Here's an example with an ECS GeForce 6100SM-M v. 1.0 motherboard:

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3397/...b349938d_o.jpg


snip

I don't have an nForce /4xx series board available to check
it, but checking an old A7N8X board that uses a Silicon
Image SATA controller, it has the SATA data pins coupled
directly to the chip inputs with a 2200pF ceramic chip
capacitor in series.

The picture linked above is a little high in contrast so
it's hard to tell but might those empty spots be
corresponding to capacitors on the adjacent used SATA spots?
Further, if you can trace these data lines to the chipset,
are there unused surface mount pads adjacent to it?


I must be blind, upon looking at the picture again obviously
what I was thinking of is supposed to be capacitors as
marked with the C(nnn) silkscreening but now I wonder if you
were looking at the resistor, R(nn) silkscreened positions
above the SATA port in the pictures. They don't seem to be
for SATA?


Ever thought about tracing the local circuitry with a DVM? D'OH!

Actually, I did trace the circuit and also reported what I
measured in a separate post, but on a board I have that is
not the same make and model as his, and if you are familiar
with the extreme economizing ECS often does on their boards,
you would then realize that what is normal is not always to
be taken for granted when ECS is involved.

However, taking measurements with a DVM is a bit less simple
than that in many instances since the parts are still
in-circuit, potentially still in parallel or series with
other parts unless one starts desoldering each one or can
read and decipher the markings with a magnifying glass.

However, on my other post where I listed capacitance values
I am fairly confident there was not need as one end of the
circuit was open at the SATA connector itself. This is
where working with multi-layer boards becomes more complex,
tracing a dense circuit enough to follow it within a
reasonable amount of time, not merely soldering a connector
or SMD cap on the board.


Especially useful at the unpopulated areas for schematesizing the work
in progress. Pretty much leaves out all doubt.

A schematic leaves no doubt... if we can assume it was
followed. Otherwise there are several hints but the first
step is the one not so hard to do, put the port on the board
after populating the missing cap locations with parts
mirroring those on the other implemented ports.

If you are 86 then your prior threats of violence are funny

However, we are in a unique situation with modern
electronics, you were not working with multilayer surface

your life so you might as well cut your age almost in half
when trying to claim experience in this topic.

Come to think of it, there was very little that had more
than 2 layers before '80, so if that is where your supposed
experience comes from, suddenly it all starts to make sense.

Pick up a soldering iron and see what you can do, you are
not too old to learn new tricks (if you pull your head out
of your ass long enough to actually try). In China people
walk in off the streets and do more complex soldering after
a few weeks training.

Doesn't matter if the chipset has it if the BIOS doesn't dumbass.

How little you know about modular bios.

Find a different board with the same set of chips and you
don't even have to use the same bios! There are also tools
to reenable hidden features. They do not write a custom
bios for every board that has only minor changes, they just
add or subtract modules and hide features.

What you are failing to grasp is why the OP suspected the

already seen and done such things in the past.

DimBulb is certainly AlwaysWrong, but the above is simply bull****.
Perhaps in your little corner of the world you were still using
phenolic substrates too but others had moved on long before. We were
using upwards of a hundred layers (96, IIRC) on system backplanes and
easily eight layers (4P-4S) on plug-in cards well before '80 (the
latter were old hat when I started in '74). I haven't done anyting as

IBM mainframes. Our standard boards were 10 layer PWB + wirewrap
overflow and customization in the '60s. The plug-in cards
(nominally 18 per board) were usually 8 layer. Four were needed to
power the ECL. In the late '70s things shifted to 100 (then 121)
chip MCMs on huge boards (~3'x3', IIRC). These pretty much went
away with the ECL processors. CMOS packed more into the chips
without increasing the board wiring density much. The number of
layers on the MCM boards was dictated by timing and impedance
control required as much as density.

Look, you dopey, retarded ****head... There are IC chips in the
military that you have no clue about, and there are assemblies as well.

An IC chip is not a mainboard. Did I write that nothing man
has ever built had 100 or more layers? No. It seems both
of us should have been more clear on what we meant.

You *DID* say that 2-layers was all there was before 1980, which
shows your absolute ignorance on the subject.

We had been talking about mainboards. Obviously even the
CPUs themselves had more than that.


2-layer boards may
have been the norm for consumer electronics (hell, some VCRs are
only one now) but there is obviously a big world out there you have
no clue about. ...and apparently want to keep it that way.


We weren't talking about a big world, we already had a
context for the topic, or do we really have to backtrack and
restate every little thing in a topic without it being in
context? If so, where exactly does that end?

We were talking about PCBs. Define "CPU" (we clearly weren't
talking about chips).

When you admit that you leaped *way* beyond your knowledge.

Just out of curiosity, after oh maybe your 3000th troll, did you think
anyone would take your comments seriously? That's not really a question.

And yet, after 3,001 trolls, you continue to feed it, bypassing my troll
filter?

Go away.

If it bothers you that much, I *permit* you to stop
reading... though this topic is like beating a dead horse so
you'll get your wish either way.
