Affected Documents/Related Documents Document Title Number ® Intel 6 Series Chipset Datasheet 324645-001 Nomenclature Errata are design defects or errors. Errata may cause the behavior of the PCH to deviate from published specifications. Hardware and software designed to be used with any given stepping must assume that all errata documented for that stepping are present in all devices.
Summary Tables of Changes The following tables indicate the errata, specification changes, specification clarifications, or documentation changes which apply to the PCH product. Intel may fix some of the errata in a future stepping of the component, and account for the other outstanding issues through documentation or specification changes as noted.

LAN Device ID is loaded from EEPROM. If EEPROM contains either 0000h or FFFFh in the Device ID ® GbE physical layer Transceiver (PHY) location, then 1C33h is used. Refer to the appropriate Intel datasheet for LAN Device IDs. This table shows the default PCI Express Function Number-to-Root Port mapping. Function numbers for a given root port are assignable through the “Root Port Function Number and Hide for PCI Express Root...
If a single data pack et is lost no perce ptible impact for the end user is expected. Note: Intel has only observed the issue in a synthetic test environment where precise control of packet scheduling is available, and has not observed this failure in its compatibility validation testing.

The loss of a single isochronous transaction may not result in end user perceptible impact. Note: Intel has only observed this failure when using software that does not comply with the USB specification and violates the hardware isochronous scheduling threshold by terminating transactions that are already in progress Workaround: None.

Errata Asynchronous Retries Prioritized Over Periodic Transfers Problem: The integr ated USB incorrectly prioritizes Full-Sp eed and Low-Speed asynchronous retries over dispatchable periodic transfers. Implication: Periodic transfers may be delayed or aborted. If the asynchronous retry latency causes the periodi c transfer to be aborted, the impact v aries depending on the nature of periodic transfer: •...
