Direct Media Interface (DMI) for chip-to-chip true isochronous communication, providing up to 5 GT/s of software-transparent data transfer rate on each read/write direction. In addition, the X10SRW-F also features a TCO timer which allows the system to recover from a software/hardware lock and perform tasks, including Function Disable and Intruder Detect.
Chapter 1: Introduction Special Features Recovery from AC Power Loss Basic I/O System (BIOS) provides a setting for you to determine 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 a power-on state.
X10SRW-F User’s Manual ACPI Features ACPI stands for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface. The ACPI specifica- tion defines a flexible and abstract hardware interface that provides a standard way to integrate power management features throughout a PC system, including its hardware, operating system and application software. This enables the system to automatically turn on and off peripherals such as CD-ROMs, network cards, hard disk drives and printers.
Chapter 1: Introduction Super I/O The Super I/O supports two high-speed, 16550 compatible serial communication ports (UARTs). Each UART includes a 16-byte send/receive FIFO, a programmable baud rate generator, complete modem control capability and a processor interrupt system. Both UARTs provide legacy speed with baud rate of up to 115.2 Kbps as well as an advanced speed with baud rates of 250 K, 500 K, or 1 Mb/s, which support higher speed modems.
