The ICH2 provides a processor-to-SMBus controller. All access performed to
the SMBus is done through the ICH2 SMBus interface. Typically, the
processor has access to all the devices connected to the SMBus.
Each DIMM socket is connected to the SMBus. The 168-pin DIMM modules
2
include a 256 byte I
information, including the DRAM chips' manufacturer's name, DIMM speed
rating, DIMM type, etc. The second 128 bytes of the Serial EEPROM can be
used to store data online.
Each RIMM socket is connected to the SMBus. The 168-pin RIMM modules
2
include a 256 byte I
information, including the DRAM chips' manufacturer's name, RIMM speed
rating, RIMM type, etc. The second 128 bytes of the Serial EEPROM can be
used to store data online.
The ADM1024 chip is a hardware monitoring sensor dedicated to the
processor temperature. This chip uses the thermal diodes integrated into
each processor cartridge and makes the temperature information available
through the SMBus. It also monitors processor power supply voltages.
This is the non-volatile memory which holds the default values for the CMOS
memory (in the event of battery failure).When installing a new system
board, the Serial EEPROM will have a blank serial number field. This will be
detected automatically by the BIOS, which will then prompt the user for the
serial number which is printed on the identification label on the back of the
PC Workstation.
The computer uses 16KBytes of Serial EEPROM implemented within two
chips. Serial EEPROM is ROM in which one byte at a time can be returned to
its unprogrammed state by the application of appropriate electrical signals.
In effect, it can be made to behave like very slow, non-volatile RAM. It is
used for storing the tatoo string, the serial number, and the parameter
settings for the Setup program as well as MaxiLife firmware.
The LM75 temperature sensor and alarm are located on the system board.
The sensor is used to measure the temperature in various areas of the
system board. This information is used to regulate fans.
