The MIC-3351 provides jumpers for configuring your board for specific applications other than the default settings. Table 1-1 list the jumper functions. Figure 1-3 illustrates the jumper locations.
Page 18
This section tells how to set the jumpers to configure your card. It gives the card default configuration and your options for each jumper. After you set the jumpers and install the card, you will also need to run the BIOS Setup program (discussed in Chapter 6) to configure the serial port addresses, floppy/hard disk drive types and system operating parameters.

If a CompactFlash card and an IDE drive are connected to the primary IDE channel at the same time, we recommend to set the CompactFlash card as master and the other IDE drive as slave. Otherwise, the MIC-3351 may not be able to detect the CompactFlash correctly.

The MIC-3351 provides two 144-pin SODIMM sockets, one on the component side of the upper board and the other one on the solder side of the upper board. Each socket accepts 16, 32, 64, or 128 MB SDRAM. The sockets can be filled in any combination with DIMMs of any size, giving a total memory capacity between 16 and 256 MB.
Page 28
The MIC-3351 provides one IDE (Integrated Device Electronics) connector on board. Two IDE drives can be connected to the MIC- 3351 through the on-board conector. However, due to the limited space, the on-board bracket accepts only one 2.5" hard disk drive.
Page 29
One floppy disk drive can be connected to the MIC-3351 through the on-board connector. The 1-slot wide mounting bracket shipped with the MIC-3351 can accommodate one floppy disk drive. Please refer to Figure 2-1 for the assembling procedures. This socket accepts an IDE-compatible CompactFlash memory card. If a CompactFlash card is inserted in the CompactFlash socket and an IDE drive (i.e.

The parallel port is designated as LPT1 and can be disabled or changed to LPT2 or LPT3 from the system BIOS setup. The MIC-3351 provides a 6-pin mini-DIN connector (CN3) on the front panel for connection of PS/2 keyboard and PS/2 mouse. The MIC-3351 comes with an cable to convert from the single 6-pin mini-DIN connec- tor to a double PS/2 keyboard connector and PS/2 mouse connector.
Page 31
The MIC-3351 is equipped with a high performance 32-bit PCI-bus Fast Ethernet interface which is fully compliant with IEEE 802.3u 10/ 100Base-TX specifications. It is supported by all major network operating systems and is 100% Novell NE-2000 compatible. One on- board RJ-45 jack provides convenient connection to the network.

The MIC-3351 uses an Intel C&T 69000 chipset as its VGA controller. The VGA controller has an integrated 2 MB SDRAM operating at 83 MHz, and can drive CRT displays with resolutions up to 1024 x 768 at 64 K colors. It supports interlaced and non-interlaced analog monitors (color and monochrome VGA) in high-resolution modes while main- taining complete IBM VGA compatibility.

When holding down a key, the Typematic Delay is the time interval between the appearance of the first and second characters. The input values (msec) for this category are: 250, 500, 750, 1000. This setting determines whether the system will boot if the password is denied, while limiting access to Setup.

If you select this and press the [Enter] key, the values entered in the setup utilities will be recorded in the CMOS memory of the chipset. The microprocessor will check this every time you turn your system on and compare this to what it finds as it checks the system. This record is required for the system to operate.

To program the watchdog timer, you must write a program which writes a value to I/O port address 443 (hex). This output value represents time interval. The value range is from 01 (hex) to 3F (hex), and the related time interval is from 1 sec. to 63 sec. Data Time Interval 1 sec.
Page 67
After data entry, your program must refresh the watchdog timer by rewriting the I/O port 443 (hex) while simultaneously setting it. When you want to disable the watchdog timer, your program should read the I/O port 443 (hex). The following example shows how you might program the watchdog timer in BASIC:...
