AthlonTM Processors

The AMD AthlonTM is a seventh-generation micro architecture with an integrated

L2 cache, which is powerful enough to support the bandwidth requirements of a

large range of applications, hardware, graphics, and memory technologies. These

processors implement advanced design techniques such as:

Socket A (PGA 462

266/333MHz system interface based on the Alpha EV6 bus protocol.

Three out-of-order, superscalar, pipelined Multimedia Units.

Three out-of-order, superscaler, pipelined Integer Units.

Fixed-sized internal instruction formats (MacroOPs .

72-entry Instruction Control Units.

AMD enhanced 3DNow! technology

L1 and L2 caches.

Dynamic branch prediction.

Socket A is the name for AMDs new socketed interface designed to support AMD

AthlonTM processors. This innovation is made possible by integrating the L2 cache

memory on chip with the processor. Socket A will help enable smaller enclosures,

and ultimately result in a wider variety of solutions in the market.

The AthlonTM processors in the Socket A format continue to deliver the ultimate

performance for cutting-edge applications. Both bring to desktop systems running

industry-standard x86 software superscalar RISC performance. Being provided in

the Socket A format they are the worlds most powerful x86 processors. They easily

deliver the highest integer, floating-point, and 3D multimedia performance for

applications running on x86 platforms around.

It features full-speed, on-chip cache memory, a 266/333MHz front side system bus,

and enhanced 3DNow! technology. The AMD AthlonTM processor is targeted at

the performance segment, and as such will have more cache memory and higher

clock speeds.

Chipset Overview

This board is designed with nVidia chipset, nForce2TM IGP-128 as North Bridge and

nForce2TM MCP as South Bridge. NVIDIA® provide the highest-performance,

fullest-featured system architecture for the AMD Athlon XP Processor. The

second generation System Platform Processor works together with the second

generation of the NVIDIA Media Communication Processor, the MCP.

The nForce2 was architected specifically for the AMD AthlonXP Processor.

NVIDIAs patent-pending DASP (Dynamic Adaptive Speculative Pre-Processor

technology intelligently predicts and prefetches requests from the AMD Athlon XP

Processor to boost system performance beyond its nominal speed grade.

The nForce2 IGP-128 delivers twice the bandwidth by implementing the new

NVIDIA DualDDR Memory Architecture speed to DDR 400 memories. This

generation System Platform Processor also implements the AGP 8× interface,

HyperTransport Link, and is fully compliant with industry standard power manage-

ment specifications such as ACPI 2.0 and PCI Power Management Interface (PMI

Spec 1.1.

The NVIDIA® nForce MCP Media and Communications Processor (MCP

provides a highly integrated, high-performance, low-cost PC2001-compliant

peripheral controller that supports NVIDIA processor bridge functionality for

next-generation PCs. No other single-device controller provides all the functionality

of NVIDIAs MCP.

Introduction

Page 1-4

Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP)

The AGP slot on the board is compliant with the new AGP 3.0 specification. This

new specification enhances the functionality of the original AGP specification by

allowing 8X data transfers ( 8 data samples per clock resulting in maximum band-

width of 2.1GB/s. In addition, it defines 1.5 volt power supply operation. Complying

with this specification, this board supports external AGP-8X/4X cards with Fast

Write Transactions. Only 1.5V AGP cards are supported.

Ultra ATA/66/100/133

The MCP provides two independent ATA133 IDE controllers, supporting standard

programmable input/output (PIO and Direct Memory Access (DMA mode

operations, as well as UltraDMA-133/100/66/33 standards for a maximum data

transfer rate of 133MB/sec per channel.

LAN (Optional)

The motherboard mounts the LAN chipset. It allows the mainboard to connect to a

local area network by means of a network hub.

Hardware Monitoring

Hardware monitoring allows you to monitor various aspects of your system

operations and status. The features include CPU temperature, voltage and RPM of

fan.

Serial ATA (Optional)

The evolutionary serial ATA interface replaces the standard parallel ATA physical

storage interface. The serial ATA specification provides scalability and allows

future enhancements to the computing platform. Serial technology overcomes

performance limits of parallel interface architecture, meeting the escalating need for

faster data throughput in servers and storage devices.

Introduction

Page 1-5

Serial ATA is completely software compatible with parallel ATA, requiring no

modification to your operating system. The serial ATA interface cable requires lower

voltages and uses smaller cable connectors, providing ease of installation. You can

easily upgrade storage devices that are compatible with the serial ATA interface

specification. Serial ATA supports all ATA and ATAPI devices, including high

capacity removable devices, optical devices, tape storage devices, and zip drives.

Mainboard Form-Factor

This board is designed with Micro-ATX form factor - the latest industry standard

for chassis design. The Micro-ATX form factor is essentially a Baby-AT

baseboard rotated 90 degrees within the chassis enclosure and a new mounting

configuration for the power supply. With these changes the processor is

relocated away from the expansion slots, allowing them all to hold full length add-

in cards. Micro-ATX defines a double height aperture to the rear of the chassis

which can be used to host a wide range of onboard I/O. Only the size and

position of this aperture is defined, allowing PC manufacturers to add new I/O

features (e.g.; TV input, TV output, joystick, modem, LAN, audio, etc. to

systems. This will help systems integrators differentiate their products in the

marketplace, and better meet your needs.

 By integrating more I/O down onto the board and better positioning the hard

drive and floppy connectors material cost of cables and add-in cards is

reduced.

 By reducing the number of cables and components in the system, manufac-

turing time and inventory holding costs are reduced and reliability will

increase.

 By using an optimized power supply, it's possible to reduce cooling costs

and lower acoustical noise. An ATX power supply, which has a side-

mounted fan, allows direct cooling of the processor and add-in cards making

a secondary fan or active heatsink unnecessary in most system applications.
