Description
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of system board function extended technology, particularly the super transfer bus of system board setting can be designed to use high frequency connectors series connection, become and have expandability and variational system board about a kind of.
Background technology
Mainboard (Main Board, M/B) be maximum in a computing machine circuit board, it provides the installation slot for CPU, internal memory and various function card, and provide the connection communication interface for various I/O equipment, multimedia and communication facilities, computing machine can couple together various assemblies such as CPU and external unit by this mainboard, form the complete system of a cover, and computing machine must be finished to controlling all of Installed System Memory, memory element and other I/O equipment by mainboard.
At requirements of different users and range of application, mainboard is designed to different types, mainly is divided into: desktop computer mainboard and server/workstation mainboard.The desktop computer mainboard is meant the mainboard that is applied in personal computer, and template is ATX or Micro AT external, and uses common chassis power supply.Server/workstation mainboard is the mainboard product that is exclusively used in server/workstation, and template is bigger ATX, EATX or WATX structure, uses special-purpose machine box for server power supply.
Super transmission (Hyper Transport; HT) be that a kind of integrated circuit of supporting carries out the interconnection technique of high speed, the point-to-point contact of high-performance, can satisfy the frequency range needs of next generation computer and communications platform.Not only help the number that reduces bus, guarantee that also personal computer, workstation, server, multiple different Embedded Application scheme and the multicomputer system of high flexible can carry out high performance linking.In addition, hyper transport technology also can be guaranteed the personal computer chip, network and communications device can be than the existing fast 48 times speed mutual communication of some bussing technique.Therefore, in multiple different computer-internal bussing technique, hyper transport technology provides higher compatibility and frequency range.
See also Fig. 1, the existing system main board writing is general all to be installed in other assembly such as memory element 122 etc. of north bridge chips 111, South Bridge chip 112, CPU (central processing unit) 121 and some on the same circuit board, and between two CPU (central processing unit) 121, between CPU (central processing unit) 121 and the north bridge chips 111 and all interconnect by super transfer bus 13 between CPU (central processing unit) 121 and the South Bridge chip 112.
The shortcoming of said system mainboard 1 is: when needs are changed the CPU (central processing unit) 121 of new model or the model of memory element 122 is extended for DDRII by DDR, because the CPU (central processing unit) 121 and the slot-type of memory element 122 on system board 1 of different model have nothing in common with each other, thereby, if need to change or the wherein arbitrary assembly of upgrading, the monoblock circuit board all must be changed.Secondly, the system board 1 that shows among Fig. 1 is symmetrical multiprocessing (Symmetrical Multi-Processing, SMP) system's (being called for short the 2P system), just use the identical CPU (central processing unit) 121 of two product types and running frequency, if the user needs system board 1 is expanded into the 4P system, then need to increase the slot number of the CPU (central processing unit) 121 on the system board 1, because existing project organization makes that the extendibility of system board 1 is relatively poor, therefore, also need the monoblock circuit board is changed.
Therefore, how to propose a kind of monoblock circuit board that need not to change, each assembly on this circuit board can be changed separately, and can not be had influence on the mainboard structure of other assembly, make the more flexible aspect expansion and replacement of system board, become problem to be overcome at present.
Summary of the invention
For solving the shortcoming of above-mentioned prior art, what fundamental purpose of the present invention was to provide a kind of extended function that improves system board has expandability and a variational system board.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of have expandability and variational system board, under the situation that does not have influence on other assembly, the associated component of altering system mainboard makes the renewal operation of this system board more flexible separately.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a kind of have expandability and variational system board, can utilize the circuit board that is provided with CPU (central processing unit) set system chipset is verified and to be upgraded.
For reaching above-mentioned and other purpose, of the present invention have expandability and variational system board comprises: first circuit board, be provided with system chipset (Chip Set), this system chipset is made up of South Bridge chip and north bridge chips, and this first circuit board also is provided with super transfer bus; Second circuit board is provided with CPU (central processing unit), when this system board is symmetrical multiprocessing system, interconnects by super transfer bus between two CPU (central processing unit); And connector, be high frequency connectors, electrically connect with this first circuit board and second circuit board, and the super transfer bus that is arranged on this first circuit board is electrically connected to these high frequency connectors respectively with South Bridge chip and north bridge chips.
Wherein, this system chipset is made up of South Bridge chip (South Bridge) and north bridge chips (NorthBridge), also is provided with super transfer bus on this first circuit board, electrically connects this system chipset and connector; Also interconnect between each CPU (central processing unit) on this second circuit board by this super transfer bus.
Compared with prior art, it is of the present invention that to have expandability and variational system board be system chipset and CPU (central processing unit) can be placed in two independently on the circuit board, the associated component of altering system mainboard can not have influence on other assembly separately, makes the renewal operation of this system board more flexible; And utilize high frequency connectors that two circuit boards are electrically connected, and improve the extendibility of system board, and then reduced cost of products, in addition, also be convenient to carry out the renewal and the checking work of system board.
