INTRODUCTION
The DESKPOWER 2000 is a high-performance computer based on Intel
®
810
chipset. The board is designed for the Intel
®
Celeron
TM
(PPGA) processor for
inexpensive business/personal desktop markets.
The Intel
®
810 chipset is the first generation Integrated Graphics chipset for the
Intel
®
Celeron
TM
processor. The graphics accelerator architecture consists of
dedicated multi-media engines executing in parallel to deliver high performance
3D, 2D, and motion compensation video capabilities. An integrated centralized
memory arbiter allocates memory bandwidth to multiple system agents to
optimize system memory utilization. A new chipset component interconnect, the
hub interface, is designed into the Intel 810 chipset to provide an efficient
communication channel between the memory controller hub and I/O hub
controller.
The Intel
®
810 chipset contains three core components: the Graphics and Memory
Controller Hub (GMCH/GMCH0), the I/O Controller Hub (ICH0/ICH) and the
Firmware Hub (FWH). The GMCH integrates a 66/100MHz, P6family system bus
controller, integrates 2D/3D graphics accelerator, 100MHz SDRAM controller and
high-speed hub interface for communication with the ICH0/ICH. The ICH0/ICH
integrates an Ultra ATA/33(ICH0) or Ultra ATA/66(ICH) controller, USB host
controller, LPC interface controller, FWH interface controller, PCI interface
controller, AC’97 digital controller and a hub interface for communication with the
GMCH/GMCH0.
The Intel
®
82802 Firmware Hub (FWH) component is part of the Intel
®
810 chipset.
The FWH is key to enabling future security and manageability infrastructure for the
PC platform.
