CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION
1-1
The MS-6112 is a high-performance personal computer mainboard based on
the Pentium
®
II processor.
The mainboard uses the highly integrated Intel
®
82440LX AGPset which
optimize the system bandwidth and concurrency with the implementation of
Quad Port Acceleration (QPA). QPA provides 4-port concurrent arbitration
of the processor bus, graphics, PCI bus and SDRAM.
The Intel
®
82371AB chipset integrates all system control functions such as
ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface). The ACPI provides
more Energy Saving Features for the OSPM(OS Direct Power Management)
function. The Intel
®
82371AB chipset also improves the IDE transfer rate by
supporting Ultra DMA/33 IDE that transfers data at the rate of 33MB/s.
The mainboard also supports the LM78 System Hardware Monitor
Controller as optional function. The LM78 function includes: CPU /power
supply/chassis fan revolution detect, CPU/system voltage monitor, system
temperature monitor, and chassis intrusion detect(optional).
