1.3 Special features

1.3.1 Product highlights

Latest processor technology

The PU-DLS/PU-DL motherboard supports the Intel® Xeon processor via dual 604-pin surface mount ZIF sockets. The processor features the Intel NetBurst™ micro-architecture that includes hyper-threading technology , a rapid execution engine, a 533/400MHz system bus, and an execution trace cache to offer a significant increase in performance. See page 2-4 for more information.

DDR memory support

Employing the Double Data Rate (DDR) memory technology, the PU-DLS motherboard supports up to 12GB of system memory using PC2100/1600 registered ECC DDR DIMMs. The ultra-fast 266/200MHz memory bus doubles the speed of the PC133/PC100 SDRAM to deliver the required bandwidth for the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and Internet applications.

Advanced 64-bit PCI-X bus

The 64-bit/133MHz PCI-X bus onboard maximizes I/O bandwidth for the next generation 64-bit PCI-X cards that support 133MHz bus. The PCI-X specification 1.0a allows full peer-to-peer transactions between PCI buses and provides options for intelligent I/O and server management cards.

Onboard LAN

The motherboard comes with the Intel® 82540EM 32-bit PCI Gigabit Ethernet controller, and the Intel controller, to fully support 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet Media Access Control (IEEE 802.3 compliant), and provide Physical Layer Transceiver solution for high performance network applications.

82544GC 64-bit PCI-X Gigabit Ethernet

Dual-channel Ultra-320 SCSI

The Adaptec 7902W Ultra-320 SCSI controller and dual-channel SCSI connectors are onboard to provide high-speed data transfers.

1-2

The Dual-Channel Ultra-320 SCSI features are available only on PU-DLS models.

Chapter 1: Product introduction

Zero-Channel RAID (ZCR) feature

One 64-bit PCI-X slot on the motherboard supports the Zero-Channel RAID feature and multi-level RAID 0, 1, 5.

The Zero-Channel RAID Card for ZCR function is supported only on PU-DLS models.

ATA/100 IDE support

The dual-channel bus master IDE connectors comply with the ATA/100 protocol and supports ATA/100, Multi-Word DMA Mode2, PIO modes 3 & 4 IDE devices such as ATAPI IDE CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, ZIP, and LS-120 drives.

1.3.2 Value-added solutions

Temperature, fan, and voltage monitoring

The CPU temperature is monitored by the ASUS ASIC to prevent overheating and damage. The system fan rotations per minute (RPM) is monitored for timely failure detection. The system voltage levels are monitored to ensure stable supply of current for critical components.

Dual function power switch

While the system is ON, pressing the power switch for less than 4 seconds puts the system to sleep mode or to soft-off mode, depending on the BIOS setting. Pressing the power switch for more than 4 seconds lets the system enter the soft-off mode regardless of the BIOS setting.

Wake-Up support

The motherboard includes Wake-On-LAN, Wake-On-Ring, and BIOS Wake-Up features.

ACPI ready

The Advanced Configuration power Interface (ACPI) provides more energy saving features for operating systems that support OS Direct Power Management (OSPM).

Concurrent PCI

This feature allows multiple PCI transfers from PCI master buses to the memory and processor.

Chassis intrusion detection

With this feature, the chassis intrusion circuitry logs “chassis-open” events into the system BIOS. The onboard battery supports the chassis intrusion detection feature even when the normal power is removed.

1-4

Chapter 1: Product introduction

Smart BIOS

The 4Mbit firmware hub (FWH) gives an easy-to-use interface that provides more control and protection to the motherboard. The BIOS has a boot block write protection and HD/SCSI/MO/ZIP/CD/Floppy boot selection.

The SCSI boot selection is available only on PU-DLS BIOS setup.

Compliance

Both the BIOS and the hardware levels of the motherboard meet the stringent requirements for SDG 2.0 certification. The new SDG 2.0 requirements for systems and components are based on the following high-level goals: support for Plug-and-Play compatibility and power management for configuring and managing all system components, 32-bit device drivers, and installation procedures for Windows NT/2000/XP. Color-coded connectors and descriptive icons make identification easy as required by the PC ‘99 specification.

ASUS PU-DLS/PU-DL motherboard

2.1 Motherboard installation

Before you install the motherboard, study the configuration of your chassis to ensure that the motherboard fits into it. The PU-DLS/PU-DL uses the extended ATX form factor that measures 12 in x 13 in (30.5 cm x 33 cm).

Make sure to unplug the power cord before installing or removing the motherboard. Failure to do so may cause you physical injury and damage motherboard components.

2.1.1 Placement direction

When installing the motherboard, make sure 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.

2.1.2 Screw holes

Place 10 screws into the holes indicated by circles to secure the motherboard to the chassis.

Do not overtighten the screws! Doing so may damage the motherboard.

Place this side towards the rear of the chassis.

2.3 Before you proceed

Take note of the following precautions before you install motherboard components or change any motherboard settings.

1. Unplug the power cord from the wall socket before touching any component.

2. Use a grounded wrist strap or touch a safely grounded object or to a metal object, such as the power supply case, before handling components to avoid damaging them due to static electricity.

3. Hold components by the edges to avoid touching the ICs on them.

4. Whenever you uninstall any component, place it on a grounded antistatic pad or in the bag that came with the component.

5. Before you install or remove any component, ensure that the

ATX 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.

When lit, the CPU power fail LED (CPULED1) indicates that the CPUs installed are not identical. Make sure to install identical CPUs if you wish to use the dual-processor capability. This LED does not light up if you installed only one CPU.

When lit, the standby power LED (LED1) indicates that the system is ON, in sleep mode, or in soft-off mode, a reminder that you should shut down the system and unplug the power cable before removing or plugging in any motherboard component.

2.4 Central Processing Unit (CPU)

2.4.1 Overview

The motherboard comes with dual surface mount 604-pin Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) sockets. The sockets are designed for the Intel Processor in the 604-pin package with 512KB L2 cache. The processor includes the Intel® NetBurst™ micro-architecture that features the hyper-pipelined technology, rapid execution engine, 533/400MHz system bus, and execution trace cache. Together, these attributes improve system performance by allowing higher core frequencies, faster execution of integer instructions, and data transfer rate of up to 4.2/3.2GB/s.

Note in the illustration that the CPU has a gold triangular mark on one corner. This mark indicates the processor Pin 1 that should match a specific corner of the CPU socket.

Incorrect installation of the CPU into the socket may bend the pins and severely damage the CPU!

The motherboard supports either one or two CPUs. If you are installing only one CPU, you MUST install the CPU in socket 1.
