Board Installation
Note:
The image above is used to illustrate a concept and may not represent the actual
image of your motherboard.
The Tomcat i810e uses a 64-bit data path from memory to CPU and can
accommodate up to 512MB of SDRAM. The 168-pin DIMMs (Dual In-line
Memory Modules) must be of the 3.3V,
unbuffered
variety. The position of the
notch in the SDRAM key position will tell you whether or not a DIMM is
unbuffered (see the Figure 2-5 below). All installed memory will be automati-
cally detected, so there is no need to set any jumpers.
Some details of memory installation:
The mainboard supports 32MB, 64MB, 128MB SDRAM; and supports
256MB registered SDRAM DIMM modules, but not in combination with
non-registered modules.
PC-100 DIMM is required
