Introduction

Pentium® II or Pentium® III Processor

MS7132A

Overview

The Pentium® II or Pentium® III Processor is the follow-on to the Pentium

®

Processor. The Pentium® II or Pentium® III Processor, like the Pentium® Pro
processor, implements a Dynamic Execution micro-architecture -- a unique
combination of multiple branch prediction, data flow analysis, and speculative
execution. This enables the Pentium® II Processor to deliver higher performance
than the Pentium® processor, while maintaining binary compatibility with all
previous Intel architecture processors.

®

A significant feature of the Pentium

II or Pentium® III Processor, from a system
perspective, is the built-in direct multiprocessing support. In order to achieve
multiprocessing, and maintain the memory and I/O bandwidth to support it, new
system designs are needed. For systems with dual processors, it is important to
consider the additional power burdens and signal integrity issues of supporting
multiple loads on a high speed bus. The Pentium® II or Pentium® III Processor
can supports both uni-processor and dual processor implementations.

®

The Pentium

II or Pentium® III Processor utilizes Single Edge Contact (S.E.C.)
(Figure 1) cartridge packaging technology. The S.E.C. cartridge allows the L2
cache to remain tightly coupled to the processor, while maintaining flexibility when
implementing high performance processors into OEM systems. The second level
cache is performance optimized and tested at the cartridge level. The S.E.C.
cartridge utilizes surface mounted core components and a printed circuit board
with an edge finger connection. The S.E.C. cartridge package introduced on the
Pentium® II Processor will also be used in future Slot 1 processors.

The S.E.C. cartridge has the following features: a thermal plate, a cover and a
PCB with an edge finger connection. The thermal plate allows standardized
heatsink attachment or customized thermal solutions. The thermal plate enables a
reusable heatsink to minimize fit issues for serviceability, upgradeability and
replacement. The full enclosure also protects the surface mount components.
The edge finger connection maintains socketabilty for system configuration. The
edge finger connector is denoted as ‘Slot 1 connector’ in this and other
documentation.

Introduction

The entire enclosed product is called the Pentium® II or Pentium® III Processor.
The packaging technology and each of the physical elements of the product are
referred to using accurate technical descriptions. This allows clear reference to
the products as just a processor. This is the model used in past packaging tech­nologies like PGA, TCP, PQFP, DIP, etc.

S.E.C. Cartridge Terminology

• Pentium® II or Pentium® III Processor
The new enclosed card packaging technology is called a “Single Edge
Contact cartridge.” This is similar to previous names for packaging
technology such as PGA or TCP.

• Processor card
The green PCB (with or without components on it)

• Processor core
The silicon on the PLGA package on the PCB

• Cover
The plastic cover on the opposite side from the thermal plate.

• Slot 1
The slot that the S.E.C. cartridge plugs into, just as the Pentium

®

processor uses Socket 8.

• Retention mechanism
Formerly ‘retention module’ the dual posts, etc. that holds the cartridge in
place.

• Thermal plate
The heatsink attach­ment plate.

• Heat sink supports
The support pieces that
are mounted on the
mainboard to provide
added support for
heatsinks.

Introduction

MS7132A

The L2 cache (T agRAM, PBSRAM) components keep standard industry names.

®

The Pentium

II or Pentium® III Processor is the first product to utilize the S.E.C.
cartridge technology and Slot 1 connector. Unless otherwise noted, any references
to “Pentium® II Processor”, “Pentium® II or Pentium® III Processor/Slot 1 proces­sor” or “Pentium® III Processor” will apply to both the Pentium® II Processor
desktop processors.

Accelerated Graphics Port
(AGP or A.G.P.)

T ypically, 3D graphics rendering requires a tremendous amount of memory, and
demands ever increasing throughput speed as well. As 3D products for the
personal computer become more and more popular, these demands will only
increase. This will cause a rise in costs for both end users and manufacturers.
Lowering these costs as well as improving performance is the primary motivation
behind AGP. By providing a massive increase in the bandwidth available between
the video card and the processor, it will assist in relieving some of these pressures
for quite sometime.

Hardware Monitoring

Hardware monitoring allows you to monitor various aspects of your systems
operations and status. The features include CPU temperature, voltage and RPM
of fan.

MS7132A

Introduction

MS7132A Form-Factor

The MS7132A is designed with ATX form factor - the new industry standard of
chassis. ATX form factor is essentially a Baby-A T baseboard rotated 90 degrees
within the chassis enclosure and a new mounting configuration for the power
supply . W ith these changes the processor is relocated away from the expansion
slots, allowing them all to hold full length add-in cards. ATX defines a double
height aperture to the rear of the chassis which can be used to host a wide range
of onboard I/O. Only the size and position of this aperture is defined, allowing
PC manufacturers to add new I/O features (e.g.; TV input, TV output, joystick,
modem, LAN, etc.) to systems. This will help systems integrators differentiate
their products in the marketplace, and better meet your needs.

• By integrating more I/O down onto the board and better positioning the hard

drive and floppy connectors material cost of cables and add-in cards is
reduced.

• By reducing the number of cables and components in the system, manufac-

turing time and inventory holding costs are reduced and reliability will
increase.

• By using an optimized power supply, it's possible to reduce cooling costs and

lower acoustical noise. An ATX power supply, which has a side-mounted fan,
allows direct cooling of the processor and add-in cards making a secondary
fan or active heatsink unnecessary in most system applications.

The MS7132A has a single 20-pin connector for ATX power supplies. For ATX
power supplies that support the Remote On/Off feature, this should be connected
to the systems front panel for system Power On/Off button. The systems power
On/Off button should be a momentary button that is normally open.

The MS7132A has been designed with “Soft Off" functions. You can turn Off the
system from one of two sources: The first is the front panel Power On/Off
button, and the other is the "Soft Off" function (coming from the MS7132A’s
onboard circuit controller) that can be controlled by the operating system. Win­dows 95/98 will control this when the user clicks that they are ready to Shutdown
the system.

System Memory Configuration

Memory Layout

The MS7132A supports (3) PC133 168-pin DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory
Module). The DIMMs can be either EDO (Enhanced Data Out) or SDRAM
(Synchronized DRAM).

• DIMM SDRAM may be 83MHz (12ns), 100MHz (10ns) or

125MHz (8ns) bus speed.

• If you use both 50ns and 60ns memory you must configure

your BIOS to read 60ns.

• When using Synchronous DRAM we recommend using the

4 clock variety over the 2 clock.

Figure 2 and Table 1 show several possible memory configurations using both
SIMM and DIMM.

Section 3-3
Installing a Pentium II/III Processor

The MS7132A uses the Single Edge Contact (SEC) slot for a Pentium® II/III
processor packaged in an SEC cartridge. The SEC slot is not compatible with
other non-Pentium II/III processors.

Please have ready the following list of components so that we may install the
processor onto the motherboard.

1. Heat sink support (top/bottom piece)

®

2. Pentium

II/III processor heat sink

3. Intel Pentium II/III Processor

OK, now that you have all of your components ready, we can start.

First, please refer to figure 6 below, and follow the direction to lift up the
fixed foldable pentium

®

II/III Retention Mechanism. This pre-installed
device is designed for you to install Pentium® II/III CPU more easier and
to avoide any damage on the board due to overtightening the four screws.

One thing must be kept in your mind that please make sure to lift upright
the foldable parts of the Retention module to fit and install CPU properly.

Figure 6

Now we are going to install the heatsink support base piece (figure 7) onto the
motherboard. There is both a large and small hole (figure 8) so that the base
will only fit in one direction. This piece needs to be pushed into the holes
firmly until it is seated.

Now we are ready to install the SEC Cartridge (Pentium

®

II/III Processor) into
the Retention Module. The SEC Cartridge is mounted by sliding the SEC
Cartridge into the Retention Module and letting it slide all the way down. Once
it reaches the bottom make sure you press firmly on SEC cartridge to firmly
secure into the Slot 1 Socket.

Page 3-7

Installation

MS7132A

Now we need to secure the heatsink with the top half of the support (figure 9).
Take the top piece of the support and slide it into the bottom fin (figure 9) on
the heatsink and then push forward until it clips into the bottom base (figure 7)
that is already there (figure 9).
