Toshiba Personal Computer T3100e is a compact and light-
weight portable personal computer. The T3100e is a high-
performance system with special features. The CPU is the
80286-12 16-bit microprocessor. The standard memory has a
capacity of 1 Mbyte. The hard disk drive (HDD) has a
capacity of 20 Mbytes. The floppy disk drive (FDD) can
support 2DD (720 Kbytes) and 2HD (1.44 Mbytes) floppy disks.
The universal auto-sensing power supply is used for world-
wide usage.
The T3100e system unit consists of the following functional
modules;
System board/Memory board

The key features of the system unit are:
o A system board and memory board connected by 2 flat
cables.
o An internal 3.5-inch FDD supporting two media types:
2HD (double-side, high-density, double-track)
2DD (double-side, double-density, double-track)
The 2HD and 2DD floppy disks can be formatted with 1.44
Mbytes and 720 Kbytes of storage capacity,
respectively.
o A 20-Mbyte 3.5-inch HDD (hard disk drive) .
o An
internal 82-key keyboard. For most applications it
can be used exactly like a standard typewriter
keyboard.
o An internal 640 x 400 pixel plasma display.
o A universal auto-sensing power supply that can be used
world-wide provides +5 VDC, +12 VDC, -5 VDC and -12 VDC
power to all the components in the system unit,
including the option cards. For the plasma display, the
power supply provides the regulated +205 and +5 VDC
power. The power supply's ventilation fans are driven
by +12 VDC.
o A
lithium battery that keeps the date and time even
when the system unit power is off.
o A parallel printer (or floppy disk drive),
Red/Green/Blue (RGB) direct drive Cathode Ray Tube
(CRT) display, and two SERIAL device connectors,
located on the system unit's rear panel and right side.
The parallel printer connector can be used to connect
an external FDD unit by changing the A-B-PRT switch.
