3. CPU External Frequency (BUS) Selection (FS0, FS1, FS2, FS3)
These jumpers tell the clock generator what frequency to send to the CPU. These allow
the selection of the CPU’s external frequency (or BUS Clock). The BUS Clock multi-
plied by the BUS Ratio equals the CPU’s internal frequency (the advertised CPU speed).
When BUS Frequency is set to 75MHz or more, the PCI Frequency Selector
(FS3) must be set to asynchronous PCI mode to maintain PCI signal stability.
4. CPU to BUS Frequency Ratio (BF0, BF1, BF2)
These jumpers set the frequency ratio between the internal frequency of the CPU
and the external frequency (called the BUS Clock) within the CPU. These must be
set together with the jumpers for CPU External (BUS) Frequency Selection.
