INTRODUCTION

Introduction

Product Description

The AMD Embedded G-Series Processors with AMD Radeon™ HD 6000 Series

Graphics combine the central processing unit (CPU) with the graphics processing unit (GPU) in a single-chip Accelerated Processing Unit (APU) package. The APU connects to the AMD A55E Fusion Controller Hub through the Unified Media Interface (UMI) to provide connections to the different system devices. Dimensions of the board are 170mm x 170mm.

AMD Embedded G-Series processor-based systems include the DDR3 memory interface, PCIe, UMI, DDI (Digital Display Interface), power delivery and miscellaneous test signals that connect to the processor.

The AMD A55E Fusion Controller Hub is designed to deliver the quality and performance needed for everyday computing, ultitasking, and multimedia functionality. It also provides expanded I/O connectivity for advanced usage models to take advantage of modern peripheral devices.

The main features of the board are:

ƒ

Supports Dual Core AMD Embedded G-Series Processors

ƒ

Supports up to DDR3-1066 MT/s

ƒ

Two DDR3 SDRAM DIMMs, Max.8GB memory

ƒ

Onboard Realtek Gigabit LAN

ƒ

4x SATA-III, 8x USB 2.0, 4x COM, Watchdog timer,

ƒ

1x PCI,1x PCI-E(x1) slots

ƒ

1x VGA,1x DVI,1x LVDS

BIOS SETUP

BIOS Introduction

The BIOS (Basic Input/Output System) installed in your computer system’s ROM supports Intel processors. The BIOS provides critical low-level support for a standard device such as disk drives, serial ports and parallel ports. It also password protection as well as special support for detailed fine-tuning of the chipset controlling the entire system.

BIOS Setup

The BIOS provides a Setup utility program for specifying the system configurations and settings. The BIOS ROM of the system stores the

Setup utility. When you turn on the computer, the BIOS is immediately activated. Pressing the <Del> key immediately allows you to enter the

Setup utility. If you are a little bit late pressing the <Del> key, POST

(Power On Self Test) will continue with its test routines, thus preventing you from invoking the Setup. If you still wish to enter Setup, restart the system by pressing the ”Reset” button or simultaneously pressing the

<Ctrl>, <Alt> and <Delete> keys. You can also restart by turning the system Off and back On again. The following message will appear on the screen:

Press <DEL> to Enter Setup

In general, you press the arrow keys to highlight items, <Enter> to select, the <PgUp> and <PgDn> keys to change entries, <F1> for help and <Esc> to quit.

When you enter the Setup utility, the Main Menu screen will appear on the screen. The Main Menu allows you to select from various setup functions and exit choices.

Note: If the system cannot boot after making and saving system changes with Setup, the AMI BIOS supports an override to the CMOS settings that resets your system to its default.

Warning: It is strongly recommended that you avoid making any changes to the chipset defaults. These defaults have been carefully chosen by both AMI and your system manufacturer to provide the absolute maximum performance and reliability. Changing the defaults could cause the system to become unstable and crash in some cases.

C. Watchdog Timer Configuration

The WDT is used to generate a variety of output signals after a user programmable count. The WDT is suitable for use in the prevention of system lock-up, such as when software becomes trapped in a deadlock.

Under these sorts of circumstances, the timer will count to zero and the selected outputs will be driven. Under normal circumstance, the user will restart the WDT at regular intervals before the timer counts to zero.
