Introducing the Mainboard

Thank you for choosing the L7S7A2 mainboard. The L7S7A2 is designed to fit

the advanced AMD processors in the 462-pin package. Based on the ATX

form factor featuring the SiS746 Northbridge and SiS963/963L Southbridge

chipsets. This mainboard provides the standard 133/166MHz front side bus

with for high-end business or personal desktop markets.

The mainboard incorporates the SiS746 Northbridge and SiS963 Southbridge

chipsets. The SiS746 Northbridge features the S2K complaint bus driver

technology to support AMD 133/166 MHz FSB processor. It also supports the

AMD PowerNow!™ dynamic power management technique. The Memory

Controller can support DDR and offer bandwidth up to 2.7GB/s under DDR333

in order to sustain the bandwidth demand from host processor, as well as the

multi I/O masters and AGP masters. While the SiS963/963L Southbridge inte-

grates the Universal Serial Bus 2.0 Host Controllers, 1394a (except for SiS963L)

and Audio Controller with AC 97 interface.

The L7S7A2 is designed to give customers a high quality, multimedia solution

and state-of-the-art technology. It provides advanced full set of I/O ports, such

as dual channel IDE interfaces, a floppy controller, two high-speed serial port

(COM2 optional), an EPP/ECP capable bi-directional parallel port connector,

four USB (Universal Serial Bus) connector, a PS/2 keyboard, mouse and

1394a connectors. One AGP slot, five PCI local bus slots and one communi-

cation and networking riser (CNR) slot (optional) provide expandability for

add-on peripheral cards.

Note: SDRAM provides 800 MBps or 1 GBps data transfer depending on whether

the bus is 100 MHz or 133 MHz. Double Data Rate SDRAM (DDR SDRAM)

doubles the rate to 1.6 GBps or 2.7 GBps by transferring data on both the ris-

ing and falling edges of the clock. DDR SDRAM uses additional power and

ground lines and requires 184-pin DIMM modules rather than the 168-pin

DIMMs used by SDRAM.

Compare the mainboard’s package contents with the following checklist:

Standard Items

• One mainboard

• One diskette drive ribbon cable (optional)

• One IDE drive ribbon cable

• One auto-install software support CD

• One I/O panel

• This user’s manual

Processor The mainboard uses an AMD 462-pin Socket A that supports

133/166 MHz frontside bus (FSB).

Chipset The SiS746 and SiS963/963L chipsets are based on an inno-

vative and scalable architecture with proven reliability and

performance. A few of the chipset’s advanced features are:

• Supports AMD Socket A CPU: 133/166 MHz

• Synchronous/Asynchronous Host-t-DRAM timing:

133/200, 133/266, 133/400, 166/266, 166/333, 166/400

• Supports 200/266/333/400 DDR SDRAM

• Supports up to 2 unbuffered DIMM DDR333 or up to 3

unbuffered double-sided DIMM DDR266/200

• AGP v3.0 Compliant

• Bi-directional 16 bit data bus

• 1 GB/s performance in 133MHz x 4 mode

• PCI 2.2 Specification Compliance

• Integrated Multithreaded I/O Link Mastering with Read

Pipelined Streaming

• Supports Enhanced Software and Automatic schemes to

access PHY registers

• Supports Ultra DMA 33/66/100/133

• USB v2.0 and Enhanced Host Controller Interface (EHCI)

v1.0 compatible

Additional key features include support for six USB ports, Fast

Ethernet MAC controller, AC97 interface, IEEE 1394 host con-

troller (except for SiS963L Southbridge chipset), advanced power

management, integrated DMA controller and keyboard control-

ler.

Memory • Supports DDR up to 200/266/333/400 (enhanced) MHz

SDRAM memory module

• Accommodates three unbuffered 2.5V 184-pin slots

• Each slot supports up to 1 GB with a total maximum

capacity of 3 GB

Graphics The L7S7A2 includes an AGP slot that provides eight times

the bandwidth of the original AGP specification. The AGP 3.0

(8xAGP) offers a significant increase in performance along

with feature enhancements to AGP2.0. This interface repre-

sents the natural evolution from the existing AGP to meet the

ever-increasing demands placed on the graphic interfaces

within the workstation and desktop environments.

Audio The AC’ 97 Audio codec is compliant with the AC 97 2.2 speci-

fication that meets the PC2001 requirements and supports

S/PDIF In/Out. It also has a built-in buffer and internal PLL.

Features include support for analog switch for rear-out (share),

the line-in jack (share), center/bass (share), and MIC jack to

output 6 channels audio.

Note: Optional 4-channel audio controller.

Expansion

Options The mainboard comes with the following expansion options:

• Five 32-bit PCI slots

• One AGP slot (supports 1.5V AGP Interface only)

• A Communications Network Riser

(

CNR

)

slot

(

AC97 inter-

face only; optional )

• Two IDE connectors which support four IDE channels and

a floppy disk drive interface

The L7S7A2 supports Ultra DMA bus mastering with transfer

rates of 33/66/100/133 MB/sec.

Onboard LAN

(optional) RTL8201BL is a Fast Ethernet Phyceiver with an MII (Media

Independent Interface)/SNI (Serial Network Interface). It can

be used as a Network Interface Adapter, MAU, CNR, ACR,

Ethernet Hub, and Ethernet Switch.

tery powered applications

Integrated I/O The mainboard has a full set of I/O ports and connectors:

• Two PS/2 ports for mouse and keyboard

• Two serial port (COM2 port optional)

• One parallel port

• Four USB ports

• One LAN port (optional)

• One 1394a port (optional)

• Audio jacks for microphone, line-in and line-out

BIOS

Firmware This mainboard uses AMI BIOS that enables users to config-

ure many system features including the following:

• Power management

• Wake-up alarms

• CPU parameters

• CPU and memory timing

The firmware can also be used to set parameters for different

processor clock speeds.

Some hardware specifications and software items are subject to change

without prior notice.

There are many types of computer cases on the market. The mainboard com-

plies with the specifications for the ATX system case. Some features on the

mainboard are implemented by cabling connectors on the mainboard to indi-

cators and switches on the system case. Ensure that your case supports all

the features required. The mainboard can support one or two floppy diskette

drives and four enhanced IDE drives. Ensure that your case has sufficient

power and space for all the drives that you intend to install.

Most cases have a choice of I/O templates in the rear panel. Make sure that

the I/O template in the case matches the I/O ports installed on the rear edge

of the mainboard.

This mainboard has an ATX form factor of 305 x 190 mm. Choose a case that

accommodates this form factor.
