SPI-8450-LLVA

2.2 CPU

Installation:

The SPI-8450-LLVA Industrial CPU Card supports a single Intel 478pin FC-PGA2

type Pentium 4 or Celeron processor. The processor’s VID pins automatically program the

voltage regulator on the CPU card to the required processor voltage. The host bus speed is

automatically selected. The processor connects to the CPU card through the 478-pins socket.

The CPU card supports the processors listed in table below:

Celeron processor

Host Bus frequency

Cache size

400MHz

128KB

Pentium 4 processor

Host Bus frequency

Cache size

400MHz / 533MHz

512KB

The socket-478 comes with a lever to secure the processor. Make sure the notch on the

corner of the CPU corresponds with the notch on the inside of the socket.

After you have installed the processor into the socket 478, check if the configuration

setup for the CPU type and speed are correct. The CPU should always have a Heat Sink and a

cooling fan attached to prevent overheating.

Note: Ensure that the CPU heat sink and the CPU top surface are in total contact to avoid CPU

overheating problem that would cause your system to hang or be unstable.
