Overview and Specifications
Super I/O
required for interfacing with floppy disk drives. The Super I/O supports two 360 K,
720 K, 1.2 M, 1.44 M or 2.88 M disk drives and data transfer rates of 250 Kb/s, 500
Kb/s, or 1 Mb/s.
It also provides two high-speed, 16550 compatible serial communication ports
(UARTs). Each UART includes a 16-byte send/receive FIFO, a programmable baud
rate generator, complete modem control capability, and a processor interrupt system.
Both UARTs provide legacy speed with baud rate of up to 115.2 Kbps as well as an
advanced speed with baud rates of 250 K, 500 K, or 1 Mb/s, which support higher
speed modems.
The Super I/O provides functions that comply with ACPI (Advanced Configuration
and Power Interface), which includes support of legacy and ACPI power manage-
ment through a SMI or SCI function pin. It also features auto power management to
reduce power consumption.
