Interrupt
Table 4-2. Interrupt specifications
Number of user interrupts One
PCI Interrupt PCI INTA# - mapped to IRQn via PCI BIOS at boot-time
Interrupt enables
External: IRQ ENABLE, active low, disabled by default through internal
resistor to TTL high) and programmable through PCI9030-AA60PI; 0 =
disabled, 1 = enabled (default)
External: IRQ IN, polarity programmable through PCI9030-AA60PI;
1 = active high, 0 = active low (default).
Interrupt sources
IRQ IN maps to PLX 9030 LINT1.
