1.8 Intel
®
845 Chipset
The Intel 845 chipset consists of the following devices:
Intel 82845 Memory Controller Hub (MCH) with Accelerated Hub Architecture (AHA) bus
Intel 82801BA I/O Controller Hub (ICH2) with AHA bus
Intel
82802AB Firmware Hub (FWH)
The MCH is a centralized controller for the system bus, the memory bus, the AGP bus, and the
Accelerated Hub Architecture interface.
The ICH2 is a centralized controller for the board
s I/O
paths.
The FWH provides the nonvolatile storage of the BIOS.
The component combination
provides the chipset interfaces as shown in Figure 5.
