Overview
AMD DuronTM & AthlonTM Processors
The AMD AthlonTM is a seventh-generation micro architecture with an integrated
L2 cache, which is powerful enough to support the bandwidth requirements of a
large range of applications, hardware, graphics, and memory technologies. These
processors implement advanced design techniques such as:
Socket A (PGA 462)
200 266MHz system interface based on the Alpha EV6 bus protocol.
Three out-of-order, superscalar, pipelined Multimedia Units.
Three out-of-order, superscaler, pipelined Integer Units.
Fixed-sized internal instruction formats (MacroOPs).
72-entry Instruction Control Units.
AMD enhanced 3DNow! technology
L1 and L2 caches.
Dynamic branch prediction.
Socket A is the name for AMDs new socketed interface designed to support both
AMD DuronTM and AMD AthlonTM processors. This innovation is made possible
by integrating the L2 cache memory on chip with the processor. Socket A will
help enable smaller enclosures, and ultimately result in a wider variety of solu-
tions in the market.
The AMD DuronTM & AthlonTM processors in the Socket A format continue to
deliver the ultimate performance for cutting-edge applications. Both bring to
desktop systems running industry-standard x86 software superscalar RISC
performance. Being provided in the Socket A format they are the worlds most
powerful x86 processors. They easily deliver the highest integer, floating-point,
and 3D multimedia performance for applications running on x86 platforms
around.

Introduction
Page 1-3
The AMD DuronTM processor is derived from the AMD AthlonTM processor core.
It features full-speed, on-chip cache memory, a 200MHz front side system bus,
and enhanced 3DNow! technology. Although both processors are related, there
are key differences. The AMD AthlonTM processor is targeted at the performance
segment, and as such will have more cache memory and higher clock speeds.
Hardware Monitoring
Hardware monitoring allows you to monitor various aspects of your systems
operations and status. The features include CPU temperature, voltage and RPM of
fan.

Introduction
Page 1-4
Mainboard Form-Factor
The board is designed with Micro ATX form factor - the new industry standard of
chassis. Micro ATX form factor is essentially a Baby-AT baseboard rotated 90
degrees within the chassis enclosure and a new mounting configuration for the
power supply. With these changes the processor is relocated away from the
expansion slots, allowing them all to hold full length add-in cards. Micro ATX
defines a double height aperture to the rear of the chassis which can be used to
host a wide range of onboard I O. Only the size and position of this aperture is
defined, allowing PC manufacturers to add new I O features (e.g.; TV input, TV
output, joystick, modem, LAN, etc.) to systems. This will help systems integrators
differentiate their products in the marketplace, and better meet your needs.
Smaller size promotes a smaller system size.
I O shield does not need to be retooled in an Micro ATX 2.01 or later. The
mainboard should be used in an Micro ATX 2.01 (or later) compliant case.
A smaller power supply can be used. High integration on mainboard reduces
the system costs.

Power-On/Off (Remote)
The board has a single 20-pin connector for ATX power supplies. For ATX power
supplies that support the Remote On/Off feature, this should be connected to the
systems front panel for system Power On Off button. The systems power On Off
button should be a momentary button that is normally open.
The board has been designed with Soft Off" functions. You can turn Off the
system from one of two sources: The first is the front panel Power On Off
button, and the other is the "Soft Off" function (coming from the M Bs onboard
circuit controller) that can be controlled by the operating system such as Win-
dows® 95 98 SE ME or Windows®2000.

CPU Insertion
CPU Insertion: (use AMD AthlonTM as reference
Step 1
Open the socket by raising the actuation
lever.
Figure 2
Step 2
Insert the processor.
Ensure proper pin 1 orientation by aligning
the FC-PGA corner marking with the
socket corner closest to the actuation arm
tip. The pin field is keyed to prevent mis-
oriented insertion.
Dont force processor into socket. If it does
not go in easily, check for mis-orientation and
debris.
Make sure the processor is fully inserted
into the socket on all sides.

Step 3
Close the socket by lowering and
locking the actuation lever.

Thermal compound and qualified heatsink recommended by AMD are a must to
avoid CPU overheated and burned.

System Memory Configuration
Memory Layout
The board supports (2 PC133/VC133 168-pin DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory
Module . The DIMMs is for SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM only.
SDRAM may be 83MHz (12ns , 100MHz (10ns , 125MHz (8ns or
133MHz (7.5ns bus speed.
If you use both 50ns and 60ns memory you must configure your
BIOS to read 60ns.
When using Synchronous DRAM we recommend using the 4 clock
variety over the 2 clock.
Figure 6 and Table 1 show several possible memory configurations.
* SDRAM supports 32, 64, 128, 256MB, 512MB DIMM modules.
* e recommend to use PC100/VC100 Memory Module for bus speed
100MHz and PC133/VC133 Memory for bus speed over 100MHz.
* Using non-compliant memory with higher bus speed (over clocking) may
severely compromise the integrity of the system.

DIMM Module Installation
Figure 7 displays the notch marks and what they should look like on your DIMM
memory module.
DIMMs have 168-pins and two notches that will match with the onboard DIMM
socket. DIMM modules are installed by placing the chip firmly into the socket at
a 90 degree angle and pressing straight down (figure 8 until it fits tightly into the
DIMM socket (figure 9 .

To remove the DIMM module simply press down both of the white clips on either
side and the module will be released from the socket.
