Chipset Features Setup

The “Chipset Features Setup” option controls the configuration of the board’s chipset.

NOTE: SETUP Defaults are noted in parenthesis next to each function heading.

Details of Chipset Features Setup

EDO Auto Configuration (60ns DRAM)

For EDO DRAM only

The default setting of 60ns DRAM sets the optimal timings for items 2 through 5 for

60ns DRAM modules. If you are using 70ns DRAM modules, you must change this

item to 70ns DRAM. See 2. System Memory in section III for DRAM installation

information.

SDRAM Configuration (12ns SDRAM)

For SDRAM only

This sets the optimal timings of settings for items 2–5, depending on the memory

modules that you are using. This 8-pin serial EEPROM device stores critical param-

eter information about the module, such as memory type, size, speed, voltage inter-

face, and module banks. The default setting is 12ns SDRAM. If your DIMM mod-

ules are all 10ns SDRAM, you may set this to 10ns SDRAM.

SDRAM RAS to CAS Delay (Auto)

This controls the latency between SDRAM active command and the read/write com-

mand. Leave on default setting.

SDRAM RAS Precharge Time (Auto)

This controls the idle clocks after issuing a precharge command to SDRAM. Leave

on default setting.

MA Wait State (Auto)

This controls the leadoff clocks for CPU read cycles. Leave on default setting.

SDRAM Banks Close Policy (Page-Miss)

Leave on default setting.
