CPU 

Supports AMD

® 

Socket 462 Athlon™ & Duron™ 600MHz~1GHz+ with 266MHz 

EV6 Bus

 designed for Socket 462 technology. 

 

Chipset 

The VIA Apollo KT133 / KT133(A) is a high performance, cost-effective and energy efficient chipset for the implementation of 

computer system with 266MHz system frequencies and based on 64-bit Socket 462 CPU. The VIA Apollo KT133 / KT133(A) 

integrates VIA’s VT82C694X system controller and provides superior performance between the CPU, DRAM, AGP bus and PCI 

bus. 

 

Expansion Slots 

Including three 32-bit/33MHz PCI and one AGP 4X slots. The 

PCI

 local bus throughput can be up to 132MB/s. The Accelerated 

Graphics Port (AGP) specification provides a new level of video display sophistication and speed. The 

AGP

 video cards support 

data transfer rate up to 1066MB/s. As MK33 II / MK33 II(A) includes one AGP expansion slot for a bus mastering AGP graphic card, 

For AD and SBA signaling, MK33 II / MK33 II(A) can support 133MHz 2X/4X mode. 

 

Memory 

The MK33 II / MK33 II(A) supports standard 

SDRAM

 and 

VCM

, in a flexible mix/ match manner. The SDRAM interface allows zero 

wait state bursting between the DRAM and the data buffers at 66/100/133MHz. The four banks of can be composed of an arbitrary 

mixture of 1M/2M/4M/8M/16MxN DRAMs. The DRAM controller can run at either the host CPU bus frequency (66/100/133MHz) or 

pseudo-synchronous to the CPU bus frequency with built-in PLL timing control.
