Page 48: The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801Aa)
2 System Board The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801AA) The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801AA) The ICH, is encapsulated in a 241-pin Ball Grid Array (BGA) package and is located on the system board just underneath the Memory Expansion Card Connector. It provides the interface between the PCI bridge (PCI Rev. 2.2 compliant with support for 32-bit 33 MHz PCI operations), PCI-to-LPC (Low Pin Count) bridge, IDE controller, USB controller, SMBus controller and AC’97 controller.
Page 49 2 System Board The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801AA) The following table shows the available ICH features. Feature Feature • Multi-function PCI Bus Interface: • Enhanced DMA Controller: PCI at 32-bit 33 MHz. Two 82C37 DMA controllers. PCI Rev 2.2 Specification. PCI DMA with 2 PC/PCI Channels in pairs.
Page 50 2 System Board The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801AA) ICH Architecture The ICH interface architecture ensures that the I/O subsystems, both PCI and the integrated input/output features (for example: IDE, AC’97 and USB) receive the adequate bandwidths. To achieve this, by placing the I/O bridge directly on the ICH interface, and no longer on the PCI bus, the ICH architecture ensures that both the input/output functions integrated into the ICH and the PCI peripherals obtain the bandwidth necessary for peak performance.

The hardware features of the FWH include: a Random Number Generator (RNG), five General Purpose Inputs (GPI), register-based block locking and hardware-based locking.
Page 63 2 System Board FirmWare Hub (82802AA) The FWH includes two hardware interfaces: FirmWare Hub interface. • Address/Address Multiplexed (A/A Mux) interface. • The IC (Interface Configuration) pin on the FWH provides the control between these interfaces. The interface mode needs to be selected prior to power-up or before return from reset (RST# or INIT# low to high transition).
Page 64: Host Bus
2 System Board Host Bus Host Bus The Host bus of the Pentium III processors, also referred to as the FSB (Front Side Bus), is implemented in the AGTL (Assisted Gunning Transceiver Logic)+ technology. This technology features open-drain signal drivers that are pulled-up to 1.5 V through resistors at bus extremities; these resistors also act as bus terminators, and are integrated in the processor.
Page 65: Intel Pentium Iii Processor
2 System Board Host Bus accept another request. The MCH, as target device, then requests the bus again when it is ready to respond, and sends the requested data packet. Up to six transactions are allowed to be outstanding at any given time. For the Host bus to run at 133 MHz while respecting the specified signal and timings, a distributed mechanism is used on each AGTL+ signal.
Page 66: Optional Second Processor
2 System Board Host Bus Bus Frequencies There is a 14.318 MHz crystal oscillator on the system board. This frequency is multiplied to 133 MHz by a phase-locked loop. This is further scaled by an internal clock multiplier within the processor. The bus frequency and the processor voltage are set automatically.
Page 67: Cache Memory
2 System Board Host Bus The “mono-processing” mode has been implemented in order to support operating systems that rely on the “legacy” interrupt controller 82C59 and are not aware of I/O APIC controller operation. Refer to page 117 further details. Cache Memory There can be two integrated circuits sealed within a single Pentium III package.

Page 95 3 Interface Cards SCSI Adapter Cards Default Field Description Settings SCSI Parity Indicates whether SCSI parity is enabled for an adapter. When disabled, it is also necessary to disable disconnects for all devices, as parity checking for the reselection phase is not disabled. If a non-parity generating device disconnects, its operation will never complete because the reselection fails due to parity error.
Page 96 3 Interface Cards SCSI Adapter Cards Field Default Settings Description MT/Sec Indicates the maximum synchronous data transfer rate in megatransfers per second. Data Width Maximum data width in bits. Scan ID Indicates whether to scan for this SCSI identifier at boot time. Utilizing this setting allows you to ignore a device.
