LPC/FWH Interface Configuration

Bit

Description

1NMI_EN: This bit enables an SCI to be generated on a NMI event. Upon power up, this bit is set to ‘0’.

0THRM_EN: This is the thermal enable bit. When this bit is set an active level assertion of the THRM# signal (as defined by the THRM_POL bit) will set the THRM_STS bit and generate a power management event (an SCI or SMI). Upon power up, this bit is set to ‘0’.

11.2.7.7General Purpose 1 Status

Address Offset:

16-17h

Attributes:

Read/Write

Default Value:

0000h

Size:

16 bits

When any bit is set in this register, and the corresponding bit is enabled in the General Purpose 1 Enable register, an SCI and a wake event will be generated.

Bit

Description

 

 

15:9

Reserved.

 

 

8:0

GPIO_STS: Each bit corresponds to a single GPIO bit (Ex: Bit 8 refers to GPIO[8]. This bit is set

 

when the data bit in the GPIO data register is set to a ‘1’, and cleared by software writing a ‘1’ to

 

this bit location. Additionally, if the GPIO_EN bit in the General Purpose 1 Enable Register is

 

set, then the setting of this bit will generate an SCI or wake event.

Reserved.

 

 

 

 

8:0

 

GPIO_EN: Each bit corresponds to a single GPIO bit (Ex: Bit 8 refers to GPIO8). When set, the

 

 

setting of the corresponding bit in the General Purpose 1 Status Register will generate an SCI or

 

 

wake event. These bits are not cleared on a CF9 reset.

 

 

 

 

11.2.8SMI Registers

In addition to the ACPI I/O registers, there are some generic registers that are defined for legacy based SMI# logic. These I/O registers are added to the end of the I/O register space defined by the ACPI block. All reserved bits will always return 0 when read, and will have no effect when written.
