Chapter 1 Introduction
1-1 6MZX1 Main Board Overview
6MZX1 is a new-generation AGPset Pentium® II main board with high
performance in rendering and texture for 3D Graphics. Using the slot 1 socket,
6MZX1 accepts Intel® Pentium® II (66/100 MHz) processors at speeds from
233MHz to 450 MHz and is able to support faster CPUs upgraded in the future.
Built-in second level (L2) cache in CPU, there is no cache necessary in this system
board. .Based on Intel i440ZX chipset, 6MZX1 has integrated the latest advances
in processor (66MHz & 100 MHz F.S.B), memory, I/O technologies into a
microATX form factor. microATX form factor contributes to a low-cost system
into a smaller size. 6MZX1 is also designed for multimedia functions containing
LGS Semicon MPACT™2, which makes it a big difference among all the
Pentium® II main boards.
6MZX1 utilizes Intel i440ZX chipset and supports new architects such as SDRAM
memory (66MHz & 100 MHz), Ultra DMA/33, bus master IDE and USB ports. It
supports two 3.3V “single and double density” DIMMS at 66 MHz or 100 MHz.
The memory subsystem supports up to either 256 MB SDRAM or 512 MB EDO
RAM of non-buffered 3.3V DIMM into the 2 standard 168-pin DIMM sockets.
I440ZX does not support Memory Error Correction Checking (ECC).
6MZX1 implements high-performance I/O Controller utilizes with fully Plug and
Play device which supports 2.88 MB Floppy, Dual 16550 Compatible (with 16
bytes FIFO, up to 460K baud rate) Serial Port, ECP (Extended Capabilities Port),
EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port ) parallel port, Infrared IrDA (HPSIR), and
Amplitude Shift Keyed IR. (ASKIR) port.
