Technical Specifications
Technical Summary
This Samsung BA41-XXXXX Geneva motherboard, revision 1.0 dated October 23, 2007, is built on the SANTAROSA CHIPSET platform supporting a Merom-4M CPU in a 478pin socket. The platform features an ICH8-M southbridge and a Crestline-GMCH northbridge. Graphics are handled by an NVIDIA NB8P GPU with IGFX/EGFX CRT support. Memory architecture consists of dual-channel DDR II 667/533,400 across two SODIMM slots. Audio is provided by an ALC262 codec. The system uses an SPI ROM for BIOS storage and a MEC (TBD) EC/KBC with SPI ROM programming capability. Power management includes a BQ24721 charging IC and MVP-6 power IC. Networking is handled by an 82562V LAN IC and a Kedron WLAN module. A Marvell card reader controller and GL961 USB hub IC are also present.
