The SATA controller is part of the ICH8M.

Audio Interface

The Intel® ICH8M supports Intel® High Definition Audio (HDA). This HD audio

configuration supports up to four audio streams (with up to 16 channels

each), 32-bit sample depth, and sample rates up to 192 KHz.

With this configuration you can implement hardware CODECs on your baseboard

for 7.1/5.1 audio systems and SDIF output. The pins for the HD audio are

defined in Section 4.1, Pin-Outs.

WARNING: This feature is only supported with baseboards that have an HD audio

CODEC.

Configuration

The audio controller is in the Intel® ICH8M. The BIOS allocates the required

system resources during configuration.

Serial IRQ

The serial IRQ pin offers a standardized interface to link interrupt request

lines to a single wire.

Configuration

The serial IRQ machine is in “Continuous Mode”.

Graphics Interface

The microETXexpress®-PV-XT uses the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 3150

(Intel® GMA 3150) with a 400 MHz GPU clock. This controller, which is

integrated in the Intel® Atom processor, delivers advanced 3D video

capabilities. The graphics engine supports multiple display types (LVDS, VGA,

DVI-I, HDTV, and CRT), and resolutions up to 2048x1536 VGA mode.

The GMA uses the processor RAM for graphics memory. The pre-allocated memory

is defined through BIOS settings.
