11.2 Signal Description

When

POWERGD goes high it starts the reset generator on the CPU module to pull the

onboard reset line high after a valid reset period. You also can use this pin as a low active
hardware reset for modules

A battery (signal

BATT) is not needed to hold CMOS setup data. Your configurations for

hard disks, floppy drives and other peripherals are saved in an onboard EEPROM. However
you need a battery to save the CMOS date and time when power supply is turned off

SPKR is an output to drive a piezo electronic speaker
