FEATURES AND SPECIFICATIONS MicroCross™ ADD2 Channel DVI Card Datasheet 79530 ADD2 cards now used in Intel 945G as well as 915G-based PC desktops equipped with a PCIExpress* slot; ADD2 cards are low-cost solutions that enable a DIGITAL VISUAL INTERFACE (DVI) connection Molex’s Advanced Digital Display 2 (ADD2) adapter cards provide a convenient and cost-effective solution for connecting a DVI digital display to the graphics controller of any 915G or 946G-equipped motherboard or high-end PC with a vacant PCI Express (PCIe) 16X slot port. Simply insert the ADD2 card into the PCIe slot and it will be DVI compatible. When the computer boots-up, the system automatically loads the ADD2 card configuration information, which is stored in a serial EEPROM. ADD2 cards are small-size boards that ensure full hardware and software compatibility, supporting the full-range of digital display resolutions from VGA (Video Graphics Array) to UXGA (Ultra Extended Graphics Array). VGA is the standard for PCs, providing a resolution of 720-by-400 pixels, while UXGA is capable of displaying 1600-by-1200 pixel resolution. Digital projectors, flat panel displays and digital CRTs are all compatible with the ADD2 cards. Intel’s 915G-based desktop accepts the ADD2-N (Nonlane-reversed ) for ATX systems or ADD2-R (Lanereversed ) for BTX systems. The 945G-based desktop accepts either card in either system (ATX or BTX). The ADD2-N and ADD2-R cards are available with a standard or low-profile PCIe bracket. ATX and BTX are chassis form-factors introduced by Intel. Both cards mate with MicroCross DVI-D receptacles. Molex offers an extensive line of DVI cable assemblies. Available in custom lengths and configurations, virtually any cable requirement can be achieved. *The PCI Express name and the PCI Express logo are trademarks of the PCI-SIG ADD2-N with a standard bracket (blue PCB), ADD2-R with a low-profile bracket (red PCB) Features and Benefits ADD2-R with a low-profile bracket connecting to a DVI cable I Different versions available: ADD2-N (Non-lanereversed), ADD2-R (Lane-reversed) which support different Intel chassis architectures: ATX, BTX I Standard or low-profile bracket options provide an option according to customer chassis I Serial EEPROM with card configuration information stored automatically loads the ADD2 configuration upon boot-up I Dual monitor support capability is excellent for engineering and design software applications APPLICATIONS I Desktop PC and motherboard ATX systems - Solution Providers - Desktop PC Integrators - Motherboard Manufacturers - Resellers - ATM System Manufacturers - Value Add Resellers - Medical Applications - Retail Markets - Kiosk Applications MicroCross™ ADD2 Channel DVI Card Datasheet 79530 SPECIFICATIONS Reference Information Packaging: Individual antistatic bag and bulk or individual carton box Mates With: - PCI-Express slot in 915G ATX motherboard for ADD2-N - PCI-Express slot in 915G BTX motherboard for ADD2-R - PCI-Express slot in 945G motherboard for ADD2-R or ADD2-N Designed In: Millimeters Connects to Intel 915G-based desktop PC with a PCIExpress slot Uses Silicon Image Sil1364 DVI transmitter chip (The Sil1364 is the market’s leading DVI-compliant transmitter capable of running at the full 5 Gbps single link bandwidth) PCI-Express gold finger connector DVI-D single link output connector Standard height or low-profile PCI bracket ORDERING INFORMATION Order No. 79530-5004 79530-5005 79530-5006 79530-5007 Americas Headquarters Lisle, Illinois 60532 U.S.A. 1-800-78MOLEX amerinfo@molex.com Card ADD2-R ADD2-N ADD2-R ADD2-N Far East North Headquarters Yamato, Kanagawa, Japan 81-462-65-2324 feninfo@molex.com Bracket Standard Standard Low-Profile Low-Profile Far East South Headquarters Jurong, Singapore 65-6-268-6868 fesinfo@molex.com Lane 16X 4X 16X 4X European Headquarters Munich, Germany 49-89-413092-0 eurinfo@molex.com Intel Chassis System BTX ATX BTX ATX Corporate Headquarters 2222 Wellington Ct.
