Watchdog Timer There are two watchdog timers in Vortex86SX CPU. One is compatible with M6117D watchdog timer and the other is new. The M6117D compatible watchdog timer is called WDT0 and new one is called WDT1. We also provide DOS, Linux and WinCE example for your reference. For more technical support, please visit: http://www.dmp.com.tw/tech or download the PDF file:...
GPIO (General Purpose Input / Output) 40 GPIO pins are provided by the Vortex86SX for general usage in the system. All GPIO pins are independent and can be configured as inputs or outputs, with or without pull-up/pull-down resistors. We also offer DOS, Linux and WinCE example for your reference. For more technical support, please visit: http://www.dmp.com.tw/tech or download the PDF file:...
SPI flash (Serial Peripheral Interface) As SPI Flash (Serial Peripheral Interface) offers many benefits including: reduced controller pin count, smaller and simpler PCBs, reduced switching noise, less power consumption, and lower system cost Many of users may consider using a formatted SPI flash to boot for the system or emulate SPI flash as Floppy (A: Driver or B: Driver).
C h a p t e r Driver Installation The Vortex86SX processor also integrated 10/100Mbps Ethernet controller that supports both 10/100BASE-T and allows direct connection to your 10/100Mbps Ethernet based Local Area Network for full interaction with local servers, wide area networks such as the Internet. I/O and IRQ settings can be done by software with the supplied utility software, or it can be set for Plug and Play compatibility.
Appendix A. TCP/IP library for DOS real mode DSock is a TCP/IP library for DOS real mode, which is used by RSIP. It provides simple C functions for programmer to write Internet applications. ICOP also provide Internet examples using DSock: BOOTP/DHCP, FTP server, SMTP client/server, HTTP server, TELNET server, Talk client/server, etc.
B. BIOS Default setting If the system cannot be booted after BIOS changes are made, Please follow below procedures in order to restore the CMOS as default setting. Press “End” Key, when the power on Press <Del> to enter the AMI BIOS setup Press “F9”...
