memory.
• Minimum total system memory: 1 GB using 1 Gb x8 module
• Serial Presence Detect
• DDR3 1333 MHz and DDR3 1066 MHz SDRAM DIMMs
NOTE
To be fully compliant with all applicable DDR SDRAM memory specifications, the board
should be populated with DIMMs that support the Serial Presence Detect (SPD) data
structure. This allows the BIOS to read the SPD data and program the chipset to
accurately configure memory settings for optimum performance. If non-SPD memory
is installed, the BIOS will attempt to correctly configure the memory settings, but
performance and reliability may be impacted or the DIMMs may not function under the
determined frequency.

1.5.1 Memory Configurations

The 3 generation Intel Core processor family and 2nd generation Intel Core processor
rd
family processors support the following types of memory organization:

• Dual channel (Interleaved) mode. This mode offers the highest throughput for
real world applications. Dual channel mode is enabled when the installed memory
capacities of both DIMM channels are equal. Technology and device width can vary
from one channel to the other but the installed memory capacity for each channel
must be equal. If different speed DIMMs are used between channels, the slowest
memory timing will be used.
• Single channel (Asymmetric) mode. This mode is equivalent to single channel
bandwidth operation for real world applications. This mode is used when only a
single DIMM is installed or the memory capacities are unequal. Technology and
device width can vary from one channel to the other. If different speed DIMMs are
used between channels, the slowest memory timing will be used.

1.6.1.2 Digital Visual Interface (DVI-D)

The DVI-D port supports only digital DVI displays. The maximum supported resolution
is 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz refresh. The DVI-D port is compliant with the DVI 1.0
specification.
19
1.7 USB
The board supports up to eight USB 2.0 ports. The port arrangement is as follows:
• Four USB 2.0 ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors
• Four USB 2.0 front panel ports are implemented through two dual-port internal
headers
All eight USB ports are high-speed, full-speed, and low-speed capable.
NOTE
Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not
meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use a
shielded cable that meets the requirements for full-speed devices.

Product Description
1.12 Real-Time Clock Subsystem

A coin-cell battery (CR2032) powers the real-time clock and CMOS memory. When
the computer is not plugged into a wall socket, the battery has an estimated life of
three years. When the computer is plugged in, the standby current from the power
supply extends the life of the battery.
The clock is accurate to ± 13 minutes/year at 25 ºC with power applied through the
power supply 5V STBY rail.
NOTE
If the battery and AC power fail, date and time values will be reset and the user will be
notified during POST.
When the voltage drops below a certain level, the BIOS Setup program settings stored
in CMOS RAM (for example, the date and time) might not be accurate. Replace the
battery with an equivalent one. Figure 1 on page 13 shows the location of the battery.

1.15 Power Management

Power management is implemented at several levels, including:
• Software support through Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI)
• Hardware support:
 Power connector
 Fan headers
 LAN wake capabilities
 Instantly Available PC technology
 Wake from USB
 PCI Express WAKE# signal support
 Wake from serial port
 Wake from PS/2
 Wake from S5
1.15.1 ACPI
ACPI gives the operating system direct control over the power management and Plug
and Play functions of a computer. The use of ACPI with this board requires an
operating system that provides full ACPI support. ACPI features include:
• Plug and Play (including bus and device enumeration)
• Power management control of individual devices, add-in boards (some add-in
boards may require an ACPI-aware driver), video displays, and hard disk drives
• Methods for achieving less than 15-watt system operation in the power-on/standby
sleeping state
• A Soft-off feature that enables the operating system to power-off the computer
• Support for multiple wake-up events (see Table 8 on page 30)
• Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch
Table 6 lists the system states based on how long the power switch is pressed,
depending on how ACPI is configured with an ACPI-aware operating system.

Product Description
1.15.1.1 System States and Power States

Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state
transitions. The operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based
on user preferences and knowledge of how devices are being used by applications.
Devices that are not being used can be turned off. The operating system uses
information from applications and user settings to put the system as a whole into a
low-power state.
Table 7 lists the power states supported by the board along with the associated
system power targets. See the ACPI specification for a complete description of the
various system and power states.

Product Description
1.15.2 Hardware Support
CAUTION
Ensure that the power supply provides adequate +5 V standby current if LAN wake
capabilities and Instantly Available PC technology features are used. Failure to do so
can damage the power supply. The total amount of standby current required depends
on the wake devices supported and manufacturing options.
The board provides several power management hardware features, including:
• Power connector
• Fan headers
• LAN wake capabilities
• Instantly Available PC technology
• Wake from USB
• WAKE# signal wake-up support
• Wake from serial port
• Wake from PS/2
• Wake from S5
LAN wake capabilities and Instantly Available PC technology require power from the
+5 V standby line.
NOTE
The use of Wake from USB from an ACPI state requires an operating system that
provides full ACPI support.
1.15.2.1 Power Connector

ATX12V-compliant power supplies can turn off the system power through system
control. When an ACPI-enabled system receives the correct command, the power
supply removes all non-standby voltages.
When resuming from an AC power failure, the computer returns to the power state it
was in before power was interrupted (on or off). The computer’s response can be set
using the Last Power State feature in the BIOS Setup program’s Boot menu.

1.15.2.2 Fan Headers

The function/operation of the fan headers is as follows:
• The fans are on when the board is in the S0 state
• The fans are off when the board is in the S3, S4, or S5 state
• Each fan header is wired to a fan tachometer input of the hardware monitoring and
fan control ASIC
• All fan headers support closed-loop fan control that can adjust the fan speed or
switch the fan on or off as needed
• All fan headers have a +12 V DC connection
• 4-pin fan headers are controlled by Pulse Width Modulation

1.15.2.3 LAN Wake Capabilities
CAUTION
For LAN wake capabilities, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must be capable
of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate standby
current when implementing LAN wake capabilities can damage the power supply.
LAN wake capabilities enable remote wake-up of the computer through a network.
The LAN subsystem monitors network traffic at the Media Independent Interface.
Upon detecting a Magic Packet* frame, the LAN subsystem asserts a wake-up signal
that powers up the computer.
32
Product Description
1.15.2.4 Instantly Available PC Technology
CAUTION
For Instantly Available PC technology, the +5 V standby line for the power supply must
be capable of providing adequate +5 V standby current. Failure to provide adequate
standby current when implementing Instantly Available PC technology can damage the
power supply.
Instantly Available PC technology enables the board to enter the ACPI S3 (Suspend-to-
RAM) sleep-state. While in the S3 sleep-state, the computer will appear to be off (the
power supply is off and the front panel power LED will behave as configured by the
BIOS “S3 State Indicator” option). When signaled by a wake-up device or event, the
system quickly returns to its last known wake state. Table 8 on page 30 lists the
devices and events that can wake the computer from the S3 state.
The board supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification. Add-in
boards that also support this specification can participate in power management and
can be used to wake the computer.
The use of Instantly Available PC technology requires operating system support and
PCI 2.2 compliant add-in cards, PCI Express add-in cards, and drivers.
1.15.2.5 Wake from USB

USB bus activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state.
NOTE
Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB
and is supported by the operating system.
1.15.2.6 WAKE# Signal Wake-up Support

When the WAKE# signal on a PCI Express add-in card is asserted, the computer wakes
from an ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state.
1.15.2.7 Wake from Serial Port

Serial port activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3 state.
1.15.2.8 Wake from PS/2 Devices

PS/2 device activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S3, S4, or S5 state. However,
when the computer is in an S4 or S5 state, the only PS/2 activity that will wake the
computer is the alt-PrtScrn key combination on the keyboard.
1.15.2.9 Wake from S5

When the RTC Date and Time is set in the BIOS, the computer will automatically wake
from an ACPI S5 state.

2.1 Memory Resources

2.1.1 Addressable Memory
The board utilizes 16 GB of addressable system memory. Typically the address space
that is allocated for PCI Express configuration space, BIOS (SPI Flash device), and
chipset overhead resides above the top of DRAM (total system memory). On a system
that has 16 GB of system memory installed, it is not possible to use all of the installed
memory due to system address space being allocated for other system critical
functions. These functions include the following:
• BIOS/SPI Flash device (32 Mb)
• Local APIC (19 MB)
• Direct Media Interface (40 MB)
• PCI Express configuration space (256 MB)
• PCH base address registers PCI Express ports (up to 256 MB)
• Memory-mapped I/O that is dynamically allocated for PCI Express add-in cards
(256 MB)
The board provides the capability to reclaim the physical memory overlapped by the
memory mapped I/O logical address space. The board remaps physical memory from
the top of usable DRAM boundary to the 4 GB boundary to an equivalent sized logical
address range located just above the 4 GB boundary. Figure 7 shows a schematic of
the system memory map. All installed system memory can be used when there is no
overlap of system addresses.

2.2 Connectors and Headers
CAUTION
Only the following connectors and headers have overcurrent protection: back panel
and front panel USB and PS/2.
The other internal connectors and headers are not overcurrent protected and should
connect only to devices inside the computer’s chassis, such as fans and internal
peripherals. Do not use these connectors or headers to power devices external to the
computer’s chassis. A fault in the load presented by the external devices could cause
damage to the computer, the power cable, and the external devices themselves.
Furthermore, improper connection of USB header single wire connectors may
eventually overload the overcurrent protection and cause damage to the board.
This section describes the board’s connectors. The connectors can be divided into
these groups:
• Back panel I/O connectors
• Component-side I/O connectors and headers (see page 39)

Technical Reference
2.2.2.3 Power Supply Connectors

The board has the following power supply connectors:
• Main power – a 2 x 12 connector. This connector is compatible with 2 x 10
connectors previously used on Intel Desktop boards. The board supports the use
of ATX12V power supplies with either 2 x 10 or 2 x 12 main power cables. When
using a power supply with a 2 x 10 main power cable, pins 11, 12, 23, and
24 must remain unconnected.
• Processor core power – a 2 x 2 connector. This connector provides power
directly to the processor voltage regulator and must always be used. Failure to do
so will prevent the board from booting.
CAUTION
If a high power (75 W or greater) add-in card is installed in the PCI Express x16
connector, that card must also be connected directly to the power supply. Failure to
do so may cause damage to the board and the add-in card.

2.5 Electrical Considerations

2.5.1 Power Supply Considerations
CAUTION
The +5 V standby line from the power supply must be capable of providing adequate
+5 V standby current. Failure to do so can damage the power supply. The total
amount of standby current required depends on the wake devices supported and
manufacturing options.
Additional power required will depend on configurations chosen by the integrator.
The power supply must comply with the indicated parameters of the ATX form factor
specification.
• The potential relation between 3.3 VDC and +5 VDC power rails
• The current capability of the +5 VSB line
• All timing parameters
• All voltage tolerances
For example, for a system consisting of a supported 95 W processor (see Section 1.3
on page 16 for information on supported processors), 16 GB DDR3 RAM, , one hard
disk drive, one optical drive, and all board peripherals enabled, the minimum
recommended power supply is 150 W. Table 22 lists the recommended power supply
current values.

2.5.2 Fan Header Current Capability
CAUTION
The processor fan must be connected to the processor fan header, not to a chassis fan
header. Connecting the processor fan to a chassis fan header may result in onboard
component damage that will halt fan operation.
Table 23 lists the current capability of the fan headers.
Table 23. Fan Header Current Capability

Fan Header Maximum Available Current
Processor fan 2.0 A
Rear chassis fan 1.5 A
2.5.3 Add-in Board Considerations

The board is designed to provide 2 A (average) of current for each add-in board from
the +5 V rail. The total +5 V current draw for add-in boards for a fully loaded board
(all expansion slots filled) must not exceed the system’s power supply +5 V maximum
current.
50
Technical Reference
2.6 Thermal Considerations
CAUTION
A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 38 oC at the processor fan
inlet is required. Use of a processor heat sink that provides omni-directional airflow to
maintain required airflow across the processor voltage regulator area is highly
recommended. For a list of chassis that have been tested with Intel desktop boards
please refer to the following website:
http://www3.intel.com/cd/channel/reseller/asmo-na/eng/tech_reference/53211.htm
All responsibility for determining the adequacy of any thermal or system design
remains solely with the reader. Intel makes no warranties or representations that
merely following the instructions presented in this document will result in a system
with adequate thermal performance.
CAUTION
The ambient temperature must not exceed the board’s maximum operating
temperature. Failure to do so could cause components to exceed their maximum case
temperature and malfunction. For information about the maximum operating
temperature, see the environmental specifications in Section 2.8.
CAUTION
Ensure that proper airflow is maintained in the processor voltage regulator circuit.
Failure to do so may result in damage to the voltage regulator circuit.

3 Overview of BIOS Features
3.1 Introduction
The board uses an Intel BIOS that is stored in a 32 Mb (8.192 KB) Serial Peripheral
Interface Flash Memory (SPI Flash) device which can be updated using a set of
utilities. The SPI Flash contains the BIOS Setup program, POST, LAN EEPROM
information, Plug and Play support, and other firmware.
The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision
code. The initial production BIOSs are identified as HOH6110H.86A.
The BIOS Setup program can be used to view and change the BIOS settings for the
computer. The BIOS Setup program is accessed by pressing the <F2> key after the
Power-On Self-Test (POST) memory test begins and before the operating system boot
begins. The menu bar is shown below.
Maintenance Main Configuration Performance Security Power Boot Exit
NOTE
The maintenance menu is displayed only when the board is in configure mode.
Section 2.3 on page 47 shows how to put the board in configure mode.

Overview of BIOS Features
3.2 System Management BIOS (SMBIOS)

SMBIOS is a Desktop Management Interface (DMI) compliant method for managing
computers in a managed network.
The main component of SMBIOS is the Management Information Format (MIF)
database, which contains information about the computing system and its
components. Using SMBIOS, a system administrator can obtain the system types,
capabilities, operational status, and installation dates for system components. The
MIF database defines the data and provides the method for accessing this information.
The BIOS enables applications such as third-party management software to use
SMBIOS. The BIOS stores and reports the following SMBIOS information:
• BIOS data, such as the BIOS revision level
• Fixed-system data, such as peripherals, serial numbers, and asset tags
• Resource data, such as memory size, cache size, and processor speed
• Dynamic data, such as event detection and error logging
Non-Plug and Play operating systems require an additional interface for obtaining the
SMBIOS information. The BIOS supports an SMBIOS table interface for such operating
systems. Using this support, an SMBIOS service-level application running on a
non-Plug and Play operating system can obtain the SMBIOS information. Additional
board information can be found in the BIOS under the Additional Information header
under the Main BIOS page.
3.3 Legacy USB Support

Legacy USB support enables USB devices to be used even when the operating
system’s USB drivers are not yet available. Legacy USB support is used to access the
BIOS Setup program, and to install an operating system that supports USB. By
default, Legacy USB support is set to Enabled.
Legacy USB support operates as follows:
1. When you apply power to the computer, legacy support is disabled.
2. POST begins.
3. Legacy USB support is enabled by the BIOS allowing you to use a USB keyboard to
enter and configure the BIOS Setup program and the maintenance menu.
4. POST completes.
5. The operating system loads. While the operating system is loading, USB
keyboards and mice are recognized and may be used to configure the operating
system. (Keyboards and mice are not recognized during this period if Legacy USB
support was set to Disabled in the BIOS Setup program.)
6. After the operating system loads the USB drivers, all legacy and non-legacy USB
devices are recognized by the operating system, and Legacy USB support from the
BIOS is no longer used.
57
3.4 BIOS Updates

The BIOS can be updated using either of the following utilities, which are available on
the Intel World Wide Web site:
• Intel® Express BIOS Update utility, which enables automated updating while in the
Windows environment. Using this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a
hard disk, a USB drive (a flash drive or a USB drive), or an optical drive.
• Intel® Flash Memory Update Utility, which requires booting from DOS. Using this
utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a hard disk, a USB drive (a flash
drive or a USB drive), or an optical drive.
• Intel® F7 switch allows a user to select where the BIOS .bio file is located and
perform the update from that location/device. Similar to performing a BIOS
Recovery without removing the BIOS configuration jumper.
Both utilities verify that the updated BIOS matches the target system to prevent
accidentally installing an incompatible BIOS.
NOTE
Review the instructions distributed with the upgrade utility before attempting a BIOS
update.

Overview of BIOS Features
3.4.2 Custom Splash Screen

During POST, an Intel® splash screen is displayed by default. This splash screen can
be augmented with a custom splash screen. The Intel Integrator’s Toolkit that is
available from Intel can be used to create a custom splash screen.

3.5 BIOS Recovery

It is unlikely that anything will interrupt a BIOS update; however, if an interruption
occurs, the BIOS could be damaged. Table 28 lists the drives and media types that
can and cannot be used for BIOS recovery. The BIOS recovery media does not need
to be made bootable however, it must contain the motherboard .bio file at the root
level.
Table 28. Acceptable Drives/Media Types for BIOS Recovery

Media Type Can be used for BIOS recovery?
Optical drive connected to the SATA interface Yes
USB removable drive (a USB Flash Drive, for example) Yes
USB diskette drive (with a 1.44 MB diskette) No
USB hard disk drive No
Legacy diskette drive (with a 1.44 MB diskette) connected to the No
legacy diskette drive interface

3.6 Boot Options

In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a hard drive, optical
drive, removable drive, or the network. The default setting is for the optical drive to
be the first boot device, the hard drive second, removable drive third, and the network
fourth.
3.6.1 Optical Drive Boot

Booting from the optical drive is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable
CD-ROM format specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program, the
optical drive is listed as a boot device. Boot devices are defined in priority order.
Accordingly, if there is not a bootable CD in the optical drive, the system will attempt
to boot from the next defined drive.
3.6.2 Network Boot

The network can be selected as a boot device. This selection allows booting from the
onboard LAN or a network add-in card with a remote boot ROM installed.
Pressing the <F12> key during POST automatically forces booting from the LAN. To
use this key during POST, the User Access Level in the BIOS Setup program's Security
menu must be set to Full.
3.6.3 Booting Without Attached Devices

For use in embedded applications, the BIOS has been designed so that after passing
the POST, the operating system loader is invoked even if the following devices are not
present:
• Video adapter
• Keyboard
• Mouse
3.6.4 Changing the Default Boot Device During POST

Pressing the <F10> key during POST causes a boot device menu to be displayed. This
menu displays the list of available boot devices. Table 29 lists the boot device menu
options.
Table 29. Boot Device Menu Options

Boot Device Menu Function Keys Description
<↑> or <↓> Selects a default boot device
<Enter> Exits the menu, and boots from the selected device
<Esc> Exits the menu and boots according to the boot priority
defined through BIOS setup

4.3 BIOS Error Messages

Table 32 lists the error messages and provides a brief description of each.
Table 32. BIOS Error Messages

Error Message Explanation
CMOS Battery Low The battery may be losing power. Replace the battery soon.
CMOS Checksum Bad The CMOS checksum is incorrect. CMOS memory may have been
corrupted. Run Setup to reset values.
Memory Size Decreased Memory size has decreased since the last boot. If no memory
was removed, then memory may be bad.
No Boot Device Available System did not find a device to boot.
4.4 Port 80h POST Codes

During the POST, the BIOS generates diagnostic progress codes (POST codes) to I/O
port 80h. If the POST fails, execution stops and the last POST code generated is left
at port 80h. This code is useful for determining the point where an error occurred.
The following tables provide information about the POST codes generated by the BIOS:
• Table 33 lists the Port 80h POST code ranges
• Table 34 lists the Port 80h POST codes themselves
• Table 35 lists the Port 80h POST sequence
