16 | ❒ Modifiable addresses that are referenced by a |
(GPIO) | mable register. |
| ❒ Programmable direction for each signal (input or output). |
| ❒ Programmable drive type for each output pin |
| |
| ❒ Programmable option for internal |
| pin. |
| ❒ A |
|
|
Clock source options | ❒ Source is a 32.768 kHz crystal (an internal frequency multiplier |
| generates all the required internal frequencies). |
| ❒ Source may be either a 48 MHz or 24 MHz clock input signal. |
|
|
General features | ❒ All accesses to the Super I/O chip activates a Zero Wait State |
| (ZWS) signal, except for accesses to the Enhanced Parallel Port |
| (EPP) and to configuration registers. |
| ❒ Accesses to all configuration registers is through an Index and a |
| Data register, which can be relocated within the ISA I/O address |
| space. |

Serial/Parallel Ports
The Super I/O chip supports two serial ports and one bidirectional parallel port. The serial ports are high speed UARTs with
The parallel port can operate in four modes:
•Standard mode (PC/XT, PC/AT, and PS/2 compatible)
•Bidirectional mode (PC/XT, PC/AT, and PS/2 compatible)
•Enhanced mode (Enhanced Parallel Port or EPP compatible)
•High speed mode (MS/HP Extended Capabilities Port or ECP compatible).
It can be programmed as LPT1 (378h, IRQ7), LPT2 (278h, IRQ5), or disabled.
