Intel Core 2 Duo Processor and Intel Q35 Express Chipset—About This Manual
Advanced Digital Display Card – 2
for an Intel Graphics Controller that supports ADD2+ cards. It plugs into a x16 PCI
Express* connector but uses the multiplexed SDVO interface. The card adds Video In
capabilities to platform. This Advanced Digital Display Card will not work with an Intel
Graphics Controller that supports DVO and ADD cards. It will function as an ADD2 card in
an ADD2 supported system, but video in capabilities will not work.
Memory Controller Hub component that contains the processor interface, DRAM
controller, and x16 PCI Express* port (typically, the external graphics interface). It
communicates with the I/O controller hub (Intel ICH9) and other I/O controller hubs over
the DMI interconnect. In this document MCH refers to the Intel® Q35 MCH component.
Media Expansion Card, also known as ADD2+ card. Refer to ADD2+ term for description.
Third Generation input/output graphics attach called PCI Express* Graphics. PCI Express*
is a high-speed serial interface whose configuration is software compatible with the
existing PCI specifications. The specific PCI Express* implementation intended for
connecting the (G)MCH to an external Graphics Controller is a x16 link and replaces AGP.
The Primary PCI is the physical PCI bus that is driven directly by the ICH9 component.
Communication between Primary PCI and the (G)MCH occurs over DMI. Note that the
Primary PCI bus is not PCI Bus 0 from a configuration standpoint.
Serial Digital Video Out (SDVO). SDVO is a digital display channel that serially transmits
digital display data to an external SDVO device. The SDVO device accepts this serialized
format and then translates the data into the appropriate display format (i.e., TMDS,
LVDS, TV-Out). This interface is not electrically compatible with the previous digital
display channel - DVO. For the 82Q965 GMCH, it will be multiplexed on a portion of the
x16 graphics PCI Express* interface.
Third party codec that uses SDVO as an input. May have a variety of output formats,
including DVI, LVDS, HDMI, TV-out, etc.
System Management Interrupt. SMI is used to indicate any of several system conditions
(such as, thermal sensor events, throttling activated, access to System Management
RAM, chassis open, or other system state related activity).
A unit of DRAM corresponding to eight x8 SDRAM devices in parallel or four x16 SDRAM
devices in parallel, ignoring ECC. These devices are usually, but not always, mounted on a
single side of a DIMM.
