tion. Direct Media Interface (DMI) is the chip-to-chip connection
between the processor and PCH. Intel® Flexible Display Interface
carries display traffic from the integrated graphics in the processor
to the legacy display connectors in the PCH. The PCH supports all
other required interfaces including PCI Express, SATA 6 Gb/s,
USB 3.0, PCI, LPC, and SPI.
Dual-Channel DDR3 Memory
To meet the requirements of memory-intensive applications, the
NuPRO-E42 has a dual-channel memory architecture supporting
DDR3 1333/1600 MHz DIMMs. The key advantages of DDR3 are
the higher bandwidth and the increase in performance at lower
power than DDR2. DDR3 memory technology meets the require-
ments of the latest 3D graphics, multimedia, and network applica-
tion, and boosts system performance by eliminating bottlenecks.
Gigabit Ethernet
The NuPRO-E42 utilizes an Intel® I217LM Gigabit Ethernet PHY
and Intel® I211-AT Gigabit Ethernet Controller connected to the
PCI-E bus of the Q87 PCH. Intel® AMT 9.0 (I217LM on LAN1),
Wake-on-LAN and PXE are supported.
Serial ATA
The NuPRO-E42 provides four Serial ATA ports with data transfer
rates of up to 6.0 GB/s. Intel® Rapid Storage Technology supports
AHCI and RAID 0/1/5/10 functionality.
Universal Serial Bus (USB 2.0/3.0)
The NuPRO-E42 provides 4 USB 2.0 ports (backplane) supporting
transfer rates up to 480 Mb/s and 6 USB 3.0 ports (2x on rear
panel, 4x on SHB) supporting transfer rates up to 5 Gb/s. All ports
are USB 2.0/1.1 compatible.
Hardware monitoring
A built-in, proactive hardware monitoring system in the Super I/O
monitors the CPU temperature, system fan speed, and voltage
levels to prevent overheating and/or component damage, effect
