WAFER-LX Motherboard 5.1 Anti-static Precautions Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can cause serious damage to electronic components, including the WAFER-LX. (Dry climates are especially susceptible to ESD.) It is therefore critical that whenever the WAFER-LX (or any other electrical component) is handled, the following anti-static precautions are strictly adhered to. Wear an anti-static wrist band: - Wearing a simple anti-static wrist band can help to prevent ESD from damaging the board.
PAGE 82
WAFER-LX Motherboard o When installing or configuring the motherboard, place it on an antistatic pad. This helps to prevent potential ESD damage. Turn off all power to the WAFER-LX: o When working with the motherboard, make sure that it is disconnected from all power supplies and that no electricity is being fed into the system. Before and during the installation of the WAFER-LX DO NOT do the following: DO NOT remove any of the stickers on the PCB board.

WAFER-LX Motherboard DMA Direct Memory Access (DMA) enables some peripheral devices to bypass the system processor and communicate directly with the system memory. 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.

WAFER-LX Motherboard C.1 Introduction The DIO connector on the WAFER-LX 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. C.

WAFER-LX Motherboard NOTE: The following discussion applies to DOS environment. IEI support is contacted or the IEI website visited for specific drivers for more sophisticated operating systems, e.g., Windows and Linux. The Watchdog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can always recover from catastrophic conditions that cause the CPU to crash. This condition may have occurred by external EMIs or a software bug.

WAFER-LX Motherboard Appendix H H RAID Levels Page 201
PAGE 220
WAFER-LX Motherboard RAID allows multiple disks to be connected in an array. A RAID array allows extra capabilities like increased speed and performance, or increased data protection and security. A RAID array is viewed as a single disk by the computer and the operating system. Details of the different RAID levels are outlined in the sections below. WARNING! Irrecoverable data loss occurs if a working drive is removed when trying to remove a failed drive.
PAGE 221
WAFER-LX Motherboard H.1 RAID 0 RAID 0, or striping, spreads data evenly over the disks in the RAID array. One block of data is written to the first disk, then one block of data is written to the second disk, and so on. The same applies for data reads. RAID 0 offers faster performance than a single disk setup. Read and write performance is increased. RAID 0 is not as secure as a single disk, and the failure of just one disk in the array results in failure of the whole array.
PAGE 222
WAFER-LX Motherboard H.2 RAID 1 RAID 1, or mirroring, places the exact same data on all disks in the RAID array. One block of data is written to the first disk, the same block of data is written to the second disk, and so on. When data is read, it can be read from either disk in the array. RAID 1 offers more data security than a single disk setup. Read and write performance is the same as a single disk.
PAGE 223
WAFER-LX Motherboard H.3 JBOD JBOD, sometimes called concatenation, strings physical hard disks together to create one larger logical disk. Blocks of data are written to the first disk until it is finished and then the blocks are written to the second drive, and so on. JBOD offers no extra security and no extra performance. It is useful for combining smaller disks into a single large logical disk.
