Introduction
Thank you for choosing the D6-IN system board. The
high-performance D6-IN supports the most advanced
Pentium
Pro
microprocessor technology for demanding
workstation needs.
Based on the Intel 440FX PCIset, the D6-IN provides the
speed and performance necessary to address the most
intensive computational applications. Enhanced PCI
throughput, Mode 4 IDE and optional support of Uni-
versal Serial Bus (USB), make this board state-of-the-art.
The USB interface has a maximum bandwidth of 12Mbps
and can connect as many as 127 devices to a host system.
USB supports both standard devices that operate at the
full 12Mbps rate and low-end devices that use only a
1.5Mbps subchannel.
The D6-IN comes with many features. These include
support for Extended Data Out (EDO) and Fast Page
Mode (FPM) DRAM memory, Error Checking and Cor-
rection (ECC) and the Phoenix Plug and Play BIOS.
Micronics builds all products to exacting standards, using
the highest quality components available. We are proud
to provide this system board and believe you will be
pleased with your purchase.
