LPC/FWH Interface Configuration

Bit

Description

 

 

7:4

FWH_C8_IDSEL: This dictates the IDSEL of 512 KB of the FWH memory range starting at 4 GB -

 

3.5 MB (FFC80000H) to 4 GB - 3 MB (FFCFFFFFH) as well as register space starting at (4 GB-

 

4MB) - 3.5MB (FF880000h) to (4 GB-4MB) - 3MB (FF8FFFFFh). The enable for this range is

 

controlled through bit 1 of the FWH Decode Enable Register at E3H.

 

 

3:0

FWH_C0_IDSEL: This dictates the IDSEL of 512 KB of the FWH memory range starting at 4 GB -

 

4 MB (FFC00000H) to 4 GB - 3.5 MB (FFC7FFFFH) as well as register space starting at (4 GB-

 

4MB) – 4MB (FF800000h) to (4 GB-4MB) - 3.5MB (FF87FFFFh). The enable for this range is

 

controlled through bit 0 of the FWH Decode Enable Register at E3H.

 

 

11.1.27.3Test Mode Register

Address:FC-FFh

Default Value:00000000h

Attributes:Read/Write

Bit

Description

31:1 Reserved.

0Alternate Access Mode Enable: When set, the part enters alternate access mode. This allows reads to certain write-only registers and writes to certain read-only registers. Read to Port 70h will return the NMI mask value. See Section 10.3 of the RS-IFB (I/O & Firmware Bridge) External Design Specification, Rev 2.0, for more detail.

11.2PCI to LPC I/O Space Registers

11.2.1DMA Registers

The IFB contains DMA circuitry that incorporates the functionality of two 82C37 DMA controllers (DMA1 and DMA2). The DMA registers control the operation of the DMA controllers and are all accessible from the Host CPU via the PCI Bus interface.

11.2.1.1Dcom–Dma Command Register (I/O)

I/O Address:

Channels 0-3–08h; Channels 4-7–0D0h

Default Value:

00h (CPURST or Master Clear)

Attribute:

Write Only

This 8-bit register controls the configuration of the DMA. Note that disabling channels 4-7 also disables channels 0-3, since channels 0-3 are cascaded onto Channel 4.
