AWARD BIOS
high efficient synchronous switching design that the temperature of MOS FET
is far less than Schottky diode of asynchronous design.
Over Current Protection The Over Current Protection was very popular
implemented on the Baby AT or ATX 3.3V/5V/12V switching power supply.
However, the new generation Celeron PPGA CPU uses different voltage that
have regulator to transfer 5V to CPU voltage (for example, 2.0V), and make
5V over current protection useless. MX3W-V with switching regulator onboard
support CPU over current protection, in conjunction with 3.3V/5V/12V power
supply provide the full line over current protection.
CPU and Housing Fan Monitoring This motherboard has one more "fan
monitoring" function to prevent system overheat. There are two fan
connectors. One is for the CPU and the other can be an extra housing fan.
The system will report an alarm fan malfunction through utility software such
as Hardware Monitoring Utility.
CPU Thermal Protection MX3W-V has a special thermal detection circuit to
have warning through application software when the temperature is higher
than a predefined value.
System Voltage Monitoring Further more, MX3W-V implements a voltage
monitoring system, As you turn on your system, this smart design will
continue to monitor your system working voltage. If any of the system voltage
is over the component's standard. There will be alarm though utility software
such as Hardware Monitor utility (Small Icon for Hardware Monitoring) for a
warning to user.
Full-range CPU core voltage This motherboard supports the CPU core
voltage from 1.3V to 2.05V, that can be applied to various CPU type in future.
Resetable Fuse This motherboard implements resetable fuses to prevent any
accidental short circuit caused by keyboard or USB devices hot plug.
FCC DoC certificate MX3W-V has passed FCC DoC test. The radiation is
very low, you can use any kind of housing.
Powerful Utility Software AOpen Bonus Pack CD disc contains many useful
utilities, such as Norton Antivirus, AOchip, Hardware Monitoring utility, and
Suspend to Hard Drive utility.
