Technical Specifications
Technical Summary
The Compal LA-733 REV 4A schematic, dated March 5, 2001, documents the N32N motherboard for the Hurricane 1.6 project. The platform is built around an Intel Coppermine (uPGA2) CPU with a PIIX4 southbridge. The system BIOS is stored on an SST 37N869 flash IC. Embedded controller functions are handled by a KBC 87570. Audio is provided by an ESS ES1988 codec, while the LAN controller is a SiS 900. Power management and charging are managed by a MAX1632 and a MAX1711. The memory architecture supports SDRAM via a single 144-pin SO-DIMM socket. A discrete VGA board is connected via a dedicated connector, and a TI 1420 controller manages CardBus slots.
