Aside from the processor, the most important chip on the motherboard is the basic input/output system (BIOS) chip. This chip is a special memory chip that contains the BIOS software that tells the processor how to interact with the rest of the hardware in the computer. The BIOS chip is easily identified if you have a non-clone computer (e.g. Compaq, IBM, HP, etc.), this chip will have the name of the manufacturer and usually the word BIOS. For example, the BIOS chip for a Compaq will say something like Compaq BIOS on it. For clones, the chip will usually have a sticker or printing on it from the three major BIOS manufacturers (AMI, Phoenix, and Award). 

Nuvera will design, build, test, and deliver a 15 kilowatt electrical (kWe ) direct current (DC) fuel cell power module that will be specifically designed for stationary power operation using ethanol as a primary fuel. Two PEM fuel cell stacks in parallel will produce 250 amps and 60 volts at rated power. The power module will consist of a fuel processor, carbon monoxide (CO) clean-up, fuel cell, air, fuel, water, and anode exhaust gas management subsystems. A state-of-the-art control system will interface with the power system controller and will control the fuel cell power module under start-up, steady-state, transient, and shutdown operation. Temperature, pressure, and flow sensors will be incorporated in the power module to monitor and control the key system variables under these various operating modes. The power module subsystem will be tested at Nuvera and subsequently be delivered to the Williams Bio-Energy Pekin, Illinois site.
