Supported sockets:

• LGA 587

Supported architectures:

• SUN UltraSPARC Sabre
• SUN UltraSPARC Sapphire Red

Note! Some steppings might require updated BIOS/microcode to work properly.
Specific mainboard revisions require specific processor cards in combination with compatible processors to function. As an example you cannot simply use Sabre processors on the Sapphire Red processor cards. The 375-0009 board shipped with the 501-4379 512KB Cache Sabre processor card. The fastest Sabre processor the 375-0009 board supports is the 2MB Cache 501-5222 360Mhz Sabre. The fastest Sapphire Red the board can run with (depends on your boards quality) is the 2MB L2 Cache 501-5149 at 440Mhz. Support for Sapphire Red processors (250nm) requires newer OpenBoot firmware (at least 3.19v4.). For more details refer to this.

Northbridge/MCH: SUN STP2210QFP
Southbridge/ICH/PCH/MCP: SUN SME2411BGA
The Uniprocessor System Controller (STP2210QFP) integrates many functions that are conventionally spread across many other chips on x86 platforms. The Advanced PCI Bridge (SME2411) is used to connected to almost all peripheral functions including SuperI/O, IDE, Ethernet, etc. The mainboard has Support for UPA (Ultra Port Architecture) Graphics cards. These interface directly to the processor bus and provide a point to point link similar to AGP, however it's implementation is more optimized for the system.
