16-bit PDH bus with reserved address space for the following:
Flash memory
Nonvolatile memory
Scratch RAM
Real-time clock
UARTs
External registers
Firmware read/writable registers
Two general purpose 32-bit registers
Semaphore registers
Monarch selection registers
Test and reset register
Reset and INIT generation
Field Programmable Gate Array
The Field Programmable Gate array (FPGA) provides ACPI and LPC support for the PDH bus
and provides these features:
ACPI 2.0 interface
LPC bus interface to support BMC
Decoding logic for PDH devices
BMC
The BMC supports the industry-standard Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI)

SCSI Controller
The SCSI controller is a LSI Logic 53C1030 chip. This chip is fully compliant with the SCSI
Peripheral Interface-4 Specification (SPI-4). It has two independent SCSI channels supporting
devices at speeds up to 320 MB/seconds each. The 53C1030 adheres to the PCI-X addendum, to
the PCI Local Specification, and is hard-wired to PCI ID 1 which corresponds to bit 17 of the PCI
AD bus.
