AMD SC3200 Chipset Register Space, Bridge, GPIO, and LPC Registers Function, General Remarks

32581C Core Logic Module - Bridge, GPIO, and LPC Registers - Function 0

6.4Chipset Register Space

The Chipset Register Space of the Core Logic module is comprised of six separate functions (F0-F5), each with its own register space. Base Address Registers (BARs) in each PCI header register space set the base address for the configuration registers for each respective function. The configuration registers accessed through BARs are I/O or memory mapped. The PCI header registers in all functions are very similar.

1)Function 0 (F0): PCI Header/Bridge Configuration Registers for GPIO, and LPC Support (see Section 6.4.1).

2)Function 1 (F1): PCI Header Registers for SMI Status and ACPI Support (see Section 6.4.2 on page 234).

3)Function 2 (F2): PCI Header/Channel 0 and 1 Configu- ration Registers for IDE Controller Support (see Sec- tion 6.4.3 on page 255).

4)Function 3 (F3): PCI Header Registers for audio sup- port (see Section 6.4.4 on page 261).

5)Function 4 (F4): PCI Header Registers Video Proces- sor Support (see Section 7.3 on page 327).

6)Function 5 (F5): PCI Header Registers for X-Bus Expansion Support (see Section 6.4.5 on page 276).

Function 5 contain six BARs in their standard PCI header locations (i.e., Index 10h, 14h, 18h, 1Ch, 20h, and 24h). In addition there are six mask registers that allow the six BARs to be fully programmable from 4 GB to 16 bytes for memory and from 4 GB to 4 bytes for I/O

General Remarks:

•Reserved bits that are defined as "must be set to 0 or 1" should be written with that value.

•Reserved bits that are not defined as "must be set to 0 or 1" should be written with a value that is read from them.

•"Read to Clear" registers that are wider than one byte should be read in one read operation. If they are read a byte at a time, status bits may be lost, or not cleared.

6.4.1Bridge, GPIO, and LPC Registers - Function 0

The register space designated as Function 0 (F0) is used to configure Bridge features and functionality unique to the Core Logic module. In addition, it configures the PCI por- tion of support hardware for the GPIO and LPC support registers. The bit formats for the PCI Header and Bridge Configuration registers are given in Table 6-29.

Note: The registers at F0 Index 50h-FFh can also be accessed at F1BAR0+I/O Offset 50h-FFh. How- ever, the preferred method is to program these reg- isters through the F0 register space.

Located in the PCI Header registers of F0, are two Base Address Registers (F0BARx) used for pointing to the regis- ter spaces designated for GPIO and LPC configuration (described in Section 6.4.1.1 "GPIO Support Registers" on page 222 and Section 6.4.1.2 "LPC Support Registers" on page 226).

Description

Index 00h-01h		Vendor Identification Register (RO)	Reset Value: 100Bh
Index 02h-03h		Device Identification Register (RO)	Reset Value: 0500h
Index 04h-05h		PCI Command Register (R/W)	Reset Value: 000Fh
15:10	Reserved. Must be set to 0.

9Fast Back-to-Back Enable. This function is not supported when the Core Logic module is a master. It must always be dis- abled (i.e., must be set to 0).

8SERR#. Allow SERR# assertion on detection of special errors.

0:Disable. (Default)

1:Enable.

7Wait Cycle Control (Read Only). This function is not supported in the Core Logic module. It is always disabled (always reads 0, hardwired).

6Parity Error. Allow the Core Logic module to check for parity errors on PCI cycles for which it is a target and to assert PERR# when a parity error is detected.

0:Disable. (Default)

1:Enable.

5VGA Palette Snoop Enable. (Read Only) This function is not supported in the Core Logic module. It is always disabled (always reads 0, hardwired).
