have at least 1A on the
+5V standby lead (+5VSB).
Floppy disk connector. This connector accommodates the
5
provided ribbon cable for the floppy disk drive. One side of the
connector is slotted to prevent incorrect insertion of the floppy disk
cable.
ASUS EZ Plug™ Auxilliary +12V connector. This ASUS patented
6
auxilliary power connector is used if you don't have an ATX +12V
power supply. Connect a 4-pin device connector from a standard
power supply to this connector to provide sufficient power to the
CPU.
IDE connectors. These dual-channel bus master IDE connectors
7
support up to four Ultra DMA/100/66, PIO Modes 3 & 4 IDE
devices. Both the primary (blue) and secondary (black) connectors
are slotted to prevent incorrect insertion of the IDE ribbon cable.
AGP slot. This Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) slot supports 1.5V
8
AGP4X mode graphics cards for 3D graphical applications.
AGP warning LED. Serving as a smart burn-out protection for the
9
motherboard, this red LED lights up if you plug in any 3.3V AGP
card into the AGP slot. When this LED is lit, there is no way you
can turn on the system power even if you press the power button.
(The AGP LED feature is present on PCB R1.05 or later versions.)
