Gigabyte B460M POWER Rev 1.01 Schematic
Technical Specifications
Technical Summary
The Gigabyte B460M POWER motherboard, revision 1.01, is built around the Intel LGA1200 (Comet Lake) CPU platform paired with the B460 PCH. The system memory architecture consists of two DDR4 DIMM slots. The embedded controller is an ITE 8686 LPC I/O, with the LPC I/O ITE8688 package. Audio is handled by a Realtek ALC887 codec, and networking is provided by a Realtek 8111G LAN IC. The BIOS is stored on a 128M SPI flash. Power management is managed by ISL95866 VCCGT-IRON, ISL95866 VCORE-IRON, and ISL95866 PWM-IRON controllers, alongside RT8237_DDR_BEAD, RT8068A_VPP, and RT8237_PCH-BEAD power ICs. The graphics subsystem is integrated into the CPU, with an RTD2168 DP to VGA IC for display output. The board also features an M.2 X4 (A) slot for wireless connectivity and an IT8892E card reader IC.
