User's Manual 4
HOT-617 mainboard is a highly integrated IBM PC/AT compatible system board. The design
will accept Intel Pentium Pro processors with size of 256KB and 512KB cache. The memory
subsystem is designed to support up to 512 MB of EDO, Burst EDO, and Fast Page Mode
DRAM Module in standard 72-pin SIMM socket. A type 8 Pentium processor socket
provides access to future processor enhancements.
HOT-617 mainboard provides a new level of I/O integration. Intel's 82440FX PCIset chipset
provides increased integration and improved performance over other chipset designs. The
82440FX PCIset chipset provides an integrated Bus Mastering IDE controller with two high
performance IDE interfaces for up to four IDE devices.
The onboard Giga I/O controller provides the advanced and standard PC I/O functions:
keyboard controller, floppy interface, Real Time Clock, two FIFO serial ports, an IrDA device
port and a SPP/EPP/ECP capable parallel port.
Up to five PCI local bus slots provide a high bandwidth data path for data-movement
intensive functions such as graphics, and up to three ISA slots complete the I/O function.
The HOT-617 mainboard provides the foundation for cost effective, high performance, highly
expandable platforms, which deliver the latest in Pentium Pro processor and I/O standard.
