Chapter 1 Overview The AP5VM is a high-performance Pentium®-based system board that utilizes the PCI/ISA architecture. It integrates the Intel 82430VX PCIset, a super I/O controller, and a PCI mode 4 enhanced IDE controller with bus master support to enhance system performance. It has four single in-line memory module (SIMM) sockets and one Dual in-line memory module (DIMM) that allow system memory expansion up to a maximum of 128MB. It also supports 256KB and 512KB pipelined-burst second-level cache onboard. One main feature of AP5VM is the green power-management function that extends energy conservation from system components to display monitor. It complies with the power-saving standards of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star program.
