  • Page 8 Pegasus is a highly integrated and self-contained Single Board Computer (SBC). Using a Socket 370 with the Intel 810 chip set, the Pegasus board will accept a full range of Intel Celeron and Pentium III CPU’s up to 800 MHz. Pegasus’ performance is unmatched in its class with these powerful yet cost effective Intel processors and a 168 pin DIMM slot for extra large memory capacity.
  • Page 9 Buzzer Battery CR2032 battery (NOTE: battery has a limited life of 10,000 hours. The Pegasus uses a CR2032 battery, which is used to maintain the CMOS when the unit is powered off. The battery has a life of approximately 10,000 hours. How many months the battery is good...

  • Page 11 The Pegasus provides a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) socket (socket 370 type) for easy CPU installation. 1. Make sure the ZIF socket lever is in the upright position. To raise the lever, pull it out to the side a little and raise it as far as it will go.
  • Page 12 Please follow these steps carefully. 1. Ensure that all power supplies to the system are switched off. 2. Locate the DIMM near the Pegasus DIMM socket so that its gold fingers point down into the DIMM socket. 3. The DIMM module has two notches on its edge connector. Ensure that the notches are facing away from the CPU.
  • Page 13 PEGASUS Figure 2-1 The option jumpers configure the Pegasus to match the needs of your application. A jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch. It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a jumper you connect the pins with the clip.

  • Page 18 BUSY SLCT The Pegasus board also contains a GPIO (General Purpose I/O) port that can be used to control and/or monitor an external custom piece of hardware. Fourteen (14) are available for custom control. The GPIO bits 0 - 7 are read/written through the Super I/O chip W83627 GP1 register bits 0 –...
  • Page 19 GPIO6 GPIO7 Pegasus allows the addition of PC104 Plus compatible devices via CN6. The PC104 Plus bus is a PCI compatible bus that utilizes a PC104 stackable type interface connector. The Pegasus PCI SVGA interface can drive conventional CRT displays and is capable of driving a wide range of flat panel displays, including electro luminescent (EL), gas plasma, passive LCD and active LCD displays.
  • Page 20 IEEE 802.3U 10/100Mbps CSMA/CD standards. It is supported by all major network operating systems. 10 or 100Base-T connects to the Pegasus via an adapter cable to a 10-pin polarized header (CN9). For 10Base-T RJ-45 operation, an adapter cable converting CN9 into a standard RJ-45 jack is required.

    PEGASUS The Pegasus system BIOS and Remote Boot code is located in a 512 KB, 32-pin PLCC Flash ROM device, designated U15. A single Flash chip holds the system BIOS, VGA BIOS, and network Remote Boot code. All peripherals are configured via CMOS settings. This method minimizes the number of chips and difficultly of configuration.
