1.3 –Board Diagram

The above picture is purely representative. Due to engineering updates and new board

revisions, certain components may change and or be repositioned. The picture above may

or may not look exactly like the board you received.

The following page includes details on the vital components of this motherboard.

Chapter 2: Choose Proper Parts For Your System

Before you installa system with this motherboard, make sure your major system parts meet the

following basic guidelines and requirements:

2.1 –Central Processor Unit (CPU) Considerations

§Process Type and Package

Thunder i7525 (S2676) board supports Intel Xeonprocessors in 604-pin Pin Grid

Array package.

§Front Side Bus (FSB)

The processor host bus, or called Front Side Bus (FSB), always operates at 800 MHz.

Choose Intel Xeon800 MHz FSB processors for Thunder i7525 (S2676) board.

The system will not operate with 400MHz FSB or 533MHz FSB Intel XeonCPUs.

§Single/Dual Processor System

The S2676 will only support a dual CPU configuration where BOTH CPUs have the

same FSB, Core Frequency and internal cache sizes. Using CPUs that do not follow

these guidelines can/would result in damage to the CPUs or the motherboard.

Single Processor System:

When installing only a single CPU, that CPU must be installed on CPU1 socket to

operatecorrectly.

Dual Processor System:

Thunder i7525 (S2676) board supports dual processor configurations only in which both

processors operate with the same FSB frequency, core frequency, and have the same

internal cache sizes. Mixing processors operating at different FSB frequency, core

frequency, or cache sizes may cause system non-operation or damages on processors

and/or the motherboard.

2.2 –Memory Considerations

§MemoryType

The S2676 motherboard supports up to eight 240-pin, 1.8 volt DDR2-400 Reg/ECC

modules. The 8 slots support 256MB, 512MB, 1GB, 2GB and 4*GB memory sticks up

to 32*GB the maximum in total. (*Not validated at the time of release)

DDR-I or Unbuffered DDR memory modules are not supported by Thunder i7525

(S2676) design.

Visit Tyan’s web site for the memory recommendation list.

§Memory Installation

The Thunder i7525 is based on Intel’s e7525 Tumwater chipset which supports a 144-

bit wide dual memory channel in an interleaved scheme. The motherboard requires a

minimum of 2 memory modules installed in order to boot/POST. You must install these

2 memory modules starting in DIMM slots 1 and 2. Do not mix and match different sizes,

brands or speeds for the best performance and stability possible.

Thunder i7525 (S2676)

http://www.tyan.com

2.3 –Chassis/Enclosure Considerations

§Motherboardsize

Thunder i7525 (S2676) board is in the board size of12” (W) x13” (L).

§Motherboard and CPU Heat-sink Mounting Holes

There are six motherboard-mounting holes and eight CPU heat-sink mounting holes on

Thunder i7525 (S2676) board design. The motherboard and CPU mounting hole

locations follow SSI EEB v3.51 (AServer System Infrastructure specification for Entry

Pedestal Servers and Workstations) specifications. Ensure that the SSI-EEB chassis

you purchase is designed to accommodate the new Nacona heat sink mounting

process.

NOTE: There are many SSI-EEB chassis, but not all will accommodate the Nacona

design for the direct heat sink attachment to thechassis.Check with your vendor to

make sure thechassis supports the design.

Thunder i7525 (S2676) supports Intel’s CEK (Common Enabling Kit) for securing Intel’s

Xeon800 MHz FSB processors in the chassis. Two CEK springs for the dual

processors are pre-assembled with the motherboard or enclosed in the motherboard

accessory package. The CPU heat-sinks must be mounted down to the chassis base

panwithstand-offs. Any additional chassis standoffs, besides the 6 motherboard-

mounting holes and 8 CPU heat-sink mounting holes, should be removed to preventing

from short-circuit or motherboard damage.

§Others

As a system integrator, the air-flow/thermal, EMI/EMC, shock/vibration, and system

packing should be also considered for choosing a proper enclosure.

2.4 –Power Supply Considerations

§Power connectors

Thunder i7525 (S2676) board supports EPS/12V power supply unit (PSU) with three

power connectors listed below.

EPS/12V Power Connectors

24-pin system power connector 8-pin CPU power connector

(split CPU power planes)

§Split processor power planes

Thunder i7525 (S2676) board supports dual Intel’s 800 MHz FSB Xeonprocessors,

which could reach up to 140 Watts per processor. (Check Intel’s web for the processor

specifications.) By following SSI EEB v3.51 specifications, the Thunder i7525 (S2676)

is designed with two separate voltage regulator circuits to provide the power for both

onboard processors in separate power rails. Using a power supply with a combined

CPU power plane from the CPU power connector is not allowed and may causethe

system to fail to power up or damage to the power supply.

Thunder i7525 (S2676)

§Powerrequirements

Check your power supply specifications to ensure sufficient power currents for each

power rail based on your system configuration.

The major system components/parts power sources are listed below as reference:

Chapter 3: Board Installation

How to install our products right….the first time!

The first thing you should do read this user’s manual. It contains important information that will

make configuration and setup much easier. Here are some precautions you should take when

installing your motherboard:

(1) Ground yourself properly before removing your motherboard from the antistatic bag.

Unplug the power from your computer power supply and then touch a safely grounded

object to release static charge (i.e. power supply case). For the safest conditions,

TYANrecommends wearing a static safety wrist strap.

(2) Inspect the mounting holespattern of the Thunder i7525 (S2676) to match your chassis

standoff locations and remove the additional standoffs.

(3) Hold the motherboard by its edges and do not touch the bottom of the board, or flex the

board in any way.

(4) Avoid touching the motherboard components, IC chips, connectors, memory modules

and leads.

(5) Place the motherboard on a grounded antistatic surface or on the antistatic bag that the

board was shipped in.

(6) Inspect the board for damage.

(7) Check the jumper settings and connector locations as described in next sections.

In last sections of this chapter, we will cover the details on how to install your motherboard into

your chassis, as well as installing the processor, memory, disk drives andcables.

NOTE: Do not apply power to the board if it has been damaged.
