3.1 Processor and CPU Voltage
The AI5VG+ is designed to take a Pentium Processor with a bus speed of
60, 66, 75, 83 and 100 MHz. The internal clock of the CPU can be
multiples of 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4 and 4.5 of the bus clock, the CPU
frequency can be 90 to 300MHz.
The onboard CPU voltage regulator provides support for CPUs Vcore
which require voltage other than 3.3V such as 2.8V, and/or power
consumption higher than 10 watts.
3.2 L2 Cache Memory
The AI5VG+ supports 512KB P.B. (Pipelined Burst) Synchronous
Cache. The P.B. Synchronous Cache boosts the system’s performance,
10% higher than regular Asynchronous Cache.
3.3 Main Memory
The AI5VG+ motherboard supports two 72-pin SIMMs and three
168-pin DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory Module) sockets. The DRAMs
for the SIMM sockets can be 4MB, 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, and 64MB in
EDO and FPM types. DIMM modules can be 8MB, 16MB, 32MB,
64MB and 128MB in EDO DRAM or SDRAM type.
The following should be noted when populating the SIMM/DIMM
sockets:
1. Each bank**
should consist of the same size SIMMs.
2. Each bank should consist of the same type SIMMs. For example,
SIMM1 and SIMM2 are both be EDO or Page Mode.
3. Each bank consists of two SIMM slots or one DIMM slot. For
example, SIMM 1 and SIMM 2 are considered as one bank and
DIMM 1 as another one.
