Central Processing Unit (CPU)

The CUR-DLS motherboard has two ZIF Socket 370 connectors. One con-
nector can have one FC-PGA processor installed. Each processor must have
a fan heatsink attached to it to prevent overheating.

When only one processor is used, the other S370 connector can be termi-
nated with the optional S370 terminator to improve signaling.

For memory installation, refer to the motherboard User’s Manual.

Installing S370 CPU

Locate the ZIF socket and open it by first pulling the lever sideways away
from the socket then upwards to a 90-degree angle. Insert the CPU with the
correct orientation. The notched corner should point towards the end of the
lever. Because the CPU has a corner pin for two of the four corners, the
CPU will only fit in the orientation as shown. Once completely inserted,
close the socket’s lever while holding down the CPU.
