SE7221BK1-E Technical Product Specification
Checkpoint
05 Initializes the interrupt controlling hardware (generally PIC) and interrupt vector table.
06 Do R/W test to CH-2 count reg. Initialize CH-0 as system timer. Install the POSTINT1Ch handler.
Enable IRQ-0 in PIC for system timer interrupt.
Traps INT1Ch vector to "POSTINT1ChHandlerBlock."
08 Initializes the CPU. The BAT test is being done on KBC. Program the keyboard controller
command byte is being done after Auto detection of KB/MS using AMI KB-5.
C0 Early CPU Init Start -- Disable Cache - Init Local APIC
C1 Set up boot strap processor Information
C2 Set up boot strap processor for POST
C5 Enumerate and set up application processors
C6 Re-enable cache for boot strap processor
C7 Early CPU Init Exit
0A Initializes the 8042 compatible Key Board Controller.
0B Detects the presence of PS/2 mouse.
0C Detects the presence of Keyboard in KBC port.
0E Testing and initialization of different Input Devices. Also, update the Kernel Variables.
Traps the INT09h vector, so that the POST INT09h handler gets control for IRQ1. Uncompress all
available language, BIOS logo, and Silent logo modules.
13 Early POST initialization of chipset registers.
24 Uncompress and initialize any platform specific BIOS modules.
30 Initialize System Management Interrupt.
2A Initializes different devices through DIM.
See DIM Code Checkpoints section of document for more information.
2C Initializes different devices. Detects and initializes the video adapter installed in the system that
have optional ROMs.
2E Initializes all the output devices.
31 Allocate memory for ADM module and uncompress it. Give control to ADM module for initialization.
Initialize language and font modules for ADM. Activate ADM module.
33 Initializes the silent boot module. Set the window for displaying text information.
37 Displaying sign-on message, CPU information, setup key message, and any OEM specific
information.
38 Initializes different devices through DIM. See DIM Code Checkpoints section of document for more
information.
39 Initializes DMAC-1 & DMAC-2.
3A Initialize RTC date/time.
3B Test for total memory installed in the system. Also, Check for DEL or ESC keys to limit memory
test. Display total memory in the system.
3C Mid POST initialization of chipset registers.
40 Detect different devices (Parallel ports, serial ports, and coprocessor in CPU, ... etc.) successfully
installed in the system and update the BDA, EBDA...etc.
50 Programming the memory hole or any kind of implementation that needs an adjustment in system
RAM size if needed.
52 Updates CMOS memory size from memory found in memory test. Allocates memory for Extended
BIOS Data Area from base memory.
60 Initializes NUM-LOCK status and programs the KBD typematic rate.
75 Initialize Int-13 and prepare for IPL detection.
78 Initializes IPL devices controlled by BIOS and option ROMs.
