LV-667 User’s Manual Introduction
Product Overview 7
Chapter 1 <Introduction>
1.1 <Product Overview>
LV-667 is the Mini-ITX motherboard based on VIA chipset. It integrates the last VIA
embedded chipset for CN400 with VT8237, DDR266/333/400 SDRAM, and serial ATA with
RAID to provide the economical embedded platform.
VIA CN400 & VT8237 Chipset
The board comes with the VIA last embedded chipset of CN400, supports DDR266/333/400
SDRAM, integrated the S3 Graphics UniChrome Pro IGP graphics core, hardware MPEG-2
and MPEG-4 acceleration and HDTV interface.
The VT8237 provides the board to support Ultra V-Link (1GB/s) with CN400, two serial ATA
ports with RAID array function, 6 x USB2.0 ports and 5.1 channelAC97 audio.
Multimedia solution
Based on VIA CN400 chipset, the board provides optional 18/24-bit LVDS, HDTV and DVI
interface, which supports dual independent display with CRT. The board also has an
optional mini-AGP interface to work with AGP 8x graphic card.
Onboard AC97 codec provides the high quality of sound including 20-bit, stereo ADC and
6-channel stereo DACs.
Dual LAN Interface
LV-667 also comes with dual 10/100Mbps LAN interface, support boot-on-LAN and
wake-on-LAN function.
High Speed Hot-plug Interface
Based on VIA VT8237, the board provides 6 USB2.0 interfaces with up to 480Mbps of
transferring rate, 3 IEEE1394a interfaces with up to 400Mbps of transferring rate.
Expanded UCR for remote Operating SETUP Bios Feature
Expanded Universal Console Redirection (UCR) is a feature for monitoring POST
messages and running Setup and an operation system from a remote serial terminal.
