Installation Preliminaries This section applies to all hardware installations you may perform on VP22 motherboards. Motorola strongly recommends that you use an antistatic wrist strap and a Use ESD conductive foam pad when installing or upgrading a system. Electronic components, such as disk drives, computer boards, and memory modules, can be extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Avoid touching areas of integrated circuitry; static discharge can damage these circuits. Caution 5. Set the VP22 motherboard on the chassis standoffs and start the screw(s) provided into the standoffs, without tightening them completely. 6. With all screws in place, tighten them snugly. http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature...

2Functional Description Introduction This chapter describes the VP22 motherboard on a block diagram level. General Description provides an overview of the VP22, followed by a detailed description of several blocks of circuitry. Figure 2-1 shows a block diagram of the overall board architecture. Socket 370 Processor Three 168-pin, 3.3V...
Functional Description Features The following table lists the features of the VP22 motherboard. Table 2-1. VP22 Motherboard Features Summary Feature Description Microprocessor –Single Intel PGA370 socket Pentium III or Celeron processor –66/100/133 MHz front-side bus (FSB) frequency L2 cache memory –256KB on-die Advanced Transfer Cache (ATC) for the Pentium III processor –128KB on-die ATC for the Celeron processor...
There are headers on the board for an asynchronous serial port, floppy port, IrDA port, internal USB port and two EIDE ports. As implemented on the VP22, the 815E chipset includes a Graphics Memory Controller Hub (GMCH), an I/O Controller Hub2 (ICH2) and a Firmware Hub (FWH). http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature...
Functional Description VP22 Processor The VP22 motherboard supports a single Intel PGA370 socket Pentium III or Celeron processor. The Pentium III has a FSB speed of 100/133 MHz and the Celeron has a FSB speed of 66 MHz. The 815E chipset keeps the FSB operation at 66/100/133 MHz (auto-selected).
LED indicators. Table 2-2 details the functionality of each indicator. Table 2-2. Ethernet LED Functions Indicator Status Function LED 1: Activity Blinking Data transfer in progress (Amber) No data transfer LED 2: Link Status Link (Green) Off line http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature...
Functional Description Super I/O Device The VP22 uses the Super I/O (SIO) device to provide two asynchronous serial ports, a peripheral parallel port, a PS/2 floppy port, PS/2 keyboard/mouse ports and an IrDA header. Asynchronous Serial Ports Two 16550-compatible asynchronous serial ports are supported on the VP22 motherboard.
Programmer’s Reference Guide, listed in Appendix C, Related Documentation. Audio Interface The VP22 provides a two channel, multimedia audio device capable of Audio Codec ’97 (AC ’97). Three connectors are available on the rear panel: MIC IN, LINE IN and LINE OUT. http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature...
Functional Description Video Interface Standard SVGA analog output is available on the rear I/O panel. The video function is provided via the Intel 82815 Graphics Memory Controller Hub (GMCH). The BIOS must have a selection in the CMOS setup to disable the onboard video to allow the user to use a PCI video as the primary video controller.
The watchdog timer is an 8-bit counter with one second resolution. The watchdog has either a one second granularity up to 255 seconds or a one minute granularity up to 255 minutes. The watchdog output is connected to reset. http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature...

ASpecifications Specifications Table A-1 lists the power requirements for the VP22 motherboard. Table lists the environmental specifications, along with the board dimensions and rear I/O connectors. Specifications for related components, peripherals and networks can be ordered from the sources listed in Appendix C, Related Documentation.
Specifications Table A-2. VP22 Specifications Characteristics Specifications Environmental Parameters 0° C to 60° C (32° F to 140° F) Temperature Operating −40° C to 85° C (–40° F to 185° F) Non-operating Altitude Operating –500 to 5,000 m (–1,640 to 16,404 ft.) Non-operating –500 to 15,000 m (–1,640 to 49,213 ft.) 5% to 95% (noncondensing)
These operating conditions vary depending on system design. While Motorola Computer Group (MCG) performs thermal analysis in a representative system to verify operation within specified ranges (see Appendix A, Specifications), you should evaluate the thermal performance of the board in your application.
Thermal Analysis refers to the temperature at the top, center surface of the component. Air temperature refers to the ambient temperature near the component. Table B-1. Thermally Significant Components Max. Allowable Component Reference Temperature Measurement Designator Generic Description (deg. C) Location ALC200 Audio Codec Case...
For the specific types of measurements required for thermal evaluation of this board, see Table B-1. Preparation We recommend 40 AWG (American wire gauge) thermocouples for all thermal measurements. Larger gauge thermocouples can wick heat away from the components and disturb air flowing past the board. http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature...
Thermal Analysis Allow the board to reach thermal equilibrium before taking measurements. Most circuit boards will reach thermal equilibrium within 30 minutes. After the warm up period, monitor a small number of components over time to assure that equilibrium has been reached. Measuring Junction Temperature Some components have an on-chip thermal measuring device such as a thermal diode.

Thermal Analysis Measuring Local Air Temperature Measure local component ambient temperature by placing the thermocouple downstream of the component. This method is conservative since it includes heating of the air by the component. The following figure illustrates one method of mounting the thermocouple. Tape thermocouple wire to top of component Thermocouple...
