3.3.2CIOB20 Champion I/O Bridge

The Champion I/O Bridge (CIOB) is a 352-pin ball-grid array device and provides an integrated I/O bridge that provides a high-performance data flow path between the IMBus and the 64-bit I/O subsystem. This subsystem supports peer 64-bit PCI segments. Because it has multiple PCI interfaces, the CIOB can provide large and efficient I/O configurations. The CIOB functions as the bridge between the IMBus and the multiple 64-bit PCI I/O segments.

The IMBus interface can support 512 MB/s of data bandwidth in both the upstream and downstream direction simultaneously.

The internal PCI arbiter implements the Least Recently used algorithm to grant access to requesting masters.

3.3.2.1PCI Bus P64-B I/O Subsystem
