Product Description NOTE The keyboard is supported in the bottom PS/2 connector and the mouse is supported in the top PS/2 connector. Power to the computer should be turned off before a keyboard or mouse is connected or disconnected. For information about The location of the keyboard and mouse connectors Refer to Figure 18, page 55 1.11 Audio Subsystem The board supports the Intel High Definition audio subsystem based on the Sigmatel 9221 or the Sigmatel 9220 audio codec. The audio subsystem supports the following features: • Advanced jack sense for the back panel audio jacks that enables the audio codec to recognize the device that is connected to an audio port. The back panel audio jacks are capable of retasking according to user's definition, or can be automatically switched depending on the recognized device type. • Stereo input and output for all back panel jacks • Line out and Mic in functions for front panel audio jacks • A signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio of 90 dB 1.11.1 Audio Subsystem Software Audio software and drivers are available from Intel's World Wide Web site. For information about Refer to Obtaining audio software and drivers Section 1.2, page 15 1.11.2 Audio Connectors The board contains audio connectors on both the back panel and the component side of the board. The component-side audio connectors include the following: • Front panel audio (a 2 x 5-pin connector that provides mic in and line out signals for front panel audio connectors) • ATAPI CD-ROM (an optional 1 x 4-pin ATAPI-style connector for connecting an internal ATAPI CD-ROM drive to the audio mixer) The functions of the back panel audio connectors are dependent on which subsystem is present. The 8-channel (7.1) audio subsystem is described in Section 1.11.3; the 6-channel (5.1) audio subsystem is described in Section 1.11.4.
