7.10 General Purpose I/O Registers
The control for the general purpose I/O signals is handled through a 128-byte I/O
space. The base offset for this space is selected by the GPIOBASE register.
Bit Description
7:0 The BIOS or system management software can write into this register to indicate more details on
the boot progress. The register will reset to 00h based on a RSMRST# (but not PLTRST#). The
external microcontroller can read this register to monitor boot progress.
Bit Description
7:2 Reserved
1 IRQ12_CAUSE — R/W. When software sets this bit to 1, IRQ12 will be asserted. When software sets
this bit to 0, IRQ12 will be de-asserted.
0 IRQ1_CAUSE — R/W. When software sets this bit to 1, IRQ1 will be asserted. When software sets
this bit to 0, IRQ1 will be de-asserted.
Bit Description
15:10 Reserved
9:0 TCO Timer Initial Value — R/W. Value that is loaded into the timer each time the TCO_RLD
register is written. Values of 0000h or 0001h will be ignored and should not be attempted. The timer
is clocked at approximately 0.6 seconds, and thus allows timeouts ranging from 1.2 second to
613.8 seconds.
Note: The timer has an error of ±1 tick (0.6 S).
The TCO Timer will only count down in the S0 state.
