Overview
The S1576S is a quality, high performance mainboard designed for
Intel Pentium microprocessors. This mainboard utilizes the Intel
430TX chipset and can support CPU speeds of 75MHz through
233MHz. The S1576S will also support the Cyrix M1 (6x86) and M2
(6x86MX) CPU’s, the AMD K5 and K6 CPU’s, and the Intel multime-
dia Pentium P55C and P54CTB (MMX Overdrive) CPU’s.
The S1576S’s PCI Local Bus provides high performance capabilities
that are ideal for a wide range of demanding applications such as
CAD, CAM, CAE, networking, multi-user environments, database
management, desktop publishing, image processing and 3D animation.
This integrated system board achieves high reliability with numerous
features and yet is small enough to be supported in an ATX form-
factor. Some of the features included are onboard dual channel PCI
PIO, BUS Master IDE and UltraDMA/33, onboard floppy controller,
onboard high speed I/O, and support for pipeline-burst SRAM.
