Connector X4 Subsystems

7.1

IDE Ports

The Primary IDE host adapter is capable of UDMA/100 operation. The implementation of this subsystem
complies with the ETX® Specification. Implementation information is provided in the ETX® Design Guide.
Refer to those documents for additional information.

A Compact Flash socket (Secondary Master) for commercial Compact Flash modules and a Secondary IDE
Channel is integrated on the module via VT6421A SATA Controller.

Configuration
Primary and secondary IDE host adapters are PCI bus devices. They are configured by the BIOS during PCI
device configuration. You can disable them in setup. Resources used by the primary and secondary IDE
host adapters are compatible with the PC/AT.

7.2

Ethernet

The Ethernet interface is based on the Intel® 82551ER Fast Ethernet PCI controller. This 32-bit PCI
controller is a fully integrated 10/100BASE-TX LAN solution.

The Ethernet interface requires an external transformer. See the ETX® Design Guide for suggestions on
transformer selection.

Configuration
The ETX®-LX provides Ethernet connectivity using the Intel® 82551ER Integrated
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet Controller.

Note:

Implementation and limitation information is provided in the ETX® Design Guide from document revision
2.1. Refer to the documentation for additional information.

7.3

Power Control

7.3.1

Power Good / Reset Input

The ETX®-LX provides an external input for a power-good signal or a manual- reset pushbutton. The
implementation of this subsystem complies with the

ETX® Specification. Implementation information is

provided in the ETX® Design Guide. Refer to the documentation for additional information.

7.4

Power Management

7.4.1

ATX PS Control

The ETX®-LX can control the main power output of an ATX-style power supply. The implementation of this
subsystem complies with the ETX® Specification. Implementation information is provided in the ETX®
Design Guide
. Refer to the documentation for additional information.
