2 System Board The Input/Output Controller Hub (82801AA) The Super I/O Controller (NS 87364) The Super I/O chip (NS 87364) provides the control for two FDD devices, two serial ports, one bidirectional multi-mode parallel port, and a keyboard and mouse controller. Device Ultra I/O Index 2Eh Data 2Fh Serial / Parallel Communications Ports The 9-pin serial ports (whose pin layouts are depicted on page 144) supports RS-232-C and are buffered by 16550A UARTs, with 16-Byte FIFOs. They can be programmed as COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, or disabled. The 25-pin parallel port (also depicted on page 145) is Centronics compatible, supporting IEEE 1284. It can be programmed as LPT1, LPT2, or disabled. It can operate in the four following modes: Ì Standard mode (PC/XT, PC/AT, and PS/2 compatible). Ì Bidirectional mode (PC/XT, PC/AT, and PS/2 compatible). Ì Enhanced mode (enhanced parallel port, EPP, compatible). Ì High speed mode (MS/HP extended capabilities port, ECP, compatible). FDC The integrated floppy disk controller (FDC) supports any combination of two of the following: tape drives, 3.5-inch flexible disk drives, 5.25-inch flexible disk drives. It is software and register-compatible with the 82077AA, and 100% IBM-compatible. It has an A and B drive-swapping capability and a non-burst DMA option. Keyboard and Mouse Controller The computer has an 8042-based keyboard and mouse controller. The connector pin layouts are shown on page 143. 61
