Description
PLTRST#
Platform Reset: The ICH6 asserts PLTRST# to reset devices on the platform (e.g.,
SIO, FWH, LAN, (G)MCH, IDE, TPM, etc.). The ICH6 asserts PLTRST# during
power-up and when S/W initiates a hard reset sequence through the Reset Control
register (I/O Register CF9h). The ICH6 drives PLTRST# inactive a minimum of 1 ms
O after both PWROK and VRMPWRGD are driven high. The ICH6 drives PLTRST#
active a minimum of 1 ms when initiated through the Reset Control register (I/O
Register CF9h).
THRM#
THRMTRIP#
SLP_S3#
SLP_S4#
SLP_S5#
PWROK
NOTE: PLTRST# is in the VccSus3_3 well.
I
Thermal Alarm: Active low signal generated by external hardware to generate an
SMI# or SCI.
Thermal Trip: When low, this signal indicates that a thermal trip from the processor
I occurred, and the ICH6 will immediately transition to a S5 state. The ICH6 will not
wait for the processor stop grant cycle since the processor has overheated.
S3 Sleep Control: SLP_S3# is for power plane control. This signal shuts off power
O to all non-critical systems when in S3 (Suspend To RAM), S4 (Suspend to Disk), or
S5 (Soft Off) states.
S4 Sleep Control: SLP_S4# is for power plane control. This signal shuts power to
all non-critical systems when in the S4 (Suspend to Disk) or S5 (Soft Off) state.
O
NOTE: This pin must be used to control the DRAM power to use the ICH6’s DRAM
power-cycling feature. Refer to Chapter 5.14.11.2 for details.
O
S5 Sleep Control: SLP_S5# is for power plane control. This signal is used to shut
power off to all non-critical systems when in the S5 (Soft Off) states.
Power OK: When asserted, PWROK is an indication to the ICH6 that core power
has been stable for at least 99 ms and PCICLK has been stable for at least 1 mS. An
exception to this rule is if the system is in S3HOT, in which PWROK may or may not
stay asserted even though PCICLK may be inactive. PWROK can be driven
I asynchronously. When PWROK is negated, the ICH6 asserts PLTRST#.
NOTE: PWROK must de-assert for a minimum of three RTC clock periods in order
for the ICH6 to fully reset the power and properly generate the PLTRST#
output
PWRBTN#
Power Button: The Power Button will cause SMI# or SCI to indicate a system
request to go to a sleep state. If the system is already in a sleep state, this signal will
I
cause a wake event. If PWRBTN# is pressed for more than 4 seconds, this will
cause an unconditional transition (power button override) to the S5 state. Override
will occur even if the system is in the S1-S4 states. This signal has an internal pull-
up resistor and has an internal 16 ms de-bounce on the input.
RI#
I
Ring Indicate: This signal is an input from a modem. It can be enabled as a wake
event, and this is preserved across power failures.
System Reset: This pin forces an internal reset after being debounced. The ICH6
SYS_RESET# I will reset immediately if the SMBus is idle; otherwise, it will wait up to 25 ms ± 2 ms
for the SMBus to idle before forcing a reset on the system.
RSMRST#
I Resume Well Reset: This signal is used for resetting the resume power plane logic.
