**82371AB PCI-TO-ISA / IDE Xcelerator 82371AB (PIIX4) 02/17/97
***Notes:...
***Info:
The 82371AB PCI ISA IDE Xceierator (PIIX4) is a multi-function PCI
device implementing a PCI-to-ISA bridge function, a PCI IDE function,
a Universal serial Bus host/hub function, and an Enhanced Power
Management function. As a PCI-to-ISA bridge, PIIX4 integrates many
common, I/O functions found in ISA-based PC systems-two 82C37 DMA
Controllers, two 82C59 interrupt Controllers, an 82C54 Timer/Counter,
and a Real Time Clock. In addition to compatible transfers, each DMA
channel supports Type F transfers. PIIX4 also contains full support
tor both PC/PCI and Distributed DMA protocols implementing PCI-based
DMA. The interrupt Controller has Edge or Level sensitive programmable
inputs and fully supports the use of an external I/O Advanced
Programmable interrupt Controller (APIC) and Serial interrupts. Chip
select decoding is provided for BIOS, Real Time Clock, Keyboard
Controller, second external microcontroller, as well as two
Programmable Chip Selects. PIIX4 provides full Plug and Play
compatibility. PIIX4 can be configured as a Subtractive Decode bridge
or as a Positive Decode bridge. This allows the use of a subtractive
decode PCI-to-PCI bridge such as the Intel 380FB PCIset which
implements, a PCI/ISA docking station environment.
PIIX4 supports two IDE connectors for up to four IDE devices providing
an interface for IDE hard disks and CD ROMS. Up to four IDE devices
can be supported in Bus Master mode. PIIX4 contains support for
"Ultra DMA/33" synchronous DMA compatible devices.
PIIX4 contains a Universal Serial Bus, (USB) Host Controller that is
Universal Host Controller interface (UHCI) compatible. The Host
Controller's root hub has two programmable USB ports.
PIIX4 supports Enhanced Power Management, including full Clock
Control, Device Management for up to 14 devices, and Suspend and
Resume logic with Power On Suspend, Suspend to RAM or Suspend to Disk,
It fully supports Operating System Directed Power Management via the
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) specification.
PIIX4 integrates both a System Management Bus (SMBus) Host and Slave
interface for serial communication with other devices.
