9.2. PCI
The Intel 82801DBM ICH4-M provides a PCI Bus interface that is compliant with the
PCI Local Bus
Specification Revision 2.2
. The implementation is optimized for high performance data streaming when
the ICH4-M is acting as either the target or the initiator in the PCI bus.
The ICH4-M supports six PCI Bus masters (excluding the ICH4-M), by providing six REQ#/GNT#
pairs. In addition, the ICH4-M supports two PC/PCI REQ#/GNT# pairs, one of which is multiplexed
with a PCI REQ#/GNT# pair.

AC’97
The Intel 82801DBM ICH4-M implements an AC’97 2.1, 2.2, and 2.3 compliant digital controller.
Please contact your codec IHV (Independent Hardware Vendor) for information on 2.2 compliant
products. The AC’97 2.2 specification is on the Intel website:
http://developer.intel.com/ial/scalableplatforms/audio/index.htm - 97spec/
The AC-link is a bi-directional, serial PCM digital stream. It handles multiple input and output data
streams, as well as control register accesses, employing a time division multiplexed (TDM) scheme. The
AC-link architecture provides for data transfer through individual frames transmitted in a serial fashion.
Each frame is divided into 12 outgoing and 12 incoming data streams, or slots. The architecture of the
ICH4-M AC-link allows a maximum of three codecs to be connected. Figure 100 shows a three-codec
topology of the AC-link for the ICH4-M.
