2.3 CPU Installation
The cPCI-3700A CPU module supports Intel Socket 370 FC-PGA
Pentium-III processors of 100 MHz front side bus (FSB) or FC-PGA Celeron
processors of 66 MHz FSB. Users need to install high efficient CPU cooler
to guarantee the system stability. The modules with standard configurations
are equipped with CPU and cooler, and the type or speed is upon request.
For OEM customers, please follow up the following note to install the CPU.
The Socket 370 connector uses a standard FC-PGA socket connector. To
install the CPU, insert it to the socket by aligning the notch of the Socket 370
CPU with the one of the FC-PGA socket.
Note: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in
tightly contact to avoid CPU overheating problem that would cause
your system to hang or be unstable. The CPU heat sink and fan
should be installed tightly too. The FAN with speed sensor is
recommend.
2.4 Memory Installation
The cPCI-3700A CPU module supports one SO-DIMM socket for a
maximum total memory of 256MB with optional ECC support. The memory
type must be SDRAM. The modules with standard configurations are
equipped with memory, and the size is upon request. The memory module
can come with size of 32MB, 64MB, 128MB or 256 MB (chip size should be
16Mx8) SDRAM.
