1-7 CHIPSET

To compliment the Intel® Celeron processor, the Intel® 810 chipsets delivers a

balanced platform solution for value computing. The 810 chipset is a highly-

integrated three-chip solution consisting of a Graphics & Memory Controller (Intel

82810), an I/O Controller (Intel82801), and a Firmware Hub (Intel 82802).

The ICH is a highly integrated multifunctional I/O Controller Hub that provides

the interface to the PCI Bus and integrates many of the functions needed in today

PC platforms. The ICH communicates with the host controller over a dedicated

hub interface. There are two versions of the ICH (82801AA: ICH and 82801AB:

ICH0). These devices are pin compatible and are in 241-pin packages.

The Intel® 82802 Firmware Hub (FWH) component is part of the Intel® 810

chipset. The FWH is key to enabling future security and manageabilily

infrastructures for the PC platform.

Intel has developed technology that enhances the performance and exceptional

value of the Intel® Celeron™ processor-powered PC. Built on the strong

foundation of Intel® 440BX AGPset technology, the Intel® 810 chipset has re-

engineered the Value PC, providing next generation features and great graphics

performance at a lower cost.

Richer, more robust 2D and 3D graphics are optimized thanks to an integrated

chipset design that utilizes second-generation graphics technology. This integrated

chipset offers innovative features with compelling performance while lowering

overall system costs.

A new design with big benefits

At the core of the 810 chipset is a memory controller with built-in graphics

technology. The 82810 chip optimizes system memory arbitration, similar to AGP

technology, resulting in a more responsive and cost-effective system.

Motherboard Description SY-6IWM

The 82810 Graphics Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) features Intel® graphics

technology and software drivers, using Direct AGP (integrated AGP) to create

vivid 2D and 3D effects and images. The 82810 chip features integrated Hardware

Motion Compensation to improve soft DVD video quality and a digital video out

port that enables connection to traditional TVs or the new space-saving digital flat

panel displays.

Intel® Dynamic Video Memory Technology (D.V.M.T.) is an architecture that

offers breakthrough performance for the Value PC segment through efficient

memory utilization and Direct AGP. The system OS uses the Intel software drivers

and intelligent memory arbiter to support richer graphics applications.

The System Manageability Bus allows networking equipment to monitor the 810

chipset platform. Using ACPI specifications, the system manageability function

enables low-power sleep mode and conserves energy when the system is idle.

The 82801 I/O Controller Hub (ICH) employs the Intel® Accelerated Hub

Architecture to make a direct connection from the graphics and memory to the

integrated AC97 controller, the IDE controllers, dual USB ports, and PCI add-in

cards.

The Accelerated Hub Architecture provides twice the bandwidth of the PCI bus at

266 MB per second. This allows a wider flow of rich information from the I/O

controller to the memory controller, with optimized arbitration rules allowing more

functions to run concurrently, enabling more life-like audio and video.

The Integrated Audio-Codec 97 controller enables software audio and modem by

using the processor to run sound and modem software. By reusing existing system

resources, this feature adds flexibility, and improves sound quality.

The 82802 Firmware Hub (FWH) stores system BIOS and video BIOS,

Motherboard Description SY-6IWM

eliminating a redundant nonvolatile memory component. In addition, the 82802

contains a hardware Random Number Generator (RNG). The Intel® RNG

provides truly random numbers to enable fundamental security building blocks

supporting stronger encryption, digital signing, and security protocols.

Intel 810 chipset re-engineers the Value PC by providing a platform that will

bring next generation features and great graphics performance to Value PC while

reducing overall platform cost.

1-7.1 Universal Serial Bus (USB)

The motherboard has two USB ports; one USB peripheral can be connected to

each port. For more than two USB devices, an external hub can be connected to

either port. The motherboard fully supports the universal host controller interface

(UHCI) and used UHCI-compatible software drivers.

Specification USB features include:

l Self-identifying peripherals that can be plugged in while the computer is

running

l Automatic mapping of function to driver and configuration

l Support for isochronous and asynchronous transfer types over the same set of

wires

l Support for up to 127 physical devices

l Guaranteed bandwidth and low latencies appropriate for telephony, audio,

and other applications

l Error-handling and fault-recovery mechanisms built into the protocol

Note

Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not

meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is

Motherboard Description SY-6IWM

attached to the cable. Use shielded cable that meets the requirements for a full-

speed USB device.

Motherboard Description SY-6IWM

1-7.2 IDE Support

The motherboard has two independent bus-mastering PCI IDE interfaces. These

interfaces support PIO Mode3, PIO Mode 4, ATAPI devices (e.g., CD-ROM), and

Ultra DMA/66 synchronous-DMA mode transfers. The BIOS supports logical

block addressing (LBA) and extended cylinder head sector (ECHS) translation

modes. The BIOS automatically detects the IDE device transfer rate and translation

mode.

Programmed I/O operations usually require a substantial amount of processor

bandwidth. However, in multitasking operating systems, the bandwidth freed by

bus mastering IDE can be devoted to other tasks while disk transfers are occurring.

The motherboard also supports laser servo (LS-120) drives. LS-120 technology

allows the user to perform read/write operations to LS-120 (120MB) and

conventional 1.44MB and 720KB diskettes. An optical servo system is used to

precisely position a dual-gap head to access the diskett’s 2,490 tracks per inch (tpi)

containing up to 120 MB of data storage. A conventional diskette uses 135 tpi for

1.44 MB of data storage.

LS-120 drivers are ATAPI-compatible and connect to the motherboard’s IDE

interface. (LS-120 drives are also available with SCJSI and parallel port

interfaces.) Some versions of Windows 95 and Windows NT operating systems

recognize the LS-120 drive as a bootable device in both 120 MB and 1.44 MB

mode.

Connection of an LS-120 drive and a standard 3.5-inch diskette drive is allowed.

The LS-120 drive can be configured as a boot device if selected as Drive A in the

BIOS setup program.

Note

If you connect at LS-120 drive to an IDE connector and configure it as the :boot:

drive and configure a standard 3.5-inch diskette drive as a “B” drive, the standard

diskette drive is not seen by the operating system. When the LS-120 drive is

configured as the “boot: device, the system will recognize it as both the A and B

drive

Motherboard Description SY-6IWM

1-7.3 Real-Time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery

The real-time clock is compatible with DS1287 and MC146818 components. The

clock provides a time-of-day clock and a multicentury calendar with alarm features

Motherboard Description SY-6IWM

operation.

l Bi-directional high-speed ECP

1-8.3 Diskette Drive Controller

The I/O controller is software compatible with the 82077 diskette drive controller

and supports both PC-AT and PS/2 modes. In the Setup program, the diskette drive

interface can be configured for the following diskette drive capacities and sizes.

l 360 KB, 5.25-inch

l 1.2 MB, 5.25-inch

l 720 KB, 3.5-inch

l 1.2 MB. 3.5-inch (driver required)

l 1.25-1.44 MB, 3.5-inch

l 2.88 MB, 3.5-inch

1-8.4 PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse Interface

PS/2 keyboard and mouse connectors are located on the back panel of the

motherboard. The +5 V lines to these connectors are protected with a fuse circuit

that, like a self-healing fuse, reestablishes the connection after an over-current

condition is removed.

Note

The mouse and keyboard can be plugged into either PS/2 connector. Power to the

computer should be turned off before a keyboard or mouse is connected or

disconnected.

The keyboard controller contains code, which provides the traditional keyboard

and mouse control functions, and also supports Power On/Reset password

protection. Power On/Reset password can be specified in the BIOS Setup program.

The keyboard controller also supports the hot-key sequence <Ctrl><Alt><Del>,

software reset. This key sequence resets the computer’s software by jumping to the

beginning of the BIOS code and running the Power On Self Test (POST).

Ø Fan speed sensors, which monitor the fan 1 and fan 2 connectors

Ø Power supply voltage monitoring to detect levels above or below acceptable

values

Motherboard Description SY-6IWM

When suggested ratings for temperature, fan speed, or voltage are exceeded, an

interrupt is activated. The hardware monitor component connects to the SMBus.

1-11 WAKE ON LAN TECHNOLOGY

Wake on LAN technology enables remote wakeup of the computer through a

network. Wake on LAN technology requires a PCI add-in network interface card

(NIC) with remote wakeup capabilities. The remote wakeup connector on the NIC

must be connected to the onboard Wake on LAN technology connector. The NIC

monitors network traffic at the MII interface; upon detecting a Magic Packet, the

NIC asserts a wakeup signal that powers up the computer. To access this feature

uses the Wake on LAN technology connector.

CAUTION

For Wake on LAN, the 5-V standby line for the power supply must be capable of

delivering +5V ±5 % at 720 mA. Failure to provide adequate standby current when

implementing Wake on LAN can damage the power supply.
