3 AlphaPC 164LX Jumper Configuration The AlphaPC 164LX motherboard has two groups of jumpers located at J27 and J28, as shown in Figure 2–1. These jumpers set the hardware configuration and boot options. Figure 3–1 shows these jumper configurations. 3.1 CPU Speed Selection The clock synthesizer at location U47 makes it possible to change the frequency of the microprocessor’s system clock output without having to change the clock crystal. Simply set the system clock divisor jumpers to adjus
