1.8 Design Overview

This section presents a design overview of key parts and features of the tablet PC. Refer to Chapter 3, “Illustrated Parts Catalog‚" to identify replacement parts, and Chapter 5, “Removal and
Replacement Procedures," for disassembly steps.
The system board provides the following device connections:
Memory module
Hard drive
Display
Optional keyboard and pointing stick
Audio
Intel Pentium-M or Celeron processor
Fan
PC Card
Secure Digital (SD) Memory card (not SDIO)
External MultiBay
Modem or modem/NIC
CAUTION: To properly ventilate the tablet PC, allow at least a 7.6-cm
Ä
(3-inch) clearance around the sides of the tablet PC.
The tablet PC uses an electric fan for ventilation. The fan is controlled by a temperature sensor and is designed to come on automatically when high temperature conditions exist. These conditions are affected by high external temperatures, system power consumption, power management, battery conservation configurations, battery fast charging, and software applications. Exhaust air is displaced through the ventilation grill located on the left side of the tablet PC.
