2.3.3 Processor Electrical Interfaces
The supported processors have the following electrical interfaces:
HyperTransport™ technology: LVDS-like differential, unidirectional
DDR2 SDRAM: SSTL_1.8 per JEDEC specification
Clock, reset, and test signals also use DDR2
SDRAM-like electrical specifications.
2.3.4 Processor Power Management
The supported processors have the following power management features:
Multiple low-power states including Deeper Sleep (C1E with AltVID)
System Management Mode (SMM)
ACPI compliant, including support for processor performance states
AMD PowerNow!™ technology is designed to dynamically switch between
multiple low-power states based on application performance requirements.
2.4 AMD 690G Northbridge Chipset
2.4.1 PCI Express Interface
The AMD 690G PCIe bus is compliant with the PCI Express 1.1a. Three of the four AMD
690G lanes are implemented on the KINO-690S1 motherboard. One of these lanes is
interfaced to a PCIe x1 expansion slot. Two other PCIe x1 lanes are interfaced to two
Broadcom PCIe GbE controllers.
2.4.1.1 PCIe x1 Expansion
One PCIe x1 lane from the AMD 690G is interfaced to a PCIe x1 expansion slot. See
Figure 2-5 . A standard PCIe x1 can be inserted into the slot to provide additional
functionality to the system.
