    2 System Board Host Bus Host Bus The Host bus of the Pentium III processors, also referred to as the FSB (Front Side Bus), is implemented in the AGTL (Assisted Gunning Transceiver Logic)+ technology. This technology features open-drain signal drivers that are pulled-up to 1.5 V through resistors at bus extremities; these resistors also act as bus terminators, and are integrated in the processor.
  • Page 67: Intel Pentium Iii Processor

    2 System Board Host Bus accept another request. The MCH, as target device, then requests the bus again when it is ready to respond, and sends the requested data packet. Up to four transactions are allowed to be outstanding at any given time. For the Host bus to run at 133 MHz while respecting the specified signal and timings, a distributed mechanism is used on each AGTL+ signal.

The following table shows how the interrupts are connected to the APIC controller. The Interrupt Requests (IRQ) are numbered sequentially, starting with the master controller, and followed by the slave (both of 82C59 type).
  • Page 110 5 HP BIOS BIOS Addresses There are three major interrupt modes available: PIC mode: This “Legacy” mode uses only the interrupt controllers. Therefore, only one processor can be supported in this mode. This mode can be selected upon installation of Windows NT. Virtual wire mode: This mode is implemented using the 82C59 interrupt and the I/O APIC controller and is used during boot time.
