IMBA-C2260-i2 ATX Motherboard DIMM Dual Inline Memory Modules are a type of RAM that offer a 64-bit data bus and have separate electrical contacts on each side of the module. DIO The digital inputs and digital outputs are general control signals that control the on/off circuit of external devices or TTL devices. Data can be read or written to the selected address to enable the DIO functions.

IMBA-C2260-i2 ATX Motherboard LVDS Low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS) is a dual-wire, high-speed differential electrical signaling system commonly used to connect LCD displays to a computer. POST The Power-on Self Test (POST) is the pre-boot actions the system performs when the system is turned-on. RAM Random Access Memory (RAM) is volatile memory that loses data when power is lost. RAM has very fast data transfer rates compared to other storage like hard drives.

IMBA-C2260-i2 ATX Motherboard D.1 Introduction The DIO connector on the IMBA-C2260-i2 is interfaced to GPIO ports on the Super I/O chipset. The DIO has both 4-bit digital inputs and 4-bit digital outputs. The digital inputs and digital outputs are generally control signals that control the on/off circuit of external devices or TTL devices. Data can be read or written to the selected address to enable the DIO functions. NOTE: For further information, please refer to the datasheet for the Super I/O chipset.
