1.6.7.1 PMU Timers There are several devices related timers available on the V1-LS chip. Each timer may have zero or more devices assigned to the timer for the purpose of retriggering the timer. Table 1-15 PMU Timers List Item Descriptions Video timer Timer value 30sec, 1min, 1.5min, 2min, 2.5min, 3min, 3.5min, 4min, 4.
Table 1-15 PMU Timers List Item System activities and timer retriggers Descriptions System activities − Power off either or both FDD and CD-ROM. Tri-state FDD and CD-ROM interfaces and stop IDE controller clock. Timer retriggers − The I/O access to 3F2, 3F4, 3F5(FDD), 3F7, 376(CD ROM) will retrigger the timer. Detective hardware change 1.6.7.2 • 1. The PX3_FDDBEN signal on pin-M3 of U21(PIIX4) is from L to H. CD-ROM buffer is disabled. 2.
3. CD-ROM Reset [pin-U13 of U21(PX3_CDRST#) of PIIX4]. The reset pin is used to assert the hard reset needed for the CD-ROM during power up. The reset pin is asserted before CD-ROM power up and is deasserted after CD-ROM power up and before the buffer is enabled. • Floppy The floppy has two components involved in the process. The floppy drive and the controller imbedded in the 87338 super I/O chip. The FDC enable/disabled function is controlled by 87338 chip.
Recovery from power down is the opposite procedure. • SIR (UART) The FIR port is basically UART2. The UART operates off of a 14MHz clock. The IR port has a DA converter. The UART2 disable control circuit is within the 87338 chip. 1. Tri-state the UART2 output pins. 2. Disable the 14MHz clock (If the floppy and the serial port are also disabled). If the 14MHz is disabled through the National power down mode, then all serial and floppy functions will fail.
• CPU The CPU clock. The clock to the CPU can be physically stopped. The chip is static, so the current state is retained. During a clock stop state, the CPU is stopped and the internal cache and external bus signals are inoperative. Therefore, any bus master or DMA activity is halted as well. CPU thermal alarm.
For suspend-to-disk, all devices are read, saved to local memory and the local memory, video memory are saved to a disk file which is created by SLEEP MANAGER utility. The machine is then commanded to an off state. • Resume events for zero-volt suspend(suspend-to-disk) The only resume event for zero-volt suspend is the raising of the lid of the computer. This electronically enables the power to the rest of the machine. • Resume events for static suspend (suspend-to-memory) 1. Resume on schedule.

2.2 Intel PIIX4 PIIX4 is a multi-function PCI device that integrates many system-level functions. PCI to ISA/EIO Bridge PIIX4 is compatible with the PCI Rev 2.1 specification, as well as the IEEE 996 specification for the ISA (AT) bus. On PCI, PIIX4 operates as a master for various internal modules, such as the USB controller, DMA controller, IDE bus master controller, distributed DMA masters, and on behalf of ISA masters.
The timer/counter block contains three counters that are equivalent in function to those found in one 82C54 programmable interval timer. These three counters are combined to provide the system timer function, refresh request, and speaker tone. The 14.31818-MHz oscillator input provides the clock source for these three counters. PIIX4 provides an ISA-Compatible interrupt controller that incorporates the functionality of two 82C59 interrupt controllers.
Enhanced Power Management PIIX4’s power management functions include enhanced clock control, local and global monitoring support for 14 individual devices, and various low-power (suspend) states, such as Power-On Suspend, Suspend-to-DRAM, and Suspend-to-Disk. A hardware-based thermal management circuit permits software-independent entrance to low-power states. PIIX4 has dedicated pins to monitor various external events (e.g., interfaces to a notebook lid, suspend/resume button, battery low indicators, etc.
• Full Support for Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) Revision 1.
The 82371AB PCI ISA IDE Xcelerator (PIIX4) is a multi-function PCI device implementing a PCIto-ISA bridge function, a PCI IDE function, a Universal Serial Bus host/hub function, and an Enhanced Power Management function. As a PCI-to-ISA bridge, PIIX4 integrates many common I/O functions found in ISA-based PC systems—two 82C37 DMA Controllers, two 82C59 Interrupt Controllers, an 82C54 Timer/Counter, and a Real Time Clock. In addition to compatible transfers, each DMA channel supports Type F transfers.
2.2.
2.2.4 Pin Descriptions This section provides a detailed description of each signal. The signals are arranged in functional groups according to their associated interface. The “#” symbol at the end of a signal name indicates that the active, or asserted state occurs when the signal is at a low voltage level. When “#” is not present after the signal name, the signal is asserted when at the high voltage level. The terms assertion and negation are used exclusively.
Table 2-2 82371AB Pin Descriptions Name Type Description PCI BUS INTERFACE AD[31:0] I/O C/BE#[3:0] I/O BUS COMMAND AND BYTE ENABLES. The command and byte enable signals are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. During the address phase of a transaction, C/BE[3:0]# define the bus command. During the data phase C/BE[3:0]# are used as Byte Enables. The Byte Enables determine which byte lanes carry meaningful data. C/BE0# applies to byte 0, C/BE1# to byte 1, etc.
Table 2-2 Name IRDY# 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type I/O Description INITIATOR READY. IRDY# indicates PIIX4’s ability, as an Initiator, to complete the current data phase of the transaction. It is used in conjunction with TRDY#. A data phase is completed on any clock both IRDY# and TRDY# are sampled asserted. During a write, IRDY# indicates PIIX4 has valid data present on AD[31:0]. During a read, it indicates PIIX4 is prepared to latch data.
Table 2-2 Name TRDY# 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type I/O Description TARGET READY. TRDY# indicates PIIX4’s ability to complete the current data phase of the transaction. TRDY# is used in conjunction with IRDY#. A data phase is completed when both TRDY# and IRDY# are sampled asserted. During a read, TRDY# indicates that PIIX4, as a Target, has place valid data on AD[31:0]. During a write, it indicates PIIX4, as a Target is prepared to latch data.
Table 2-2 Name IOW# 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type I/O Description I/O WRITE. IOW# is the command to an ISA I/O slave device that the slave may latch data from the ISA data bus (SD[15:0]). IOW# is an output when PIIX4 owns the ISA Bus. IOW# is an input when an external ISA master owns the ISA Bus. During Reset: High-Z After Reset: High During POS: High LA[23:17]/ I/O GPO[7:1] ISA LA[23:17]. LA[23:17] address lines allow accesses to physical memory on the ISA Bus up to 16 Mbytes.
Table 2-2 Name SA[19:0] 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type I/O Description SYSTEM ADDRESS[19:0]. These bi-directional address lines define the selection with the granularity of 1 byte within the 1-Megabyte section of memory defined by the LA[23:17] address lines. The address lines SA[19:17] that are coincident with LA[19:17] are defined to have the same values as LA[19:17] for all memory cycles. For I/O accesses, only SA[15:0] are used, and SA[19:16] are undefined.
Table 2-2 Name KBCCS#/ 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type O GPO26 Description KEYBOARD CONTROLLER CHIP SELECT. KBCCS# is asserted during I/O read or write accesses to KBC locations 60h and 64h. It is driven combinatorially from the ISA addresses SA[19:0] and LA[23:17]. If the keyboard controller does not require a separate chip select, this signal can be programmed to a general purpose output. During Reset: High After Reset: High During POS: High/GPO MCCS# O PCS0# O MICROCONTROLLER CHIP SELECT.
Table 2-2 Name XOE#/ 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type O GPO23 Description X-BUS TRANSCEIVER OUTPUT ENABLE. XOE# is tied directly to the output enable of a 74’245 that buffers the X-Bus data, XD[7:0], from the system data bus, SD[7:0]. XOE# is asserted anytime a PIIX4 supported X-Bus device is decoded, and the devices decode is enabled in the X-Bus Chip Select Enable Register (BIOSCS#, KBCCS#, RTCCS#, MCCS#) or the Device Resource B (PCCS0#) and Device Resource C (PCCS1#).
Table 2-2 Name 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type Description INTERRUPT CONTROLLER/APIC SIGNALS APICACK#/ O GPO12 APIC ACKNOWLEDGE. This active low output signal is asserted by PIIX4 after its internal buffers are flushed in response to the APICREQ# signal. When the I/O APIC samples this signal asserted it knows that PIIX4’s buffers are flushed and that it can proceed to send the APIC interrupt. The APICACK# output is synchronous to PCICLK.
Table 2-2 Name 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type Description IRQ 12/M I INTERRUPT REQUEST 12. In addition to providing the standard interrupt function as described in the pin description for IRQ[3:7,9:11,14:15], this pin can also be programmed to provide the mouse interrupt function. When the mouse interrupt function is selected, a low to high transition on this signal is latched by PIIX4 and an INTR is generated to the CPU as IRQ12.
Table 2-2 Name INIT 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type OD Description INITIALIZATION. INIT is asserted in response to any one of the following conditions. When the System Reset bit in the Reset Control Register is reset to 0 and the Reset CPU bit toggles from 0 to 1, PIIX4 initiates a soft reset by asserting INIT. PIIX4 also asserts INIT if a Shut Down Special cycle is decoded on the PCI Bus, if the RCIN# signal is asserted, or if a write occurs to Port 92h, bit 0.
Table 2-2 Name 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type Description PCICLK I FREE-RUNNING PCI CLOCK. A clock signal running at 30 or 33 MHz, PCICLK provides timing for all transactions on the PCI Bus. All other PCI signals are sampled on the rising edge of PCICLK, and all timing parameters are defined with respect to this edge. Because many of the circuits in PIIX4 run off the PCI clock, this signal MUST be kept active, even if the PCI bus clock is not active. OSC I 14.31818-MHZ CLOCK.
Table 2-2 Name PDDACK# 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type O Description PRIMARY DMA ACKNOWLEDGE. This signal directly drives the IDE device DMACK# signal. It is asserted by PIIX4 to indicate to IDE DMA slave devices that a given data transfer cycle (assertion of PDIOR# or PDIOW#) is a DMA data transfer cycle. This signal is used in conjunction with the PCI bus master IDE function. It is not associated with any AT compatible DMA channel.
Table 2-2 Name 82371AB Pin Descriptions Type Description PIORDY I PRIMARY IO CHANNEL READY. In normal IDE mode, this input signal is directly driven by the corresponding IDE device IORDY signal. In an Ultra DMA/33 read cycle, this signal is used as STROBE, with the PIIX4 latching data on rising and falling edges of STROBE.

Tip: We suggest you set all of these parameters to Auto whenever that choice is available.
3.3.6 Reset PnP Resources The system resources are already properly configured. If resource conflicts arise, you can set this parameter to Yes to reset and reallocate PnP resources, after which the BIOS automatically resets this parameter to No, which is the default setting.
3.4 Power Saving Options Selecting Power Saving Options on the BIOS Utility main screen presents a screen that allows you to adjust several power-saving settings. 3.4.1 When Lid is Closed The computer’s lid switch acts as its power switch: opening the display wakes up the computer, closing the display puts it to sleep. The When Lid is Closed setting determines which suspend mode the computer enters when the display is closed: Suspend to Disk or Suspend to Memory. The default is Suspend to Disk.
3.4.5 Resume On Schedule When this parameter is set to Enabled, the computer resumes from suspend-to-memory mode at the specified date and time. Enabling this option overrides the suspend-to-disk function. The Resume Date and Resume Time parameters let you set the date and time for the resume operation. The date and time fields take the same format as the System Date and Time parameters in the System Configuration screen.
3.5 System Security When you select System Security from the BIOS Utility main screen, a screen appears that allows you to set security options. Important! If a password is currently present, the system prompts you to input the password before entering the System Security screen. 3.5.1 Supervisor and User Passwords The supervisor and user passwords both prevent unauthorized access to the computer.
3.5.2 Diskette Drive Access Control This parameter allows you to control the read and write functions of the floppy drive. The available options. are: Normal, Write Protect, and Disabled. The default is Normal. With this parameter set to Normal, the floppy drive functions normally. When the parameter is set to Write Protect, all write functions to the floppy drive are disabled, but you can still read from a disk in the floppy drive. When the parameter is set to Disabled, the floppy drive is disabled. 3.
3.6 Reset To Default Settings When you select the Reset To Default Settings from the BIOS Utility main screen, a dialog box appears asking you to confirm that you want to reset all settings to their factory defaults.
C h a p t e r 4 Disassembly and Unit Replacement This chapter contains step-by-step procedures on how to disassemble the notebook computer for maintenance and troubleshooting. To disassemble the computer, you need the following tools: • Wrist grounding strap and conductive mat for preventing electrostatic discharge • Flat-bladed screwdriver • Phillips screwdriver • Hexagonal screwdriver • Tweezers • Plastic stick The screws for the different components vary in size.
a b c Figure 4-1 Removing the Battery Pack Removing all power sources from the system prevents accidental short circuit during the disassembly process.
4.1.2 Connector Types There are two kinds of connectors on the main board: • Connectors with no locks Unplug the cable by simply pulling out the cable from the connector. • Connectors with locks You can use a plastic stick to lock and unlock connectors with locks. The cables used here are special FPC (flexible printed-circuit) cables, which are more delicate than normal plastic-enclosed cables. Therefore, to prevent damage, make sure that you unlock the connectors before pulling out the cables.
Connectors mentioned in the following procedures are assumed to be no-lock connectors unless specified otherwise. 4.1.3 Disassembly Sequence The disassembly procedure described in this manual is divided into eight major sections: • Section 4.2: Removing the module • Section 4.3: Replacing the hard disk drive • Section 4.4: Replacing memory • Section 4.5: Removing the keyboard • Section 4.6: Replacing the CPU • Section 4.7: Removing the display • Section 4.
The following diagram details the disassembly flow.
4.2 Removing the Module If you are going to disassemble the unit, it is advisable to remove the module first before proceeding. Follow these steps to remove the module: 1. Slide out and hold the module release button. 2. Press the module release latch and slide out the module.
4.3 Replacing the Hard Disk Drive Follow these steps: 1. Turn the computer over to access the base. 2. Remove the two screws from the hard disk drive bay cover and remove the cover. Figure 4-5 3. Removing the Hard Disk Drive Bay Cover Lift up (1), then pull out the hard disk drive; then flip the hard disk drive over and unplug the hard disk drive connector. Figure 4-6 Removing the Hard Disk Drive If you want to install a new hard disk drive, reverse the steps described above.
4.4 Replacing Memory The memory slots (SIMM1 and SIMM2) are accessible via the memory door at the base of the unit. Follow these steps to install memory module(s): 1. Turn the computer over to access the base. 2. Remove the screws from the memory door and remove the door. Figure 4-7 Installing a Memory Module 3. Remove the memory module(s) from its shipping container. 4. Align the connector edge of the memory module with the key in the connector.
You must run the Sleep Manager utility after installing additional memory in order for the 0V Suspend function to operate in your system.
