1.5. INTRODUCE THE PCI - BUS
Connecting devices to a CPU local bus can dramatically increase the speed of I/O-bound peripherals with only a slight increase in cost over traditional systems. This price/performance point has created a vast market potential for local bus products. The main barrier to this market has been the lack of an accepted standard for local bus peripherals. Many mainboard and chipset manufactures developed their own local bus implementations, but they are incompatible with each other. The VL (Video Electronics Standards Association) local bus and PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) bus specification was created to end this confusion.
The PCI - bus standard, under development since Jun. 1992, which is designed to bring workstation-level performance to standard PC platform. The PCI - bus removes many of the bottlenecks that have hampered PC for several years. On the PCI - bus, peripherals operate at the native speed of the computer system, thus enabling data transfer between peripherals and the system at maximum speed. This performance is critical for bandwidthconstrained devices such as video, multimedia, mass storage, and networking adapters.
PCI - bus standard provides end-users with a low-cost, extendible and portable local bus design, which will allow system and peripherals from different manufactures to work together.

Hardware Installation
3.HARDWARE INSTALLATION
3.1. UNPACKING
The mainboard package should contain the following:
∙The GA - 586ATV mainboard.
∙USER'S MANUAL.
∙Cable set for I/O Device.
∙Diskette for BUS MASTER IDE Driver.
The mainboard contains sensitive electric components which can be easily damaged by static electricity, so the mainboard should be left in its original packing until it is installed.
Unpacking and installation should be done on a grounded anti-static mat. The operator should be wearing an anti static wristband, grounded at the same point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the mainboard carton for obvious damage. Shipping and handling may cause damage to your board. Be sure there are no shipping and handling damages on the board before proceeding.
After opening the mainboard carton, extract the system board and place it only on a grounded anti-static surface component side up. Again inspect the board for damage. Press down on all of the socket IC's to make sure that they are properly seated. Do this only on with the board placed on a firm flat surface.
MDO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE BOARD IF IT HAS BEEN DAMAGED.
You are now ready to install your mainboard. The mounting hole pattern on the mainboard matches the IBM-AT system board. It is assumed that the chassis is designed for a standard IBM XT/AT mainboard mounting.
Place the chassis on the anti-static mat and remove the cover. Take the plastic clips, Nylon stand-off and screws for mounting the system board, and keep them separate.

3.4. DRAM INSTALLATION
The mainboard can be installed with 4 / 8 / 16 / 32 MB 72 pins SIMM module DRAM, and the DRAM speed must be 60 or 70 ns. The DRAM memory system on mainboard consists of bank 0 & bank 1.
Each bank consist of 2 PCs 72 pins SIMM module DRAM. Because the 72 pins SIMM module is 32 bits width, using 2 PCs which can match a 64 bits system. The total memory size is 8 - 128 MB, and various configuration of DRAM types in the following TABLE are for reference:

The DRAM installation position refer to Figure 3.1, and notice the Pin 1 of
3-5
GA-586ATV
SIMM module must match with the Pin 1 of SIMM socket when the DRAM SIMM module is installed.
Insert the DRAM SIMM module into the SIMM socket at 45 degree angle. If there is a wrong direction of Pin 1, the DRAM SIMM module couldn't be inserted into socket completely.
After completely insert SIMM module into socket, then press the SIMM module in vertical direction until the left and right metal holders can keep the SIMM module standing up con-firmly.
3.5. SRAM INSTALLATION
3.5.1 Onboard Sync. SRAM (Pipe Line Burst SRAM)
Sync SRAM consists of 2 PCs Pipeline Burst 64 K x 32- 6/7 for 512KB Sync. SRAM. The TAG SRAM (U10) is 16KBx8-12.
3.6. CPU INSTALLATION AND JUMPERS SETUP
The system's speed depends on the frequency of CLOCK GENERATOR. The user can change the selection to set up the system speed to 50 MHz, 60 MHz, 66 MHz or 75 MHz for Intel 75 - 233 MHz 3.3V ~ 3.5V and 2.8V ~ 2.9V dual power plane Pentiumâ Processor.
The mainboard can use Intel Pentiumâ Processor (MMX or PODP), Cyrix 6x86 and AMD K5 / K6 processor and the CPU speed must match with the frequency of CLOCK GEN. It will cause system hanging up if the CLOCK GEN.'S frequency is higher than CPU's.
MThe CPU is a sensitive electric component and it can be easily damaged by static electricity, so users must keep it away from metal surface when the CPU is installed onto mainboard.
MWhen the user installs the CPU on socket, please notice the PIN 1 of CPU is in the same corner as the PIN 1 of socket!
MBefore the CPU is installed, the mainboard must be placed on a flat plane in order to avoid being broken by the pressure of CPU installation.
3.7. CMOS RTC & ISA CFG CMOS SRAM
3-6
Hardware Installation
There're RTC & CMOS SRAM on board, they have a power supply from internal battery to keep the DATA inviolate & effective. The RTC is a REALTIME CLOCK device which provides the DATE & TIME to system. The CMOS SRAM is used for keeping the information of ISA device system configuration, so the system can automatically boot OS. every time.
Due to the life-time of 3V Li-battery is 5 years, the user can change a new one to replace old one after it can not work.
3.8. SPEAKER CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
There is always a speaker in AT system for sound purpose. The 4-Pins connector J6 is used to connect speaker.
The speaker can work well in both direction of connector when it is installed to the connector J6 on mainboard.
3.9. POWER LED & KEY LOCK CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
There are a system power LED lamp and a key on the panel of case. The power LED will light on when system is powered-on, and the key can lock the keyboard input or unlock it, both of them are connected to a 5 PIN connector. The connector should be installed to J7 of mainboard in correct direction.
3.10. TURBO SWITCH CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
The TURBO switch on the panel is used for controlling the system speed. Some program developed on XT should be executed with a low speed system, so a high speed system needs the speed switching function to change its running speed.
The mainboard uses 50 MHz speed method to implement DE-TURBO switching function. The J11 on mainboard should be connected to the TURBO switch on panel, and user can push in or pop out the TURBO switch to enable or disable the turbo function of system.
NOTE: If the system already use 50MHz clock, then the TURBO function will inactive.
3.11. TURBO LED CONNECTOR INSTALLATION
The TURBO LED on panel can indicate the current speed status of system. The TURBO LED connector should be installed to J12 in correct direction.
