8 Introduction
COM1 and COM2 with ISA I/O base addresses of 3F8h and 2F8h
respectively. This default configuration also assigns COM1 to
IRQ4 and COM2 to IRQ3. The NuPRO-842 serial controller
resides in the W83627HF Super I/O device.
IEEE-1284 Parallel Port/Printer Interface
The parallel I/O interface signals are routed to a 26-pin connector
on the board. This port supports the full IEEE-1284 specifications
and provides the basic printer interface.
Firmware will initialize the parallel port as LPT1 with ISA I/O base
address of 378h. This default configuration also assigns the paral-
lel port to IRQ7. The printer interface mode (Normal, Extended,
EPP, or ECP) is selectable through the BIOS SETUP utility with
the W83627HF Super I/O device managing the NuPRO-842’s par-
allel port.
Universal Serial Bus (USB)
NuPRO-842 supports 6 USB2.0 serial ports backward compatible
to USB1.x.One USB port is on the faceplate and others with pin
header. USB allows for the easy addition of peripherals such as
mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc. Transfer rates up to 480Mb/s
are supported. Full-speed connections (480Mb/s) require shielded
and tested cables. NuPRO-842 will provide the standard 0.5A at
5V to the peripherals.
IDE Controller and Floppy Interface Controller
The NuPRO-842 includes an IDE Controller (in the ICH4) and a
Floppy Disk Controller (in the W83627HF). The IDE Controller pro-
vides support for internal or external IDE drives. Signals are avail-
able at the IDE connectors CN14 and CN13 and are routed to a
40-pin header. The FDD Controller provides support for an exter-
nal FDD drives. Signals are available at the FDD connector CN12
and are routed to a 34-pin header.
Keyboard/Mouse Controller
The NuPRO-842 includes an onboard PC/AT keyboard and
mouse controller. The keyboard/mouse signals are available
