Page 15: Chipset Overview
Chipset overview Figure 3. Processor and slot positions Chipset overview Built on the Intel 5500/5600 series processor and the 5520 chipset, the SB5520DT1 motherboard provides the performance and feature set required for dual-processor-based high- end systems that are optimized for high-performance computing (HPC) and clustering servers. The SB5520DT1 chipset consists of dual 5520 IO hubs and an ICH10R (South Bridge). -
Page 16: Main Features Of The 5500/5600 Series Processor And The 5520 Chipset
Introduction Each Intel 5520 supports up to 36 PCI Express Gen2 lanes with peer-to-peer read and write transactions. The ICH10R provides up six SATA ports and 10 USB connections. In addition, the SB5520DT1 chipset also offers a wide range of RAS (Reliability, Availability and Serviceability) features. -
Page 17: Environmental Temperature Control
ACPI features Environmental temperature control The thermal control sensor monitors the CPU temperature in real time and turns on the thermal control fan whenever the CPU temperature exceeds a user-defined threshold. The overheat circuitry runs independently from the CPU. Once the sensor detects that the CPU temperature is too high, it automatically turns on the thermal fan control to prevent any overheat damage to the CPU. -
Page 18: Power Supply
Introduction Power supply As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU clock rates. The SB5520DT1 can accommodate 24-pin ATX power supplies. Although many power supplies generally meet the specifications required by the CPU, some are inadequate. -
