Introduction

2.4. Microprocessor

The motherboard is designed to operate with the following processor:

Processor Type	Speed	FSB
Intel Pentium 4	1.7GHz~3.06GMHz+	400, 533 MHz

An onboard switching voltage regulator provides the required 1.1 to 1.85 volts for the processor. The processor sends five VID (Voltage identification) signals to the switching voltage regulator. The switching regulator generates the correct voltage for the processor.

2.5. CPU Packaging

The motherboard’s CPU socket is a surface mount, mPGA478B type ZIF (Zero Insertion Force) socket. The socket has 478 pins with 50 mil pin pitch.

Note: ZIF sockets are sockets designed for easy insertion of pin grid array (PGA) chips. The chip is dropped into the socket, and a lever is used to secure the chip in place.

2.6. AC 97 Codec

This motherboard features the AC 97 (ALC650) codec. The AC 97 (ALC650) Audio codec is compliant with the AC 97 2..2 specification, and supports 18-bit ADC (Analog Digital Converter) and DAC (Digital Analog Converter) resolution as well as 18-bit stereo full-duplex codec with independent and variable sampling rates. Further features include support for four analog line-level stereo inputs.

Mainboard User’s Manual

3.2. Installation

The BBPCHOME is designed to fit into a special ATX form factor chassis. The chassis comes with various mounting fasteners, which are made of metal or plastic. It is highly recommended to use as many metal fasteners as possible to mount the motherboard in the chassis for better grounding.

To install the motherboard you need to install the CPU and DDR memory modules, attach the connectors.

3.3. Safety Measures

Computer components and electronic circuit boards can be damaged by discharges of static electricity. Working on computers that are still connected to a power supply can be extremely dangerous. Follow the simple guidelines below to avoid damaging you computer:

zAlways disconnect the motherboard from the ATX power supply, and disconnect the computer from the power outlet whenever you are working inside the computer case.

zIf possible, wear a grounded wrist strap when you are installing the motherboard or working inside the computer case. Alternatively, discharge any static electricity by touching the bare metal chassis of the computer case, or the bare metal body of ay other grounded appliance.

zHold electronic circuit boards by the edges only. Do not touch the components on the board unless it is necessary to do so. Do not flex or stress the circuit board.

zLeave each component inside the static-proof packaging that it ships with until you are ready to use the component for the installation.
