IDE Controller Registers (D31:F1)
Bit
Description
17:16
SIG_MODE — R/W. These bits are used to control mode of the IDE signal pins for
mobile/Ultra Mobile swap bay support.
If the PRS bit (Chipset Config Registers:Offset 3414h:bit 1) is 1, the reset states of
bits 17:16 will be 01 (tri-state) instead of 00 (normal).
00 = Normal (Enabled)
01 = Tri-state (Disabled)
10 = Drive low (Disabled)
11 = Reserved
15:14
No Operation (NOP) — R/W. These bits are read/write for legacy software
compatibility, but have no functionality in the ICH7.
13
(Desktop
and
Mobile
Only)
Fast Primary Drive 1 Base Clock (FAST_PCB1) — R/W. This bit is used in
conjunction with the PCT1 bits to enable/disable Ultra ATA/100 timings for the
Primary Slave drive.
0 = Disable Ultra ATA/100 timing for the Primary Slave drive.
1 = Enable Ultra ATA/100 timing for the Primary Slave drive (overrides bit 1 in this
register).
13
(Ultra
Mobile
Only)
Reserved
Fast Primary Drive 0 Base Clock (FAST_PCB0) — R/W. This bit is used in
conjunction with the PCT0 bits to enable/disable Ultra ATA/100 timings for the
Primary Master drive.
12
0 = Disable Ultra ATA/100 timing for the Primary Master drive.
1 = Enable Ultra ATA/100 timing for the Primary Master drive (overrides bit 0 in this
register).
11:8 Reserved
7
No Operation (NOP) — R/W. These bits are read/write for legacy software
compatibility, but have no functionality in the ICH7.
6
No Operation (NOP) — R/W. These bits are read/write for legacy software
compatibility, but have no functionality in the ICH7.
Primary Slave Channel Cable Reporting — R/W. BIOS should program this bit to
tell the IDE driver which cable is plugged into the channel.
5
0 = 40 conductor cable is present.
1 = 80 conductor cable is present.
4
Primary Master Channel Cable Reporting — R/W. Same description as bit 5
3:2
No Operation (NOP) — R/W. These bits are read/write for legacy software
compatibility, but have no functionality in the ICH7.
1
(Desktop
and
Mobile
Only)
Primary Drive 1 Base Clock (PCB1) — R/W.
0 = 33 MHz base clock for Ultra ATA timings.
1 = 66 MHz base clock for Ultra ATA timings
1
(Ultra
Mobile
Only)
Reserved
Primary Drive 0 Base Clock (PCB0) — R/W.
0
0 = 33 MHz base clock for Ultra ATA timings.
1 = 66 MHz base clock for Ultra ATA timings
