These components can be connected to the ZT 5504 logic ground by installing the ten cuttable traces listed above.
3. Configuration CT38 (D_RSTDRV- to COM Port Driver) Installing CT38 disables the COM port driver during board reset to prevent glitching of the RS- 232 interface as the ZT 5504 comes out of reset. The factory default installs CT36. CT38 Function Default Disable RS-232 driver during board reset.
4. Reset This chapter discusses the reset types and reset sources on the ZT 5504. If necessary, the ZT 5504's board reset characteristics can be tailored to the requirements of a specific system. Reset Types and Sources The ZT 5504's reset types are listed below. The sources for each reset type are detailed in the following topics.
4. Reset Keyboard CTRL-ALT-DEL Simultaneously pressing these keys calls a BIOS function that reboots the system. This method does not work under operating systems that trap calls to this BIOS function. Watchdog Timer (System Register Address 79h) The watchdog timer may be programmed to generate a "CPU Init" if it is not strobed within a given time-out period.
5. System Monitoring and Control The ZT 5504 performs system control and monitoring functions using an Intel Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) ASIC. The BMC has the following features. • IPMB_PWR delivers 5VDC (1A/pin) to the BMC; other required voltages are derived from this.

The ZT 5504's IDE controller provides two IDE channels for interfacing with up to four IDE devices. The IDE controller is incorporated into the Intel PIIX4E (82371EB) device, which uses the Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus to provide exceptional IDE performance. The IDE controller can sustain a maximum transfer rate of 33 Mbps between the IDE drive buffer and the PCI bus.
I/O addresses 170h-177h, 376h and interrupt IRQ15. No memory addresses are used. CompactFlash Carrier Intel provides an optional IDE CompactFlash Carrier (ZT 96080) that can be mounted in the hard drive location on the ZT 5504. This carrier accommodates multiple types of CompactFlash cards, which appear to the system as a hard drive, and are automatically supported by most operating systems.
7. Watchdog Timer This chapter explains the operation of the ZT 5504's watchdog timer. It provides an overview of watchdog operation and features, as well as sample code to help you learn how the watchdog timer works with applications. Watchdog Timer Overview The primary function of the watchdog timer is to monitor the ZT 5504's operation and take corrective action if the software fails to function as programmed.
7. Watchdog Timer Power Up Initialization The watchdog timer's logic is initialized at power up. This ensures that the STAGE1 MONITOR, STAGE2 MONITOR, STAGE1 ENABLE, and STAGE2 ENABLE status and control bits power up to unasserted states (0). This allows an application to determine if the reset was caused by a watchdog timeout or a power up.
7. Watchdog Timer Setting the Terminal Count The terminal count determines how long the watchdog waits for a strobe before resetting the hardware. C code for setting the terminal count might look like the following: #define WD_CSR_IO_ADDRESS 0x79 // IO address of the watchdog #define WD_T_COUNT_MASK 0x07 // Bit mask for terminal count bits.
7. Watchdog Timer Chaining the ISRs Save the original NMI ISR vector so that it can be invoked from the new watchdog NMI ISR. Alter the interrupt vector table so that the NMI ISR vector is overwritten with a vector to the watchdog ISR.
7. Watchdog Timer NMI Handler Because an NMI may originate from a source such as a RAM Error Correction Code (ECC) error, the NMI handler cannot assume that an NMI occurred due to a watchdog timeout. Therefore, the NMI handler must check the watchdog status register before taking watchdog- related emergency action.

CAUTION: External airflow must be provided at all times during operation to avoid damaging the CPU. Intel strongly recommends the use of a fan tray below the card rack to supply the external airflow. The "Thermal Requirements" table below shows the relationship between ambient air temperature, board temperature, and processor core temperature.
Temperature Monitoring Because reliable long-term operation of the ZT 5504 depends on maintaining proper temperature, Intel strongly recommends verifying the operating temperature of the processor module and processor core in the final system configuration. The Pentium III processor incorporates an on-die thermal diode that can be used to monitor the processor's die temperature.
C. System Registers The ZT 5504 provides several system registers to control and monitor a variety of functions. Normally, only the system BIOS uses these registers, but they are documented here for application use as needed. Take care when modifying the contents of these registers, as the system BIOS may be relying on the state of the bits under their control.
C. System Registers Flash Control (78h) I/O Address: Default Value: 0x00 Size: 8 bits Attribute: Note: This register is reset to 00h on init or reset. The BIOS resides in page 000. Description Default Flash Write Protection Controls Write Enable to flash: 0 = Write protects flash.
C. System Registers Watchdog (79h) I/O Address: Default Value: 0x00 Attribute: Description Stage 2 Monitor (Reset Monitor) Monitors the second stage (Reset) timer status. Read Value: 0 = Watchdog has not timed out since power up or since this bit was last set to 0. 1 = Watchdog reset timeout occurred since power up or since bit was last set to 0.
Page 73
C. System Registers Watchdog (79h), continued Description Stage 2 Enable Enables second stage (Reset) activation on timeout. Read Value: 0 = Reset activation on timeout disabled. 1 = Reset activation on timeout enabled. Write Value: 0 = Reset operation of the watchdog is not enabled. When the watchdog times out, Stage 2 Monitor bit is not set to 1 and the Reset output is not asserted.
Page 74
C. System Registers Watchdog (79h), continued Description NMI or INIT Selects between generating an NMI or a CPU INIT. Read Value: 0 = NMI 1 = INIT This bit is set to 0 at reset. Write Value: 0 = NMI is generated when the watchdog times out. 1 = INIT is generated when the watchdog times out.
C. System Registers Event Monitors (E1h) I/O Address: Default Value: 0x00 Size: 8 bits Attribute: Description RESERVED ENUM- This bit displays the value of ENUM- from backplane J1-C25. A logical 0 means that ENUM- is not asserted on the backplane. A logical 1 means that ENUM- is asserted on the backplane.
This bit reads the status of switch SW4-4. A logical 0 means that SW4-4 is open and console redirection is not enabled. A logical 1 means SW4-4 is closed and console redirection is enabled. Refer to the "Console Redirection" chapter in the Intel NetStructure Embedded BIOS Manual before attempting to use this feature.
C. System Registers Geographic Addressing (E4h), continued Geographic Addressing CompactPCI defines several signal additions to the PCI specification. One of these is GA[4..0], used for geographic addressing on the backplane. Geographic addressing uniquely differentiates each board based upon the physical slot into which it was inserted.
