Page 51: Pci Interrupt Routing Map
Motherboard Resources 2.6 PCI Interrupt Routing Map The PCI specification allows for sharing of interrupts between devices attached to the PCI bus. In most cases, the small amount of latency added by interrupt sharing does not affect the normal operation or throughput of the devices. However, in some special cases where maximum performance is needed from a device, you may want to ensure that it does not share an interrupt with other PCI devices. - Page 52 AN430TX Motherboard Technical Product Specification Now, however, plug an add-in card that has one interrupt (group INTA) into the first PCI slot. Plug a second add-in card that has two interrupts (groups INTA and INTB) into the second PCI slot. INTA in the first slot is connected to signal PIRQA. INTA in the second slot is connected to signal PIRQB, and INTB is connected to signal PIRQC.
