2.8.3.1 Super I/O LPC Interface

The LPC interface on the Super I/O complies with the Intel

®

Low Pin Count Specification

Rev. 1.0. The LPC interface supports both LDRQ# and SERIRQ protocols as well as PCI

PME# interfaces.

2.8.3.2 Super I/O 16C550 UARTs

The onboard Super I/O has two integrated 16C550 UARTs that can support the following:

Two standard serial ports (COM1 and COM2)

IrDa 1.0 and ASKIR protocols

Another two chipsets connected to the LPC bus provided connectivity to another two serial

port connectors (COM3 and COM4).

2.8.3.3 Super I/O Enhanced Hardware Monitor

The Super I/O Enhanced Hardware Monitor monitors three thermal inputs, VBAT

internally, and eight voltage monitor inputs. These hardware parameters are reported in

the BIOS and can be read from the BIOS Hardware Health Configuration menu.

2.8.3.4 Super I/O Fan Speed Controller

The Super I/O fan speed controller enables the system to monitor the speed of the fan.

One of the pins on the fan connector is reserved for fan speed detection and interfaced to

the fan speed controller on the Super I/O. The fan speed is then reported in the BIOS.

2.8.3.5 Super I/O GPIO Ports

The Super I/O has 38 programmable GPIO pins of which 8 are implemented on the

KINO-9652. The GPIO connector has 8 programmable bits, 4-bit input and 4-bit output.

2.8.3.6 Super I/O Infrared

The Super I/O has dedicated infrared (IrDA) pins that are interfaced to an IrDA connector.

The IrDA connector is compatible with the following standards:
