Note that even though the desktop power supply is autoselect, it is not a full range power supply.

It works in 2 input voltage range and not in one big 90 V to 240 V range.

On minitower models, always check the voltage switch position at first power-on.

— 0.2 A 0.2 A — 0.2 A 0.5 A

An attempt to draw too much current (such as a short circuit across edgeconnector pins, or an accessory board that is not suitable for these PC Workstations), will cause the overload protection in the power supply to be triggered, and the PC Workstation could fail to boot.

Both power supplied on the desktop and minitower models are new compare to the ones used on previous platforms (Vectra VL 6/xxx and XA 6/ xxx). The difference is at the V standby level, which has been extended to deliver 300mA instead of 100mA. This extra current is required by the 100TX hardware layer so it can perform a remote power-on at reception of a magic frame. Using an older power supply for a repair will prevent a remote power-on at reception of a magic frame.

panel, the power consumption falls below 5 Watts, but is not zero. The special on/off method used by this PC Workstation extends the lifetime of the power supply. To reach zero power consumption in “off” mode, either unplug the PC Workstation from the power outlet or use a power block with a switch. You should be aware that the PC Workstation will lose its time settings within a few days if you unplug the PC, or switch off the PC Workstation at the power block.

System Board and Backplane Boards

Both desktop and minitower models have an AGP graphics controller built into the system board.

. Also includes: SCSI Led and external SCSI cable detection.

Chip-Set

The Intel AGPset is comprised of two chips. The 440LX PAC chip and the PIIX4chip.

• The PAC chip (440LX) is the bridge between four buses: the PL (GTL) bus, the main memory bus, the PCI bus and the AGP (graphic) bus.

• The PIIX4 chip is the bridge between three buses: the PCI bus, the SM bus and the ISA bus. In addition, it contains the IDE controller, USB controller and Power Management logic

The PAC Chip (440LX)

The PAC chip, called the Intel 440LX AGPset, is contained in a Ball Grid Array (BGA) package, giving a smaller footprint and higher reliability.

The PAC chip integrates a Host-to-PCI bridge, optimized DRAM controller and data path, and an Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) interface. The AGP is a high performance, component level interconnect, targeted at 3D graphics applications.

PL Bus Interface The PAC chip monitors each cycle that is initiated by the processor, and

forwards those to the PCI bus that are not targeted at the local memory. It translates PL bus cycles into PCI bus cycles.

The chip can support one or two Pentium II processors, at up to 66 MHz FSB clock frequency. Refer to page 35 Processor-Local Bus.

for a description of the devices on the

PCI Bus Interface The PCI bus interface is PCI 2.1 compliant.

Sequential PL-to-PCI memory write cycles are translated into PCI zero wait state burst cycles. The maximum PCI burst transfer can be between 256 bytes and 4 KB. The chip supports advanced snooping for PCI master bursting, and provides a pre-fetch mechanism dedicated for IDE read.

The PCI arbiter supports PCI bus arbitration for up to six masters using a rotating priority mechanism. Its hidden arbitration scheme minimizes arbitration overhead. Additional logic on the PC Workstation extends the number of fully supported masters to seven (440LX master not counted). Refer to page 39

for a description of the devices on the Processor-Local Bus.
