PIT Memory Map/Register Definition
The PIT programmable register map occupies 32 bytes of memory-mapped space. Reading undefined
portions of the memory map returns all zeros; writing has no effect.
All PIT registers are 32-bit wide and reside on 32-bit address boundaries and should only be accessed as
32-bit quantities.
All addresses used in this chapter are offsets from PIT base, as defined in
Table 5-47
shows the PIT memory map.
