HOT-675Z is a highly integrated IBM PC/AT compatible system board designed to meet
the industry's most demanding desktop applications.
Based on the Intel 440ZX chipset which support up to 500+ MHz Pentium
TM
II/III
processor with MMX technology.
HOT-675Z is equipped with an Accelerated Graphics Port (A.G.P.), a high-performance
interconnect for graphic-intensive application, such as 3D applications. The A.G.P. is
independent of the PCI bus and is designed to exclusively use with graphical-display
devices. The HOT-675Z supports 3.3 V A.G.P. devices with data transfer rates up to
133 MHz, allowing data throughput of 500 MB/sec.
The Intel's 440ZX chipset provides an integrated Bus Mastering IDE controller with two
high performance IDE interfaces which allows up to four IDE devices connection and up
to 33 MB/sec of data transfer rates.
The on-board I/O controller provides standard PC I/O functions:
floppy drive interface, two FIFO serial ports, an IrDA device port and a SPP/EPP/ECP
capable parallel port.
HOT-675Z is built with two PCI local bus slots providing a high bandwidth data path for
data-movement intensive functions such as graphics, and with two ISA slots.
HOT-675Z provides the foundation for cost effective, high performance and highly
expandable platforms, which delivers the latest in the Intel Pentium
TM
II/III processor
and new advanced chipset technology.
