Intel® Desktop Board D875PBZ
Connectors

CAUTION

On the Intel® Desktop Board D875PBZ, only the following connectors have overcurrent protection:

  • Back panel USB and PS/2
  • Front panel USB

The other internal connectors of the Intel® Desktop Board D875PBZ are not overcurrent protected and should connect only to devices inside the computer's chassis, such as fans and internal peripherals. Do not use these connectors to power devices external to the computer's chassis. A fault in the load presented by the external devices could cause damage to the computer, the interconnecting cable, and the external devices themselves.

Back Panel Connectors

The figure below shows the location of the back panel connectors. The back panel connectors are color-coded in compliance with PC 99 recommendations. The figure legend below lists the colors used.


 

Item Description Color
A PS/2 mouse port Green
B PS/2 keyboard port Purple
C USB ports (four) Black
D Serial port A Teal
E Parallel port Burgundy
F LAN Black
G USB ports (two) Black
H Audio line in (optional) Light blue
I Mic in (optional) Pink
J Audio line out (optional) Lime green

Internal I/O Connectors

The internal I/O connectors are divided into the following functional groups:

  • Audio
  • Power and hardware control
  • Add-in boards and peripheral interfaces

Power and Hardware Control Connectors

CAUTION
The processor fan must be connected to the processor fan connector, not to a chassis fan connector. Connecting the processor fan to a chassis fan connector may result in onboard component damage that will halt fan operation.

The figure below shows the location of the power and hardware control connectors.

Note: Do not use a standard ATX power supply. The Intel® Desktop Board D875PBZ will not boot with a standard ATX power supply. Use only ATX12V-compliant power supplies with the Intel® Desktop Board D875PBZ. ATX12V power supplies have an additional power lead that provides required supplemental power for the Intel® Pentium® 4 processor. The Intel® Desktop Board D875PBZ will not boot if the ATX12V power supply is not connected to both the 4-pin and 20-pin power connectors.

Add-in Board and Peripheral Interface Connectors

The figure below shows the location of the add-in board and peripheral connectors for the Intel® Desktop Board D875PBZ. Note the following considerations for the PCI bus connectors:

  • All of the PCI bus connectors are bus master capable.
  • The SMBus is routed to PCI bus connector 2. This enables PCI bus add-in boards with SMBus support to access sensor data on the Desktop Board D875PBZ. The specific SMBus signals are as follows:
  • The SMBus clock line is connected to pin A40
  • The SMBus data line is connected to pin A41

Integrator's notes

  • The +5 V DC power on the USB connector is fused.
  • Pins 1, 3, 5, and 7 comprise one USB port.
  • Pins 2, 4, 6, and 8 comprise one USB port.
  • Use only a front panel USB connector that conforms to the USB 2.0 specification for high-speed USB devices.

This applies to:
