Product Description 1.8.3 USB The boards support up to eight USB 2.0 ports, supports UHCI and EHCI, and uses UHCI- and EHCI-compatible drivers. The ICH5 provides the USB controller for all ports. The port arrangement is as follows: • Two ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors, adjacent to the PS/2 connectors • Two ports are implemented with stacked back panel connectors, adjacent to the audio connectors • Four ports are routed to two separate front panel USB connectors ✏ NOTES • Computer systems that have an unshielded cable attached to a USB port may not meet FCC Class B requirements, even if no device is attached to the cable. Use shielded cable that meets the requirements for full-speed devices. • Native USB 2.0 support has been tested with drivers for Windows 2000 (with Service Pack 3) and Windows XP (with Service Pack 1) and is not currently supported by any other operating system. Check Intel's Desktop Board website for possible driver updates for other operating systems. For information about The location of the USB connectors on the back panel The location of the front panel USB connectors The EHCI, front panel, UHCI, and USB specifications Refer to Figure 18, page 69 Figure 23, page 79 Section 1.5, page 18 1.8.4 IDE Support The board provides four IDE interface connectors: • Two Parallel ATA IDE connectors, which support a total of four devices (two per connector) • Two Serial ATA IDE connectors, which support one device per connector 1.8.4.1 Parallel ATA IDE Interfaces The ICH5's Parallel ATA IDE controller has two independent bus-mastering Parallel ATA IDE interfaces that can be independently enabled. The Parallel ATA IDE interfaces support the following modes: • Programmed I/O (PIO): processor controls data transfer. • 8237-style DMA: DMA offloads the processor, supporting transfer rates of up to 16 MB/sec. • Ultra DMA: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of up to 33 MB/sec. • ATA-66: DMA protocol on IDE bus supporting host and target throttling and transfer rates of up to 66 MB/sec. ATA-66 protocol is similar to Ultra DMA and is device driver compatible. • ATA-100: DMA protocol on IDE bus allows host and target throttling. The ICH5's ATA-100 logic can achieve read transfer rates up to 100 MB/sec and write transfer rates up to 88 MB/sec. 39
