PCI Express* Controller (x16) Registers
368 Datasheet, Volume 2 of 2
12.12 I/O Base Address (IOBASE)—Offset 1Ch
This register controls the Processor to PCI Express-G I/O access routing based on the
following formula:
IO_BASE=< address =<IO_LIMIT
Only upper 4 bits are programmable. For the purpose of address decode address bits
A[11:0] are treated as 0. Thus the bottom of the defined I/O address range will be
aligned to a 4KB boundary.
Access Method
Default: F0h
12.13 I/O Limit Address (IOLIMIT)—Offset 1Dh
This register controls the Processor to PCI Express-G I/O access routing based on the
following formula:
IO_BASE=< address =<IO_LIMIT
Only upper 4 bits are programmable. For the purpose of address decode address bits
A[11:0] are assumed to be FFFh. Thus, the top of the defined I/O address range will be
at the top of a 4KB aligned address block.
Access Method
Default: 0h
