1.1 Specifications

CPU(PGA370)

Intel Celeron® and Pentium® III (FC-PGA)
Processor, supports 66/100/133 MHz FSB

Introduction

Welcome to the ROCKY-3703EVR Celeron & Pentium® III
Single Board Computer. The ROCKY-3703EVR board is an
ISA/PCI form factor board, which comes equipped with high
performance Pentium® III Processor and advanced high
performance multi-mode I/O, designed for the system
manufacturers, integrators, or VARs that want to provide all the
performance, reliability, and quality at a reasonable price.

In addition, the ROCKY-3703EVR provides S3 Savage4 AGP4X
VGA on board. The VGA chip is 3D graphics chipset, which
provides up to 1920x1440x16-color resolution. The VGA on
board 2 to 32MB frame buffer using system memory.

This board has a built-in DiskOnChip™(DOC) Flash Disk Socket
for embedded applications. The DOC Flash Disk is 100%
software compatible with hard disks. Users can use any DOS
command without any extra software utility. The DOC currently
is available from 2MB to 144MB.

An advanced high performance super AT I/O chip – VIA
VT82C686B is used in the ROCKY-3703EVR board. Both on­chip UARTs are compatible with the NS16C550. The parallel
port and IDE interface are compatible with IBM PC/AT
architecture.

The ROCKY-3703EVR uses dual Intel 82559 Fast Ethernet
Multifunction PCI Controller as a LAN controller. Which is a fully
integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX LAN solution with high
performance networking functions and low power features.

The ROCKY-3703EVR uses the advanced VIA PM133/PL133
Chipset which is 100% ISA/PCI software compatible chipset with
PCI 2.1 standard.

2.3 Setting the CPU of ROCKY-3703EVR

Some components on ROCKY-3703EVR SBC are very
sensitive to static electric charges and can be damaged by a
sudden rush of power. To protect it from unintended damage,
be sure to follow these precautions:

 Ground yourself to remove any static charge before touching

your ROCKY-3703EVR SBC. You can do it by using a grounded
wrist strap at all times or by frequently touching any conducting
materials that is connected to the ground.

 Handle your ROCKY-3703EVR SBC by its edges. Don’t touch

IC chips, leads or circuitry if not necessary.

 Do not plug any connector or jumper while the power is on.

Reading I/O port 443H enables the Watch-Dog Timer. It should
be triggered before the time-out period ends, otherwise it will
assume the program operation is abnormal and will issue a
reset signal to start again, or activate NMI to CPU. The Watch­Dog Timer is disable by reading I/O port 043H or 843H. Refer to
Appendix A for detailed information on Watch-Dog Timer.

AMI BIOS Setup

The ROCKY-3703EVR uses the AMI PCI/ISA BIOS for system
configuration. The AMI BIOS setup program is designed to
provide maximum flexibility in configuring the system by offering
various options, which may be selected for end-user
requirements. This chapter is written to assist you in the proper
usage of these features.

4.1 Getting Started

When powering on the system, the BIOS will enter the Power­On-Self-Test (POST) routines. These routines will be executed
for system test, initialization and system configuration verification.
After the POST routines are completed, the following message
appears:

" Hit DEL if you want to run SETUP"

To access AMI PCI/ISA BIOS Setup program, press <Del> key.
The following screen will be displayed at this time.
