Intel S875WP1-E manual Data Storage, Serial ATA SATA, Device IDs IDSEL

Device IDs (IDSEL)

Each device under the PCI hub bridge has its IDSEL signal connected to one bit of AD[31:16], which acts as a chip select on the PCI bus segment in configuration cycles. This determines a unique PCI device ID value for use in configuration cycles. The following table shows each IDSEL value for the PCI bus devices and the corresponding device description.

Table 5. PCI Bus Configuration IDs

IDSEL Value	Device
16	PCI slot 1 (closest to AGP connector)
17	PCI slot 2	(middle slot)
18	PCI slot 3	(closest to left edge of board)
22	ATI Rage XL Video Controller
