Theerror was introduced accidentally in Version 2.02. The Mini-ATX form factor is 11.2 X8.2"(284mm x208mm; the Mini-ATX form factor referred to in this ATX Specification is Not the same as the microATXform factor, which is described in a separate specificationChanges from Version 2.01 to Version 2.02Section 3. 3. 5--Replaced figures 4 and 5Section 4.2.1--Added new section to define Aux Power Connector; renumbered the subsequent sectionsfigures and tables accordinglySection 4.2.2.3--Replaced Figure 1 1 to better explain the power supply timingSection 4.2.3--Corrected two values in Table 7, Voltage Tolerances:-5VDC and-12VDC should complyto+ 10%0, not +5%. This change was made to match the newly released Intel atX Power Supply designGuide, Version 0.9Section 4.4-Corrected Table 9: the 1394R signal is carried on Pin 4 and Pin 6 is reserved.

Executive SummaryATX was developed as an evolution of the Baby-at form factor and was defined to address four majorareas of improvement: enhanced ease-of-use, better support for current and future 1/O, better support forcurrent and future processor technology, and reduced total system costATX combines the best functionality from the form factors that dominated the computer industry in theearly 1990s: the high integration of LPX and the expandability of Baby-AT. The aTX form factor isessentially a Baby AT motherboard rotated 90 degrees within the chassis enclosure and providing a newmounting configuration for the power supply. The processor is relocated away from the expansion slots,llowing them all to hold full length add-in cards. The longer side of the board is used to host more onboard io. table i summarizes the atx featuresA change to the system form factor is ultimately of little benefit if it does not reduce overall system costATX has achieved cost reduction in a number of waysMaterial cost of cables and add-in cards is reduced because more io can be integrated down onto theboard and because the hard drive and floppy connectors can be better positioned, allowing the use ofshorter cablesAnother benefit of integrated 1O down is the potential for lower EMI emissions with the removal ofserial and parallel cables that can act like antennasManufacturing time and inventory holding costs are reduced bccause the number of cables in thesystem is reducedVideo-playback enhanced graphics and audio, the main hardware building blocks to supportmultimedia, are becoming a standard on many PCs; at the entry level, these features are quicklybecoming a commodity. To reduce cost in a highly dollar-sensitive market segment, it makes sense tomigrate these features down to the motherboard itselfThe ATX specification is written as an open specification for the industry, designed to add value to PCarchitectureTable 1.

For processor voltage regulators that have beendesigned for 12V input, an additional 12v power connector must be added atX power supplies with therequired 12V current and associated connector are designated ATXI2V.

LayoutThe following sections describe the mechanical specification of the ATX form factor motherboardincluding physical size, mounting hole placement, connector placement, and component height constraints3.1 Board sizeA full size atX board is 12 wide by 9.6"deep(305mm x 244mm). This allows many ATX form factorchassis to accept microatX boards as well3.2 Mounting Hole PlacementTable 2. Motherboard Mounting hole locationsFeatureStatus CommentMotherboard mounting holeRequired See Figure 2 for an overview and Figure 3 for exact locations. AlllocationsATX board mounting locations shown should be implemented for fullATX 2. 1 complianceWhere possible, the ATX mounting holes line up with mounting holes used for microATX boards. Threholes have been defined to provide mechanical support along the front edge of the full size atx boardFigure 2 shows the relative outlines of the atX and microaTX boards. This figure uses letter calloutsto show the general location of the mounting holes for the ATX and microATX form factors. Theaccompanying table indicates which holes are required for cach form factorFigure 3 shows the exact location(dimensions)of the mounting holes for ATX boardsMust be usedAll atX board mounting locations listed in the table in Figure 2 should be implemented for chassisassemblies to achieve full ATX 2. I compliance and to provide proper support for the board in these areasThe hole at F in Figure 2(upper right corner of the AtX board) must be implemented in all ATX 2compliant chassis assemblies to accommodate boards requiring this mounting hole. This hole was labeledoptional in the atX 1.I specification. Note that changing this mounting location from optional to requiredmay not accommodate all aTX 1.0-and l I-compliant motherboards. To accommodate thesemotherboards, a removable standoff may be used. All ATX 2. 1-compliant motherboards should implementthis mounting location or allow for a standoff in this area by implementing a component and trace keepoutNo longer usedThe hole at b in Figure 2 was previously required along the rear edge of the board. This location is notrequired for ATX designs. If it is desired to implement a board mount in this area, a removable standoffshould be used to avoid problems with boards that do not use this mounting locationPage 9ATX Specification - Version 2.1NOT TO SCALEREAR of board2”(305mm)6.25 wide rearI/O shield9.6”(244mm)○ACPCIISA/AGPlocations (4 max)9.6”(244mmn)○G●R○sH○KKey, mounting holesNcw for microatXFRONT of boardmicroAtXATXForm factor Mounting holeNoteslocationsATXA,C,F,G,H,J,K,L,M Hole F must be implemented in all ATX 2.1-compliantchassis assemblies; it was optional in the aTX 1.1speciticationmicroATXB.C.FHLMRSHoles r and s are added for microatX form factorHole b was defined in full at formatFigure 2.
