• Supports ACPI defined power states S0, S1, S3 cold, S4 and S5 (SOFF).
• ACPI Power Management Timer.
• SMI# Generation.
• PCI PME#.
DMA Controller
• Two cascaded 8237 DMA Controllers.
• Supports LPC DMA.
Timers Based on 82C54
• System Timer, Refresh Request, Speaker Tone Output.
High Precision Event Timers (HPET)
• Three timer comparators provided.
• One-shot and periodic interrupts supported.
Real-Time Clock with 256-byte Battery-backed CMOS RAM
• Integrated components for the oscillator to reduce problems with incorrect external
selections.
• Lower Power DC/DC Converter implementation.
System TCO Reduction Circuits
