How to use this guide

This manual is written to help you use Peak 555A. The manual describes how

to arrange various settings on the Pentium CPU board to meet your

requirements. It‘s briefed as follows:

Chapter 1, “Introduction” gives an overview of the product‘s specifications.

It also tells you what are included in the product package.

Chapter 2, “Jumpers and Connectors” describes the definitions and positions

of Jumpers and Connectors that you may easily configure and set up per your

requirement.

Chapter 3, “Capability Expanding” describes how to change or expand the

CPU Board by changing the system memory, cache memory, and CPU to get

more power out from the CPU board.

Chapter 4, “Award BIOS Setup” describes how to use the advanced

PCI/Green BIOS to control almost every feature of the Peak 555A, including

the watchdog timer.

The Appendix describes how to set up the Watch Dog Timer (WDT) and

gives an example to program the WDT.

Introduction

Welcome to the PEAK-555A Pentium single board computer.

The PEAK 555A is a brand new generation of advanced technologies.

They are built with high performance socket7 CPU with clocks up to

100MHz, high performance PCI Bus and I/O's, and the brand new

technologies: the pipeline burst cache and the 4th generation VGA with

Unified Memory Architecture (UMA) are also included. An optional

ultra wide SCSI module also gives the PEAK 555A unique feature. It's

excellent to the system integrators, VARs, or turnkey vendor demanding

high performance computing, high performance I/O and the best

solution as the Industrial workstation, and the controller in the computer

telephony application.

The PEAK 555A can run with Intel Pentium MMX processor up to 233

MHz, the brand new socket7 CPU like AMD K6-2 with 100MHz external

clocks are also supported. The CPU support up to 400MHz very high

performance, moreover, think to its advanced design, the Peak 555A

also supports Intel low power CPU up to 266 MHz. It could run without

and cooling fan! Memory support up to 512 KB/1MB pipeline burst

cache and 512 MB SDRAM. This generates great computing power.

The Winbond integrates the floppy controller, two serial ports, one

parallel ports as well as the KBD/mouse controller. The two on-chip

UARTs are compatible with NS 16C550, and the parallel port support

EPP/ECP. The on board VGA is a high performance graphic and

video accelerator and 3D AGP built in, with the unified memory

architecture it can fully utilize the system memory up to 1280x1024, true

color, and 1600x1200, high color . The shared memory could be 8MB

for display purposes. The IDE now supports the Ultra DMA/33,

DMA/66 and the USB ports are also reserved, the socket for Disk on

Chip of the M-systems is on board, supporting up to 144MB. The 10

Base T/100 Base TX Ethernet Controller is standard on board with PCI

Interface. The proprietary PCI Bus is reserved. Now it’s for the

adapted AIC 7880, the Ultra wide SCSI module. It’s easy to design

another module if necessary.

Peak 555A User's Guide

Specifications 1-3

The additional keyboard connector is reserved for connecting to the

keyboard connector on the back plane. The high precision real time

clock/calendar is built in for accurate scheduling and the watchdog timer

is also the standard feature.

A special circuit is reserved to monitor the CPU cooling fan. If the

cooling fan stops or abnormally slow, the buzzer will beep as alarm.

The Peak’s unique offering the ISAMAX is the standard feature of the

Peak 555A, and supporting up to 20 PCs of ISA add-on cards without

any problems

A 4pin power connector is severed on the advanced power regular

module for standalone application. The Peak 555A already integrates

lot of features on hand. It’s actually complete enough for most of the

normal applications.

The PEAK 555A will be available our two module as follows:

--- PEAK 555VL: All common feature plus V6A and LAN, no SCSI

module.

--- PEAK 555A: Plus ultra wide SCSI module.
