Introduction - DTK PAM-0057V User Manual

CHAPTER 1
Preface
The motherboard is a 4 layer, 2/3 baby AT size high performance mainboard. It is developed
around the pentium microprocessor with 64 bit access to data transfer and MMX technology. It
includes VIA VT82C580VPX Apollo-VPX System Chipset, Winbond W83877F Super I/O Chip.
Features
