Motherboard Description SY-K7VTA PRO

1-7 MEMORY
1-7.1 Main Memory
The motherboard has three DIMM sockets. SDRAM can be installed in
one, two, or three sockets. Using the serial presence detect (SPD) data
structure, programmed into an E²PROM on the DIMM, the BIOS can
determine the SDRAM’s size and speed. Minimum DIMM memory size is
8 MB; maximum DIMM memory size is 256/512 MB. Memory size and
speed can vary between sockets.
The motherboard supports the following memory features:
 DRAM interface synchronous with host CPU (66/100/133MHz) or
AGP (66MHz) for more flexible configuration
 DRAM interface may be faster than CPU by 33 MHz to allow use
of PC133 memory modules
 DRAM interface may be slower than CPU by 33 MHz to allow use
of older memory modules with newer CPUs
 Concurrent CPU, AGP, and PCI access
 Supports SDRAM and VCM SDRAM memory types
 Different DRAM types may be used in mixed combinations
 Different DRAM timing for each bank
 Dynamic Clock Enable (CKE) control for SDRAM power
reduction in high speed system.
 Mixed 1M/2M/4M/8M/16M/32MxN DRAMs
 The K7VTA PRO supports 3 DIMMs or 6 banks at 133MHz for
1.5GB (max memory)
 Flexible row and column addresses
 64-bit data width and 3.3V DRAM interface
 Programmable I/O drive capability for MA, command, and MD
signals
 Supports PC100 and PC133 SDRAM
 Two-bank interleaving for 16Mbit SDRAM support
 Two-bank and four bank interleaving for 64Mbit SDRAM support
 Independent SDRAM control for each bank
