Serial ATA II technology Storage is efficient and secure with the Serial ATA II interface. Uti- lizing the Intel® ICH9, the NUPRO-935A supports up to two Serial ATA II devices capable of reading/writing data at up to 3 Gbps. The SATA specification improves chassis airflow via thinner and more flexible cables with lower pin count.

The CMOS RAM data contains the date / time and BIOS setting information. CMOS is powered by the onboard button cell battery. To erase the CMOS RAM data: (1) Unplug the NuPRO-935A (2) short the JP1 pin 2-3 (3) turn the power on. After power on, remove the jumper cap from pin 2-3 and reinstall it to pin 1-2.
This chapter provides information on how to install components on the NuPRO-935A SBC. 3.1 Installing the CPU The NuPRO-935A supports a single Intel® Core™2 Quad/Duo, Pentium® D, or Celeron® processor via the surface mount LGA775 socket (Socket T). Disconnect all power supply to the board before installing a CPU to prevent damaging the board and CPU.

CPU Fan/Heatsink Installation When the CPU fan/heatsink installation procedures presented here are inconsistent with the installation procedures included with the CPU fan and heatsink package, follow the latter. To install the CPU fan/heatsink: 1. Attach the backplate included with the fan/heatsink to the bottom side of the SBC.
Page 47
NuPRO-935A 4. Connect the CPU fan cable to the CPU fan connector on the SBC labeled FAN2 (see “Board Layout” on page 16). Note: Do not use fan/heatsinks with push-pin type attachments. They may exert too much tension on the PCB and cause the board to flex, resulting in damage to the SBC.
ATX 12V Power Connector The NuPRO-935A requires +12V DC power connected to CN7 for proper operation in either ATX or AT modes . If necessary, order a ATX12V Convert Cable from ADLINK for use with Molex 4-pin power connectors (P/N 30-00006-0000).
NuPRO-935A 3.4 Installing Memory Modules The NuPRO-935A supports up to 4 GB of DDR2 800/667 MHz memory modules in two DDR2 DIMM sockets. A DDR2 module has a 240-pin footprint compared to the legacy 184-pin DDR DIMM. DDR2 modules are notched to facilitate correct installation on the DIMM sockets.
