For information about Refer to Power supply connectors Section 2.7.2.2, page 50 15 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 1.4 System Memory The board has two DIMM sockets and support the following memory features: • • 1.8 V (only) DDR2 SDRAM DIMMs with gold-plated contacts Unbuffered, single-sided or double-sided DIMMs with the following restriction: Double-sided DIMMS with x16 organization are not supported. • • • • • 4 GB maximum total system memory. Refer to Section 2.1.1 on page 37 for information on the total amount of addressable memory. Minimum total system memory: 512 MB Non-ECC DIMMs Serial Presence Detect DDR2 667 or DDR2 533 MHz SDRAM DIMMs NOTE A minimum of 512 MB of system memory is required to fully enable both the onboard graphics and the manageability engine. 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. Table 3 lists the supported DIMM configurations. Table 3. Supported Memory Configurations 16 Largest usable DIMM (one x8 Double-sided DIMM) Maximum capacity with two identical x8 Double-sided DIMMs DIMM Type DRAM Technology Smallest usable DIMM (one x16 Single-sided DIMM) DDR2 533 256 Mbit 128 MB 512 MB 1 GB DDR2 533 512 Mbit 256 MB 1 GB 2 GB DDR2 533 1 Gbit 512 MB 2 GB 4 GB DDR2 667 256 Mbit 128 MB 512 MB 1 GB DDR2 667 512 Mbit 256 MB 1 GB 2 GB DDR2 667 1 Gbit 512 MB 2 GB 4 GB Product Description NOTE Regardless of the DIMM type used, the memory frequency will either be equal to or less than the processor system bus frequency. For example, if DDR2 667 memory is used with a 533 MHz system bus frequency processor, the memory will operate at 533 MHz. Table 4 lists the resulting operating memory frequencies based on the combination of DIMMs and processors. Table 4.

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. Figure 3 illustrates the memory channel and DIMM configuration. Channel A, DIMM 0 Channel B, DIMM 0 OM18456 Figure 3. Memory Channel and DIMM Configuration 1.4.1.1 Dual Channel (Interleaved) Mode Configuration Figure 4 shows a dual channel configuration using two DIMMs. In this example, the DIMM sockets are populated with identical DIMMs. 1 GB Channel A, DIMM 0 1 GB Channel B, DIMM 0 OM18457 Figure 4. Dual Channel (Interleaved) Mode Configuration with Two DIMMs 18 Product Description 1.4.1.2 Single Channel (Asymmetric) Mode Configurations NOTE Dual channel (Interleaved) mode configurations provide the highest memory throughput. Figure 5 shows a single channel configuration using one DIMM. In this example, only Channel A is populated. Channel B is not populated. 2 GB Channel A, DIMM 0 Channel B, DIMM 0 OM18458 Figure 5. Single Channel (Asymmetric) Mode Configuration with One DIMM Figure 6 shows a single channel configuration using two DIMMs. In this example, the capacity of the DIMM in Channel A does not equal the capacity of the DIMM in Channel B. 2 GB Channel A, DIMM 0 1 GB Channel B, DIMM 0 OM18459 Figure 6. Single Channel (Asymmetric) Mode Configuration with Two DIMMs 19 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 1.5 Intel® 946GZ Express Chipset The Intel 946GZ Express chipset consists of the following devices: • • Intel 82946GZ Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) with Direct Media Interface (DMI) interconnect Intel 82801GB I/O Controller Hub (ICH7) with DMI interconnect The GMCH component provides interfaces to the CPU, memory, PCI Express, and the DMI interconnect. The component also provides integrated graphics capabilities supporting 3D, 2D and display capabilities. The ICH7 is a centralized controller for the board’s I/O paths. For information about Refer to The Intel 946GZ Express chipset http://developer.intel.com/ Resources used by the chipset Chapter 2 1.5.1 Intel 946GZ Graphics Subsystem The Intel 946GZ Express chipset contains two separate, mutually exclusive graphics options. Either the GMA 3000 graphics controller (contained within the 82946GZ GMCH) is used, or a PCI Express x16 add-in card can be used. When a PCI Express x16 add-in card is installed, the GMA 3000 graphics controller is disabled. 1.5.1.1 Intel® GMA 3000 Graphics Controller The Intel GMA 3000 graphics controller features the following: • • • 667 MHz core frequency High performance 3-D setup and render engine High quality texture engine ⎯ DX9*/DX10 Compliant Hardware Shader Model 3.0 ⎯ 32-bit full precision floating point operations ⎯ 128-bit floating point texture formats ⎯ Alpha and luminance maps ⎯ Texture color-keying/chroma-keying ⎯ Cubic environment reflection mapping • ⎯ Enhanced texture blending functions 3D Graphics rendering enhancements ⎯ 1.3 dual texture GigaPixel/sec fill rate ⎯ 16 and 32 bit color ⎯ Maximum 3D supported resolution of 1600 x 1200 x 32 at 60 Hz ⎯ Vertex cache ⎯ Anti-aliased lines ⎯ OpenGL* version 1.5 support with vertex buffer and EXT_Shadow extensions 20 Product Description • 2D Graphics enhancements ⎯ 8, 16, and 32 bit color ⎯ Optimized 256-bit BLT engine ⎯ Color space conversion • ⎯ Anti-aliased lines Video ⎯ Hardware motion compensation and iDCT for MPEG2 • ⎯ Software DVD at 30 fps full screen Display ⎯ Integrated 24-bit 400 MHz RAMDAC ⎯ Up to 2048 x 1536 at 75 Hz refresh (QXGA) ⎯ DDC2B compliant interface with Advanced Digital Display 2 or 2+ card (ADD2/ADD2+), support for TV-out/TV-in and DVI digital display connections ⎯ Supports flat panels up to 2048 x 1536 at 75 Hz (when in dual-channel mode) or digital CRT/HDTV at 1920 x 1080 at 85 Hz (with ADD2/MEC) • • ⎯ Two multiplexed SDVO port interfaces with 270 MHz pixel clocks using an ADD2/MEC card Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) support up to 256 MB Intel® Zoom Utility 1.5.1.2 Dynamic Video Memory Technology (DVMT) DVMT enables enhanced graphics and memory performance through highly efficient memory utilization. DVMT ensures the most efficient use of available system memory for maximum 2-D/3-D graphics performance. Up to 256 MB of system memory can be allocated to DVMT on systems that have 512 MB or more of total system memory installed. DVMT returns system memory back to the operating system when the additional system memory is no longer required by the graphics subsystem. DVMT will always use a minimal fixed portion of system physical memory (as set in the BIOS Setup program) for compatibility with legacy applications. An example of this would be when using VGA graphics under DOS. Once loaded, the operating system and graphics drivers allocate additional system memory to the graphics buffer as needed for performing graphics functions. NOTE The use of DVMT requires operating system driver support. 21 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 1.5.1.3 Configuration Modes A list of supported modes for the Intel GMA 3000 graphics controller is available as a downloadable document. For information about Refer to Supported video modes for the board Section 1.2, page 15 1.5.1.4 Advanced Digital Display (ADD2/ADD2+) Card Support The GMCH routes two multiplexed SDVO ports that are each capable of driving up to a 200 MHz pixel clock to the PCI Express x16 connector. The SDVO ports can be paired for a dual channel configuration to support up to a 400 MHz pixel clock. When an ADD2/ADD2+ card is detected, the Intel GMA 3000 graphics controller is enabled and the PCI Express x16 connector is configured for SDVO mode. SDVO mode enables the SDVO ports to be accessed by the ADD2/ADD2+ card. An ADD2/ADD2+ card can either be configured to support simultaneous display with the primary VGA display or can be configured to support dual independent display as an extended desktop configuration with different color depths and resolutions. ADD2/ADD2+ cards can be designed to support the following configurations: • • • • • • • TV-Out (composite video) Transition Minimized Differential Signaling (TMDS) for DVI 1.0 Low Voltage Differential Signaling (LVDS) Single device operating in dual channel mode VGA output HDTV output HDMI/UDI support (when used with the HD Audio Link) 1.5.2 USB The board supports up to eight USB 2.0 ports, supports UHCI and EHCI, and uses UHCI- and EHCI-compatible drivers. The ICH7 provides the USB controller for all ports. The port arrangement is as follows: • • Four ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors Four ports are routed to two separate front panel USB headers 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 shielded cable that meets the requirements for full-speed devices. 22 For information about Refer to The location of the USB connectors on the back panel Figure 13, page 45 The location of the front panel USB headers Figure 14, page 46 Product Description 1.5.3 Serial ATA Interfaces The board provides four Serial ATA (SATA) connectors, which support one device per connector. 1.5.3.1 Serial ATA Support The ICH7’s Serial ATA controller offers four independent Serial ATA ports with a theoretical maximum transfer rate of 3 Gbits/sec per port. One device can be installed on each port for a maximum of four Serial ATA devices. A point-to-point interface is used for host to device connections, unlike Parallel ATA IDE which supports a master/slave configuration and two devices per channel. For compatibility, the underlying Serial ATA functionality is transparent to the operating system. The Serial ATA controller can operate in both legacy and native modes. In legacy mode, standard IDE I/O and IRQ resources are assigned (IRQ 14 and 15). In Native mode, standard PCI Conventional bus resource steering is used. Native mode is the preferred mode for configurations using the Windows* XP and Windows 2000 operating systems. NOTE Many Serial ATA drives use new low-voltage power connectors and require adaptors or power supplies equipped with low-voltage power connectors. For more information, see: http://www.serialata.org/. For information about Refer to The location of the Serial ATA connectors Figure 14, page 46 23 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 1.5.4 Parallel IDE Interface The Parallel ATA IDE controller has one bus-mastering Parallel ATA IDE interface. The Parallel ATA IDE interface supports the following modes: • • • • • Programmed I/O (PIO): processor controls data transfer. 8237-style DMA: DMA offloads the processor, supporting transfer rates of up to 16 MB/sec. Ultra DMA: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of up to 33 MB/sec. ATA-66: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of up to 66 MB/sec. ATA-66 protocol is similar to Ultra DMA and is device driver compatible. ATA-100: DMA protocol on IDE bus allows host and target throttling. The ATA-100 logic can achieve read transfer rates up to 100 MB/sec and write transfer rates up to 88 MB/sec. NOTE ATA-66 and ATA-100 are faster timings and require a specialized cable to reduce reflections, noise, and inductive coupling. The Parallel ATA IDE interface also supports ATAPI devices (such as CD-ROM drives) and ATA devices. The BIOS supports Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and Extended Cylinder Head Sector (ECHS) translation modes. The drive reports the transfer rate and translation mode to the BIOS. For information about Refer to The location of the Parallel ATA IDE connector Figure 14, page 46 1.5.5 Real-Time Clock, CMOS SRAM, and Battery 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 3.3 VSB applied. NOTE If the battery and AC power fail, custom defaults, if previously saved, will be loaded into CMOS RAM at power-on. 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 12 shows the location of the battery. 24 Product Description 1.6 Legacy I/O Controller The I/O controller provides the following features: • • • • • • • One serial port One parallel port with Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) and Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) support Serial IRQ interface compatible with serialized IRQ support for PCI systems PS/2-style mouse and keyboard interfaces Interface for one 1.44 MB or 2.88 MB diskette drive Intelligent power management, including a programmable wake-up event interface PCI power management support The BIOS Setup program provides configuration options for the I/O controller. 1.6.1 Serial Port The board has one serial port connector located on the back panel.

Thermal Sensors and Fan Headers 1.10 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 ⎯ Resume on Ring ⎯ Wake from USB ⎯ Wake from PS/2 devices ⎯ Power Management Event signal (PME#) wake-up support 1.10.1 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 the board requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. ACPI features include: • • • • • • 30 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 33) Support for a front panel power and sleep mode switch Product Description 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. Table 6. Effects of Pressing the Power Switch If the system is in this state… …and the power switch is pressed for Off (ACPI G2/G5 – Soft off) Less than four seconds Power-on (ACPI G0 – working state) On (ACPI G0 – working state) Less than four seconds Soft-off/Standby (ACPI G1 – sleeping state) On (ACPI G0 – working state) More than four seconds Fail safe power-off (ACPI G2/G5 – Soft off) Sleep (ACPI G1 – sleeping state) Less than four seconds Wake-up (ACPI G0 – working state) Sleep (ACPI G1 – sleeping state) More than four seconds Power-off (ACPI G2/G5 – Soft off) …the system enters this state 31 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 1.10.1.1 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. Table 7. Power States and Targeted System Power Global States Sleeping States Processor States G0 – working state S0 – working C0 – working D0 – working state. Full power > 30 W G1 – sleeping state S1 – Processor stopped C1 – stop grant D1, D2, D3 – device specification specific. 5 W < power < 52.5 W G1 – sleeping state S3 – Suspend to RAM. Context saved to RAM. No power D3 – no power except for wake-up logic. Power < 5 W (Note 2) G1 – sleeping state S4 – Suspend to disk. Context saved to disk. No power D3 – no power except for wake-up logic. Power < 5 W (Note 2) G2/S5 S5 – Soft off. Context not saved. Cold boot is required. No power D3 – no power except for wake-up logic. Power < 5 W (Note 2) G3 – mechanical off. AC power is disconnected from the computer. No power to the system. No power D3 – no power for wake-up logic, except when provided by battery or external source. No power to the system. Service can be performed safely. Device States Targeted System Power (Note 1) Notes: 1. 2. Total system power is dependent on the system configuration, including add-in boards and peripherals powered by the system chassis’ power supply. Dependent on the standby power consumption of wake-up devices used in the system. 1.10.1.2 Two-Watt Standby In 2001, the U.S. government issued an executive order requiring a reduction in power for appliances and personal computers. This board meets that requirement by operating at 1.5 W (or less) in S5 (Standby) mode. Two-Watt operation applies only to the S5 state when the computer is turned off, but still connected to AC power. Two-Watt operation does not apply to the S3 (Suspend to RAM) or S4 (Suspend to disk) states. Newer energy-efficient power supplies using less than 0.5 W (in Standby mode) may also be needed to achieve this goal. 32 Product Description 1.10.1.3 Wake-up Devices and Events Table 8 lists the devices or specific events that can wake the computer from specific states. Table 8. Wake-up Devices and Events These devices/events can wake up the computer… …from this state LAN S1, S3, S4, S5 (Note) PME# signal S1, S3, S4, S5 (Note) Power switch S1, S3, S4, S5 PS/2 devices S1, S3 RTC alarm S1, S3, S4, S5 Serial port S1, S3 USB S1, S3 WAKE# signal S1, S3, S4, S5 Note: For LAN and PME# signal, S5 is disabled by default in the BIOS Setup program. Setting this option to Power On will enable a wake-up event from LAN in the S5 state. NOTE The use of these wake-up events from an ACPI state requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. In addition, software, drivers, and peripherals must fully support ACPI wake events. 1.10.2 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 Resume on Ring Wake from USB Wake from PS/2 keyboard PME# signal wake-up support WAKE# signal wake-up support LAN wake capabilities and Instantly Available PC technology require power from the +5 V standby line. 33 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification Resume on Ring enables telephony devices to access the computer when it is in a power-managed state. The method used depends on the type of telephony device (external or internal). NOTE The use of Resume on Ring and Wake from USB technologies from an ACPI state requires an operating system that provides full ACPI support. 1.10.2.1 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. For information about Refer to The location of the main power connector Figure 14, page 46 The signal names of the main power connector Table 23, page 50 1.10.2.2 Fan Headers The function/operation of the fan headers is as follows: • • • • • 34 The fans are on when the board is in the S0 or S1 state. The fans are off when the board is off or in the S3, S4, or S5 state. Each fan header is wired to a fan tachometer input of the hardware monitoring and fan control device. 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. For information about Refer to The locations of the fan headers and thermal sensors Figure 10, page 30 The signal names of the processor fan header Table 18, page 48 The signal names of the chassis fan headers Table 17, page 48 Product Description 1.10.2.3 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 PCI bus network adapter 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. Depending on the LAN implementation, the board supports LAN wake capabilities with ACPI in the following ways: • • • The PCI Express WAKE# signal The PCI bus PME# signal for PCI 2.3 compliant LAN designs The onboard LAN subsystem 1.10.2.4 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-toRAM) sleep-state. While in the S3 sleep-state, the computer will appear to be off (the power supply is off, and the front panel LED is amber if dual colored, or off if single colored.) When signaled by a wake-up device or event, the system quickly returns to its last known wake state. Table 8 on page 33 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 2.3 compliant add-in cards and drivers. 1.10.2.5 Resume on Ring The operation of Resume on Ring can be summarized as follows: • • • Resumes operation from ACPI S1 or S3 states Detects incoming call similarly for external and internal modems Requires modem interrupt be unmasked for correct operation 35 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 1.10.2.6 Wake from USB USB bus activity wakes the computer from ACPI S1 or S3 states. NOTE Wake from USB requires the use of a USB peripheral that supports Wake from USB. 1.10.2.7 Wake from PS/2 Devices PS/2 device activity wakes the computer from an ACPI S1 or S3 state. 1.10.2.8 PME# Signal Wake-up Support When the PME# signal on the PCI bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 state (with Wake on PME enabled in BIOS). 1.10.2.9 WAKE# Signal Wake-up Support When the WAKE# signal on the PCI Express bus is asserted, the computer wakes from an ACPI S1, S3, S4, or S5 state. 1.10.2.10 +5 V Standby Power Indicator LED The +5 V standby power indicator LED shows that power is still present even when the computer appears to be off. Figure 11 shows the location of the standby power indicator LED. CAUTION If AC power has been switched off and the standby power indicator is still lit, disconnect the power cord before installing or removing any devices connected to the board. Failure to do so could damage the board and any attached devices. OM18460 Figure 11.

The PCI specification specifies how interrupts can be shared between devices attached to the PCI bus. In most cases, the small amount of latency added by interrupt sharing does not affect the operation or throughput of the devices. In some special cases where maximum performance is needed from a device, a PCI device should not share an interrupt with other PCI devices. Use the following information to avoid sharing an interrupt with a PCI add-in card. PCI devices are categorized as follows to specify their interrupt grouping: • • • INTA: By default, all add-in cards that require only one interrupt are in this category. For almost all cards that require more than one interrupt, the first interrupt on the card is also classified as INTA. INTB: Generally, the second interrupt on add-in cards that require two or more interrupts is classified as INTB. (This is not an absolute requirement.) INTC and INTD: Generally, a third interrupt on add-in cards is classified as INTC and a fourth interrupt is classified as INTD. The ICH7 has eight Programmable Interrupt Request (PIRQ) input signals. All PCI interrupt sources either onboard or from a PCI add-in card connect to one of these PIRQ signals. Some PCI interrupt sources are electrically tied together on the board and therefore share the same interrupt. Table 14 shows an example of how the PIRQ signals are routed. Table 14. PCI Interrupt Routing Map ICH7 PIRQ Signal Name PCI Interrupt Source SMBus controller PIRQA PIRQB PIRQC PIRQD PIRQE PIRQF PIRQG PIRQH INTC ICH7 LAN INTA PCI bus connector 1 INTD INTA INTB INTC PCI bus connector 2 INTC INTB INTA INTD NOTE In PIC mode, the ICH7 can connect each PIRQ line internally to one of the IRQ signals (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 14, and 15). Typically, a device that does not share a PIRQ line will have a unique interrupt. However, in certain interrupt-constrained situations, it is possible for two or more of the PIRQ lines to be connected to the same IRQ signal. Refer to Table 13 for the allocation of PIRQ lines to IRQ signals in APIC mode. PCI interrupt assignments to USB ports and Serial ATA ports are dynamic. 43 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 2.7 Connectors and Headers CAUTION Only the following connectors have overcurrent protection: Back panel and front panel USB, PS/2, and VGA. The other internal connectors/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/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. This section describes the board’s connectors and headers. The connectors and headers can be divided into these groups: • • 44 Back panel I/O connectors (see page 45) Component-side connectors and headers (see page 46) Technical Reference 2.7.1 Back Panel Connectors Figure 13 shows the location of the back panel connectors.

The x1 interface supports simultaneous transfer speeds up to 250 Mbytes/sec of peak bandwidth per direction and up to 500 MBytes/sec concurrent bandwidth PCI Conventional (rev 2.3 compliant) bus: two PCI Conventional bus add-in card connectors. The SMBus is routed to PCI Conventional bus connector 2 only. PCI Conventional bus add-in cards with SMBus support can access sensor data and other information residing on the board. Note the following considerations for the PCI Conventional bus connectors: • • All of the PCI Conventional bus connectors are bus master capable. SMBus signals are routed to PCI Conventional bus connector 2. This enables PCI Conventional bus add-in boards with SMBus support to access sensor data on the board. The specific SMBus signals are as follows: ⎯ The SMBus clock line is connected to pin A40. ⎯ The SMBus data line is connected to pin A41. 49 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 2.7.2.2 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, attach that cable on the rightmost pins of the main power connector, leaving pins 11, 12, 23, and 24 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.

Always turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the computer before changing a jumper setting. Otherwise, the board could be damaged. Figure 17 shows the location of the jumper block. The jumper determines the BIOS Setup program’s mode. Table 27 lists the jumper settings for the three modes: normal, configure, and recovery. When the jumper is set to configure mode and the computer is powered-up, the BIOS compares the processor version and the microcode version in the BIOS and reports if the two match. 3 2 1 OM18455 Figure 17.

I/O Shield Dimensions 56 Technical Reference 2.10 Electrical Considerations 2.10.1 DC Loading Table 28 lists the DC loading characteristics of the board. This data is based on a DC analysis of all active components within the board that impact its power delivery subsystems. The analysis does not include PCI add-in cards. Minimum values assume a light load placed on the board that is similar to an environment with no applications running and no USB current draw. Maximum values assume a load placed on the board that is similar to a heavy gaming environment with a 500 mA current draw per USB port. These calculations are not based on specific processor values or memory configurations but are based on the minimum and maximum current draw possible from the board’s power delivery subsystems to the processor, memory, and USB ports. Use the datasheets for add-in cards, such as PCI, to determine the overall system power requirements. The selection of a power supply at the system level is dependent on the system’s usage model and not necessarily tied to a particular processor speed. Table 28.

The total +5 V current draw for add-in boards for a fully loaded board (all three expansion slots and the PCI Express x16 connector filled) must not exceed 8 A. 2.10.4 Power Supply Considerations CAUTION The +5 V standby line for 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. System integrators should refer to the power usage values listed in Table 28 when selecting a power supply for use with the board. 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 58 Technical Reference 2.11 Thermal Considerations CAUTION A chassis with a maximum internal ambient temperature of 38 oC at the processor fan inlet is a requirement. Use a processor heat sink that provides omni-directional airflow to maintain required airflow across the processor voltage regulator area. CAUTION This board requires the use of a BTX Type I or Type II Thermal Module for the processor. Failure to ensure appropriate airflow may result in reduced performance of both the processor and/or voltage regulator or, in some instances, damage to the board. For a list of chassis that have been tested with Intel desktop boards please refer to the following website: http://developer.intel.com/design/motherbd/cooling.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 Ensure that the ambient temperature does 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 2.13. 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. The processor voltage regulator area (shown in Figure 20) can reach a temperature of up to 85 oC in an open chassis. 59 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification Figure 20 shows the locations of the localized high temperature zones.

The SPI Flash contains the BIOS Setup program, POST, the PCI auto-configuration utility, and Plug and Play support. The BIOS displays a message during POST identifying the type of BIOS and a revision code. The initial production BIOSs are identified as TS94610J.86A. When the BIOS Setup configuration jumper is set to configure mode and the computer is powered-up, the BIOS compares the CPU version and the microcode version in the BIOS and reports if the two match. 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 Advanced Security Power Boot Exit NOTE The maintenance menu is displayed only when the board is in configure mode.

PCI devices may be onboard or add-in cards. Autoconfiguration lets a user insert or remove PCI cards without having to configure the system. When a user turns on the system after adding a PCI card, the BIOS automatically configures interrupts, the I/O space, and other system resources. Any interrupts set to Available in Setup are considered to be available for use by the add-in card. 64 Overview of BIOS Features 3.3.2 PCI IDE Support If you select Auto in the BIOS Setup program, the BIOS automatically sets up the PCI IDE connector with independent I/O channel support. The IDE interface supports hard drives up to ATA-66/100 and recognizes any ATAPI compliant devices, including CD-ROM drives, tape drives, and Ultra DMA drives. The BIOS determines the capabilities of each drive and configures them to optimize capacity and performance. To take advantage of the high capacities typically available today, hard drives are automatically configured for Logical Block Addressing (LBA) and to PIO Mode 3 or 4, depending on the capability of the drive. You can override the auto-configuration options by specifying manual configuration in the BIOS Setup program. To use ATA-66/100 features the following items are required: • • • An ATA-66/100 peripheral device An ATA-66/100 compatible cable ATA-66/100 operating system device drivers NOTE Do not connect an ATA device as a slave on the same IDE cable as an ATAPI master device. For example, do not connect an ATA hard drive as a slave to an ATAPI CD-ROM drive. 3.4 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, such as Windows NT*, 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. 65 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 3.5 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. To install an operating system that supports USB, verify that Legacy USB support in the BIOS Setup program is set to Enabled and follow the operating system’s installation instructions. 3.6 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 1.44 MB diskette, or a CD-ROM, or from the file location on the Web. Intel® Flash Memory Update Utility, which requires creation of a boot diskette and manual rebooting of the system. Using this utility, the BIOS can be updated from a file on a 1.44 MB diskette (from a legacy diskette drive or an LS-120 diskette drive) or a CD-ROM. 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. 66 For information about Refer to The Intel World Wide Web site Section 1.2, page 15 Overview of BIOS Features 3.6.1 Language Support The BIOS Setup program and help messages are supported in US English. Additional languages are available in the Integrator’s Toolkit utility. Check the Intel website for details. 3.6.2 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 Integrator’s Toolkit that is available from Intel can be used to create a custom splash screen. NOTE If you add a custom splash screen, it will share space with the Intel branded logo. For information about Refer to The Intel World Wide Web site Section 1.2, page 15 3.7 Boot Options In the BIOS Setup program, the user can choose to boot from a diskette drive, hard drives, CD-ROM, or the network. The default setting is for the diskette drive to be the first boot device, the hard drive second, and the ATAPI CD-ROM third. The fourth device is disabled. 3.7.1 CD-ROM Boot Booting from CD-ROM is supported in compliance to the El Torito bootable CD-ROM format specification. Under the Boot menu in the BIOS Setup program, ATAPI CDROM is listed as a boot device. Boot devices are defined in priority order. Accordingly, if there is not a bootable CD in the CD-ROM drive, the system will attempt to boot from the next defined drive. 3.7.2 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. 67 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 3.7.3 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 3.7.4 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 (as set in the BIOS setup program’s Boot Device Priority Submenu). Table 34 lists the boot device menu options. Table 34. Boot Device Menu Options Boot Device Menu Function Keys Description <↑> or <↓> Selects a default boot device <Enter> Exits the menu, saves changes, and boots from the selected device <Esc> Exits the menu without saving changes 3.8 Adjusting Boot Speed These factors affect system boot speed: • • 3.8.1 Selecting and configuring peripherals properly Optimized BIOS boot parameters Peripheral Selection and Configuration The following techniques help improve system boot speed: • • • • 68 Choose a hard drive with parameters such as “power-up to data ready” less than eight seconds, that minimize hard drive startup delays. Select a CD-ROM drive with a fast initialization rate. This rate can influence POST execution time. Eliminate unnecessary add-in adapter features, such as logo displays, screen repaints, or mode changes in POST. These features may add time to the boot process. Try different monitors. Some monitors initialize and communicate with the BIOS more quickly, which enables the system to boot more quickly. Overview of BIOS Features 3.8.2 BIOS Boot Optimizations Use of the following BIOS Setup program settings reduces the POST execution time. • • In the Boot Menu, set the hard disk drive as the first boot device. As a result, the POST does not first seek a diskette drive, which saves about one second from the POST execution time. In the Peripheral Configuration submenu, disable the LAN device if it will not be used. This can reduce up to four seconds of option ROM boot time. NOTE It is possible to optimize the boot process to the point where the system boots so quickly that the Intel logo screen (or a custom logo splash screen) will not be seen. Monitors and hard disk drives with minimum initialization times can also contribute to a boot time that might be so fast that necessary logo screens and POST messages cannot be seen. This boot time may be so fast that some drives might be not be initialized at all. If this condition should occur, it is possible to introduce a programmable delay ranging from three to 30 seconds (using the Hard Disk Pre-Delay feature of the Advanced Menu in the Drive Configuration Submenu of the BIOS Setup program). 69 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 3.9 BIOS Security Features The BIOS includes security features that restrict access to the BIOS Setup program and who can boot the computer. A supervisor password and a user password can be set for the BIOS Setup program and for booting the computer, with the following restrictions: • • • • • • • The supervisor password gives unrestricted access to view and change all the Setup options in the BIOS Setup program. This is the supervisor mode. The user password gives restricted access to view and change Setup options in the BIOS Setup program. This is the user mode. If only the supervisor password is set, pressing the <Enter> key at the password prompt of the BIOS Setup program allows the user restricted access to Setup. If both the supervisor and user passwords are set, users can enter either the supervisor password or the user password to access Setup. Users have access to Setup respective to which password is entered. Setting the user password restricts who can boot the computer. The password prompt will be displayed before the computer is booted. If only the supervisor password is set, the computer boots without asking for a password. If both passwords are set, the user can enter either password to boot the computer. For enhanced security, use different passwords for the supervisor and user passwords. Valid password characters are A-Z, a-z, and 0-9. Passwords may be up to 16 characters in length. Table 35 shows the effects of setting the supervisor password and user password. This table is for reference only and is not displayed on the screen. Table 35.

No Boot Device Available System did not find a device to boot. 71 Intel Desktop Board D946GZTS Technical Product Specification 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. Displaying the POST-codes requires a PCI bus add-in card, often called a POST card. The POST card can decode the port and display the contents on a medium such as a seven-segment display. NOTE The POST card must be installed in PCI bus connector 1. The following tables provide information about the POST codes generated by the BIOS: • • • Table 38 lists the Port 80h POST code ranges Table 39 lists the Port 80h POST codes themselves Table 40 lists the Port 80h POST sequence NOTE In the tables listed above, all POST codes and range values are listed in hexadecimal.
