Avalue warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be free from
defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of purchase.
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by
persons other than repair personnel authorized by Avalue, or which have been subject to
misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Avalue assumes no liability under the
terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events. Because of Avalue’s high
quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of our customers never need to use our
repair service. If any of Avalue’s products is defective, it will be repaired or replaced at no
charge during the warranty period. For out-of-warranty repairs, you will be billed according
to the cost of replacement materials, service time, and freight. Please consult your dealer

1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU type and
speed, Avalue’s products model name, hardware & BIOS revision number, other
hardware and software used, etc.) Note anything abnormal and list any on-screen
messages you get when the problem occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product, and any
helpful information available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return material authorization)
number from your dealer. This allows us to process your good return more quickly.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a complete Repair and Replacement Order Card
and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt) in a shippable

1. Getting Started
1.1 Safety Precautions
Warning!
Always completely disconnect the power cord from your
chassis whenever you work with the hardware. Do not
make connections while the power is on. Sensitive
electronic components can be damaged by sudden power
surges. Only experienced electronics personnel should
open the PC chassis.
Caution!
Always ground yourself to remove any static charge before
touching the CPU card. Modern electronic devices are very
sensitive to static electric charges. As a safety precaution,
use a grounding wrist strap at all times. Place all electronic
components in a static-dissipative surface or static-shielded
bag when they are not in the chassis.

VIA VT1612A Audio Codec
VIA Technologies’ VT1612ATM 18-bit audio codec conforms to the AC’97 2.2. The
VT1612A integrates Sample Rate Converters and can be adjusted in 1Hz increments. The
analog mixer circuitry integrates a stereo enhancement to provide a pleasing 3D surround
sound effect for stereo media.
Furthermore, an integrated headphone amplifier with thermal shutdown adds signal value
by reducing the BOM. This codec is designed with aggressive power management to
achieve low power consumption. When used with 3.3V analog supply, power consumption
is further reduced. The primary applications for this part are desktop and portable personal
computers multimedia subsystems.

NS DS90C385 LVDS Transmitter
The DS90C385 transmitter converts 28 bits of LVCMOS/LVTTL data into four LVDS (Low
Voltage Differential Signaling) data streams. A phase-locked transmit clock is transmitted in
parallel with the data streams over a fifth LVDS link. Every cycle of the transmit clock 28
bits of input data are sampled and transmitted. At a transmit clock frequency of 85 MHz, 24
bits of RGB data and 3 bits of LCD timing and control data (FPLINE, FPFRAME, DRDY)
are transmitted at a rate of 595 Mbps per LVDS data channel. Using a 85 MHz clock, the
data throughput is 297.5 Mbytes/sec. Also available is the DS90C365 that converts 21 bits
of LVCMOS/LVTTL data into three LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) data streams.
Both transmitters can be programmed for Rising edge strobe or Falling edge strobe through
a dedicated pin. A Rising edge or Falling edge strobe transmitter will interoperate with a
Falling edge strobe Receiver (DS90CF386/DS90CF366) without any translation logic.

2.2 Installation Procedure
This chapter explains you the instructions of how to setup your system.
1. Turn off the power supply.
2. Insert the DIMM module (be careful with the orientation).
3. Insert all external cables for hard disk, floppy, keyboard, mouse, USB etc. except for flat
panel. A CRT monitor must be connected in order to change CMOS settings to support
flat panel.
4. Connect power supply to the board via the ATXPWR.
5. Turn on the power.
6. Enter the BIOS setup by pressing the delete key during boot up. Use the “LOAD BIOS
DEFAULTS” feature. The Integrated Peripheral Setup and the Standard CMOS Setup
Window must be entered and configured correctly to match the particular system
configuration.
7. If TFT panel display is to be utilized, make sure the panel voltage is correctly set before
connecting the display cable and turning on the power.

Main Memory
ECM-5510 provides one 184-pin SODIMM sockets to support DDR SDRAM. The total
maximum memory size is 512 MB.
Make sure to unplug the power supply before adding or removing DIMMs or
other system components. Failure to do so may cause severe damage to
both the board and the components.

• Locate the DIMM slot on the board.
• Hold two edges of the DIMM module carefully. Keep away of touching its connectors.
• Align the notch key on the module with the rib on the slot.
• Firmly press the modules into the slot automatically snaps into the mounting notch. Do
not force the DIMM module in with extra force as the DIMM module only fit in one
direction.
• To remove the DIMM modules, push the two ejector tabs on the slot outward
simultaneously, and then pull out the DIMM module.
Note: (1) Please do not change any DDR SDRAM parameter in BIOS setup to
increase your system’s performance without acquiring technical
information in advance.
(2) Static electricity can damage the electronic components of the computer
or optional boards. Before starting these procedures, ensure that you
are discharged of static electricity by touching a grounded metal object
briefly.

2.3 Jumper and Connector List
You can configure your board to match the needs of your application by setting jumpers. A
jumper is the simplest kind of electric switch.
It consists of two metal pins and a small metal clip (often protected by a plastic cover) that
slides over the pins to connect them. To “close” a jumper you connect the pins with the clip.
To “open” a jumper you remove the clip. Sometimes a jumper will have three pins, labeled 1,
2, and 3. In this case, you would connect either two pins.
The jumper settings are schematically depicted in this manual as follows:
A pair of needle-nose pliers may be helpful when working with jumpers.
Connectors on the board are linked to external devices such as hard disk drives, a
keyboard, or floppy drives. In addition, the board has a number of jumpers that allow you to
configure your system to suit your application.
If you have any doubts about the best hardware configuration for your application, contact
your local distributor or sales representative before you make any changes.
The following tables list the function of each of the board's jumpers and connectors.

Signal
Signal Description
This differential signal pair sends and receives serial data to the communication
link. The mode of this differential signal pair is controlled through the RTS
register of Serial Port 2. Set the RTS register of the Serial Port 2 to LOW for
transmitting, HIGH for receiving.
DATA+/-
Do not select a mode different from the one used by the connected peripheral,
as this may damage CPU board and/or peripheral.
The transmitter drivers in the port are short circuit protected by a thermal
protection circuit. The circuit disables the drivers when the die temperature
reaches 150 °C.
RS-422 mode is typically used in point to point communication. Data and
control signal pairs should be terminated in the receiver end with a resistor
matching the cable impedance (typical 100-120 Ω). The resistors could be
placed in the connector housing.
RS-485 mode is typically used in multi drop applications, where more than 2
units are communicating. The data and control signal pairs should be
terminated in each end of the communication line with a resistor matching the
cable impedance (typical 100-120 Ω). Stubs to substations should be
avoided.

2.4.19.1 Signal Description – PC/104 Connector (CN7 + CN8)
2.4.19.1.1Address
Signal
Signal Description
The address signals LA [23:17] define the selection of a 128KB section of memory
space within the 16MB address range of the 16-bit data bus. These signals are
active high. The validity of the MEMCS16# depends on these signals only. These
address lines are presented to the system with tri-state drivers. The permanent
master drives these lines except when an alternate master cycle occurs; in this
case, the temporary master drives these lines. The LA signals are not defined for
I/O accesses.
LA [17:23]
System address. Address lines for the first one Megabyte of memory. SA [9:0]
used for I/O addresses. SA0 is the least significant bit
SA [0:19]
SBHE#
This signal is an active low signal, that indicates that a byte is being transferred on
the upper byte (SD [15:8]) of the 16 bit bus. All bus masters will drive this line with
a tri-state driver.
2.4.19.1.2Data
Signal
Signal Description
These signals are defined for the low order byte of the 16-bit data bus being the
only bus for 8 bit PC-AT/PC104 adapter boards. Memory or I/O transfers on this
part of the data bus are defined for 8-bit operations with even or odd addresses
and for 16-bit operations for odd addresses only. The signals SA0 and SBHE# are
used to define the data present on this bus:

2.4.19.1.3Commands
Signal
Signal Description
This is an active high signal used to latch valid addresses from the current bus
master on the falling edge of BALE. During DMA, refresh and alternate master
cycles, BALE is forced high for the duration of the transfer. BALE is driven by the
permanent master with a totem-pole driver.
BALE
IOR#
This is an active low signal driven by the current master to indicate an I/O read
operation. I/O mapped devices using this strobe for selection should decode
addresses SA [15:0] and AEN. Additionally, DMA devices will use IOR# in
conjunction with DACKn# to decode a DMA transfer from the I/O device. The
current bus master will drive this line with a tri-state driver.
This is an active low signal driven by the current master to indicate an I/O write
operation. I/O mapped devices using this strobe for selection should decode
addresses SA [15:0] and AEN. Additionally, DMA devices will use IOR# in
conjunction with DACKn# to decode a DMA transfer from the I/O device. The
current bus master will drive this line with a tri-state driver.
IOW#
This is an active low signal driven by the permanent master to indicate a memory
read operation in the first 1MB of system memory. Memory mapped devices using
this strobe should decode addresses SA [19:0] only. If an alternate master drives
MEMR#, the permanent master will drive SMEMR# delayed by internal logic. The
permanent master ties this line to VCC through a pull-up resistor to ensure that it is
inactive during the exchange of bus masters.
SMEMR#
This is an active low signal driven by the permanent master to indicate a memory
write operation in the first 1MB of system memory. Memory mapped devices using
this strobe should decode addresses SA [19:0] only. If an alternate master drives
MEMR#, the permanent master will drive SMEMR# delayed by internal logic. The
permanent master ties this line to VCC through a pull-up resistor to ensure that it is
inactive during the exchange of bus masters.
SMEMW#
This is an active low signal driven by the current master to indicate a memory read
operation. Memory mapped devices using this strobe should decode addresses
LA [23:17] and SA [19:0]. All bus masters will drive this line with a tri-state driver.
The permanent master ties this line to VCC through a pull-up resistor to ensure
that it is inactive during the exchange of bus masters.
MEMR#
MEMW#
This is an active low signal driven by the current master to indicate a memory write
operation. Memory mapped devices using this strobe should decode addresses
LA [23:17] and SA [19:0]. All bus masters will drive this line with a tri-state driver.

2.4.19.1.4Transfer Response
Signal
Signal Description
This is an active low signal driven by an I/O-mapped PC-AT/PC104 adapter
indicating that the I/O device located at the address is a 16-bit device. This open
collector signal is driven, based on SA [15:0] only (not IOR# and IOW#) when AEN
is not asserted.
IOCS16#
MEMCS16#
OWS#
This is an active low signal driven by a memory mapped PC-AT/PC104 adapter
indicating that the memory device located at the address is a 16-bit device. This
open collector signal is driven, based on LA [23:17] only.
This signal is an active low open-collector signal asserted by a 16-bit memory
mapped device that may cause an early termination of the current transfer. It
should be gated with MEMR# or MEMW# and is not valid during DMA transfers.
IOCHRDY precedes 0WS#.
This is an active high signal driven inactive by the target of either a memory or an
I/O operation to extend the current cycle. This open collector signal is driven based
on the system address and the appropriate control strobe. IOCHRDY precedes
0WS#.
IOCHRDY
IOCHCK#
This is an active low signal driven active by a PC-AT/PC104 adapter detecting a
fatal error during bus operation. When this open collector signal is driven low it will
typically cause a non-maskable interrupt.
2.4.19.1.5Control
Signal
Signal Description
This clock signal may vary in frequency from 2.5 MHz to 25.0 MHz depending on
the setup made in the BIOS. Frequencies above 16 MHz are not recommended.
The standard states 6 MHz to 8.33 MHz, but most new adapters are able to handle
higher frequencies. The PC-AT/PC104 bus timing is based on this clock signal.
This is a clock signal with a 14.31818 MHz ± 50 ppm frequency and a 50 ± 5%
duty cycle. The signal is driven by the permanent master.
SYSCLK
OSC
This active high signal indicates that the adapter should be brought to an initial
reset condition. This signal will be asserted by the permanent master on the bus
for at least 100 ms at power-up or watchdog time-out to ensure that adapters in the
system are properly reset. When active, all adapters should turn off or tri-state all
drivers connected to the bus.

2.4.19.1.6Interrupts
Signal
Signal Description
These signals are active high signals, which indicate the presence of an
interrupting PC-AT/PC104 bus adapter. Due to the use of pull-ups, unused
interrupt inputs must be masked.
IRQ[3:7], IRQ[9:12]
IRQ[14:15]
2.4.19.1.7Bus Arbitration
Signal
Signal Description
These signals are active high signals driven by a DMA bus adapter to indicate a
request for a DMA bus operation. DRQ [0:3] request 8 bit DMA operations, while
DRQ [5:7] request 16 bit operations. All bus DMA adapters will drive these lines
with a tri-state driver. The permanent master monitors these signals to determine
which of the DMA devices, if any, are requesting the bus.
DRQ[0:3], DRQ[5:7]
These signals are active low signals driven by the permanent master to indicate
that a DMA operation can begin. They are continuously driven by a totem pole
driver for DMA channels attached.
DACK[0:3]#,
DACK[5:7]#
This signal is an active high totem pole signal driven by the permanent master to
indicate that the address lines are driven by the DMA controller. The assertion of
AEN disables response to I/O port addresses when I/O command strobes are
asserted. AEN being asserted, only the device with active DACKn# should
respond.
AEN
This is an active low signal driven by the current master to indicate a memory
refresh operation. The current master will drive this line with a tri-state driver.
This active high signal is asserted during a read or write command indicating that
the DMA controller has reached a terminal count for the current transfer. DACKn#
must be presented by the bus adapter to validate the TC signal.
REFRESH#

3.1 Starting Setup
The AwardBIOS™ is immediately activated when you first power on the computer. The
BIOS reads the system information contained in the CMOS and begins the process of
checking out the system and configuring it. When it finishes, the BIOS will seek an
operating system on one of the disks and then launch and turn control over to the operating
system.
While the BIOS is in control, the Setup program can be activated in one of two ways:
By pressing <Del> immediately after switching the system on, or
By pressing the <Del> key when the following message appears briefly at the bottom of the
screen during the POST (Power On Self Test).
Press DEL to enter SETUP
If the message disappears before you respond and you still wish to enter Setup, restart the
system to try again by turning it OFF then ON or pressing the "RESET" button on the
system case. You may also restart by simultaneously pressing <Ctrl>, <Alt>, and <Delete>
keys. If you do not press the keys at the correct time and the system does not boot, an error
message will be displayed and you will again be asked to.
Press F1 to Continue, DEL to enter SETUP

3.4 In Case of Problems
If, after making and saving system changes with Setup, you discover that your computer no
longer is able to boot, the AwardBIOS™ supports an override to the CMOS settings which
resets your system to its defaults.
The best advice is to only alter settings which you thoroughly understand. To this end, we
strongly recommend that you avoid making any changes to the chipset defaults. These
defaults have been carefully chosen by both Award and your systems manufacturer to
provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Even a seemingly small change
to the chipset setup has the potential for causing you to use the override.

Advanced Chipset Features
This section allows you to configure the system based on the specific features of the
installed chipset. This chipset manages bus speeds and access to system memory
resources, such as DRAM and the external cache. It also coordinates communications
between the conventional ISA bus and the PCI bus. It must be stated that these items
should never need to be altered. The default settings have been chosen because they
provide the best operating conditions for your system. The only time you might consider
making any changes would be if you discovered that data was being lost while using your
system.
The first chipset settings deal with CPU access to dynamic random access memory
(DRAM). The default timings have been carefully chosen and should only be altered if data
is being lost. Such a scenario might well occur if your system had mixed speed DRAM
chips installed so that greater delays may be required to preserve the integrity of the data
held in the slower memory chips.
