6Introduction
Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor
The NuPRO-842 is a full-sized single board computer (SBC) that
supports a single mPGA478 Intel® Pentium® 4 processor or a
478-pin Micro Flip-Chip Pin Grid Array (Micro-FCPGA) Mobile
Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor – M.
The Pentium 4 processor runs at a core speed of up to 3.06GHz
and the Mobile Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor – M runs at a core
speed of up to 2.4Ghz. The 845GV chipset keeps the FSB opera-
tion at 400/533 MHz (auto-selected).
Intel Pentium 4 Processor and Mobile Intel Pentium 4 Proces-
sor-M have an on-die 512kB L2 Advanced Transfer Cache (ATC).
The on-die cache has a 256-bit data bus from the processor core.
The design for using Pentium 4 processor required an upgraded
Voltage Regulator Module circuit implementation (VRM 9.0) to
handle tighter voltage tolerances.
The Intel® 845GV Graphics Chipset Memory Controller
Hub (GMCH)
The central hub for all data passing through core system elements
is through the Intel 845GV Graphics Chipset Memory Controller
Hub. To balance the performance offered by the processor and
memory interfaces, the GMCH allows several high-bandwidth I/O
configuration options. This chipset delivers balanced,
high-throughput system performance for dual processor server
platforms.
The Intel® 82801DB I/O Controller Hub 4 (ICH4)
Connection to the MCH is done through a point-to-point Hub Inter-
face 1.5 connection. The ICH4 provides legacy I/O interfaces
through integrated features including a two-channel Ultra ATA/100
bus master IDE controller and an USB controller for two USB
ports. The ICH4 also offers an integrated System Manageability
Bus 2.0 (SMBus 2.0) controller, as well as a PCI 2.2-compliant
interface.

Introduction 7
Watchdog Timer
The watchdog timer optionally monitors system operations. It can
be programmed for different timeout periods (from 1 to 255 sec-
onds or 1 to 255 minutes). The watchdog is capable generating a
Reset signal. Failure to strobe the watchdog timer within the pro-
grammed time period may result in a reset request. A register bit
can be enabled to indicate if the watchdog timer caused the reset
event. This watchdog timer register is cleared on power-up,
enabling system software to take appropriate action if the watch-
dog generated the reboot.
Video
The NuPRO-842 provides two display ports. One analog port is
output on rear IO panel. The analog port uses an integrated 350
MHz RAMDAC of the 845GV GMCH that can directly drive a stan-
dard progressive scan monitor up to a resolution of 2048x1536
pixels with 32-bit color at 60 Hz. The NuPRO-842 has a
high-speed interface to a digital display use daughter board
DB-842DVI. The Intel 845GV chipset implements Dynamic Video
Memory Technology (DVMT) to ensure the most efficient use of
system memory, allowing up to 64MB of system memory to be
shared among OS, applications, and graphics display.
Ethernet Interfaces
The NuPRO-842 provides two 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet ports
supplied via an Intel 82540EM chip, which are connected to the
82801DB. Each Ethernet interface is routed to an RJ45/LED all in
one Connector on the rear panel. Each LAN chip will be assigned
a unique static MAC Address. LED drive signals for Ethernet link
status and activity are routed to the same connector. The onboard
Ethernet is Wired For Management 2.0 compliance. This port is
available on the real panel.
Serial I/O
Two serial ports are supported by the NuPRO-842. The EIA232
drivers and receivers reside on board. COM1 and COM2 are avail-
able as a 10-pin header on the motherboard. Both ports will be
configured as DTE. Firmware will initialize the two serial ports as

8Introduction
COM1 and COM2 with ISA I/O base addresses of 3F8h and 2F8h
respectively. This default configuration also assigns COM1 to
IRQ4 and COM2 to IRQ3. The NuPRO-842 serial controller
resides in the W83627HF Super I/O device.
IEEE-1284 Parallel Port/Printer Interface
The parallel I/O interface signals are routed to a 26-pin connector
on the board. This port supports the full IEEE-1284 specifications
and provides the basic printer interface.
Firmware will initialize the parallel port as LPT1 with ISA I/O base
address of 378h. This default configuration also assigns the paral-
lel port to IRQ7. The printer interface mode (Normal, Extended,
EPP, or ECP) is selectable through the BIOS SETUP utility with
the W83627HF Super I/O device managing the NuPRO-842’s par-
allel port.
Universal Serial Bus (USB)
NuPRO-842 supports 6 USB2.0 serial ports backward compatible
to USB1.x.One USB port is on the faceplate and others with pin
header. USB allows for the easy addition of peripherals such as
mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc. Transfer rates up to 480Mb/s
are supported. Full-speed connections (480Mb/s) require shielded
and tested cables. NuPRO-842 will provide the standard 0.5A at
5V to the peripherals.
IDE Controller and Floppy Interface Controller
The NuPRO-842 includes an IDE Controller (in the ICH4) and a
Floppy Disk Controller (in the W83627HF). The IDE Controller pro-
vides support for internal or external IDE drives. Signals are avail-
able at the IDE connectors CN14 and CN13 and are routed to a
40-pin header. The FDD Controller provides support for an exter-
nal FDD drives. Signals are available at the FDD connector CN12
and are routed to a 34-pin header.
Keyboard/Mouse Controller
The NuPRO-842 includes an onboard PC/AT keyboard and
mouse controller. The keyboard/mouse signals are available

Introduction 9
through the PS/2 circular DIN on the panel. Both the keyboard and
mouse can be connected at the same time using ADLINK’s Y
cable. An extra pin header connector is available for connection of
an external keyboard. The NuPRO-842 keyboard/mouse control-
ler resides in the Winbond W83627HF Super I/O device
Software
The NuPRO-842 is compatible with all major PC operating sys-
tems. ADLINK provides support for many popular operating sys-
tems, including additional drivers for ADLINK peripherals.
Software device drivers for the NuPRO-842 may be found on the
ADLINK CD.
