Intel® 460GX Chipset Software Developer’s Manual 14-9
SM Bus Controller Configuration
14.3.4 smbhstcmd–SMBus Host Command Register (I/O)
I/O Address: Base + (03h)
Default Value: 00h
Attribute: Read/Write
This register is transmitted by the SMBus controller host interface in the command field of the
SMBus protocol.
14.3.5 smbhstadd–SMBus Host Address Register (I/O)
I/O Address: Base + (04h)
Default Value: 00h
Attribute: Read/Write
This register is transmitted by the SMBus controller host interface in the slave address field of the
SMBus protocol.
14.3.6 smbhstdat0–SMBus Host Data 0 Register (I/O)
I/O Address: Base + (05h)
Default Value: 00h
Attribute: Read/Write
This register is transmitted by the SMBus controller host interface in the Data0 field of the SMBus
protocol.
Bit Description
7:0 SMBus Host Command (HST_CMD)–R/W. This field contains the data transmitted in the
command field of SMBus host transaction.
Bit Description
7:1 SMBus Address (SMB_ADDRESS)–R/W. This field contains the 7-bit address of the targeted
slave device.
0 SMBus Read or Write (SMB_RW)–R/W. 1 = Execute a READ command. 0 = Execute a WRITE
command.
Bit Description
7:0 SMBus Data 0 (SMBD0)–R/W. This register should be programmed with the value to be
transmitted in the Data0 field of an SMBus host interface transaction. For a block write
command, the count of the memory block should be stored in this field. The value of this register
is loaded into the block transfer count field. This register must be programmed to a value
between 1 and 32 for block command counts. A count of 0 or a count above 32 will result in
unpredictable behavior. For block reads, the count received from the SMBus device is stored
here.
