STL2 Server Board Architecture Overview

2.STL2 Server Board Architecture Overview

The architecture of the STL2 server board is based on a design that supports dual-processor operation with Intel Pentium III processors and the ServerWorks ServerSet III LE chipset.

The STL2 server contains embedded devices for video, NIC, SCSI, and IDE. The STL2 server board also provides support for server management and monitoring hardware, and interrupt control that supports dual-processor and PC/AT compatible operation.

The section provides an overview of the following STL2 subsystems:

2.1 Intel® Pentium® III Processor Subsystem

The STL2 server board is designed to accommodate one or two Intel Pentium III processors for the PGA370 socket. The Pentium III processor for the PGA370 socket is the next member of the P6 family in the Intel IA-32 processor line. This processor uses the same core and offers the same performance as the Intel Pentium III processor for the SC242 connector, but utilizes a new package technology called flip chip pin grid array, or FC-PGA. This package utilizes the same 370-pin zero-insertion force socket (PGA370) used by the Intel® Celeron™ processor .

The STL2 server board utilizes Pentium III PGA370 socket processors, which interface with the front side bus at 133 MHz.
