Each function within the CSB5 South Bridge has its own set of configuration registers. Once configured, each appears to the system as a distinct hardware controller sharing the same PCI bus interface. On the SAI2 baseboard, the primary role of the CSB5 South Bridge is to provide the gateway to all PC-compatible I/O devices and features. The SAI2 server board uses the following CSB5 South Bridge features: • PCI interface • IDE interface • USB interface • PC-compatible timer/counters and Direct Memory Access (DMA) controllers • Baseboard Plug-and-Play support • General purpose I/O • Power management • APIC and 82C59 interrupt controller • Host interface for AT compatible signaling • Internal only ISA bus (no ISA expansion connectors) bridge for communication with Super I/O, and BIOS flash The following sections describe each supported feature as used on the SAI2 server board. 10 Revision 1.0

CSB5 South Bridge
The CSB5 South Bridge is a PCI device that provides multiple PCI functions in a single
package: PCI-to-ISA bridge, PCI IDE interface, PCI USB controller, and power management
controller. Each function within the CSB5 South Bridge has its own set of configuration
registers. Once configured, each appears to the system as a distinct hardware controller
sharing the same PCI bus interface.
On the SAI2 baseboard, the primary role of the CSB5 South Bridge is to provide the gateway to
all PC-compatible I/O devices and features. The SAI2 server board uses the following CSB5
South Bridge features:
PCI interface
IDE interface
USB interface
PC-compatible timer/counters and Direct Memory Access (DMA) controllers
Baseboard Plug-and-Play support
General purpose I/O
Power management
APIC and 82C59 interrupt controller
Host interface for AT compatible signaling
Internal only ISA bus (no ISA expansion connectors) bridge for communication with
Super I/O, and BIOS flash
The following sections describe each supported feature as used on the SAI2 server board.
