Introduction 1
INTRODUCTION
The high performance TEK933 (also called the PCI-933) Pentium
TM PCI-ISA Single
Board Computer has the special characteristics of supporting Intel
’s Pentium
microprocessor, as well as both the PCI bus and the ISA bus. It has the following
features:
•The TEK933 fully complies with the PCI INDUSTRIAL COMPUTER
MANUFACTURERS GROUP (PICMG), Revision 2.0 specification. As a result, the
TEK933 is fully IBM AT compatible, as well as complying with the PCI Local Bus
Specification, Revision 2.1. This board may be installed in the TEK950 PCI-ISA
Passive Backplane, which has three PCI slots, five ISA slots and one dedicated PCI-
ISA CPU slot (for more information, see the TEK950 TECHNICAL REFERENCE
MANUAL).
•The TEK933 has an interchangeable microprocessor design, with the following
PentiumTM microprocessors available: 75, 100, 120, 133, 150 and 166MHz.
•Each microprocessor has separate Code and Data Caches: 8KB Code, and 8KB
Write Back Data.
•The TEK933 standard configuration also has 256KB of direct-mapped, write-back /
write-through External Cache Memory (optional: none).
•System memory can be configured from 2MB to 128MB (256MB when available)
of Dynamic RAM (DRAM) with 32-bit or 36-bit modules installed on the board's
four vertical, 72-pin SIMM sockets.
•The board is ideal for industrial applications with features like:
-Watchdog timer;
-SMM (System Management Mode) support and full SMI (System Management
Interrupt) interface for power management;
-Power failure detector;
-Low battery detector;
-Shadow RAM BIOS support for fast execution;
-Flash EPROM boot;
-Real-Time Clock (RTC) with battery backup.
•The TEK933 has a multi-function connector which provides all the necessary
signals for connecting the keyboard, speaker, reset, and keylock interface devices.

Introduction 2
•The local bus SVGA video controller is from Cirrus Logic
and provides high
resolution Flat Panel and CRT displays. The board also comes with 1MB of video
memory (DRAM) and a Feature Connector for video overlay and color keying.
•A PS/2 mouse port is included.
•The board includes two enhanced onboard IDE interfaces, which support PIO
(Programmed Input/Output) mode-4 and mode-5 transfer rates.
•The TEK933 includes an enhanced super Floppy controller which supports two
Floppy disk drives of up to 2.88MB each, 16 bytes of FIFO buffering and a 48mA
drive buffer.
•The TEK933 board has one parallel printer port (the hardware supports ECP and
EPP modes).
•Two 16550 compatible serial ports with internal 16-byte FIFO buffers can be
defined as two of the following: COM1, COM2, COM3 or COM4. Serial Port 2 is
available as RS232 or RS485/RS422. Serial Port 1 is only available as RS232.
•The onboard Ethernet port, compliant with IEEE 802.3/ANSI 8802-3, can function
with either the 10 Base-T or 10 Base-2 interface.
•The Ethernet Controller supports the Plug and Play standard. It has a serial
EEPROM onboard for Plug and Play compatibility and configuration storage.
•An optional onboard SCSI controller supports up to seven SCSI peripherals and
Fast SCSI II.

Introduction 3
The TEK933 TECHNICAL REFERENCE MANUAL is divided as follows:
Part One - QUICK INSTALLATION - includes essential information to get your
TEK933 up and running quickly:
•1: INSTALLING SYSTEM
MEMORY: How to configure and install system memory.
•2: JUMPER LOCATIONS
& CONFIGURATION: Convenient diagram and graphical tables give
you an easy reference for setting jumpers.
•3: INSTALLING TEK933
IN PASSIVE BACKPLANE: Explains which passive backplanes are
compatible with the TEK933 board.
•4: CONNECTOR LOCATIONS
& PIN-OUTS: Convenient diagram and pin-out tables give
you the basics for wiring in all devices and
mating connectors. If you require more detail,
refer to the appropriate section in Part Two -
HARDWARE REFERENCE.
•5: SOFTWARE SETUPS: This section shows you how to access the
AMIBIOS Setup and the VIP-UP Setup. If you
require more detail, see Section 15 - AMIBIOS
SETUP and Section 16 - VIP-UP SETUP (both in
Part Three - SOFTWARE REFERENCE).

Introduction 4
Part Two - HARDWARE REFERENCE - divides the TEK933 Pentium
TM PCI-ISA
Single Board Computer according to functional units; it includes detailed information
on the board's hardware features and on installation and setup procedures:
•6: SYSTEM: Covers various components of the system
board: Microprocessor, Fan Connector, PCI/ISA
System Controller, System Cache, System
Memory, EPROM BIOS devices, Battery,
Supervisor Utilities, integrated Real Time Clock -
AT Keyboard & PS/2 Mouse Controller, Multi-
Function Connector and PS/2 Mouse Connector.
•7: PCI-ISA BUS: Covers the PCI and ISA buses.
•8: SYSTEM I/O: Covers the System I/O Controller.
•9: IDE & FLOPPY: Covers IDE and Floppy connectors and
related hardware and software configuration.
•10:SERIAL &
PARALLEL PORTS: Covers Serial and Parallel ports and related
hardware and software configuration.
•11:SCSI: Covers installation, configuration and termination
of SCSI devices.
•12:ETHERNET: Covers Ethernet connectors and related software
configuration.
•13:VIDEO: Covers the Video Components: Video memory,
Video Controller, Flat Panel Connector, VGA
Connector and Feature Connector.
•14:POWER MANAGEMENT: Covers the System Controller's power
management features, the Reset Circuit, the
Power Fail Detection Circuit and the Watchdog
Timer.

Introduction 5
Part Three - SOFTWARE REFERENCE - describes in detail various software and
utilities that come with the TEK933 board.
•15:AMIBIOS SETUP: AMIBIOS software setup program is used to
change operating system parameters.
•16:VIP-UP SETUP: TEKNOR's own software setup program, which
complements AMIBIOS.
•17:UPDATING BIOS
WITH UBIOS: This utility allows you to take BIOS files from a
disk and update the Flash EPROM BIOS with
them; it also allows you to copy the contents of
the Flash BIOS to files on disk.
•18:VT100 MODE: This feature enables the Single Board Computer
to run without a local keyboard or screen:
Operation is controlled by a remote terminal, or a
computer emulating a terminal, via a serial link.
