Reset Type

Description

Front Panel Power Button

De-asserts PS_ON_L to the power supply and causes the system to shut down.

FP_RST_BTN_N

ITP_RST

These signals are connected to the “Sources of Reset” logic inside the PLD. Any
time any one of these signals is transitions LOW, the output of the logic
SYS_ICH_RST asserts the SYS_RST_N to ICH5. Upon which ICH5 asserts
PCI_RST_N back to PLD. Then PLD asserts the RESET# input to NB, PXH and
Intel® IOP332 Storage I/O Processor.

NB_RST

This signal is controlled through the BIOS in ICH5.

8.4 Interrupts

The Intel

®

E8500 Chipset supports both XAPIC and 8259 interrupt delivery mechanisms.

IOxAPIC controllers are located in the PXH, Intel

®

IOP332 Storage I/O Processor, and the ICH5.

The 8259 controller is located in the ICH5. Figure 17 illustrates the interrupt routing in the Intel

®

Server Board Set SE8500HW4.
