1-20 System Overview
Video
The onboard super VGA controller (PCI) is a high-performance SVGA
subsystem that supports:
BIOS compatibility with VGA, EGA, CGA, Hercules Graphics, and
MDA
2 MB of Video Memory
16-bit bus for high-speed display memory access
Hardware accelerated bit block transfers (BITBLT)
72Hz refresh, non-interlaced at: 640x480, 800x600, or 1280x1024
resolutions
Up to 16M colors at 640x480 and 800x600 resolutions, 64K colors at
1024x768 resolutions and 256 colors at 1280x1024 resolutions with the
optional 2 MB video memory.
Note: SVGA drivers may be required to use the high-
performance video modes.
SCSI Controller
The system I/O board includes a single Ultra2-wide SCSI-2 controller (LSI
Logic SYM53C875) integrated as a PCI bus master. This controller supports
data paths of 8-bit (fast/narrow SCSI) at a data transfer rate of 10 MB/sec and
16-bit (fast/wide or ultra /wide SCSI) at a data transfer rate of 20 MB/sec or 40
MB/sec. As a PCI bus master, this controller supports burst data transfer rates
up to the maximum of 133 MB/sec.
Peripheral Controller
The advanced integrated peripheral controller supports two serial ports and one
parallel port through the I/O riser board (see Figure 1-6, A). The advanced
integrated peripheral controller also supports the connection of two diskette
drives (see Figure 1-6, I).
External Device Connectors
The I/O panel provides connectors for a PS/2 compatible mouse and a keyboard,
connectors for VGA monitor, two serial port connectors, parallel printer port
connector, and a USB interface connector. It also provides a narrow SCSI
external connector.
Keyboard and Mouse
The keyboard/mouse controller is PS/2-compatible.
