Features
The key features of this mainboard are the advanced VIA 82c693A/596B
chipset, and the support for FC-PGA processors. You can choose to
develop a low-cost value system or a high-performance workstation.
Support for FC-PGA Celeron and Cyrix Joshua Processors
This mainboard support two kinds of processors FC-PGA Celerons, and
Cyrix FC-PGA Joshua processors.
The new generation FC-PGA Celeron processors ship in the familiar
square plastic package, and they install in a Zero Insertion Force (ZIF)
socket called a Socket-370. The new Celeron processors are close to
Pentium-II performance because they include a level-2 cache memory of
128K. However, they operate over a 66 MHz system bus and they
currently ship at clock speeds of up to 533 MHz.
The new Cyrix FC-PGA Joshua processor also fits into the Socket-370.
The Joshua will include a 256K on-chip L2 cache, which runs at full
processor speed. It is the first non-Intel chip to plug into the same socket
as a Celeron.
Assemblers can choose the processor they need to meet performance or
price targets. You can configure the system for any of the supported
processor clock speeds using the BIOS setup utility. It is not necessary
to set switches or jumpers.
Three DIMM Memory Slots
The board has three DIMM slots for the installation of 168-pin, 3.3V
standard or registered SDRAM (Synchronous Dynamic Random Access
Memory) memory modules. The system supports memory that has built-
in error correction (EC), error correction code (ECC), or has no error
correction.
The DIMM slots support PC-100 (100 MHz) and PC-133 (133 MHz)
memory modules. You can install one, two or three modules. Each
memory module can hold a maximum capacity of 256 MB of standard
SDRAM chips so maximum memory capacity is 768 MB.
