ESD Precautions
Integrated circuits on computer boards are sensitive to static
electricity. To avoid damaging chips from electrostatic discharge,
observe the following precautions:
Do not remove boards or integrated circuits from their anti-static
packaging until you are ready to install them.
Before handling a board or integrated circuit, touch an unpainted
portion of the system unit chassis for a few seconds. This helps to
discharge any static electricity on your body.
Wear a wrist-grounding strap, available from most electronic
component stores, when handling boards and components.

Award BIOS Utility
Chapter 7 describes the different settings available in the Award BIOS
that comes with the SBC82611VE CPU card. Also contained here are
instructions on how to set up the BIOS configuration.

6.1 BIOS Introduction


The Award BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your
computer system’s ROM supports Intel Celeron processors in a
standard IBM-AT compatible I/O system. The BIOS provides critical
low-level support for standard devices such as disk drives, serial and
parallel ports. It also adds virus and password protection as well as
special support for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the
entire system.

6.2 BIOS Setup


The Award BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the
system configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system
stores the Setup utility. When you turn ON the computer, the Award
BIOS is immediately activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately
allows you to enter the Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing
the <Del> key, POST (Power On Self Test) will continue with its test
routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup. If you still wish
to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing the ”Reset” button or
simultaneously pressing the <Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. You
can also restart by turning the system OFF and back ON again. The
following message will appear on the screen:
Press <DEL> to Enter Setup
In general, you press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to
select, the <PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for
help and <Esc> to quit.
When you enter the Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear
on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup

The section below the setup items of the Main Menu displays the
control keys for this menu. Another section located at the bottom of
the Main Menu, just below the control keys section, displays
information on the currently highlighted item in the list.
NOTE: If you find that your computer cannot boot after making and
saving system changes with Setup, the Award BIOS, via its
built-in override feature, resets your system to the CMOS default
settings.
We strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the
chipset defaults. These defaults have been carefully chosen by both
Award and your system manufacturer to provide the absolute
maximum performance and reliability.

6.3 Standard CMOS Setup


“Standard CMOS Setup” allows you to record some basic hardware
configurations in your computer system and set the system clock and
error handling. If the motherboard is already installed in a working
system, you will not need to select this option. You will need to run the
Standard CMOS option, however, if you change your system
hardware configurations, the onboard battery fails, or the
configuration stored in the CMOS memory was lost or damaged.

CPU Internal Cache / External Cache


Cache memory is additional memory that is much faster than
conventional DRAM (system memory). CPUs from 486-type on up
contain internal cache memory, and most, but not all, modern PCs have
additional (external) cache memory. When the CPU requests data, the
system transfers the requested data from the main DRAM into cache
memory, for even faster access by the CPU. These items allow you to
enable (speed up memory access) or disable the cache function. By
default, these are Enabled.
CPU L2 Cache ECC Checking
When enabled, this allows ECC checking of the CPU’s L2 cache. By
default, this field is Enabled.
Processor Number Feature
When a Pentium III CPU is installed, the system automatically detects it
and displays this item.
Quick Power On Self Test
This option speeds up Power On Self Test (POST) after you turn on the
system power. If set as Enabled, BIOS will shorten or skip some check
items during POST. The default setting is “Enabled”.

Appendix A
Ultra DMA/66 Reference
Overview
Ultra ATA/66 is a low cost extension of the Ultra ATA/33 hard drive
interface that doubles its burst data rate. Also known as Ultra DMA/66
and Fast ATA-2, Ultra ATA/66 allows host computers to send and
receive data at 66.6 MB/s, which is twice the data transfer speeds of
33.3 MB/s of Ultra DMA/33. The result is maximum disk performance
under PCI local bus environments.
At its fast burst data rates, Ultra ATA/66 will go farther than Ultra
ATA/33 in removing bottlenecks associated with data transfers,
especially during sequential operations. Ultra ATA/66 also delivers
heightened data integrity to the EIDE interface through use of a 40-pin
80-conductor cable, and CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) error
detection code. The 80-conductor cable reduces crosstalk and
improves signal integrity by providing 40 additional ground lines
between the 40-pin IDE signal and ground lines. The connector is plug-
compatible with existing 40-pin headers, and the incremental cost for
the cable should be minimal. As with Ultra ATA/33, CRC ensures the
integrity of transferred data.

Ultra DMA/66 Reference 65


SBC82611 Half-size All-in-One ISA CPU Card Series User’s Manual

Background
Ultra ATA/66 is the latest ATA/IDE hard drive data transfer protocol for
moving data between the hard drive buffer and the system memory.
The previous interface was Ultra ATA/33, with a maximum burst
transfer rate of 33.3 MB/s. Prior to Ultra ATA/33 was multi-word DMA
Mode 2 with a maximum burst transfer rate of 16.6 MB/s. Ultra ATA/66
doubles Ultra ATA/33’s maximum burst rate and quadruples multi-word
DMA’s maximum burst rate to 66.6 MB/s.
By increasing the burst transfer rates of IDE drives, Ultra ATA/66 brings
the effective transfer rate of the system’s bus and a drive’s internal data
rate that much closer into balance. Ultra ATA/66 allows system
designers to provide greater system throughput, particularly for long
sequential transfers required by audio/visual applications.
Host data transfer rates must exceed media data transfer rates or else
performance is reduced because of additional revolutions due to buffer
full/empty conditions on reads/writes.

Host Data Rate Requirements


As you can see by the chart, the host data transfer rate doubles about
every three years. The chart indicates that Ultra ATA/66 will reach its
limits by 2002. The industry has supported host transfer data rates
doubling previously with:
DMA Mode 2 at 16.6 MB/s in 1994
Ultra ATA/33 at 33.3 MB/s in 1997
Ultra ATA/66 at 66.6 MB/s in 1999
With continued expansions in disk capacity and higher rotational
speeds, the hard drive’s internal disk rates also continue to increase.
The transfer of large files, often written sequentially on the hard drive,
is particularly affected by the transfer rate. During sequential reads, the
hard drive, because of its fast internal data rate, may fill its buffer faster
than the host can empty it when using the Ultra ATA/33 or the older
multi-word DMA interfaces. Performance bottlenecks usually result in
this connection between the host and the hard drive. Improving the
interface to keep up with internal data rate improvements is exactly
what Ultra ATA/66 can achieve.

66 Ultra DMA/66 Reference


SBC82611 Half-size All-in-One ISA CPU Card Series User’s Manual

As previously mentioned, fast host data transfer rates help maintain


sequential media transfers, but they also accelerate cache hits. The
following table is based on all commands are either a cache hit (data
comes from the buffer and has <1 ms latency), or a cache miss (data
comes from the media and has >10 ms latency.)

Ultra ATA/66 Performance Benefit


Cache Miss Cache Hit
Sequential Yes Yes
Random No Yes

Backward Compatibility
The Ultra ATA/66 protocol and commands are designed to be
compatible with existing ATA devices and systems. Drives
implementing Ultra ATA/66 are fully backward compatible with older
ATA modes, including Ultra ATA/33. It will handle all the data transfer
modes. The slower modes will be supported with a different clock
signal and clock divider. The slower modes previously worked with a
standard 40-pin interface cable, but Ultra ATA/66 requires a 40-pin 80-
conductor cable for modes 3 and 4.

Data Transfer
Rate (max.) Cable Conducto CRC
rs
DMA Mode1 11.1 MB/s 40-pin IDE 40-pin No
Multi-word DMA Mode 1 13.3 MB/s 40-pin IDE 40-pin No
Multi-word DMA Mode 2 16.6 MB/s 40-pin IDE 40-pin No
Ultra ATA Mode 2 33.3 MB/s 40-pin IDE 40-pin Yes
Ultra ATA Mode 4 66.6 MB/s 40-pin IDE 80-pin Yes

Hard drives that support Ultra ATA/66 also support Ultra ATA/33 and
multi-word DMA, and can be used with existing multi-word DMA host
chipsets. Installed PCs without Ultra ATA/66 capability can use new
hard drives in legacy ATA modes at transfer rates up to 33.3 MB/s.
However, by upgrading with an Ultra ATA/66 PCI adapter card and 80-
conductor cable, they can also take advantage of the interface’s newer
speed and data integrity features. Bus timings must be scaled to
transfer up to twice as fast.

Ultra DMA/66 Reference 67


SBC82611 Half-size All-in-One ISA CPU Card Series User’s Manual

PC vendors who would like to incorporate the advantages of Ultra


ATA/66 in new systems can do so by using new chipsets and
motherboards from Intel and other leading vendors that license the
technology. Although a new cable is required for Ultra ATA/66, the
chipset pin count remains the same at 40.

System Requirements for Ultra ATA/66


To use the Ultra ATA/66 technology, a system must have:
Ultra ATA/66 compatible logic either on the system motherboard,
or on an Ultra DMA PCI adapter card
Ultra DMA compatible BIOS
DMA-aware device driver for the operating system
Ultra ATA/66-compatible IDE device such as a hard drive or CD-
ROM drive
40-pin 80-conductor cable

Frequently Asked Questions


1. Can I run UDMA/66 on a 40 pin 40 conductor cable?
No, the UDMA/66 technology is defined such that the PC and the
HDD can both detect the presence of the 80-conductor cable.
UDMA/66 will not be enabled unless the 80-conductor cable is
present.
2. I have an UDMA/33 system today. How can I support UDMA/66?
An existing system can be upgraded by purchasing a PCI-EIDE
controller that supports UDMA/66.
3. Do Microsoft Operating Systems support UDMA?
Windows releases indicate that they all support DMA transfers.
Windows does not know the difference between Ultra ATA/33 or
Ultra ATA/66. UDMA data transfer rate is determined by your
HDD, your controller and the BIOS. This applies for all the
following Windows operating systems:
- Windows 2000
- Windows 98
- Windows NT Service Pack 3
- Windows 95 OEM Service Release 2

68 Ultra DMA/66 Reference


SBC82611 Half-size All-in-One ISA CPU Card Series User’s Manual

4. I don't have a system that supports Ultra ATA/66, can I run the Ultra
ATA/66 HDD in it?
Yes, the HDD will not run in UDMA/66 mode but instead is a
slower compatible mode such as Ultra ATA/33, DMA Mode 2
(16.6 MB/s) or PIO Mode 4 (16.6MB/s)
5. Can I mix Ultra ATA/33 and Ultra ATA/66 drives on the same cable?
Yes, a legacy ATA (IDE) specification drive can coexist with an
Ultra ATA/66 drive. However, for the Ultra ATA/66 device to attain
Ultra DMA 4 mode, an Ultra ATA/66 capable cable is required.
6. What are some common troubleshooting steps?
- Make sure the cable is Ultra ATA/66 capable. An Ultra ATA/66-
capable cable is a 40-pin, 80-conductor cable with a black
connector on one end, a blue connector on the other end and a
gray connector in the middle. In addition, line 34 on the cable
should be notched or cut (this may be difficult to see with the
human eye).
- Make sure the system board is capable of Ultra ATA/66. An Ultra
ATA/66 capable system board has a detect circuit with a
capacitor for detecting line 34 missing on the cable. If there is no
capacitor, the system can wrongly detect the presence of an
Ultra ATA/66 cable and therefore try to configure the device for
a higher transfer rate.
- Some system boards may not successfully handle Ultra ATA/66 on
both ATA (IDE) channels. If you have difficulty, consider
troubleshooting with the device in the Primary Master position.
- Contact the system board manufacturer for the latest BIOS
upgrade and any Ultra ATA/66 special device drivers or patches.
- Make sure the operating system is DMA capable and that the DMA
mode is activated. (For Windows 95/98, check Device Manager |
Drive Settings tab for a check box.)
- Make sure the drive is Ultra ATA/66 capable and has been
configured to run at Ultra ATA/66 transfer rates. (Seagate drives
require an Ultra ATA/66 activation utility.)

Watchdog Timer
Using the Watchdog Function
The SBC82611VE CPU card uses version 2.0 of the watchdog timer.
This onboard WDT generates either a system reset or non-maskable
interrupt (NMI), depending on the settings made on jumper JP8 of
SBC82611VE. Follow the steps below to enable and program the
watchdog function of SBC82611VE.
Start

Un-Lock WDT : OUT 120H 0AH ; enter WDT function
OUT 120H 0BH ; enable WDT function

Set multiple (1~4) : OUT 120 0NH ; N=1,2,3 or 4

Set base timer (0~F) : OUT 121 0MH ; M=0,1,2,…F

WDT counting

re-set timer : OUT 121 0MH ; M=0,1,2,…F

IF No re-set timer : WDT time-out, generate RESET or NMI

IF to disable WDT : OUT 120 00H ; Can be disable at any time
