1-2 Chipset Overview

Intel’s Mukilteo (E7230) chipset, designed for use with the Pentium 4/Pendium D

Processor in the LGA 775 Land Grid Array Package, is comprised of two primary

components: the Memory Controller Hub (MCH) and the I/O Controller Hub (ICH7R).

The PDSMA provides the performance and feature-set required for the high-end

server and the UP workstation market.

Memory Controller Hub (MCH)

The function of the MCH is to manage the data fl ow between four interfaces: the

CPU interface, the DDR2 System Memory Interface, the PCI Express Interface, and

the Direct Media Interface (DMI). The MCH is optimized for the Pentium 4/Pentium

D processor in the 90nm process in the LGA775 Land Grid Array Package. It sup-

ports one or two channels of DDR2 SDRAM.

The I/O Controller (ICH7R) provides the data buffering and interface arbitration re-

quired for the system to operate effi ciently. It also provides the bandwidth needed

for the system to maintain its peak performance. The Direct Media Interface (DMI)

provides the connection between the MCH and the ICH7R. The ICH7R supports

multiple PCI-Express slots, four Serial ATA ports, six USB 2.0 ports and two IDE

devices. In addition, the ICH7R offers the Intel Matrix Storage Technology which

provides various RAID options for data protection and rapid data access. It also

supports the next generation of client management in conjunction with the next

generation Gigabit Ethernet controller.

Intel ICH7R System Features

The I/O Controller Hub provides the I/O subsystem with access to the rest of the

system. Functions and capabilities include:

*Advanced Confi guration and Power Interface, Version 2.0 (ACPI)

*Intel IIO External Design Specifi cation (EDS)

*Mukilteo Memory Controller Hub (MCH) External Design Specifi cation (EDS)

*Intel I/O Controller Hub 7 (ICH7R) Thermal Design Guideline

*Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface

PDSMA User’s Manual

1-3 PC Health Monitoring

This section describes the PC health monitoring features of the PDSMA. The

motherboard has an onboard System Hardware Monitor chip that supports PC

health monitoring.

Onboard Voltage Monitors for the CPU Cores, Chipset Voltage,
Memory Voltage , +3.3V, +3.3V Standby, +5V, +5V Standby, +12V,
and −12V (via SuperO Doctor III)

The onboard voltage monitor will scan these voltages continuously. Once a voltage

becomes unstable, it will give a warning or send an error message to the screen.

The user can adjust the voltage thresholds to defi ne the sensitivity of the voltage

monitor.

Fan Status Monitor with Firmware Speed Control

The PC health monitor can check the RPM status of the cooling fans. The onboard

fans are controlled by Thermal Management via BIOS.

CPU Overheat/Fan Fail LED and Control

This feature is available when the user enables the CPU overheat warning option

in the BIOS. This allows the user to defi ne an overheat temperature. When this

temperature reaches the threshold, the CPU thermal trip feature will be activated,

and it will send a signal to the Speaker LED and, at the same time, the CPU speed

will decrease. It will also activate the alarm if a fan failure occurs.

1-4 Power Confi guration Settings

This section describes the features of Power Confi guration and Power Management

of your motherboard.

Slow Blinking LED for Suspend-State Indicator

When the CPU goes into a suspend state, the chassis power LED will start blinking

to indicate that the CPU is in the suspend mode. When the user presses any key, the

CPU will "wake-up" and the LED will automatically stop blinking and is turned on.

BIOS Support for USB Keyboard

If the USB keyboard is the only keyboard in the system, it will function like a normal

keyboard during system boot-up.

Main Switch Override Mechanism

When an ATX power supply is used, the power button can function as a system

suspend button. When the user presses the power button, the system will enter

a SoftOff state. The monitor will be suspended and the hard drive will spin down.

Chapter 1: Introduction

1-11

Press the power button again to "wake-up" the whole system. During the SoftOff

state, the ATX power supply provides power to the required circuitry and keep the

system "alive." In case the system malfunctions and you want to turn off the power,

just press and hold the power button for 4 seconds. The power will turn off and no

power will be provided to the motherboard.

Wake Ring-On (WOR)

Wake-up events can be triggered by a device such as the external modem ringing

when the system is in the SoftOff state. Note that external modem ring-on can only

be used with an ATX 2.01 (or above) compliant power supply.

Wake-On-LAN (WOL)

Wake-On-LAN is defi ned as the ability of a management application to remotely

power up a computer that is powered off. Remote PC setup, up-dates and asset

tracking can occur after hours and on weekends so that daily LAN traffi c is kept to

a minimum and users are not interrupted. The motherboard has a 3-pin header

(WOL) to connect to the 3-pin header on a Network Interface Card (NIC) that has

WOL capability. Note that Wake-On-LAN can only be used with an ATX 2.01 (or

above) compliant power supply.

1-5 ACPI Features

ACPI stands for Advanced Confi guration and Power Interface. The ACPI specifi ca-

tion defi nes a fl exible and abstract hardware interface that integrates power man-

agement features with other components of a PC system, including its hardware,

operating system and application software. This enables the system to automati-

cally turn on and off peripherals such as CD-ROMs, network cards, hard disk drives

and printers. This also includes other devices connected to the PC such as VCRs,

TVs, telephones and stereos.

In addition to enabling operating system-directed power management, ACPI

provides a generic system event mechanism for Plug and Play and an operating

system-independent interface for confi guration control. ACPI leverages the Plug

and Play BIOS data structures while providing a processor architecture-independent

implementation that is compatible with both Windows and Linux Operating Systems.

1-6 Power Supply

As with all computer products, a stable power source is necessary for proper and

reliable operation. It is even more important for processors that have high CPU

clock rates of 1 GHz and faster.

PDSMA User’s Manual

The

PDSMA accommodates 12V ATX power supplies. Although most

power supplies generally meet the specifi cations required by the CPU, some are

inadequate. A 2 amps of current supply on a 5V Standby rail is strongly recom-

mended. It is strongly recommended that you use a high quality power supply that

meets ATX power supply Specifi cation 2.02 or above. Also your power supply must

supply 1.5A for the Ethernet ports. It must also be SSI compliant (info at http://www.

ssiforum.org/). Additionally, in areas where noisy power transmission is present,

you may choose to install a line fi lter to shield the computer from noise. It is recom-

mended that you also install a power surge protector to help avoid problems caused

by power surges. To provide adequate power supply to the system, the additional

8-pin 12V (JPW2) power is also required.

2-1 Electro-Static Sensitive Devices

Electro-Static Discharge (ESD) can damage electronic com ponents. To prevent

damage to your system board, it is important to handle it very carefully. The following

measures are generally suffi cient to protect your equipment from ESD.

Precautions

• Use a grounded wrist strap designed to prevent static discharge.

• Touch a grounded metal object before removing the board from the antistatic

bag.

• Handle the board by its edges only; do not touch its components, peripheral

chips, memory modules or gold contacts.

• When handling chips or modules, avoid touching their pins.

• Put the motherboard and peripherals back into their antistatic bags when not in

use.

• For grounding purposes, make sure your computer chassis provides excellent

conductivity between the power supply, the case, the mounting fasteners and

the motherboard.

Unpacking

The motherboard is shipped in antistatic packaging to avoid static damage. When

unpacking the board, make sure the person handling it is static protected.

When handling the processor package, avoid placing

direct pressure on the label area of the fan.

(*Notes: 1. Always connect the power cord last and always remove it before adding,

removing or changing any hardware components. Make sure that you install the

processor into the CPU socket before you install the CPU heatsink.

2. Intel's boxed Pentium 4 CPU package contains the CPU fan and heatsink as-

sembly. If you buy a CPU separately, make sure that you use only Intel-certifi ed

multi-directional heat sinks and fans.

3. The Intel Pentium 4/Pentium D LGA 775 heatsink and fan comes with a push-pin

design and no tool is needed for installation.

4. Make sure to install the motherboard into the chassis before you install the CPU

heatsink and fan.)

5. When purchasing an LGA 775 CPU or when receiving a motherboard with an LGA

775 CPU pre-installed, make sure that the CPU plastic cap is in place and none of

the CPU pins are bent; otherwise, contact the retailer immediately.

6. Refer to the MB Features Section for more details on CPU support.

Please note that the North Key and the

South Key are located vertically in the

CPU housing.

4. Position the motherboard in such a way

that Pin 1 of the CPU socket is located at

the left bottom of the CPU housing.

5. Use your thumb and your index fi nger to

hold the CPU at the North Center Edge and

the South Center Edge of the CPU.

6. Align Pin 1 of the CPU with Pin 1 of the

socket. Once aligned, carefully lower the

CPU straight down to the socket. (**Do not

drop the CPU on the socket. Do not move

the CPU horizontally or vertically. Do not

rub the CPU against the surface or against

any pins of the socket to avoid damage to

the CPU or the socket.)

7. With the CPU inside the socket, inspect

the four corners of the CPU to make sure

that the CPU is properly installed.

8. Use your thumb to gently push the lever

down and lock it in the hook.

9. If the CPU is properly installed in the

socket, the plastic cap will be automatically

released from the load plate when the lever

is pushed into the hook. Remove the plastic

cap from the motherboard.

(*Warning: Please keep the plastic

cap. The motherboard and the CPU

must be shipped with the plastic cap prop-

erly installed to protect the CPU pins. Ship-

ment without the CPU plastic cap properly

installed will void the warranty.)

1-4 for the CPU Fan location.)

2. Position the heatsink in such a way

that the heatsink fan wires are closest

to the CPU fan and are not interfered

with other components.

3. Inspect the CPU Fan wires to make

sure that the wires are routed through

the bottom of the heatsink.

4. Remove the thin layer of the protec-

tive fi lm from the copper core of the

heatsink.

(*Warning: CPU overheat may occur if

the protective fi lm is not removed from

the heatsink.)

5. Apply the proper amount of thermal

grease on the CPU. (*Note: if your

heatsink came with a thermal pad,

please skip this step.)

6. If necessary, rearrange the wires

to make sure that the wires are not

pinched between the heatsink and the

CPU. Also make sure to keep clear-

ance between the fan wires and the

fi ns of the heatsink.

7. Align the four heatsink fasteners

with the mounting holes on the mother-

board. Gently push the pairs of diago-

nal fasteners (#1 & #2, and #3 & #4)

2-3 Mounting the Motherboard in the Chassis

All motherboards have standard mounting holes to fi t different types of chassis.

Make sure that the locations of all the mounting holes for both the motherboard and

the chassis match. Although a chassis may have both plastic and metal mounting

fasteners, metal ones are highly recommended because they ground the mother-

board to the chassis. Make sure that the metal standoffs click in or are screwed in

tightly. Then use a screwdriver to secure the motherboard onto the motherboard

tray. (*Note: some components are close to the mounting holes. Please take all

necessary precautionary measures to prevent damage done to these components

when installing the motherboard into the chassis.)

8. Repeat Step 6 to insert all four heatsink

fasteners into the mounting holes.

9. Once all four fasteners are securely

inserted into the mounting holes and the

heatsink is properly installed on the moth-

erboard, connect the heatsink fan wires to

the CPU Fan connector.

1. Unplug the power cord from the power

supply.

2. Disconnect the heatsink fan wires from

the CPU fan header.

3. Use your fi nger tips to gently press on

the fastener cap and turn it counterclock-

wise to make a 1/4 (90

0

) turn, and then pull

the fastener upward to loosen it.

4. Repeat Step 3 to loosen all fasteners

from the mounting holes.

5. With all fasteners loosened, remove the

heatsink from the CPU.

Heatsink Removal

Caution: To avoid damaging the motherboard and its components, please

do not use a force greater than 8 lb/inch on each mounting screw during

motherboard installation.

2-4 Installing DDR II Memory

Memory Module Installation

Exercise extreme care when installing or removing memory modules

to prevent any possible damage.

1. Insert each DDR II memory module vertically into its slot. Pay attention to the

notch along the bottom of the module to prevent inserting the module incor-

rectly. (See support information below.)

2. Gently press down on the memory module until it snaps into place.

Support

The PDSMA supports up to 8 GB of Dual channel, ECC/Non-ECC unbuffered

DDRII 667/533/400 SDRAM. Both interleaved and non-interleaved memory

are supported, so you may populate any number of DIMM slots. (Populating

DIMM#1A,DIMM#1B, and/or DIMM#2A, DIMM#2B with modules of the same

size and of the same type will result in dual channel, two-way interleaved

memory which is faster than the single-channel non-interleaved memory. When

ECC memory is used, it may take 25-40 seconds for the VGA to display.)

Notes:

1. Due to chipset limitation, 8GB Memory can only be supported by the following

operating systems: 32-Bit: Windows 2000 Advanced Server/ 2003 Enterprise

Edition; 64-Bit: Windows Server 2003 Standard/XP Professional x64 Edition/

Server 2003 Enterprise (x64 Edition.)

2. You may install a maximum of 2GB DIMMs on each slot; however, only DDRII

533 MHz 2GB density modules are available for this confi guration.

3. Some old-version of DDR II-667 may not match Intel's On-Die-Temperature

requirement and will automatically be down-graded to run @ 533 MHz, If this

occurs, contact your memory vendor to check the ODT value.

4. Due to OS limitations, some operating systems may not show more than 4 GB

of memory. (See the Memory Availability on Page 2-7.)
