PCI/LPC Bridge Description

The extended RAM bank is also accessed using an indexed scheme. I/O address 72h is used as the address pointer and I/O address 73h is used as the data register. Index addresses above 127h are not valid.

15.5.1.1

Register A

 

 

Address Offset:

0Ah

 

Default Value:

NA - This register is not affected by any system reset signal.

 

Attribute:

Read/Write

This register is used for general configuration of the RTC Functions.

Bit(s)

 

 

 

 

 

 

Description

 

 

 

 

7

UPDATE IN PROGRESS (UIP): This bit may be monitored as a status flag. When asserted as a 1,

 

the update is soon to occur or is in progress. If 0, the update cycle will not start for at least 244 µs.

 

The time, calendar, and alarm information in RAM is always available when the UIP bit is 0.

 

 

6:4

Division Chain Select (DVx): These three bits control the divider chain for the oscillator.

3:0

Rate Select Bits (RSx): Selects one of 13 taps of the 15 stage divider chain. The selected tap can

 

generate a periodic interrupt if the PIE bit is set in register B. Otherwise this tap will set the PF flag

 

of register C. If the periodic interrupt is not to be used, these bits should all be set to zero.
