FEATURES
EP-3VBA Features:
•
EP-3VBA is based on the Mendocino Processor operating at 300 ~
466MHz on PGA370. The board is configured by an ESSJ (Easy-Setting-
Single-Jumper) to match your CPU clock speed.
•
Designed with VIA Apollo Pro+ PCIset.
•
Supports up to 768MB of DRAM (minimum of 8 MB) on board (please
see Section 3-2).
•
EP-3VBA will support Error Checking and Correcting (ECC) when using
parity SDRAM memory modules. This will detect multiple bit errors and
correct 1-bit memory errors.
•
Supports (1) 16 bit ISA slots, (4) 32 bit PCI slots, (1) AGP slot, (1) AMR
slot and provides (2) independent high performance PCI IDE interfaces
capable of supporting PIO Mode 3/4 and Ultra DMA 33/66 devices.
The EP-3VBA supports (4) PCI Bus Master slots and a jumperless PCI
INT# control scheme which reduces configuration confusion when plugging
in PCI card(s).
•
Supports ATAPI (e.g. CD-ROM) devices on both Primary and Secondary
IDE interfaces.
•
Designed with on chip Multi I/O: (1) floppy port, (1) parallel port (EPP,
ECP), and (2) serial ports (16550 Fast UART).
Note: Japanese “Floppy 3 mode” is also supported
•
Features Award Plug & Play BIOS. With Flash Memory you can always
upgrade to the current BIOS as they are released. (http://www.epox.com/

•
EP-3VBA utilizes a Lithium battery which provides environmental protec
tion and longer battery life.
