Topology 2C: CMOS Signals Driven by Intel 82801DBM ICH4-M – LINT0/INTR,
LINT1/NMI, A20M#, IGNNE#, SLP#, SMI#, and STPCLK#
The Topology 2C CMOS LINT0/INTR, LINT1/NMI, A20M#, IGNNE#, SLP#, SMI#, and STPCLK#
signals should implement a point-to-point connection between the Intel 82801DBM ICH4-M and the
processor. The routing guidelines allow both signals to be routed as either micro-strip or strip-lines
using 55
for this topology.
