.
Installing the processor
The TP945GM motherboard supports the following embedded Intel processors. Note
that the Core Duo LV L2400 and Celeron M ULV 423 processors are only available as
BGA processors.
Intel Core Duo T2500 2.0GHz
Intel Core Duo LV L2400 1.66GHz
Intel Core 2 Duo T7400 2.16GHz
Intel Celeron M 440 1.86GHz
Intel Celeron M ULV 423 1.06GHz
If a processor you are interested in is not mentioned in this list, refer to the Procelerant
Endura TP945GM Mini-ITX Motherboard Tested Processors List
on the RadiSys Web
site for the latest information.
If you have ordered the TP945GM motherboard with a PGA processor socket, insert
the CPU onto the PGA processor socket. The location of this socket is in
Figure 5,
“Motherboard layout: top view”
on page 5.
Installing the memory
The TP945GM motherboard provides two DIMM memory sockets. It supports 240-pin
dual channel DDR2 667/533/400 MHz memory modules in 256MB, 512MB, 1GB
and 2GB sizes. At least one memory module must be installed to operate the system.
1. Check the way in which the memory module is keyed to the memory socket. Refer
to
Figure 5, “Motherboard layout: top view”
on page 5 for the location of the
memory module sockets.
2. Firmly press each memory module into the socket. The ejector tabs will snap into
place when it they are fully seated.
Tips
If you plan to install only one memory module, either socket can be used.
For dual channel memory support, install two memory modules of the same size and
frequency.
If a total of 4GB memory is installed, only 2.8 - 3.2GB will be available to software applications;
the remainder will be used by system resources.
To remove a memory module, open the ejector tabs on both sides of the memory socket and
remove the memory from the socket.
