6. CUSTOMIZING THE BOARD
6.1
PROCESSOR AND FAN
Your board will be installed with one of the available Pentium, Pentium MMX or K6
processors, and its adequate cooling fan. However, it may be necessary to reinstall or
reconfigure your board with new devices.
6.1.1 Installing Microprocessor
When installing a processor, its type, core voltage, clock speed multiplier, and Core/Bus
ratio value must be configured according to your CPU model.
Six jumpers are related to the processor:
W12-W13
W14-W15
W18
W19
Depending on the processor and the system in which
the board is integrated, fan and/or heater may be
required.
A +12V voltage is available through the J10 connector
to supply the fan (The connector's pinout appears in
Appendix-C).
Please refer to your processor specifications for more
information.
Define the internal CPU clock speed multiplier.
Define the Core/Bus clock ratio.
Selects the CPU type from Split-plane or Single-plane.
Selects the core voltage (Vcore).
