Pentium 4 processor 1.3, 1.4, and 1.5 GHz 400 MHz 256 KB

CAUTION

Use only an ATX12V-compliant power suppIy with this board. ATX12V power supplies have two additional power leads that provide required supplemental power for the Intel Pentium processor and the Intel 850 chipset. Always connect both additional power supply leads of the ATX12V power supply, otherwise the board and the processor could be damaged.

Desktop Board 850GB Specification

Do not use a standard ATX power supply. Doing so could damage the board and the processor.

For information about Refer to

Processor support Section 1.2, page 16 Processor usage Section 1.2, page 16 Power supply connectors Section 2.8.2.3, page 56

Intel Desktop Board D850GB Technical Product Specification

1.5 System Memory

CAUTION

Turn off the power and unplug the power cord before installing or removing RIMM modules. Failure to do so could damage the memory and the D850GB board. (After removing AC power the standby power indicator LED should not be lit. See Figure 7 on page 40 for the location of the standby power indicator LED.)

NOTE

✏

The board supports combinations of no more than 32 RDRAM components per RDRAM bank. If the total number of RDRAM components installed in all RIMM sockets exceeds 64, the computer will not boot.

1.5.1 Memory Features

The 82850 Memory Controller Hub integrates two lock-stepped Direct Rambus banks, providing a processor-to-memory bandwidth up to 3.2 GB/sec. The D850GB board has four RIMM sockets (two sockets for each bank) and supports the following memory features:

• Single- or double-sided RIMM configurations

• Maximum of 32 Direct Rambus devices per bank

• Memory configurations from 128 MB (minimum) to 2 GB (maximum) utilizing 128 Mbit or

256 Mbit technology PC600 or PC800 compliant RDRAM

• Serial Presence Detect (SPD) based configuration for optimal memory operation

• Suspend to RAM support

• ECC and non-ECC support

1.5.2 Continuity RIMM Modules

All RIMM sockets must be populated to achieve continuity for termination at the Rambus

interface. Continuity RIMMs (or “pass-through” modules) must be installed in the second RDRAM bank if memory is not installed. If any of the RIMM sockets are not populated, the computer will not complete the Power-On Self-Test (POST) and the BIOS beep codes will not be heard.

Product Description

1.5.3 RDRAM Memory Configuration

When installing memory, note the following:

• The four RIMM sockets are grouped into two banks:  Bank 0 (labeled on the board as RIMM1 and RIMM2)  Bank 1 (labeled on the board as RIMM3 and RIMM4)

• Bank 0 must be populated first ensuring that the RDRAM installed in RIMM1 and RIMM2 is

identical in speed, size, and density. For example, the minimum system configuration would use two 64 MB RIMM modules of PC600 or PC800 RDRAM.

• If the desired memory configuration has been achieved by populating Bank 0, then Bank 1 should be filled with two Continuity RIMMs.

• If memory is to be installed in Bank 1, the RIMM modules installed in RIMM3 and RIMM4 must be identical in size and density to each other, and match the speed of the RIMM modules in Bank 0. The RIMM modules do not, however, need to match those in Bank 0 in size and density. For example, if Bank 0 has two 128 MB RIMMs of PC800 RDRAM, Bank 1 would require PC800 RDRAM also, however, any other supported RIMM modules such as 64 MB or 192 MB could be used.

• If ECC functionality is required, all installed RIMM modules must be ECC-compliant

Table 5 gives examples of RDRAM component density for various RIMM modules. Component density (counts) can be identified on the RIMM label.

NOTE

✏

The AGP connector is keyed for 1.5 V AGP cards only. Do not attempt to install a legacy 3.3 V AGP card. The AGP connector is not mechanically compatible with legacy 3.3 V AGP cards.

The AGP connector supports AGP add-in cards with 1.5 V Switching Voltage Level (SVL). An AGP Pro50 interface is available (for a 50 W maximum power draw) as a manufacturing option. Legacy 3.3 V AGP cards are not supported and will prevent the system from booting if installed.

For information about Refer to

The location of the AGP connector Figure 1, page 14 The signal names of the AGP connector Table 40, page 62

AGP is a high-performance interface for graphics-intensive applications, such as 3D applications. While based on the PCI Local Bus Specification, Rev. 2.1, AGP is independent of the PCI bus and is intended for exclusive use with graphical display devices. AGP overcomes certain limitations of the PCI bus related to handling large amounts of graphics data with the following features:

• Pipelined memory read and write operations that hide memory access latency

• Demultiplexing of address and data on the bus for nearly 100 percent efficiency

Product Description

1.12.1 Software Support

The software support for power management includes:

• APM

• ACPI

If an ACPI-aware operating system is used, the BIOS can provide ACPI support. Otherwise, it defaults to APM support.

1.12.1.1 APM

APM makes it possible for the computer to enter an energy-saving standby mode. The standby mode can be initiated in the following ways:

• Time-out period specified in the BIOS Setup program

†

• From the operating system, such as the Standby menu item in Windows

In standby mode, the D850GB board can reduce power consumption by spinning down hard drives, and reducing power to, or turning off of, VESA

†

DPMS-compliant monitors. Power

management mode can be enabled or disabled in the BIOS Setup program. While in standby mode, the system retains the ability to respond to external interrupts and service

requests, such as incoming faxes or network messages. Any keyboard or mouse activity brings the system out of standby mode and immediately restores power to the monitor.

Intel Desktop Board D850GB Technical Product Specification

The BIOS enables APM by default, but the operating system must support an APM driver for the power management features to work. For example, Windows 98 supports the power management features upon detecting that APM is enabled in the BIOS.

For information about Refer to

Enabling or disabling power management in the BIOS Setup program Table 72, page 104 The D850GB board’s compliance level with APM Table 3, page 16

1.12.1.2 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 D850GB board requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. ACPI features include:

• Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration) and APM support (normally contained in the BIOS)

• Power management control of individual devices, add-in boards (some add-in boards may require an ACPI-aware driver), video displays, and hard disk drives

• Methods for achieving less than 15-watt system operation in the power-on/standby sleeping state

• A Soft-off feature that enables the operating system to power-off the computer

• Support for multiple wake up events (see Table 9 on page 36)

• Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch. Table 7 lists the system states based

on how long the power switch is pressed, depending on how ACPI is configured with an ACPI-aware operating system.

1.12.1.2.2 Wake Up Devices and Events

Table 9 lists the devices or specific events that can wake the computer from specific states.

Table 9. Wake Up Devices and Events

These devices/events can wake up the computer… …from this state

Power switch S1, S3, S4, S5 RTC alarm S1, S3, S4, S5 LAN S1, S3, S4, S5 CNR S1, S3 , S4, S5 PME# S1, S3, S4, S5 Modem (back panel Serial Port A) S1, S3 IR command S1, S3 USB S1, S3 PS/2 keyboard S1, S3

Note: For LAN and PM E #, S5 is disabled by default in the BIOS S et up program. Setting this option to Power On will

enable a wake-up event from LAN in the S 5 state.

(Note)

NOTE

✏

The use of these wake up events from an ACPI state requires a properly configured operating system that provides full ACPI support. In addition, software, drivers, and peripherals must fully support ACPI wake events.

1.12.1.2.3 Plug and Play

In addition to power management, ACPI provides control information so that operating systems can facilitate Plug and Play. ACPI is used only to configure devices that do not use other hardware configuration standards. PCI devices for example, are not configured by ACPI.

Product Description

1.12.2 Hardware Support

CAUTION

Ensure that the power supply provides adequate +5 V standby current if the Wake on LAN and Instantly Available technology features are used. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total amount of standby current required depends on the wake devices supported and manufacturing options. Refer to Section 2.11.3 on page 73 for additional information.

The D850GB board provides several power management hardware features, including:

• Power connector

• Fan connectors

• Wake on LAN technology

• Instantly Available technology

• Resume on Ring

• Wake from USB

• Wake from PS/2 keyboard

• PME# wakeup support

Wake on LAN technology and Instantly Available technology require power from the +5 V standby line. The sections discussing these features describe the incremental standby power requirements for each.

Resume on Ring enables telephony devices to access the computer when it is in a power-managed state. The method used depends on the type of telephony device (external or internal) and the power management mode being used (APM or ACPI).

NOTE

✏

The use of Resume on Ring and Wake from USB technologies from an ACPI state requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support.

1.12.2.1 Power Connector

When used with an ATX12V-compliant power supply that supports remote power on/off, the D850GB board can turn off the system power through software control. To enable soft-off control in software, advanced power management must be enabled in the BIOS Setup program and in the operating system. When the system BIOS receives the correct APM command from the operating system, the BIOS turns off power to the computer.

With soft-off enabled, if power to the computer is interrupted by a power outage or a disconnected power cord, when power resumes, the computer returns to the power state it was in before power

was interrupted (on or off). The computer’s response can be set using the After Power Failure feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.

1.12.2.2 Fan Connectors

The D850GB board has two fan connectors with thermal control signals (fan 1 at location J10A2 and fan 2 at location J7M2) that are used to switch the fans on and off or adjust the fan speed as determined by the thermal sensors.

The ambient temperature of a D850GB-based system is thermally monitored by separate temperature sensors that control voltage to the fan 1 and fan 2 connectors. If the fans attached to these connectors provide a tachometer signal, the sensor reports the fan speed to the hardware monitor component.

The temperature sensors that control the fans are initialized by the BIOS at power-up to turn on only when the sensor reaches 36 cool down to 31

C (87.8 oF). This prevents the fans from turning off and on when the ambient air

around the sensor fluctuates around 35-36

slowly because the fan’s duty cycle starts at 70% and rises to 100% when the sensor reaches 46 (114.8

F).

C (96.8 oF). The fans switch off when their respective sensors

C. When the fans switch on, they may appear to rotate

All fans (fan 1, fan 2, fan 3, and fan 4) and the thermal control circuits are off during ACPI S3, S4, and S5 states. Fan 3 and fan 4 (and the associated thermal control fan circuits) are enabled during ACPI S0 and S1 states. Table 10 summarizes the functions of the four fan connectors.

Table 10. Fan Connector Descriptions

Connector Function

Chassis fan (fan 1) Provides +12 V DC for the syste m or chassis fan. A tachometer feedback

connection is also provided. A fan attached to this connector can be monitored and controlled by the enhanced thermal monitor and fan control device.

RIMM fan (fan 2) Provides +12 V DC for the fan to cool the RIMM modules. A tachometer feedback

connection is also provided. A fan attached to this connector can be monitored and controlled by the enhanced thermal monitor and fan control device.

Processor fan (fan 3) Provides +12 V DC for the processor fan or active fan heatsink. This fan is on in

the S0 or S1 state and is off only when the system is off or in the S3 or S5 state. There are no user controls, however, this fan connector is wired to the fan tachometer input of the SMSC LPC47M102 I/O controller.

Processor voltage regulator fan (fan 4)

Provides +12 V DC for the fan to cool the processor voltage regulator area. This fan is on in the S0 or S1 state and is off only when the system is off or in the S3 or S5 state. There are no user controls.

1.12.2.3 Wake on LAN Technology

CAUTION

For Wake on LAN technology, the 5-V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Wake on LAN technology can damage the power supply. Refer to Section 2.11.3 on page 73 for additional information.

Wake on LAN technology enables remote wakeup of the computer through a network. The LAN subsystem PCI bus network adapter monitors network traffic at the Media Independent Interface.

†

Upon detecting a Magic Packet the computer. Depending on the LAN implementation, the D850GB board supports Wake on LAN technology in the following ways:

• With APM, through the Wake on LAN technology connector

• With ACPI,  through the PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.2 compliant LAN designs  through the onboard LAN subsystem  through a CNR-based LAN subsystem

frame, the LAN subsystem asserts a wakeup signal that powers up

The Wake on LAN technology connector can be used with PCI bus network interface cards that have a remote wake up connector, as shown in Figure 6. Network interface cards that are PCI 2.2 compliant assert the wakeup signal through the PCI bus signal PME# (pin A19 on the PCI bus connectors).

1.12.2.4 Instantly Available Technology

CAUTION

For Instantly Available technology, the 5-V standby line for the power supply must be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby current when implementing Instantly Available technology can damage the power supply. Refer to Section 2.11.3 on page 73 for additional information.

Instantly Available technology enables the D850GB board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-toRAM) sleep-state. While in the S3 sleep-state, the computer will appear to be off (the power supply is off, and the front panel LED is amber if dual-color, or off if single-color.) When signaled by a wake-up device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known wake state. Table 9 on page 36 lists the devices and events that can wake the computer from the S3 state.

The D850GB board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. For information on the versions of this specification, see Section 1.3. Add-in boards that also support this specification can participate in power management and can be used to wake the computer.

The use of Instantly Available technology requires operating system support and PCI 2.2 compliant add-in cards and drivers.

The standby power indicator LED shows that power is still present at the RIMM, PCI bus, AGP, and CNR connectors, even when the computer appears to be off. Figure 7 shows the location of the standby power indicator LED.

1.12.2.5 Resume on Ring

The operation of Resume on Ring can be summarized as follows:

• Resumes operation from either the APM sleep mode or the ACPI S1 or S3 states

• Requires only one call to access the computer

• Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems

• Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation

1.12.2.6 Wake from USB

USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state.

NOTE

✏

Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB.

1.12.2.7 Wake from PS/2 Keyboard

PS/2 keyboard activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state.

Product Description

1.12.2.8 PME# Wakeup Support

When the PME# signal on the PCI bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 state (with BIOS support).

1.12.2.9 Wake on LAN (Legacy)

This provision allows legacy internal LAN cards that require separate internal board connection to support Wake on LAN technology. (More recent PCI LAN cards use the PME# signal available at the PCI connector for this purpose.)

When a Wake on LAN technology supporting LAN card is connected to the Wake on LAN connector, LAN activity wakes the computer from the APM sleep mode, or the ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 states.
