Chipset Overview
The 440BX chipset, developed by Intel, is the ultimate processor platform tar-
geted for 3D graphics and multimedia applications. Along with System-to-PCI
bridge integrated with optimized DRAM controller and data path, the chipset
introduces the Accelerated Graphics Port (AGP) interface. AGP is a high per-
formance, component level interconnect targeted at 3D applications and is based
on a set of performance enhancements to PCI. The I/O subsystem portion of the
440BX platform is based on the PIIX4E, a highly integrated version of Intel's PCI-
to-ISA bridge family.
The PCI/AGP and system bus interface controller (82443BX) supports up to two
Pentium II processors. It provides an optimized 72-bit DRAM interface (64-bit
data plus ECC). This interface supports 3.3V DRAM technologies. The control-
ler provides the interface to a PCI bus operating at 33 MHz. This interface
implementation is compliant with the PCI Rev 2.1 Specification. The AGP inter-
face is based on the AGP Specification Rev 1.0. It can support up to 133 MHz
(532 MB/s) data transfer rates.
