INTRODUCTION
The MS-6112 is a high-performance personal computer mainboard based on
®
the Pentium II processor.
®
The mainboard uses the highly integrated Intel 82440LX AGPset which
optimize the system bandwidth and concurrency with the implementation of
Quad Port Acceleration (QPA). QPA provides 4-port concurrent arbitration
of the processor bus, graphics, PCI bus and SDRAM.
®
The Intel 82371AB chipset integrates all system control functions such as
ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface). The ACPI provides
more Energy Saving Features for the OSPM(OS Direct Power Management)
®
function. The Intel 82371AB chipset also improves the IDE transfer rate by
supporting Ultra DMA/33 IDE that transfers data at the rate of 33MB/s.
The mainboard also supports the LM78 System Hardware Monitor
Controller as optional function. The LM78 function includes: CPU /power
supply/chassis fan revolution detect, CPU/system voltage monitor, system
temperature monitor, and chassis intrusion detect(optional).
