HOT-673 is a highly integrated IBM PC/ATX compatible system board designed to
meet the industry's most demanding desktop applications.
Based on the Intel 82443LX AGPset chipset, the Intel PentiumTM II processor with
MMX technology featured, and 256KB or 512KB Level 2 high-performance pipelined
burst secondary 168-pin DIMM socket and supports up to 384MB of EDO RAM and
SDRAM.
HOT-673 is equipped with an Accelerated Graphics Port (A.G.P.), a high-performance
interconnect for graphic-intensive application, such as 3D applications. The A.G.P. is
independent of the PCI bus and is designed to exclusively use with graphical-display
devices. The HOT-673 supports 3.3 V A.G.P. devices with data transfer rates up to 133
MHz, allowing data throughput of 500 MB/sec.
The Intel's 82443LX AGPset chipset provides an integrated Bus Mastering IDE control-
ler with two high performance IDE interfaces which allows up to four IDE devices
connection and up to 33 MB/sec of data transfer rates.
The on-board I/O controller provides standard PC I/O functions:
floppy drive interface, two FIFO serial ports, an IrDA device port and a SPP/EPP/ECP
capable parallel port.
HOT-673 is built with two PCI local bus slots providing a high bandwidth data path for
data-movement intensive functions such as graphics, and with two ISA slots.
HOT-673 provides the foundation for cost effective, high performance and highly
expandable platforms, which delivers the latest in the Intel PentiumTM II processor and
new advanced chipset technology.

Board Size:
MicroATX form factor 244mm x 170mm.
Advanced Features:
CPU Plug & Play -- HOT-673 featuring CPU Plug & Play function, the user needn't to adjust
onboard system clock and CPU multiplier. When the system first power-on, BIOS will set CPU
clock speed to 233 MHz automatically. If your CPU speed higher than 233 MHz., one thing you
only have to do is entry BIOS to set CPU speed to the higher one.
Low EMI -- Spread Spectrum built in - ±1.5% modulation and automatic clock shut-off of unused
PCI/SDRAMS slots to reduce the EMI.
Dual Function Power Button -- The system can be one of two states, one is Suspend mode and
the other is the Soft-off mode. Pushing the power button for less than 4 seconds will place the
system into Suspend mode. When push the power button for more than 4 seconds, the system
enters the Soft-off mode.
Wake-On-LAN -- The system will power-on automatically by activating of LAN.
(This function support Intel LAN card only).
Modem Ring Power-on -- The system will power-on automatically by activating of modem ring.
PS/2 Keyboard & Mouse Power-on -- The system will power-on automatically by stroke key-
board or double click PS/2 mouse.
MoreAdvancedFeatures (optional):
Voltages Monitoring -- System voltages levels are monitored to ensure stable current to main
board components.
System voltages include VCORE and VL2 for CPU, and +5V, +12V, -5V, -12V for system.
FAN Status Monitoring -- To prevent CPU overheat, CPU fans is monitored for RPM and failure.
(CPU Cooling FAN with RPM sensor is required)

The Pentium™ II Processor
Figure 2-1
Figure 2-2 Figure 2-3
The Pentium™ II and Celeron™ processor is the next member of the P6 processor family.
It combines the architectural advances in the Pentium Pro processor with the instruction set
extensions of MMX technology. It is fully compatible with the huge base of Intel architec-
ture-based PC software. Additional, the Pentium™ II processor delivers new levels of
performance for advance media and communications software including powerful, realistic
graphics and imaging capabilities, video conference, and the ability to run full-screen, full-
motion video. The combination of these advanced technologies makes the Pentium™ II
processor the ideal choice foe executing modem 32-bit compute-intensive and multimedia-
enhanced application work loads using advanced 32-bit operating systems.
The Pentium™ II and Celeron processor both have a separate, 32KB, on-chip, non-blocking
L1 cache which run at the processor frequency, Pentium™ II processor also has a 512KB or
256KB on-board L2 non-blocking cache runs at half the processor speed.
The Pentium™ II processor using Single Edge Contact Cartridge (S.E.C.C.) and S.E.C.C.2
packaging technology which enables high volume availability, improved handling protec-
tion.
The Celeron™ processor using Single Edge Processor Package. ( S.E.P.P.)
Figure 2-1 shows the front, rear and top views of Pentium™ II processor (without heat sink
mounted).
Figure 2-2 shows the S.E.C.C.2 package of Pentium™ II processor.
Figure 2-3 shows the primary and non-primary side of Celeron™ processor without heat
sink mounted and with heat sink mounted.

What does the URM (Universal Retention Mechanism) consist of
Pentium II processor requires the Retention Mechanism (RM) and optional Heat Sink
Support (HSS) to hold the base processor in the S.E.C. cartridge.(or SECC 2)
Following installation procedure will display how to install these mechanism.
Retention Mechanism package consists of 2 separate parts and optional Heat Sink Support
consists of 3 separate parts.
Normally, depend on the type of heat sink, Heat Sink Support is not always available. For
some heat sink attached on pentium II processor might not fit to install the Heat Sink
Support. The introduction of Heat Sink Support installation on this manual only for your
reference.
Universal Retention Mechanism (URM) -
Plastic Guide with captive nuts that hold the
S.E.C. Cartridge in the Slot1 connector.
(Refer to Figure 2-4)
URM Attach Mount (URMAM) -
Bolt/Bridge assemblies inserted up through
the bottom of the mainboard. Then secures the
URM to URMAM (two URMAM required per URM).
(Refer to Figure 2-5)
Figure 2-4
Figure 2-5
Install the Universal Retention Mechanism
Place the mainboard on a workbench (not in a chassis). Be sure that the mainboard is bare
(that is, no DIMMs, cables, or cards are installed).
Install the Retention Mechanism :
1. Finds out the Universal Retention
Mechanism (URM) Mounting Holes
of Slot1 on HOT-673 main board.
(Refer to Figure 2-6)
2. Install two Universal Retention
Mechanism Attach Mounts (URMAM)
with Bolt/Bridge assemblies inserted
up through the bottom of the
mainboard. (Notice the URMAM's
bridge orientation as Figure 2-7)
