Table 9: Spi Required Command Codes - Intel S3210SHLX - Entry Server Board Motherboard Specification

Intel® Server Boards S3200SH/S3210SH TPS
The SPI flash meets the following requirements:
•
Erase size capability of 4 Kbyte or 64 Kbyte
•
SPI device meets the command set per Table 9.
Command and opcode C7h for Full Chip Erase is recommended for streamlined software
development.
•
Supports JEDEC ID OP Code 9FH
•
Support multiple writes to a page without requiring a preceding command (minimum 512
writes)
•
Ignores the upper address bit such that an address of FFFFFFFFh simply aliases to the
top of the flash memory.
•
SPI Compatibility Mode 0
•
Receipt of an unsupported command causes a completed cycle without impact to the
flash content
•
Minimum density of 16 Mb (BIOS + Gbe)
•
Power up in an unlocked state or use the write status register to disable write protection.

JEDEC ID
The SPI Flash Memory device is the Atmel* AT26DF321 a 32-megabit, 2.7 to 3.6 volt serial
interface FLASH memory, Intel part number D64145-001/D64145-002. The AT26DF321
supports the block erase command opcodes 20H and D8H providing respectively 4-Kbytes or
64-Kbytes block erase sizes. This is installed directly onto the server board without the use of
sockets.
3.2.3.15 Manageability
The ICH9 integrates several functions designed to manage the system and lower the total cost
of ownership (TCO) of the system. These system management functions are designed to report
errors, diagnose the system, and recover from system lockups without the aid of an external
microcontroller.
