Intel® Server Board SE7525GP2 Tech Tips

Revision 1.5

Version A (Green PCB) – both signals are floating

Version B (Red PCB) – both signals are connected directly to 5V

Version C (Blue PCB) – both signals are floating

These two signals are connected to the 6300ESB I/O Bridge and are only 3.3V tolerant.

Version B of this adapter attempts to drive 5V on those two signals and could lead to damage to

the baseboard. The other two versions of this adapter leave those signals floating so they can

be either 3.3V or 5V depending on the system. Because of this, only version A and version C of

the Adaptec Fireconnect 4300 FireWire card are recommended for use with the SE7525GP2

server board.
