Functional Description
5.21.4 Interrupts / SMI#
The ICH6 SMBus controller uses PIRQB# as its interrupt pin. However, the system can
alternatively be set up to generate SMI# instead of an interrupt, by setting the SMBus_SMI_EN bit
(Device 31:Function 0:Offset 40h:bit 1).
Table 5-49 and Table 5-50 specify how the various enable bits in the SMBus function control the
generation of the interrupt, Host and Slave SMI, and Wake internal signals. The rows in the tables
are additive, which means that if more than one row is true for a particular scenario then the Results
for all of the activated rows will occur.
