INTRODUCTION

1-1

The ATX BX1 mainboard is a high-performance personal computer
mainboard based on the Pentium

®

II processor. The Pentium

®

II processor

supports MMX

TM

(Multimedia Extension) technology.

The mainboard uses the highly integrated Intel

®

82443BX AGP chipset to

support the PCI/ISA and Green standards, and to provide the Host/AGP
bridge. The Intel

®

82371EB chipset integrates all system control functions

such as ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface). The ACPI
provides more Energy Saving Features for the OSPM(OS Direct Power
Management) function. The Intel

®

82371EB chipset also improves the IDE

transfer rate by supporting Ultra DMA/33 IDE that transfers data at the rate
of 33MB/s.

The mainboard also supports the System Hardware Monitor Controller as an
optional function. The Hardware Monitor function includes: CPU /power
supply/chassis fan revolution detect, CPU/system voltage monitor, system
temperature monitor, and chassis intrusion detect(optional).
