Chapter 1 Introduction
SAGP-845EV is a PSB form factor board to work with a high performance
processor. It is equipped with advanced multi-mode I/O, and designed for
system manufacturers, integrators, or VARs who want to provide reliable and
quality performance at a reasonable price.
In addition, SAGP-845EV’s onboard Intel 845G MGCH chip features built-in AGP4X
capability which provides 3D graphics of up to 2048x1536x16-bit-color resolution.
The onboard VGA shares 8MB system DDR-SDRAM.
An advanced high performance super AT I/O chip – ITE IT8712 is used in the
SAGP-845EV board. Both on-chip UARTs are compatible with the NS16C550. The
parallel port and IDE interface are compatible with IBM PC/AT architecture.
SAGP-845EV’s built-in ICH4 has 10/100 Fast Ethernet LAN capability. It’s fully
integrated 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX LAN solution with high performance networking
functions and low power features.
SAGP-845EV uses the advanced Intel 845G Chipsets that is a 100% software-
compatible chipset with PCI 2.2 standard.
This PIAGP CPU card must be installed on IEI PCIAGP/PXAGP series backplanes.
If onboard ISA interface is required, please be sure to install PISA-KIT01
daughter board on the specific socket on the backplane before ISA cards are
installed to make sure the system works properly.
