DIP switches. This 5-switch Dual Inline Package (DIP) allows you
1
to set the CPU external frequency.
2 ATX 12V connector. This power connector is for the 4-pin 12V
plug from an ATX 12V power supply.
3
CPU socket. A 478-pin surface mount, Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
socket for the Intel
bus that allows 3.2GB/s data transfer rate.
4
North bridge controller. The Intel
Controller Hub (GMCH) provides the processor interface with
400MHz frequency, system memory interface at 100MHz operation.
The integrated graphics accelerator delivers 3D/2D video
capabilities and a high bandwidth access to graphics data in the
system memory at 2.2GB/s or 1.6GB/s. The GMCH interconnects
to the south bridge ICH4 via the Intel
DDR DIMM sockets. These two 184-pin DIMM sockets support up
5
to 2GB using unbuffered non-ECC PC2100/1600 DDR DIMMs.
ATX power connector. This 20-pin connector connects to an ATX
6
+12V power supply. The power supply must have at least 1A on the
+5V standby lead (+5VSB).
Super I/O controller. This Low Pin Count (LPC) interface provides
7
the commonly used Super I/O functionality. The chipset supports a
high-performance floppy disk controller for a 360K/720K/1.44M/
2.88M floppy disk drive, a multi-mode parallel port, two standard
compatible UARTs, a Standard Infrared (SIR), one MPU-401 UART
mode compatible MIDI/game interface, and a Smart Card Reader
interface.
Floppy disk connector. This connector accommodates the
8
provided ribbon cable for the floppy disk drive. One side of the
connector is slotted to prevent incorrect insertion of the floppy disk
cable.
IDE connectors. These dual-channel bus master IDE connectors
9
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.
