X11SCA/-W/-F User Manual

1.2 Processor and Chipset Overview

Built upon the functionality and capability of the Intel Xeon®-E, Core i3, Celeron, and Pentium
series processors (Socket LGA 1151) and the Intel C246, the X11SCA/-W/-F motherboard
offers maximum I/O expandability, energy efficiency, and data reliability in a 14-nm process
architecture. It is optimized for all workstation applications, for example, 3D modeling,
rendering, video editing, engineering simulation, and automation.
The Intel Xeon®-E and PCH C246 platform supports the following features:
•
ACPI Power Management
•
Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, Power Monitoring/Power Control, and Platform Power
Control
•
Adaptive Thermal Management/Monitoring
•
PCI-E 3.0, SATA 3.0 with transfer rates of up to 6 Gb/s, xHCI USB w/SuperSpeed 3.1
•
System Management Bus (SMBus) Specification, Version 2.0
•
Intel Trusted Execution Technology (Intel TXT)
•
Intel Rapid Storage Technology
•
Intel Virtualization Technology for Directed I/O (Intel VT-d)

1.3 Special Features

This section describes the health monitoring features of the X11SCA/-W/-F motherboard. The
motherboard has an onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that supports system health
monitoring.

Recovery from AC Power Loss

The Basic I/O System (BIOS) provides a setting that determines how the system will respond
when AC power is lost and then restored to the system. You can choose for the system to
remain powered off (in which case you must press the power switch to turn it back on), or
for it to automatically return to the power-on state. See the Advanced BIOS Setup section
for this setting. The default setting is Last State.
