Utility 2 Interface

The Utility 2 (J13) interface routes various signals to devices such as a mouse or power button.

Table 3-9

defines the pin signals of the J13, Utility 2 interface header, which consists of 24 pins, 2 rows, odd/even (1,
2) pin sequence with 0.100" (2.54mm) pitch and provides the following functions.

System Management Bus (SMBus)

The ICH7-M, I/O Hub, 82801GBM (Southbridge), contains both a host and slave SMBus port, but the host

cannot access the slave internally. The slave port allows an external master access to the I/O Hub through the
Utility 2 header (J13) as well as the J45 SMBus header. The master contained in the 82801GBM is used to

communicate with the DDR2 SODIMM and the clock generator.

Table 3-8

lists the corresponding binary

addresses of these devices on the SMBus.

Mouse

The signal lines for a PS/2 mouse are provided through the Utility 2 interface (J13).

Power Button

A power button can be connected to the board through the Utility 2 interface as well as through the J46

Power Button header. Press and hold the green button on the power button cable for at least four seconds to

power off the system. To power on the system, press and release the green button and wait for the system to
boot.

-

Backup Battery – This connection provides an additional backup battery
from an external source. It can also be used in place of the on-board
backup battery, B1, shipped with all LittleBoard 735s. Each RTS battery
input is protected with a zener diode.
