4.8.2 82801 ICH GENERAL PURPOSE FUNCTIONS

The 82801 ICH2 component includes a number of single and multi-purpose pins available as general-purpose input/output (GPIO) ports. The GPIO ports are configured (enabled/disabled) during POST by BIOS through the PCI configuration registers of the ICH’s LPC I/F Bridge (82801, function 0). The GPIO ports are controlled through 64 bytes of I/O space that is mapped during POST.

Table 4-15 lists the utilization of the ICH’s GPIO ports in the desktop and minitower systems.
