PM-LX-800 CPU Card

2.4 Memory Support

Up to 1GB of DDR 333 MHz SO-DIMM SDRAM is supported.

2.5 PCI Bus Interface Support

The GeodeLink PCI South Bridge (GLPCI_SB) provides a PCI interface for the Geode

CS5536 system chipset. The GLPCI_SB acts as a PCI master or PCI slave in providing

PCI transactions to and from the Geode CS5536 system chipset and the PCI bus. A

special serial interface to the Geode LX processor, the CPU Interface Serial (CIS) assists

in the transfer of information between the Geode CS5536 companion device and the

Geode LX processor.

The interface is compliant to PCI specification v2.2 and may operate at up to 66 MHz.

Within a PCI burst, zero wait state operation is achieved. The PCI interface supports

programmable IDSEL selection, and can handle inbound transactions immediately after

system reset.

2.6 Ethernet

The Realtek RTL8100C(L) is a single-chip Fast Ethernet controller. It is enhanced with an

ACPI (Advanced Configuration Power Interface) management function for PCI in order to

provide efficient power management for advanced operating systems with OSPM

(Operating System Directed Power Management). Realtek RTL8100C features are listed

below.

128-pin PQFP/LQFP (PQFP package pin-to-pin compatible with Realtek
