Extended Data Out (EDO) DRAM
66-MHz memory bus
The clocking architecture supports the use of SDRAM. The clocking mode for 100-MHz SDRAM
memory configurations allows all host and SDRAM clocks to be generated from the same clocking
source on the system electronics. For complete details about memory device support, organization,
size, and addressing when using SDRAM memory and trace length guidelines, refer to the

Reset Strap Options
Several strap options on the memory address bus define the behavior of the Pentium
III
processor
mobile module after reset. Other straps are allowed to override the default settings.
Table 13
shows
the various straps and their implementation.
4.3.3
PCI Interface
The PCI interface of the 82443BX Host Bridge is available at the MMC-2 connector. The
82443BX Host Bridge supports the PCI Clockrun protocol for PCI bus power management. In this
protocol, PCI devices assert the CLKRUN# open-drain signal when they require the use of the PCI
interface. Refer to the
PCI Mobile Design Guide
for complete details on the PCI Clockrun
protocol.
The 82443BX Host Bridge is responsible for arbitrating the PCI bus. The 82443BX Host Bridge
can support up to five PCI bus masters. There are five PCI Request/Grant pairs (REQ[4:0]# and
GNT[4:0]#) available on the connector to the system electronics.
Note:
The PCI interface on the MMC-2 connector is 3.3V only. PCI devices that are 5.0V are not
supported.
The 82443BX Host Bridge system controller is compliant with the
PCI 2.1 Specification
, which
improves the worst case PCI bus access latency from earlier PCI specifications. The 82443BX
Host Bridge supports only Mechanism #1 for accessing PCI configuration space. This implies that
signals AD[31:11] are available for PCI IDSEL signals. However, since the 82443BX Host Bridge
