Chapter 1 Specification
This series of mainboards features an integration of the powerful pro-
cessor Intel Pentium 4 and the single-chip North Bridge Intel 845GE.
The Intel P4 processor is a rapid execution engine providing 533/
400MHz system bus, while North Bridge Intel 845GE is a high perfor-
mance integrated chipset providing DDR333/266 DRAM memory
interface, Hub interface, AGP interface as well as another integrated
VGA interface with one on-board display port.
Integrated with i845GE, South Bridge Intel ICH4 supports the LPC
Super I/O, Upstream Hub interface, PCI interface, IDE interface, USB
2.0 interface, AC’97 2.2 (6-channel) Audio interface and the interrupt
control. This chapter is to introduce to users every advanced function
of this high performance integration.
