Technical Specifications
Technical Summary
This Pegatron VA70_HW motherboard, revision 1.0 dated February 4, 2013, is engineered by Wing_Cheng and built around the Intel Haswell CPU platform using a Haswell rPGA EDS U0301ASOCKET_947P socket. The platform is paired with an Intel Lynx Point PCH and features a discrete NVIDIA N14E dGPU. System memory consists of two DDR3L SO-DIMM slots supporting 1333/1600 MHz. The embedded controller is an IT8528E, and the audio subsystem is handled by a Realtek ALC3225 codec. The BIOS and EC firmware share a 4MB SPI ROM, while a separate 2MB SPI ROM is dedicated to the Management Engine. Networking is provided by a Broadcom BCM57780 Gigabit LAN controller, and a Realtek RTS5209 card reader is integrated. The power architecture includes a smart charger subsystem.
