Desktop Board Features
Processor
Intel Desktop Board D2700DC includes a passively-cooled, dual-core Intel Atom
processor with integrated graphics and memory controller. The processor is soldered
to the Desktop Board and is not customer upgradeable.
NOTE
The board is designed to be passively cooled in a properly ventilated chassis. Chassis
venting locations are recommended above the processor heatsink area for maximum
heat dissipation effectiveness.
System Memory
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable Intel® SDRAM memory specifications, the
board should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD)
data structure. If your memory modules do not support SPD, you will see a
notification to this effect on the screen at power up. The BIOS will attempt to
configure the memory controller for normal operation.
The Desktop Board has two 204-pin DDR3 SO-DIMM sockets with gold-plated contacts.
These sockets support:
•Support for DDR3 1066/1333/1600 MHz SO-DIMMs (DDR3 1333 MHz and
DDR3 1600 MHz SO-DIMMs operate at 1066 MHz only)
• Serial Presence Detect (SPD) memory only
• Non-ECC memory
• Up to 4 GB of memory

NOTE
The back panel audio line out connector is designed to power amplified speakers or
headphones only. Poor audio quality occurs if passive (non-amplified) speakers are
connected to this output.
Legacy Input/Output (I/O) Controller
The legacy I/O controller provides the following:
• Low pin count (LPC) interface
• Serial IRQ interface compatible with serialized IRQ support for PCI systems
• Intelligent power management, including a programmable wake up event interface
• PCI power management support
• Low pin count (LPC) interface
16

Intel Desktop Board D2700DC Product Guide
USB 2.0 Support
The Desktop Board supports up to seven USB 2.0 ports (four ports routed to the back
panel and three ports routed to two front panel USB 2.0 headers). One of the front
panel USB headers supports an Intel Z-U130 USB Solid-State Drive or compatible
device. The USB 2.0 ports are compatible with USB 1.1 devices. USB 1.1 devices will
function normally at USB 1.1 speeds.
USB 2.0 support requires both an operating system and drivers that fully support
USB 2.0 transfer rates. Disabling High-Speed USB in the BIOS reverts all USB 2.0
ports to USB 1.1 operation. This may be required to accommodate operating systems
that do not support USB 2.0.
NOTE
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port might not
meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device or a low-speed USB device is
attached to the cable. Use a shielded cable that meets the requirements for a
full-speed USB device.
SATA Interface
The Desktop Board supports two SATA channels (3.0 Gb/s) that support one device
per channel. The SATA controller supports IDE and ACHI configuration and can
operate in both legacy and native modes.
Expandability
The Desktop Board provides the following expansion capability:
•One PCI bus connector. The connector can support either a single PCI add-in card
or a single- or dual-slot PCI riser card.
•One PCI Express Full-Mini Card slot (compatible with Full- and Half-Mini cards).
BIOS
The BIOS provides the Power-On Self-Test (POST), the BIOS Setup program, the PCI
and SATA auto-configuration utilities, and the video BIOS.
PCI/PCI Express Auto Configuration
If you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card in your computer, the PCI/PCI Express
auto-configuration utility in the BIOS automatically detects and configures the
resources (IRQs, DMA channels, and I/O space) for that add-in card. You do not need
to run the BIOS Setup program after you install a PCI/PCI Express add-in card.

Desktop Board Features
Security Passwords
The BIOS includes security features that restrict whether the BIOS Setup program can
be accessed and who can boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user
password can be set for the BIOS Setup and for booting the computer, with the
following restrictions:
•The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all Setup
options. If only the supervisor password is set, pressing <Enter> at the password
prompt of Setup gives the user restricted access to Setup.
•If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, you must enter either the
supervisor password or the user password to access Setup. Setup options are then
available for viewing and changing depending on whether the supervisor or user
password was entered.
•Setting a user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password
prompt is displayed before the computer is booted. If only the supervisor
password is set, the computer boots without asking for a password. If both
passwords are set, you can enter either password to boot the computer.
For instructions on resetting the password, see Clearing Passwords on page 40.
Hardware Management Features
The board’s hardware management features enable the board to be compatible with
the Wired for Management (WfM) specification. The board’s hardware management
features include thermal and voltage monitoring.
The hardware monitoring and fan control subsystem is based on the Winbond
W83627DH-P legacy I/O controller, which supports the following:
• Processor and system ambient temperature monitoring
• System fan speed monitoring
• Power monitoring of +12 V, +5 V, +5 Vstdby, +3.3 V, and +VCCP
• SMBus interface
Power Management Features
Power management is implemented at several levels, including:
• Software support through the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
• Hardware support:
― Power connector
― Fan header
― +5 V standby power indicator LED
― LAN Wake capabilities
― Instantly Available PC technology
― Wake from USB
― PME# wakeup support
― WAKE# signal wakeup support

Intel Desktop Board D2700DC Product Guide
ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug
and Play functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with the Desktop Board requires an
operating system that provides full ACPI support.
Hardware Support
Fan Header
The Desktop Board has a 3-pin system fan header. See Figure 12 on page 37 for the
location of the system fan header.
+5 V Standby Power Indicator
CAUTION
If the AC power has been switched off and the standby power indicator is still lit,
disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any devices connected to the
board. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices.
The Desktop Board’s standby power indicator, shown in Figure 4, is lit when there is
standby power to the system. This includes the SO-DIMM sockets and the PCI bus
connector, even though the computer appears to be off.
