2. Introduction
The M81E-X series is a ATX motherboard that uses 4 layer printed circuit board and measures
305mm*190mm. The motherboard offers the high integration, high performance, high compat-
ibility and power-efficient solution on the powerful Intel Slot1 Pentium
II/III
and SEPP Celeron
series processors. It use the Intel i810E chipset which includes the FW82810E(GMCHE),
FW82801AA(ICH) and N82802AB(Firmware Hub) chip in the ATX form factor.
The principal feature of this motherboard is it can support Slot1 Pentium
II/III
and SEPP
Celeron series processors. It operate at 66/100/133MHz FSB and CPU speeds running from
300MHz up to 733MHz.
The i810E chipset provides full AGP capability with the internal 2D/3D graphics engine for
maximum software compatibility, also support full MPEG-2 motion compensation for software-
assisted DVD video playback and a digital video output that may support(via Chrontel CH7008A
external video Encoder) NTSC and PAL broadcast standards.
This motherbaord feature the suspend to RAM function. In a suspend to RAM, the system is to
totally power down with the exception of the small current required to refresh the system
memory. To resume from a suspend to RAM, press the power button(or use the hot key, or
password, if you have enabled a hot key or password power on). The system will resume in
just a few seconds, and it will appear in exactly the same state as it was before it was suspend
to RAM. Also integrated H/W monitoring and 10/100Mbps Fast Ethernet LAN solution, which
can be configured for either 100Mbps(100Base-TX) or 10Mbps(10Base-T) Ethernet operation.
It provides a RJ-45 port for user to attach the motherboard.
The motherboard has a comprehensive set of intergrated I/O ports. The I/O port array features
PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse ports, a Parallel port, two USB ports, a RJ-45 port, a VGA display
port, a Game-Midi port, three Audio jacks, two Serial ports, an Infrared port(for IrDA or ASKIR),
a FDD port and two PCI IDE ports. Also has two 168-Pin DIMM sockets for the installation 3.3V
unbuffered SDRAM module, it supports a memory bus of 100MHz, so we recommended you
can choose PC-100 compliant for performance and upgrade required. This motherboard of-
fers outstanding hardware capabilities, that provides four PCI(v2.2) slots and an AMR slot.
The fully programmable firmware enhances the system feature like Plug and Play, APM(v1.2)/
ACPI(v1.0), Modem Ring-On, Wake On LAN, control of DPMS and BIOS upgrade ability.
