Hub Interface 2.0 Implementation
The MCH, and P64H2 ballout assignments are optimized to simplify the hub interface routing
between these devices. To allow for greater flexibility in design, a connector can be placed on the
interface to access a HI2.0 agent that resides on an adapter card. The typical card implementation
uses an extension to the 3.3 V PCI-64 connector that provides an additional 70 pins for HI2.0.
Power, JTAG and SMBus signals are taken from the PCI portion of the connector. The remaining
PCI signals are unused. This approach provides the flexibility to allow either a
PCI/PCI-X card or a HI2.0 card, to be populated in the slot.
For the 16-bit Hub Interface, HI[7:0] and HI[20] are associated with PSTRBF and PSTRBS, and
HI[15:8] and HI[21] are associated with PUSTRBF and PUSTRBS. HI[19:16] are common clock
signals; they are sampled using CLK66. The three hub interfaces on the MCH are functionally and
electrically identical. Therefore, these guidelines apply to all three hub interfaces.
