Overview
1-2
answer a phone call such as answering machine or to send/receive fax. The
most important break through is not only external box modem but also internal
modem card can be used to support Modem Wake Up. The MX6E PLUS and
MP56 internal modem card implement special circuit (patent applied) to make
sure the modem card work properly without any power.
LAN Wake Up
This feature is very similar as Modem Wake Up, but it is through
local area network. To use LAN Wake Up function, you must have a network
card that supports this feature and also need to install a network management
software, such as ADM.
RTC Wake Up Timer
The Wake Up Timer is more like an alarm, which wakes
up and power on your system at a pre-defined time for specific application. It
can be set to wake up everyday or on specific date within a month. The
date/time accurate is second.
High Efficient Synchronous Switching Regulator
Most of the current
switching designs are Asynchronous mode, which from the technical point of
view, still consumes very high power as well as heat. MX6E PLUS implements
high efficient synchronous switching design that the temperature of MOS FET
is far less than Schottky diode of Asynchronous design.
Over Current Protection Circuit
The Over Current Protection was very
popular implemented on the Baby AT or ATX 3.3V/5V/12V switching power
supply. But unfortunately, the new generation Pentium II CPU uses different
voltage that have regulator to transfer 5V to CPU voltage (for example, 2.8V),
and make 5V over current protection useless. MX6E PLUS with switching
regulator onboard support CPU over current protection, in conjunction with
3.3V/5V/12V power supply provide the full line over current protection.
CPU and Housing Fan Monitoring
MX6E PLUS has one more "fan
monitoring" function to prevent system overheat. There are two fan connectors,
one is for CPU and the other can be an extra housing fan. The system will
report and alarm fan malfunction though utility software such as Hardware
Monitor utility (Small Icon for Hardware Monitoring).
CPU Thermal Protection
MX6E PLUS has a special thermal detection circuit
to have warning through application software when the temperature is higher
than a predefined value.
System Voltage Monitoring
Further more, MX6E PLUS implements a voltage
monitoring system, As you turn on your system, this smart design will continue
to monitor your system working voltage. If any of the system voltage is over the
component's standard. There will be alarm though utility software such as
Hardware Monitor utility (Small Icon for Hardware Monitoring) for a warning to
user.
Full-range CPU core voltage
This motherboard supports the CPU core
voltage from 1.3V to 3.5V, that can be applied to various CPU type in future.
