AC’97 Controller | This controller, even though available in the ICH, is not used. The HP Kayak |
| PC Workstation uses the dedicated dual chip PCI solution of the CS4280 |
| audio controller and the CS4297 Codec Audio Codec ‘97 (AC’97). |
| Refer to page 54 for information about the CS4280 and CS4297 audio |
| solution. |
QLM K½”½““t | The IDE controller is implemented as part of the ICH chip and has PCI- |
| Master capability. Two independent ATA/66 IDE channels are provided with |
| two connectors per channel. Two IDE devices (one master and one slave) |
| can be connected per channel. In order to guarantee data transfer integrity, |

|
|
| The PIO IDE transfers of up to 14 Mbytes/sec and Bus Master IDE transfer |
| rates of up to 66 Mbytes/sec are supported. The IDE controller integrates |

| It is possible to mix a fast and a slow device, such as a hard disk drive and a |
| |
| device. The BIOS automatically determines the fastest configuration that |
| each device supports. |

Q”t¼”““t | The Interrupt controller is equivalent in function to the two 82C59 interrupt |
| controllers. The two interrupt controllers are cascaded so that 14 external |
| and two internal interrupts are possible. In addition, the ICH supports a |
| serial interrupt scheme and also implements the I/O APIC controller. A table |
| on page 68 shows how the master and slave controllers are connected. |
