LPC ServerI/O for Servers and Workstations
General Description
The National Semiconductor® PC8741x family of LPC Serv-
erI/O devices (“PC8741x”) comprises highly integrated Ad-
vanced I/O products. The PC8741x is targeted for a wide
range of servers and workstations that use the Low Pin Count
(LPC) bus for the host interface and the serial ACCESS.bus
or SMBus® for the embedded controller interface.
The PC8741x features an X-Bus extension for read and write
operations over the X-Bus for both LPC and ACCESS.bus
cycles. Boot Flash and I/O devices can be accessed over this
X-Bus.
Embedded controllers can access the PC8741x and its X-Bus
via the ACCESS.bus or SMBus serial interface when VSB
exists, regardless of the LPC bus state. Some of the
PC8741x logical devices can be disabled, or their pins can be
floated, under control of the VSB-powered serial bus.
The PC8741x provides a VSB-powered high-frequency clock
for on-chip peripherals and for other VSB-powered platform
components.
The PC8741x’s extended wake-up support complements the
chipset’s ACPI controller and the platform embedded control-
lers. The PC8741x can monitor the Power and Sleep buttons
and control the power supply of simple platforms that lack an
embedded controller. The System Wake-Up Control (SWC)
module is powered by VSB and VBAT power supplies. It sup-
ports flexible wake-up and power-off request mechanisms in
any sleep state. It features Main and Standby power-on
elapsed-time counters.
The PC8741x also incorporates a Floppy Disk Controller
(FDC), two serial ports (UARTs), a Keyboard and Mouse
Controller (KBC), a Real-Time Clock (RTC), a fully compliant
IEEE 1284 Parallel Port, General-Purpose Input/Output
(GPIO) for a total of 51 ports and an Interrupt Serializer for
Parallel IRQs.
