Interrupts

The following table shows the logical interrupt mapping of interrupt sources on the system board.

Interrupt

Description (active-low signals have an “_L” symbol following them)

INTR

Processor interrupt.

NMI

NMI from DISMIC to processor.

IRQ0/MIRQ0

System board interrupt request 0 connected to input 2 of the I/O Apic. (For proper

 

operation, the BIOS must set the IRQ0 enable bit in PIIX3 register 70h during

 

initialization.)

IRQ1

RTC.

IRQ3

Serial port A or B interrupt from 87307VUL device, user configurable.

IRQ4

Serial port A or B interrupt from 87307VUL device, user configurable.

IRQ5

Parallel port.

IRQ6

Floppy diskette.

IRQ7

Parallel port.

IRQ8_L

 

IRQ9

 

IRQ10

 

IRQ11

 

IRQ12

Keyboard/mouse interrupt from 87307VUL.

IRQ14

Compatibility IDE interrupt from primary IDE devices 0 and 1.

IRQ15

 

IDE_IRQ

Tide to IRQ14; hard wired from PIIX3.

The following signals will be rerouted to the above interrupts:

PCI_INTA_L

PCI Interrupt signal A from PIIX3. Wired to PCI-0 slot 1 INTA_L, PCI-0 slot 2 INTD_L,

 

PCI-0 slot 3 INTC_L, PCI-0 slot 4 INTB_L, PCI-1 slot 1 INTA_L, and PCI-1 slot 2

 

INTD_L.

PCI_INTB_L

PCI Interrupt signal B from PIIX3. Wired to PCI-0 slot 1 INTB_L, PCI-0 slot 2 INTA_L,

 

PCI-0 slot 3 INTD_L, PCI-0 slot 4 INTC_L, PCI-1 slot 1 INTB_L, and PCI-1 slot 2

 

INTA_L. This interrupt is also used by the SCSI controller.

PCI_INTC_L

PCI Interrupt signal C from PIIX3. Wired to PCI-0 slot 1 INTC_L, PCI-0 slot 2 INTB_L,

 

PCI-0 slot 3 INTA_L, PCI-0 slot 4 INTD_L, PCI-1 slot 1 INTC_L, and PCI-1 slot 2

 

INTB_L. This interrupt is also used by the Network controller.

PCI_INTD_L

PCI Interrupt signal D from PIIX3. Wired to PCI-0 slot 1 INTD_L, PCI-0 slot 2 INTC_L,

 

PCI-0 slot 3 INTB_L, PCI-0 slot 4 INTA_L, PCI-1 slot 1 INTD_L, PCI-1 slot 2 INTC_L.

SMI_L

System Management Interrupt. General-purpose error indicator from a control PAL that

 

provides an SMI_L from nontraditional error sources (PERR_L, SERR_L, and others).
