Introduction EP-MVP4M

EP-MVP4M Form Factor

The EP-MVP4M is designed with MicroATX form factor - the new industry

standard of chassis. The MicroATX form factor is essentially a Baby-AT base-

board rotated 90 degrees within the chassis enclosure and a new mounting

configuration for the power supply. With these changes the processor is relocated

away from the expansion slots, allowing them all to hold full length add-in cards.

MicroATX defines a double height aperture to the rear of the chassis which can be

used to host a wide range of onboard I/O. Only the size and position of this

aperture is defined, allowing PC manufacturers to add new I/O features (e.g.; TV

input, TV output, joystick, modem, LAN, etc.) to systems. This will help systems

integrators differentiate their products in the marketplace, and better meet your

needs.

• Smaller size promotes a smaller system size.

• I/O shield does not need to be retooled in an ATX 2.01 or later. Mainboard

could be used in an ATX 2.01-compliant.

• A smaller power supply cam be used. High integration on mainboard reduces

the system costs.

Figure 4: Simple ATX Power

ON/OFF Controller

Power-On/Off (Remote)

The EP-MVP4M has a single 20-pin connector for ATX power supplies. For ATX

power supplies that support the Remote On/Off feature, this should be connected

to the systems front panel for system Power On/Off button. The systems power

On/Off button should be a momentary button that is normally open.

The EP-MVP4M has been designed with “Soft Off" functions. You can turn Off

the system from one of two sources: The first is the front panel Power On/Off

button, and the other is the "Soft Off" function (coming from the EP-MVP4M’s

onboard circuit controller) that can be controlled by the operating system.

Windows 95 will control this when the user clicks that they are ready to Shutdown

the system.

I/O Shield Connector

The EP-MVP4M is equipped with an I/O back panel.Please use the appropriate I/O

shield (figure 3).

System Memory Configuration

Memory Layout

The EP-MVP4M supports (2) 168-pin DIMMs (Dual In-line Memory Module).

The DIMMs can be either EDO (Extended Data Out) or SDRAM (Synchronized

DRAM). The DIMMs may be installed using just one chip.

• We recommend using SDRAM DIMM can not mixing

with EDO DIMM modules.

• DIMM SDRAM may be 83MHz (-12ns), 100MHz (-10ns) or

125MHz (-8ns) bus speed.

• No Registered DIMM support.

Figure 2 and Table 1 show several possible memory configurations using

* SDRAM only supports 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256MB DIMM modules.

DIMM Module Installation

Figure 3 displays the notch marks and what they should look like on your

DIMM memory module.

DIMMs have 168-pins and two notches that will match with the onboard

DIMM socket. DIMM modules are installed by placing the chip firmly into

the socket at a 90 degree angle and pressing straight down (figure 4) until it

fits tightly into the DIMM socket (figure 5).
