Core Logic Module

The Core Logic module is an enhanced PCI-to-Sub-ISA
bridge (South Bridge), this module is ACPI-compliant, and
provides AT/Sub-ISA functionality. The Core Logic module
also contains state-of-the-art power management. Two bus
mastering IDE controllers are included for support of up to
four ATA-compliant devices. A three-port Universal Serial
Bus (USB) provides high speed, and Plug & Play expan-
sion for a variety of new consumer peripheral devices.

Feature List

Internal Fast-PCI Interface

The internal Fast-PCI bus interface is used to connect the
Core Logic and GX1 modules of the SC2200. This inter-
face includes the following features:

• PCI protocol for transfers on Fast-PCI bus

• Up to 66 MHz operation

• Subtractive decode handled internally in conjunction

with external PCI bus

Bus Mastering IDE Controllers

• Two controllers with support for up to four IDE devices

• Independent timing for master and slave devices for both

channels

• PCI bus master burst reads and writes

• Multiword DMA support

• Programmed I/O (PIO) Modes 0-4 support

Universal Serial Bus

• Three independent USB interfaces

• Open Host Controller Interface (OpenHCI) specification

compliant

PCI Interface

• PCI 2.1 compliant

• PCI master for AC97 and IDE controllers

• Subtractive agent for unclaimed transactions

• Supports PCI initiator-to-Sub-ISA cycle translations

• PCI-to-Sub-ISA interrupt mapper/translator

• External PCI bus

— Devices internal to the Core Logic module (IDE,

Audio, USB, Sub-ISA, etc.) cannot master to memory
through the external PCI bus.

— Legacy DMA is not supported to memory located on

external PCI bus.

— The Core Logic module does not transfer subtrac-

tively decoded I/O cycles originating from the
external PCI bus.

AT Compatibility

• 8259A-equivalent interrupt controllers

• 8254-equivalent timer

• 8237-equivalent DMA controllers

• Port A, B, and NMI logic

• Positive decode for AT I/O space

Sub-ISA Interface

• Boot ROM chip select

• Extended ROM to 16 MB

• Two general-purpose chip selects

• NAND Flash support

• M-Systems DiskOnChip support

• Is not the subtractive decode agent

Power Management

• Automated CPU 0V Suspend modulation

• I/O Traps and Idle Timers for peripheral power manage-

ment

• Software SMI and Stop Clock for APM support

• ACPI-compliant timer and register set

• Up to 22 GPIOs of which all can generate Power

Management Interrupts (PMEs)

• Three Dedicated GPWIOs powered by V

SBL

and V

SB

• Shadow register support for legacy controllers for 0V
