Introduction Features Watchdog Timer The Watchdog Timer function allows your application to regularly “clear” the sys- tem at the set time interval. If the system hangs or fails to function, it will reset at the set time interval so that your system will continue to operate. DDR3 DDR3 delivers increased system bandwidth and improved performance.
Page 12 Introduction Serial ATA Serial ATA is a storage interface that is compliant with SATA 1.0a specifica- tion. SATA 3.0 supports speed up to 6Gb/s while SATA 2.0 supports speed up to 3Gb/s. This improves hard drive performance faster than the standard parallel ATA whose data transfer rate is 100MB/s.
Page 13 Introduction RTC Timer The RTC installed on the system board allows your system to automatically pow- er-on on the set date and time. ACPI STR The system board is designed to meet the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) specification. ACPI has energy saving features that enables PCs to implement Power Management and Plug-and-Play with operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management.
