6. F_USB1~3: Front Panel USB 2.0 headers
The motherboard has three USB 2.0 headers supporting six USB 2.0 ports. Addition-
ally, some computer cases have USB ports at the front of the case. If you have this
kind of case, use auxiliary USB connector to connect the front-mounted ports to the
motherboard.
Unlike F_USB2 & F_USB3, F_USB1 supports EZ Charger technology, provides 3 times
current than general USB port in off mode for USB devices. It is useful and excellent,
especially for the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices that need a large amount of
current for faster recharging within less time.
Please make sure that the USB cable has the same pin assignment as indi-
cated above. A different pin assignment may cause damage or system hang-
up.
7. TPM: Trusted Platform Module header
Trusted platform module (TPM) is a published specification detailing a
microcontroller that can store secured information, and implementations of that
specification.
