Safety information

Electrical safety
To prevent electrical shock hazard, disconnect the power cable from the
electrical outlet before relocating the system.
When adding or removing devices to or from the system, ensure that the power cables for the devices are unplugged before the signal cables are connected. If possible, disconnect all power cables from the existing system before you add a device.
Before connecting or removing signal cables from the motherboard, ensure that all power cables are unplugged.
Seek professional assistance before using an adapter or extension cord. These devices could interrupt the grounding circuit.
Make sure that your power supply is set to the correct voltage in your area. If you are not sure about the voltage of the electrical outlet you are using, contact your local power company.
If the power supply is broken, do not try to x it by yourself. Contact a qualied service technician or your retailer.
Operation safety
Before installing the motherboard and adding devices on it, carefully read all the manuals that came with the package.
Before using the product, make sure all cables are correctly connected and the power cables are not damaged. If you detect any damage, contact your dealer immediately.

1.4 Special features

Intel® Atom™ Processor
This motherboard supports the latest Intel® Atom™ processor D510 in Micro-FCBGA8 packaging technologies, which has memory and VGA controller integrated to support 1-channel (2 x SO-DIMM) non-ECC DDR2 667 memory and provding great graphics performance.
Serial ATA II technology
The motherboard supports the Serial ATA II 3 Gb/s technology through the Serial
ATA interface. The Serial ATA II specication provides twice the bandwidth of the
current Serial ATA products with a host of new features, including Native Command Queuing (NCQ), Power Management (PM) Implementation Algorithm, and Hot
Swap. Serial ATA allows thinner, more exible cables with lower pin count and
reduced voltage requirements.
USB 2.0 technology
The motherboard implements the Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 specication, dramatically increasing the connection speed from the 12 Mbps bandwidth on USB
1.1 to a fast 480 Mbps on USB 2.0. USB 2.0 is backward compatible with USB 1.1.
Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring
The CPU/MB temperature is monitored to prevent overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is monitored for timely failure detection. The chip monitors the voltage levels to ensure stable supply of current for critical components.
1-4 Chapter 1: Product introduction
This chapter lists the hardware setup procedures that you have to perform when installing system components. It includes description of the jumpers and connectors on the motherboard.

2.1 Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings.
Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.
Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.
Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.
Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.
Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the power supply is switched off or the power cord is detached from the power supply. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to the motherboard, peripherals, and/or components.
Onboard LED
1. Standby Power LED
The motherboard comes with a standby power LED. The green LED lights up
to indicate that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode. This is a reminder that you should shut down the system and unplug the power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard component. The illustration below shows the location of the onboard LED.
ASUS Hummingbird 2-3
2. BMC LED (BMC_LED1)
(Hummingbird model only)
The green heartbeat LED blinks per second to indicate that the ASMB4 is
working normally.
The heartbeat LED functions only when you install the ASUS ASMB4.
2-4 Chapter 2: Hardware information

2.2 Motherboard overview

Ensure to unplug the chassis power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so can cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components!

2.2.1 Placement direction

When installing the motherboard, ensure that you place it into the chassis in the correct orientation. The edge with external ports goes to the rear part of the chassis as indicated in the image below.

2.2.2 Screw holes

Place four (4) screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.
DO NOT overtighten the screws! Doing so can damage the motherboard.
Place this side towards
the rear of the chassis

2.3 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The motherboard comes with an onboard Dual-Core Intel® Atom™ D510 processor and a specially designed CPU heatsink.

2.4 System memory

2.4.1 Overview

The motherboard comes with two Double Data Rate 2 (DDR2) SO Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMM) sockets.
The gure illustrates the location of the SO-DIMM sockets:
2.4.2 Memory Congurations
You may install 512MB, 1GB, or 2GB unbuffered non-ECC DDR2 SO-DIMMs into the DIMM sockets.
Always install DIMMs with the same CAS latency. For optimum
compatibility, it is recommended that you obtain memory modules from the same vendor.
The motherboard supports single-sided x16, double-sided x8, and
single-sided x8 DIMM modules only.
ASUS Hummingbird 2-9

2.4.3 Installing a DIMM

Unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or other system components. Failure to do so can cause severe damage to both the motherboard and the components.
1. Position the DIMM at a 30º-45º angle, then match the notch on the DIMM with the break on the socket.
2. Carefully push the DIMM to the socket until its connectors (golden
ngers) are fully-inserted to the
socket.
3. Press the DIMM rmly until the
DIMM socket retaining clips snap back and secure the DIMM in place.
When installed, the DIMM appears
as shown.
2-10 Chapter 2: Hardware information

2.4.4 Removing a DIMM

To remove a DIMM:
1. Simultaneously push the DIMM socket retaining clips outward until the DIMM tilts up.
2. Carefully pull the DIMM out from the DIMM socket, then set aside.
ASUS Hummingbird 2-11

2.5 Expansion slot

In the future, you may need to install expansion cards. The following subsections describe the slot and the expansion cards that it supports.
Ensure to unplug the power cord before adding or removing expansion cards. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.

2.5.1 Installing an expansion card

To install an expansion card:
1. Before installing the expansion card, read the documentation that came with it and make the necessary hardware settings for the card.
2. Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed in a chassis).
3. Remove the bracket opposite the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screw for later use.
4. Align the card connector with the slot and press rmly until the card is
completely seated on the slot.
5. Secure the card to the chassis with the screw you removed earlier.
6. Replace the system cover.
2.5.2 Conguring an expansion card
After installing the expansion card, congure it by adjusting the software settings.
1. Turn on the system and change the necessary BIOS settings, if any. See Chapter 4 for information on BIOS setup.
2. Assign an IRQ to the card. Refer to the tables on the next page.
3. Install the software drivers for the expansion card.
When using PCI cards on shared slots, ensure that the drivers support “Share
IRQ” or that the cards do not need IRQ assignments. Otherwise, conicts will
arise between the two PCI groups, making the system unstable and the card inoperable.
