List of Registers

Table 116. Primary SERR# Disable Register

This register may be preloaded by serial ROM or programmed by the local processor before host configuration. This register controls the ability of the 21555 to assert p_serr_l for a particular condition. When the bit is a 0, the assertion of p_serr_l is not masked for this event.

When the bit is a 1, the assertion of p_serr_l is masked for this event.
