    GPI9I
    BATTERY LOW. Indicates that battery power is low. PIIX4 can be programmed
    to prevent a resume operation when the BATLOW# signal is asserted. If the
    Battery Low function is not needed, this pin can be used as a general-purpose
    input.CPU_STP#/
    GPO17O
    CPU CLOCK STOP. Active low control signal to the clock generator used to
    disable the CPU clock outputs. If this function is not needed, then this signal can
    be used as a general-purpose output.  For values During Reset, After Reset, and
    During POS, see the Suspend/Resume and Resume Control Signaling section.EXTSMI#I/OD
    EXTERNAL SYSTEM MANAGEMENT INTERRUPT. EXTSMI# is a falling edge
    triggered input to PIIX4 indicating that an external device is requesting the
    system to enter SMM mode. When enabled, a falling edge on EXTSMI# results
    in the assertion of the SMI# signal to the CPU. EXTSMI# is an asynchronous
    input to PIIX4.  However, when the setup and hold times are met, it is only
    required to be asserted for one PCICLK. Once negated EXTSMI# must remain
    negated for at least four PCICLKs to allow the edge detect logic to reset.
    EXTSMI# is asserted by PIIX4 in response to SMI# being activated within the
    Serial IRQ function. An external pull-up should be placed on this signal.LID/
    GPI10I
    LID INPUT. This signal can be used to monitor the opening and closing of the
    display lid of a notebook computer. It can be used to detect both low to high
    transition or a high to low transition and these transitions will generate an SMI#
    if enabled. This input contains logic to perform a 16-ms debounce of the input
    signal. If the LID function is not needed, this pin can be used as a general-
    purpose input.PCIREQ[A:D]#I
    PCI REQUEST. Power Management input signals used to monitor PCI Master
    Requests for use of the PCI bus. They are connected to the corresponding
    REQ[0:3]# signals on the Host Bridge.PCI_STP#/
    GPO18O
    PCI CLOCK STOP. Active low control signal to the clock generator used to
    disable the PCI clock outputs. The PIIX4 free running PCICLK input must remain
    on. If this function is not needed, this pin can be used as a general-purpose
    output.  For values During Reset, After Reset, and During POS, see the
    Suspend/Resume and Resume Control Signaling section.PWRBTN#I
    POWER BUTTON. Input used by power management logic to monitor external
    system events, most typically a system on/off button or switch. This input
    contains logic to perform a 16-ms debounce of the input signal.RI#
    GPI12I
    RING INDICATE. Input used by power management logic to monitor external
    system events, most typically used for wake up from a modem. If this function is
    not needed, then this signal can be individually used as a general-purpose input.RSMRST#I
    RESUME RESET. This signal resets the internal Suspend Well power plane
    logic and portions of the RTC well logic.

    GPO15O
    SUSPEND PLANE B CONTROL. Control signal asserted during power
    management suspend states. SUSB# is primarily used to control the secondary
    power plane. This signal is asserted during STR and STD suspend states. If the
    power plane control is not needed, this pin can be used as a general-purpose
    output.
    During Reset: Low After Reset: High During POS: High/GPOSUSC#/
    GPO16O
    SUSPEND PLANE C CONTROL. Control signal asserted during power
    management suspend states, primarily used to control the tertiary power plane.
    It is asserted only during STD suspend state. If the power plane control is not
    needed, this pin can be used as a general-purpose output.
    During Reset: Low After Reset: High During POS: High/GPOSUS_STAT1#/
    GPO20O
    SUSPEND STATUS 1. This signal is typically connected to the Host-to-PCI
    bridge and is used to provide information on host clock status. SUS_STAST1# is
    asserted when the system may stop the host clock, such as Stop Clock or during
    POS, STR, and STD suspend states. If this function is not needed, this pin can
    be used as a general-purpose output.
    During Reset: Low After Reset: High During POS: Low/GPOSUS_STAT2#/
    GPO21O
    SUSPEND STATUS 2. This signal will typically connect to other system
    peripherals and is used to provide information on system suspend state. It is
    asserted during POS, STR, and STD suspend states. If this function is not
    needed, this pin can be used as a general-purpose output.
    During Reset: Low After Reset: High During POS: Low/GPOTHRM#/
    GPI8I
    THERMAL DETECT. Active low signal generated by external hardware to start
    the Hardware Clock Throttling mode. If enabled, the external hardware can force
    the system to enter into Hardware Clock Throttle mode by asserting THRM#.
    This causes PIIX4 to cycle STPCLK# at a preset programmable rate. If this
    function is not needed, this pin can be used as a general-purpose input.ZZ/
    GPO19O
    LOW-POWER MODE FOR L2 CACHE SRAM. This signal is used to power
    down a cache’s data SRAMs when the clock logic places the CPU into the Stop
    Clock.  If this function is not needed, this pin can be used as a general-purpose
    output.

    							Major Chips Description2-25Table 2-282371AB Pin DescriptionsNameTypeDescriptionGENERAL PURPOSE INPUT AND OUTPUT SIGNALSSome of the General Purpose Input and Output signals are multiplexed with other PIIX4 signals. The usage
    is determined by the system configuration.  The default pin usage is shown in Table 1 and Table 2. The
    configuration can be selected via the General Configuration register and X-Bus Chip Select register.GPI[21:0]IGENERAL PURPOSE INPUTS. These input signals can be monitored via the
    GPIREG register located in Function 3 (Power Management) System IO Space
    at address PMBase+30h. See Table 1 for details.GPO[30:0]OGENERAL PURPOSE OUTPUTS. These output signals can be controlled via the
    GPIREG register located in Function 3 (Power Management) System IO Space
    at address PMBase+34h.
    If a GPO pin is not multiplexed with another signal or defaults to GPO, then its
    state after reset is the reset condition of the GPOREG register. If the GPO
    defaults to another signal, then it defaults to that signal’s state after reset.  The
    GPO pins that default to GPO remain stable after reset. The others may toggle
    due to system boot or power control sequencing after reset prior to their being
    programmed as GPOs.  The GPO8 signal is driven low upon removal of power
    from the PIIX4 core power plane.  All other GPO signals are invalid (buffers
    powered off).GPI SIGNALSSignalNameMultiplexedWithDefaultControl Registerand Bit (PCIFunction 1)NotesGPI0IOCHK#GPIGENCFG

    							Major Chips Description2-27Table 2-282371AB Pin Descriptions (continued)NameTypeDescriptionCONFIG1ICONFIGURATION SELECT 1. This input signal is used to select the type of
    microprocessor being used in the system. If CONFIG1=0, the system contains
    a Pentium microprocessor. If CONFIG1=1, the system contains a Pentium II
    microprocessor. It is used to control the polarity of INIT and CPURST signals.CONFIG2ICONFIGURATION SELECT 2. This input signal is used to select the positive or
    subtractive decode of FFFF0000h–FFFFFFFFh memory address range (top
    64 Kbytes).  If CONFIG[2]=0, the PIIX4 will positively decode this range. If
    CONFIG[2]=1, the PIIX4 will decode this range with subtractive decode
    timings only. The input value of this pin must be static and may not
    dynamically change during system operations.PWROKIPOWER OK. When asserted, PWROK is an indication to PIIX4 that power and
    PCICLK have been stable for at least 1 ms. PWROK can be driven
    asynchronously. When PWROK is negated, PIIX4 asserts CPURST,
    PCIRST# and RSTDRV. When PWROK driven active (high), PIIX4 negates
    CPURST, PCIRST#, and RSTDRV.SPKROSPEAKER. The SPKR signal is the output of counter timer 2 and is internally
    “ANDed” with Port 061h bit 1 to provide the Speaker Data Enable. This signal
    drives an external speaker driver device, which in turn drives the ISA system
    speaker.

    PIIX4 core and IO periphery and must be tied to 3.3V.VCC (RTC)V
    RTC WELL VOLTAGE SUPPLY. This pin is the supply voltage for the RTC
    logic and must be tied to 3.3V.VCC (SUS)V
    SUSPEND WELL VOLTAGE SUPPLY. These pins are the primary voltage
    supply for the PIIX4 suspend logic and IO signals and must be tied to 3.3V.VCC (USB)V
    USB VOLTAGE SUPPLY. This pin is the supply voltage for the USB
    input/output buffers and must be tied to 3.3V.VREFV
    VOLTAGE REFERENCE. This pin is used to provide a 5V reference voltage
    for 5V safe input buffers.  VREF must be tied to 5V in a system requiring 5V
    tolerance. In a 5V tolerant system, this signal must power up before or
    simultaneous to VCC. It must power down after or simultaneous to VCC.  In a
    non-5V tolerant system (3.3V only), this signal can be tied directly to VCC.
    There are then no sequencing requirements.VSSV
    CORE GROUND. These pins are the primary ground for PIIX4.VSS (USB)V
    USB GROUND. This pin is the ground for the USB input/output buffers.
