GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The SCH3223 is a 3.3V (Super I/O Block is 5V tolerant) PC99/PC2001 compliant Super I/O controller with an LPC interface. The SCH3223 also includes Hardware Monitoring capabilities, enhanced Security features, Power Control logic
and Motherboard Glue logic.
SCH3223 The SCH3223 incorporates Super I/O functionality including LPC bus interface, a Serialized IRQ interface
and the ISA Plug-and-Play standard register set (Version 1.0a). The I/O Address and hardware IRQ of each logical
device in the SCH3223 may be reprogrammed through the internal configuration registers. Related functionality offers
flexibility to the system designer, with General Purpose I/O control functions, and control of two LED's.
The SCH3223's Hardware Monitoring capability includes temperature, voltage and fan speed monitoring. It has the ability to alert the system of out-of-limit conditions and automatically control the speed of a fan via PWM and Tach pins.
There are four analog inputs for monitoring external voltages of +5V, +2.5V, +12V and Vccp (core processor voltage),
as well as internal monitoring of its VCC, VTR, and Vbat power supplies. The SCH3223 includes support for monitoring
one external temperature via thermal diode inputs and an internal sensor for measuring ambient temperature. The hardware monitoring block of the SCH3223 is accessible via the LPC bus. Interrupt events can create PME wakeup events.
The Motherboard Glue logic includes various power management and system logic including generation of nRSMRST
and reset generation. The reset generation includes a watchdog timer which can be used to generate a reset pulse. The
width of this pulse is selectable via an external strapping option.
The two serial ports are fully functional NS16550 compatible UARTs that support data rates up to 1.5 Mbps. The Serial
Ports contain programmable direction control, which can automatically drive nRTS based on the status of the Output
Buffer.
The SCH3223 is ACPI 1.0/2.0 compatible and therefore supports multiple low power-down modes.
CAUTION: This device contains circuits which must not be used because their pins are not brought out of the package,
and are pulled to known states internally. Any features, and especially Logical Devices, that are not listed in this document must not be activated or accessed. Doing so may cause unpredictable behavior and/or excessive currents, and
therefore may damage the device and/or the system.

Note 2-1
Buffer types per function on multiplexed pins are separated by a slash “/”. Buffer types in parenthesis
represent multiple buffer types for a single pin function.
Note 2-2
Pins that have input buffers must always be held to either a logical low or a logical high state when
powered. Bi-directional buses that may be trisected should have either weak external pull-ups or pulldowns to hold the pins in a logic state (i.e., logic states are VCC or ground).
Note 2-3
VCC and VSS pins are for Super I/O Blocks. HVTR and HVSS are dedicated for the Hardware
Monitoring Block.
Note 2-4
VTR can be connected to VCC if no wake-up functionality is required.
Note 2-5
The nRTS1/SYSOPT0 pin requires an external pull-down resistor to put the base I/O address for
configuration at 0x02E. An external pull-up resistor is required to move the base I/O address for
configuration to 0x04E.
Note 2-6
The LED pins are powered by VTR so that the LEDs can be controlled when the part is under VTR
power.
Note 2-7
This pin is an input into the wake-up logic that is powered by VTR. In the case of a ring indicator for
a serial port, or a GPIO it will also go to VCC powered logic. This logic must be disabled when
VCC=0.
Note 2-8
This analog input is backdrive protected. Although HVTR is powered by VTR, it is possible that
monitored power supplies may be powered when HVTR is off.
Note 2-9
The GP53/TXD2 pin defaults to the GPIO input function on a VTR POR and presents a tristate
impedance. When VCC=0 the pin is tristate. If GP53 function is selected and VCC is power is applied,
the pin reflects the current state of GP53. The GP53/TXD2 pin is tristate when it is configured for the
TXD2 function.
Note 2-10
All logic is powered by VTR. Vcc on pin 29 is used as an indication of the presence of the VCC rail
being active. All logic that requires VCC power, is only enabled when the VCC rail is active.
Note 2-11
The GP55/nRTS2/RESGEN pin requires an external pull-down resistor to enable 500ms delay circuit.
An external pull-up resistor is required to enable 200ms delay circuit.

User’s Note:
Open-drain pins should be pulled-up externally to supply shown in the power well column. All other pins are driven under
the power well shown.
• NOMENCLATURE:
- No Gate indicates that the pin is not protected, or affected by VCC=0 operation
- Gate indicates that the pin is protected as an input (if required) or set to a HI-Z state as an output (if required)
- In these columns, information is given in order of pin function: e.g. 1st pin function / 2nd pin function

SCH3223
4.0
POWER FUNCTIONALITY
The SCH3223 has five power planes: VCC, HVTR, VREF, VTR, and Vbat.
4.1
VCC Power
The SCH3223 is a 3.3 Volt part. The VCC supply is 3.3 Volts (nominal). VCC is the main power supply for the Super I/O
Block. See Section 25.2, "DC Electrical Characteristics," on page 170.
4.2
HVTR Power
The HVTR supply is 3.3 Volts (nominal). HVTR is a dedicated power supply for the Hardware Monitoring Block. HVTR
is connected to the VTR suspend well. See Section 25.2, "DC Electrical Characteristics," on page 170.
Note:
4.3
The hardware monitoring logic is powered by HVTR, but only operational when VCC is on. The hardware
monitoring block is connected to the suspend well to retain the programmed configuration through a sleep
cycle.
VTR Support
The SCH3223 requires a trickle supply (VTR) to provide sleep current for the programmable wake-up events in the PME
interface when VCC is removed. The VTR supply is 3.3 Volts (nominal). See Section 25.0, "Operational Description,"
on page 170. The maximum VTR current that is required depends on the functions that are used in the part. See
Section 25.0.
If the SCH3223 is not intended to provide wake-up capabilities on standby current, VTR can be connected to VCC. VTR
powers the IR interface, the PME configuration registers, and the PME interface. The VTR pin generates a VTR Poweron-Reset signal to initialize these components. If VTR is to be used for programmable wake-up events when VCC is
removed, VTR must be at its full minimum potential at least 10 ms before Vcc begins a power-on cycle. Note that under
all circumstances, the hardware monitoring HVTR must be driven as the same source as VTR.
4.3.1
TRICKLE POWER FUNCTIONALITY
When the SCH3223 is running under VTR only (VCC removed), PME wakeup events are active and (if enabled) able
to assert the nIO_PME pin active low.
The following requirements apply to all I/O pins that are specified to be 5 volt tolerant.
• I/O buffers that are wake-up event compatible are powered by VCC. Under VTR power (VCC=0), these pins may
only be configured as inputs. These pins have input buffers into the wakeup logic that are powered by VTR.
• I/O buffers that may be configured as either push-pull or open drain under VTR power (VCC=0), are powered by
VTR. This means, at a minimum, they will source their specified current from VTR even when VCC is present.
The GPIOs that are used for PME wakeup as input are GP27, GP50-GP57, GP60, GP61. These GPIOs function as
follows (with the exception of GP60 and GP61 - see below):
• Buffers are powered by VCC, but in the absence of VCC they are backdrive protected (they do not impose a load
on any external VTR powered circuitry). They are wakeup compatible as inputs under VTR power. These pins
have input buffers into the wakeup logic that are powered by VTR.
All GPIOs listed above are PME wakeup as a GPIO (or alternate function).
The other GPIOs function as follows:
GP42, GP60 and GP61:
• Buffers powered by VTR. GP42 is the nIO_PME pin which is active under VTR. GP60 and GP61 have LED as the
alternate function and the logic is able to control the pin under VTR.
The following list summarizes the blocks, registers and pins that are powered by VTR.

Vbat Support
Vbat is a battery generated power supply that is needed to support the power recovery logic. The power recovery logic
is used to restore power to the system in the event of a power failure. Power may be returned to the system by the main
power button, or by the power recovery logic following an unexpected power failure.
The Vbat supply is 3.0 Volts (nominal). See Section 25.0, "Operational Description," on page 170.
The following Runtime Registers are powered by Vbat:

Note:
4.5
All Vbat powered pins and registers are powered by VTR when VTR power is on and are battery backedup when VTR is removed.
32.768 KHz Trickle Clock Input
The SCH3223 utilizes a 32.768 KHz trickle input to supply a clock signal for the WDT, LED blink and Power Recovery
Logic.
Indication of 32KHZ Clock
There is a bit to indicate whether or not the 32KHz clock input is connected to the SCH3223. This bit is located at bit 0
of the CLOCKI32 register at 0xF0 in Logical Device A. This register is powered by VTR and reset on a VTR POR.
Bit[0] (CLK32_PRSN) is defined as follows:
0=32KHz clock is connected to the CLKI32 pin (default)
1=32KHz clock is not connected to the CLKI32 pin (pin is grounded).
Bit 0 controls the source of the 32KHz (nominal) clock for the LED blink logic. When the external 32KHz clock is connected, that will be the source for the LED logic. When the external 32KHz clock is not connected, an internal 32KHz
clock source will be derived from the 14MHz clock for the LED logic.

Super I/O Functions
The maximum VTR current, ITR, is given with all outputs open (not loaded), and all inputs in a fixed state (i.e., 0V or
3.3V). The total maximum current for the part is the unloaded value PLUS the maximum current sourced by the pin that
is driven by VTR. The super I/O pins that are powered by VTR are as follows: GP42/nIO_PME, GP60/LED1, and
GP61/LED2. These pins, if configured as push-pull outputs, will source a minimum of 6mA at 2.4V when driving.
The maximum VCC current, ICC, is given with all outputs open (not loaded) and all inputs in a fixed state (i.e., 0V or
3.3V).
The maximum Vbat current, Ibat, is given with all outputs open (not loaded) and all inputs in a fixed state (i.e., 0V or 3.3V).
4.7
Power Management Events (PME/SCI)
The SCH3223 offers support for Power Management Events (PMEs), also referred to as System Control Interrupt (SCI)
events. The terms PME and SCI are used synonymously throughout this document to refer to the indication of an event
to the chipset via the assertion of the nIO_PME output signal. See the Section 12.0, "PME Support," on page 46 section.

SIO OVERVIEW
The SCH3223 is a Super I/O Device with hardware monitoring. The Super I/O features are implemented as logical
devices accessible through the LPC interface. The Super I/O blocks are powered by VCC, VTR, or Vbat. The Hardware
Monitoring block is powered by HVTR and is accessible via the LPC interface. The following chapters define each of
the functional blocks implemented in the SCH3223, their corresponding registers, and physical characteristics.
This chapter offers an introduction into the Super I/O functional blocks, registers and host interface. Details regarding
the hardware monitoring block are defined in later chapters. Note that the Super I/O registers are implemented as typical
Plug-and-Play components.
5.1
Super I/O Registers
The address map, shown below in Table 5-1 shows the addresses of the different blocks of the Super I/O immediately
after power up. The base addresses of all the Super I/O Logical Blocks, including the configuration register block, can
be moved or relocated via the configuration registers.
Note:
5.2
Some addresses are used to access more than one register.
Host Processor Interface (LPC)
The host processor communicates with the Super I/O features in the SCH3223 through a series of read/write registers
via the LPC interface. The port addresses for these registers are shown in Table 5-1, "Super I/O Block Addresses". Register access is accomplished through I/O cycles or DMA transfers. All registers are 8 bits wide.
Note:
The SCH3223 does not use or need LPC DMA.

Device Specific Information
The LPC interface conforms to the “Low Pin Count (LPC) Interface Specification”. The following section will review any
implementation specific information for this device.
Note:
6.3.1
The SCH3223 packaging does not support any form of DMA, as it has no peripherals that would use it.
SYNC PROTOCOL
The SYNC pattern is used to add wait states. For read cycles, the SCH3223 immediately drives the SYNC pattern upon
recognizing the cycle. The host immediately drives the sync pattern for write cycles. If the SCH3223 needs to assert
wait states, it does so by driving 0101 or 0110 on LAD[3:0] until it is ready, at which point it will drive 0000 or 1001. The
SCH3223 will choose to assert 0101 or 0110, but not switch between the two patterns.
The data (or wait state SYNC) will immediately follow the 0000 or 1001 value. The SYNC value of 0101 is intended to
be used for normal wait states, wherein the cycle will complete within a few clocks.
DS00002028B-page 18
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
SCH3223
The SYNC value of 0110 is intended to be used where the number of wait states is large. However, the SCH3223 uses
a SYNC of 0110 for all wait states in an I/O transfer.
The SYNC value is driven within 3 clocks.
6.3.2
RESET POLICY
The following rules govern the reset policy:
• When PCI_RESET# goes inactive (high), the PCI clock is assumed to have been running for 100usec prior to the
removal of the reset signal, so that everything is stable. This is the same reset active time after clock is stable that
is used for the PCI bus.
• When PCI_RESET# goes active (low):
1. The host drives the LFRAME# signal high, tristates the LAD[3:0] signals, and ignores the LDRQ# signal.
2. The SCH3223 ignores LFRAME#, tristates the LAD[3:0] pins and drives the LDRQ# signal inactive (high).

7.0
SERIAL PORT (UART)
The SCH3223 incorporates two full function UARTs. They are compatible with the NS16450, the 16450 ACE registers
and the NS16C550A. The UARTS perform serial-to-parallel conversion on received characters and parallel-to-serial
conversion on transmit characters. The data rates are independently programmable from 460.8K baud down to 50 baud.
The character options are programmable for 1 start; 1, 1.5 or 2 stop bits; even, odd, sticky or no parity; and prioritized
interrupts. The UARTs each contain a programmable baud rate generator that is capable of dividing the input clock or
crystal by a number from 1 to 65535. The UARTs are also capable of supporting the MIDI data rate. Refer to the Configuration Registers for information on disabling, power down and changing the base address of the UARTs. The interrupt from a UART is enabled by programming OUT2 of that UART to a logic “1”. OUT2 being a logic “0” disables that
UART’s interrupt.
7.1
Register Description
Addressing of the accessible registers of the Serial Port is shown below. The base addresses of the serial ports are
defined by the configuration registers (see Section 22.0, "Config Registers," on page 137). The Serial Port registers are
located at sequentially increasing addresses above these base addresses. The register set of the UARTS are described

The following section describes the operation of the registers.
7.1.1
RECEIVE BUFFER REGISTER (RB)
Address Offset = 0H, DLAB = 0, READ ONLY
This register holds the received incoming data byte. Bit 0 is the least significant bit, which is transmitted and received
first. Received data is double buffered; this uses an additional shift register to receive the serial data stream and convert
it to a parallel 8 bit word which is transferred to the Receive Buffer register. The shift register is not accessible.
7.1.2
TRANSMIT BUFFER REGISTER (TB)
Address Offset = 0H, DLAB = 0, WRITE ONLY
This register contains the data byte to be transmitted. The transmit buffer is double buffered, utilizing an additional shift
register (not accessible) to convert the 8 bit data word to a serial format. This shift register is loaded from the Transmit
Buffer when the transmission of the previous byte is complete.

 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
SCH3223
7.1.3
INTERRUPT ENABLE REGISTER (IER)
Address Offset = 1H, DLAB = 0, READ/WRITE
The lower four bits of this register control the enables of the five interrupt sources of the Serial Port interrupt. It is possible
to totally disable the interrupt system by resetting bits 0 through 3 of this register. Similarly, setting the appropriate bits
of this register to a high, selected interrupts can be enabled. Disabling the interrupt system inhibits the Interrupt Identification Register and disables any Serial Port interrupt out of the SCH3223. All other system functions operate in their
normal manner, including the Line Status and MODEM Status Registers. The contents of the Interrupt Enable Register
are described below.
Bit 0
This bit enables the Received Data Available Interrupt (and timeout interrupts in the FIFO mode) when set to logic “1”.
Bit 1
This bit enables the Transmitter Holding Register Empty Interrupt when set to logic “1”.
Bit 2
This bit enables the Received Line Status Interrupt when set to logic “1”. The error sources causing the interrupt are
Overrun, Parity, Framing and Break. The Line Status Register must be read to determine the source.
Bit 3
This bit enables the MODEM Status Interrupt when set to logic “1”. This is caused when one of the Modem Status Register bits changes state.
Bits 4 through 7
These bits are always logic “0”.
7.1.4
FIFO CONTROL REGISTER (FCR)
Address Offset = 2H, DLAB = X, WRITE
This is a write only register at the same location as the IIR. This register is used to enable and clear the FIFOs, set the
RCVR FIFO trigger level. Note: DMA is not supported. The UART1 and UART2 FCRs are shadowed in the UART1 FIFO
Control Shadow Register (runtime register at offset 0x20) and UART2 FIFO Control Shadow Register (runtime register
at offset 0x21).
Bit 0
Setting this bit to a logic “1” enables both the XMIT and RCVR FIFOs. Clearing this bit to a logic “0” disables both the
XMIT and RCVR FIFOs and clears all bytes from both FIFOs. When changing from FIFO Mode to non-FIFO (16450)
mode, data is automatically cleared from the FIFOs. This bit must be a 1 when other bits in this register are written to
or they will not be properly programmed.
Bit 1
Setting this bit to a logic “1” clears all bytes in the RCVR FIFO and resets its counter logic to 0. The shift register is not
cleared. This bit is self-clearing.
Bit 2
Setting this bit to a logic “1” clears all bytes in the XMIT FIFO and resets its counter logic to 0. The shift register is not
cleared. This bit is self-clearing.
Bit 3
Writing to this bit has no effect on the operation of the UART. The RXRDY and TXRDY pins are not available on this chip.
Bit 4,5

7.1.5
INTERRUPT IDENTIFICATION REGISTER (IIR)
Address Offset = 2H, DLAB = X, READ
By accessing this register, the host CPU can determine the highest priority interrupt and its source. Four levels of priority
interrupt exist. They are in descending order of priority:
1.
2.
3.
4.
Receiver Line Status (highest priority)
Received Data Ready
Transmitter Holding Register Empty
MODEM Status (lowest priority)
Information indicating that a prioritized interrupt is pending and the source of that interrupt is stored in the Interrupt Identification Register (refer to Table 7-2 on page 22). When the CPU accesses the IIR, the Serial Port freezes all interrupts
and indicates the highest priority pending interrupt to the CPU. During this CPU access, even if the Serial Port records
new interrupts, the current indication does not change until access is completed. The contents of the IIR are described
below.
Bit 0
This bit can be used in either a hardwired prioritized or polled environment to indicate whether an interrupt is pending.
When bit 0 is a logic “0”, an interrupt is pending and the contents of the IIR may be used as a pointer to the appropriate
internal service routine. When bit 0 is a logic “1”, no interrupt is pending.
Bits 1 and 2
These two bits of the IIR are used to identify the highest priority interrupt pending as indicated by the Interrupt Control
Table (Table 7-2).
Bit 3
In non-FIFO mode, this bit is a logic “0”. In FIFO mode this bit is set along with bit 2 when a timeout interrupt is pending.
Bits 4 and 5
These bits of the IIR are always logic “0”.
Bits 6 and 7
These two bits are set when the FIFO CONTROL Register bit 0 equals 1.

Note:
The receiver will ignore all stop bits beyond the first, regardless of the number used in transmitting.
Bit 3
Parity Enable bit. When bit 3 is a logic “1”, a parity bit is generated (transmit data) or checked (receive data) between
the last data word bit and the first stop bit of the serial data. (The parity bit is used to generate an even or odd number
of 1s when the data word bits and the parity bit are summed).
Bit 4
Even Parity Select bit. When bit 3 is a logic “1” and bit 4 is a logic “0”, an odd number of logic “1”’s is transmitted or
checked in the data word bits and the parity bit. When bit 3 is a logic “1” and bit 4 is a logic “1” an even number of bits
is transmitted and checked.
Bit 5
This bit is the Stick Parity bit. When parity is enabled it is used in conjunction with bit 4 to select Mark or Space Parity.
When LCR bits 3, 4 and 5 are 1 the Parity bit is transmitted and checked as a 0 (Space Parity). If bits 3 and 5 are 1 and
bit 4 is a 0, then the Parity bit is transmitted and checked as 1 (Mark Parity). If bit 5 is 0 Stick Parity is disabled.
Bit 6
Set Break Control bit. When bit 6 is a logic “1”, the transmit data output (TXD) is forced to the Spacing or logic “0” state
and remains there (until reset by a low level bit 6) regardless of other transmitter activity. This feature enables the Serial
Port to alert a terminal in a communications system.
Bit 7
Divisor Latch Access bit (DLAB). It must be set high (logic “1”) to access the Divisor Latches of the Baud Rate Generator
during read or write operations. It must be set low (logic “0”) to access the Receiver Buffer Register, the Transmitter
Holding Register, or the Interrupt Enable Register.
7.1.7
MODEM CONTROL REGISTER (MCR)
Address Offset = 4H, DLAB = X, READ/WRITE
This 8 bit register controls the interface with the MODEM or data set (or device emulating a MODEM). The contents of
the MODEM control register are described below.
Bit 0
This bit controls the Data Terminal Ready (nDTR) output. When bit 0 is set to a logic “1”, the nDTR output is forced to
a logic “0”. When bit 0 is a logic “0”, the nDTR output is forced to a logic “1”.
Bit 1
This bit controls the Request To Send (nRTS) output. Bit 1 affects the nRTS output in a manner identical to that
described above for bit 0.
Bit 2
This bit controls the Output 1 (OUT1) bit. This bit does not have an output pin and can only be read or written by the CPU.
Bit 3
Output 2 (OUT2). This bit is used to enable an UART interrupt. When OUT2 is a logic "0", the serial port interrupt output
is forced to a high impedance state - disabled. When OUT2 is a logic "1", the serial port interrupt outputs are enabled.
Bit 4
This bit provides the loopback feature for diagnostic testing of the Serial Port. When bit 4 is set to logic “1”, the following
occur:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
The TXD is set to the Marking State (logic “1”).
The receiver Serial Input (RXD) is disconnected.
The output of the Transmitter Shift Register is “looped back” into the Receiver Shift Register input.
All MODEM Control inputs (nCTS, nDSR, nRI and nDCD) are disconnected.
The four MODEM Control outputs (nDTR, nRTS, OUT1 and OUT2) are internally connected to the four MODEM
Control inputs (nDSR, nCTS, RI, DCD).
The Modem Control output pins are forced inactive high.
Data that is transmitted is immediately received.

SCH3223
This feature allows the processor to verify the transmit and receive data paths of the Serial Port. In the diagnostic mode,
the receiver and the transmitter interrupts are fully operational. The MODEM Control Interrupts are also operational but
the interrupts’ sources are now the lower four bits of the MODEM Control Register instead of the MODEM Control inputs.
The interrupts are still controlled by the Interrupt Enable Register.
Bits 5 through 7
These bits are permanently set to logic zero.
7.1.8
LINE STATUS REGISTER (LSR)
Address Offset = 5H, DLAB = X, READ/WRITE
Bit 0
Data Ready (DR). It is set to a logic “1” whenever a complete incoming character has been received and transferred
into the Receiver Buffer Register or the FIFO. Bit 0 is reset to a logic “0” by reading all of the data in the Receive Buffer
Register or the FIFO.
Bit 1
Overrun Error (OE). Bit 1 indicates that data in the Receiver Buffer Register was not read before the next character was
transferred into the register, thereby destroying the previous character. In FIFO mode, an overrun error will occur only
when the FIFO is full and the next character has been completely received in the shift register, the character in the shift
register is overwritten but not transferred to the FIFO. The OE indicator is set to a logic “1” immediately upon detection
of an overrun condition, and reset whenever the Line Status Register is read.
Bit 2
Parity Error (PE). Bit 2 indicates that the received data character does not have the correct even or odd parity, as
selected by the even parity select bit. The PE is set to a logic “1” upon detection of a parity error and is reset to a logic
“0” whenever the Line Status Register is read. In the FIFO mode this error is associated with the particular character in
the FIFO it applies to. This error is indicated when the associated character is at the top of the FIFO.
Bit 3
Framing Error (FE). Bit 3 indicates that the received character did not have a valid stop bit. Bit 3 is set to a logic “1”
whenever the stop bit following the last data bit or parity bit is detected as a zero bit (Spacing level). The FE is reset to
a logic “0” whenever the Line Status Register is read. In the FIFO mode this error is associated with the particular character in the FIFO it applies to. This error is indicated when the associated character is at the top of the FIFO. The Serial
Port will try to resynchronize after a framing error. To do this, it assumes that the framing error was due to the next start
bit, so it samples this ‘start’ bit twice and then takes in the ‘data’.
Bit 4
Break Interrupt (BI). Bit 4 is set to a logic “1” whenever the received data input is held in the Spacing state (logic “0”) for
longer than a full word transmission time (that is, the total time of the start bit + data bits + parity bits + stop bits). The
BI is reset after the CPU reads the contents of the Line Status Register. In the FIFO mode this error is associated with
the particular character in the FIFO it applies to. This error is indicated when the associated character is at the top of
the FIFO. When break occurs only one zero character is loaded into the FIFO. Restarting after a break is received,
requires the serial data (RXD) to be logic “1” for at least ½ bit time.
Note:
Bits 1 through 4 are the error conditions that produce a Receiver Line Status Interrupt whenever any of the
corresponding conditions are detected and the interrupt is enabled.
Bit 5
Transmitter Holding Register Empty (THRE). Bit 5 indicates that the Serial Port is ready to accept a new character for
transmission. In addition, this bit causes the Serial Port to issue an interrupt when the Transmitter Holding Register interrupt enable is set high. The THRE bit is set to a logic “1” when a character is transferred from the Transmitter Holding
Register into the Transmitter Shift Register. The bit is reset to logic “0” whenever the CPU loads the Transmitter Holding
Register. In the FIFO mode this bit is set when the XMIT FIFO is empty, it is cleared when at least 1 byte is written to
the XMIT FIFO. Bit 5 is a read only bit.
Bit 6
Transmitter Empty (TEMT). Bit 6 is set to a logic “1” whenever the Transmitter Holding Register (THR) and Transmitter
Shift Register (TSR) are both empty. It is reset to logic “0” whenever either the THR or TSR contains a data character.
Bit 6 is a read only bit. In the FIFO mode this bit is set whenever the THR and TSR are both empty.

DS00002028B-page 25
SCH3223
Bit 7
This bit is permanently set to logic “0” in the 450 mode. In the FIFO mode, this bit is set to a logic “1” when there is at
least one parity error, framing error or break indication in the FIFO. This bit is cleared when the LSR is read if there are
no subsequent errors in the FIFO.
7.1.9
MODEM STATUS REGISTER (MSR)
Address Offset = 6H, DLAB = X, READ/WRITE
This 8 bit register provides the current state of the control lines from the MODEM (or peripheral device). In addition to
this current state information, four bits of the MODEM Status Register (MSR) provide change information. These bits
are set to logic “1” whenever a control input from the MODEM changes state. They are reset to logic “0” whenever the
MODEM Status Register is read.
Bit 0
Delta Clear To Send (DCTS). Bit 0 indicates that the nCTS input to the chip has changed state since the last time the
MSR was read.
Bit 1
Delta Data Set Ready (DDSR). Bit 1 indicates that the nDSR input has changed state since the last time the MSR was
read.
Bit 2
Trailing Edge of Ring Indicator (TERI). Bit 2 indicates that the nRI input has changed from logic “0” to logic “1”.
Bit 3
Delta Data Carrier Detect (DDCD). Bit 3 indicates that the nDCD input to the chip has changed state.
Note:
Whenever bit 0, 1, 2, or 3 is set to a logic “1”, a MODEM Status Interrupt is generated.
Bit 4
This bit is the complement of the Clear To Send (nCTS) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic “1”, this bit is equivalent
to nRTS in the MCR.
Bit 5
This bit is the complement of the Data Set Ready (nDSR) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic “1”, this bit is equivalent
to DTR in the MCR.
Bit 6
This bit is the complement of the Ring Indicator (nRI) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic “1”, this bit is equivalent to
OUT1 in the MCR.
Bit 7
This bit is the complement of the Data Carrier Detect (nDCD) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to logic “1”, this bit is equivalent to OUT2 in the MCR.
7.1.10
SCRATCHPAD REGISTER (SCR)
Address Offset =7H, DLAB =X, READ/WRITE
This 8 bit read/write register has no effect on the operation of the Serial Port. It is intended as a scratchpad register to
be used by the programmer to hold data temporarily.
7.1.11
PROGRAMMABLE BAUD RATE GENERATOR (AND DIVISOR LATCHES DLH, DLL)
The Serial Port contains a programmable Baud Rate Generator that is capable of dividing the internal PLL clock by any
divisor from 1 to 65535. The internal PLL clock is divided down to generate a 1.8462MHz frequency for Baud Rates less
than 38.4k, a 1.8432MHz frequency for 115.2k, a 3.6864MHz frequency for 230.4k and a 7.3728MHz frequency for
460.8k. This output frequency of the Baud Rate Generator is 16x the Baud rate. Two 8 bit latches store the divisor in 16
bit binary format. These Divisor Latches must be loaded during initialization in order to insure desired operation of the
Baud Rate Generator. Upon loading either of the Divisor Latches, a 16 bit Baud counter is immediately loaded. This
prevents long counts on initial load. If a 0 is loaded into the BRG registers the output divides the clock by the number 3.
DS00002028B-page 26
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
SCH3223
If a 1 is loaded the output is the inverse of the input oscillator. If a two is loaded the output is a divide by 2 signal with a
50% duty cycle. If a 3 or greater is loaded the output is low for 2 bits and high for the remainder of the count. The input
clock to the BRG is a 1.8462 MHz clock.
Programming High Speed Serial Port baud Rates
The SCH3223 supports serial ports with speeds up to 1.5Mb/s. Changing the serial ports baud rates between standard
speeds (115k baud and slower) during runtime is possible with standard drivers. In order to change baud rates to high
speed (230k, 460k, 921k and 1.5M bauds) on the SCH3223 device during runtime, registers in both Configuration space
and Runtime space must be programmed.
Note that this applies only if the application requires a serial port baud rate to change during runtime. Standard windows
drivers could be used to select the specific high speed rate if it will remain unchanged during runtime Table 7-4 on
page 28 shows the baud rates possible.
7.1.12
EFFECT OF THE RESET ON THE REGISTER FILE
The Reset Function (details the effect of the Reset input on each of the registers of the Serial Port.
7.1.13
FIFO INTERRUPT MODE OPERATION
When the RCVR FIFO and receiver interrupts are enabled (FCR bit 0 = “1”, IER bit 0 = “1”), RCVR interrupts occur as
follows:
• The receive data available interrupt will be issued when the FIFO has reached its programmed trigger level; it is
cleared as soon as the FIFO drops below its programmed trigger level.
• The IIR receive data available indication also occurs when the FIFO trigger level is reached. It is cleared when the
FIFO drops below the trigger level.
• The receiver line status interrupt (IIR=06H), has higher priority than the received data available (IIR=04H) interrupt.
• The data ready bit (LSR bit 0) is set as soon as a character is transferred from the shift register to the RCVR FIFO.
It is reset when the FIFO is empty.
When RCVR FIFO and receiver interrupts are enabled, RCVR FIFO timeout interrupts occur as follows:
• A FIFO timeout interrupt occurs if all the following conditions exist:
At least one character is in the FIFO.
The most recent serial character received was longer than 4 continuous character times ago. (If 2 stop bits are programmed, the second one is included in this time delay).
The most recent CPU read of the FIFO was longer than 4 continuous character times ago.
This will cause a maximum character received to interrupt issued delay of 160 msec at 300 BAUD with a 12-bit character.
• Character times are calculated by using the RCLK input for a clock signal (this makes the delay proportional to the
baud rate).
• When a timeout interrupt has occurred it is cleared and the timer reset when the CPU reads one character from
the RCVR FIFO.
• When a timeout interrupt has not occurred the timeout timer is reset after a new character is received or after the
CPU reads the RCVR FIFO.
When the XMIT FIFO and transmitter interrupts are enabled (FCR bit 0 = “1”, IER bit 1 = “1”), XMIT interrupts occur as
follows:
• The transmitter holding register interrupt (02H) occurs when the XMIT FIFO is empty; it is cleared as soon as the
transmitter holding register is written to (1 of 16 characters may be written to the XMIT FIFO while servicing this
interrupt) or the IIR is read.
• The transmitter FIFO empty indications will be delayed 1 character time minus the last stop bit time whenever the
following occurs: THRE=1 and there have not been at least two bytes at the same time in the transmitter FIFO
since the last THRE=1. The transmitter interrupt after changing FCR0 will be immediate, if it is enabled.
Character timeout and RCVR FIFO trigger level interrupts have the same priority as the current received data available
interrupt; XMIT FIFO empty has the same priority as the current transmitter holding register empty interrupt.

7.1.14
FIFO POLLED MODE OPERATION
With FCR bit 0 = “1” resetting IER bits 0, 1, 2 or 3 or all to zero puts the UART in the FIFO Polled Mode of operation.
Since the RCVR and XMITTER are controlled separately, either one or both can be in the polled mode of operation. In
this mode, the user’s program will check RCVR and XMITTER status via the LSR. LSR definitions for the FIFO Polled
Mode are as follows:
Bit 0=1 as long as there is one byte in the RCVR FIFO.
Bits 1 to 4 specify which error(s) have occurred. Character error status is handled the same way as when in the interrupt
mode, the IIR is not affected since EIR bit 2=0.
Bit 5 indicates when the XMIT FIFO is empty.
Bit 6 indicates that both the XMIT FIFO and shift register are empty.
Bit 7 indicates whether there are any errors in the RCVR FIFO.
There is no trigger level reached or timeout condition indicated in the FIFO Polled Mode, however, the RCVR and XMIT
FIFOs are still fully capable of holding characters.

NOTES ON SERIAL PORT OPERATION
FIFO Mode Operation:
General
The RCVR FIFO will hold up to 16 bytes regardless of which trigger level is selected.
7.1.16.1
TX and RX FIFO Operation
The Tx portion of the UART transmits data through TXD as soon as the CPU loads a byte into the Tx FIFO. The UART
will prevent loads to the Tx FIFO if it currently holds 16 characters. Loading to the Tx FIFO will again be enabled as
soon as the next character is transferred to the Tx shift register. These capabilities account for the largely autonomous
operation of the Tx.
The UART starts the above operations typically with a Tx interrupt. The chip issues a Tx interrupt whenever the Tx FIFO
is empty and the Tx interrupt is enabled, except in the following instance. Assume that the Tx FIFO is empty and the
CPU starts to load it. When the first byte enters the FIFO the Tx FIFO empty interrupt will transition from active to inactive. Depending on the execution speed of the service routine software, the UART may be able to transfer this byte from
the FIFO to the shift register before the CPU loads another byte. If this happens, the Tx FIFO will be empty again and
typically the UART’s interrupt line would transition to the active state. This could cause a system with an interrupt control
unit to record a Tx FIFO empty condition, even though the CPU is currently servicing that interrupt. Therefore, after the
first byte has been loaded into the FIFO the UART will wait one serial character transmission time before issuing a new
Tx FIFO empty interrupt. This one character Tx interrupt delay will remain active until at least two bytes have been
loaded into the FIFO, concurrently. When the Tx FIFO empties after this condition, the Tx interrupt will be activated without a one character delay.
Rx support functions and operation are quite different from those described for the transmitter. The Rx FIFO receives
data until the number of bytes in the FIFO equals the selected interrupt trigger level. At that time if Rx interrupts are
enabled, the UART will issue an interrupt to the CPU. The Rx FIFO will continue to store bytes until it holds 16 of them.
It will not accept any more data when it is full. Any more data entering the Rx shift register will set the Overrun Error flag.
Normally, the FIFO depth and the programmable trigger levels will give the CPU ample time to empty the Rx FIFO before
an overrun occurs.
One side-effect of having a Rx FIFO is that the selected interrupt trigger level may be above the data level in the FIFO.
This could occur when data at the end of the block contains fewer bytes than the trigger level. No interrupt would be
issued to the CPU and the data would remain in the UART. To prevent the software from having to check for this situation
the chip incorporates a timeout interrupt.
The timeout interrupt is activated when there is a least one byte in the Rx FIFO, and neither the CPU nor the Rx shift
register has accessed the Rx FIFO within 4 character times of the last byte. The timeout interrupt is cleared or reset
when the CPU reads the Rx FIFO or another character enters it.
These FIFO related features allow optimization of CPU/UART transactions and are especially useful given the higher
baud rate capability (256 kbaud).
7.1.16.2
TXD2 Pin
GP53/TXD2 Pin. This pin defaults to the GPIO input function on a VTR POR.
The operation of the GP53/TXD2 pin following a power cycle is special because of its historical usage as an Infrared
output.
The GP53/TXD2 pin will be tristate following a VCC POR, VTR POR, Soft Reset, or PCI Reset when it is configured for
the TXD2 function. It will remain tristate until the UART is powered. Once the UART is powered, the state of the pin will
be determined by the UART block. If VCC>2.4V and GP53 function is selected the pin will reflect the current state of
GP53.
7.2
Interrupt Sharing
Multiple sharing options are available are for the SCH3223 devices. Sharing an interrupt requires the following:
1.
2.
3.
Configure the UART to be the generator to the desired IRQ.
Configure other shared UARTs to use No IRQ selected.
Set the desired share IRQ bit.
APPLICATION NOTE: If both UARTs are configured to use different IRQs and the share IRQ bit is set, then both
of the UART IRQs will assert when either UART generates an interrupt.

RS485 Auto Direction Control
The purpose of this function is to save the effort to deal with direction control in software. A direction control signal (usually nRTS) is used to tristate the transmitter when no other data is available, so that other nodes can use the shared
lines. It is preferred to have this function on all six serial ports.
This will affect the nRTS and nDTR signals for each serial port in the device. Each serial port will have the following
additional characteristics:
• An option register for the serial port in the runtime registers with following bits:
- An enable bit to turn on/off the direction control
- An enable bit to select which bit nRTS or nDTR, of the serial port is affected.
- A bit to select the polarity - high or low, that the selected signal is driven to when the output buffer of the corresponding serial port is empty or full.
• When automatic direction control is enabled, the device monitors the local output buffer for not empty and empty
conditions. If enabled, the direction control will force the nRTS or nDTR signal (selected via programming) to the
desired polarity under the empty or not empty condition. Table 7-9 summarizes the possible programming states.
• Automatic Direction Control of the serial ports is only valid when the FIFO is enabled.
• The multi-function GPIO pins do not automatically set the direction when selected as serial port pins.
• The high speed baud rates will only work if the MSB of the MS divisor is set.

SCH3223
9.2
SER_IRQ Cycle Control
There are two modes of operation for the SER_IRQ Start Frame
1.
Quiet (Active) Mode: Any device may initiate a Start Frame by driving the SER_IRQ low for one clock, while the
SER_IRQ is Idle. After driving low for one clock the SER_IRQ must immediately be tri-stated without at any time
driving high. A Start Frame may not be initiated while the SER_IRQ is Active. The SER_IRQ is Idle between Stop
and Start Frames. The SER_IRQ is Active between Start and Stop Frames. This mode of operation allows the
SER_IRQ to be Idle when there are no IRQ/Data transitions which should be most of the time.
Once a Start Frame has been initiated the Host Controller will take over driving the SER_IRQ low in the next clock and
will continue driving the SER_IRQ low for a programmable period of three to seven clocks. This makes a total low pulse
width of four to eight clocks. Finally, the Host Controller will drive the SER_IRQ back high for one clock, then tri-state.
Any SER_IRQ Device (i.e., The SCH3223 which detects any transition on an IRQ/Data line for which it is responsible
must initiate a Start Frame in order to update the Host Controller unless the SER_IRQ is already in an SER_IRQ Cycle
and the IRQ/Data transition can be delivered in that SER_IRQ Cycle
2.
Continuous (Idle) Mode: Only the Host controller can initiate a Start Frame to update IRQ/Data line information.
All other SER_IRQ agents become passive and may not initiate a Start Frame. SER_IRQ will be driven low for
four to eight clocks by Host Controller. This mode has two functions. It can be used to stop or idle the SER_IRQ
or the Host Controller can operate SER_IRQ in a continuous mode by initiating a Start Frame at the end of every
Stop Frame.
An SER_IRQ mode transition can only occur during the Stop Frame. Upon reset, SER_IRQ bus is defaulted to Continuous mode, therefore only the Host controller can initiate the first Start Frame. Slaves must continuously sample the
Stop Frames pulse width to determine the next SER_IRQ Cycle’s mode.
9.3
SER_IRQ Data Frame
Once a Start Frame has been initiated, the SCH3223 will watch for the rising edge of the Start Pulse and start counting
IRQ/Data Frames from there. Each IRQ/Data Frame is three clocks: Sample phase, Recovery phase, and Turn-around
phase. During the Sample phase the SCH3223 must drive the SER_IRQ low, if and only if, its last detected IRQ/Data
value was low. If its detected IRQ/Data value is high, SER_IRQ must be left tri-stated. During the Recovery phase the
SCH3223 must drive the SER_IRQ high, if and only if, it had driven the SER_IRQ low during the previous Sample
Phase. During the Turn-around Phase the SCH3223 must tri-state the SER_IRQ. The SCH3223 will drive the SER_IRQ
line low at the appropriate sample point if its associated IRQ/Data line is low, regardless of which device initiated the
Start Frame.
The Sample Phase for each IRQ/Data follows the low to high transition of the Start Frame pulse by a number of clocks
equal to the IRQ/Data Frame times three, minus one. (e.g. The IRQ5 Sample clock is the sixth IRQ/Data Frame, (6 x 3)
- 1 = 17th clock after the rising edge of the Start Pulse).

The SER_IRQ data frame supports IRQ2 from a logical device on Period 3, which can be used for the System Management Interrupt (nSMI). When using Period 3 for IRQ2 the user should mask off the SMI via the SMI Enable Register.
Likewise, when using Period 3 for nSMI the user should not configure any logical devices as using IRQ2.
The SMI is enabled onto the SMI frame of the Serial IRQ via bit 6 of SMI Enable Register 2 and onto the nIO_SMI pin
via bit 7 of the SMI Enable Register 2.
9.4
Stop Cycle Control
Once all IRQ/Data Frames have completed the Host Controller will terminate SER_IRQ activity by initiating a Stop
Frame. Only the Host Controller can initiate the Stop Frame. A Stop Frame is indicated when the SER_IRQ is low for
two or three clocks. If the Stop Frame’s low time is two clocks then the next SER_IRQ Cycle’s sampled mode is the
Quiet mode; and any SER_IRQ device may initiate a Start Frame in the second clock or more after the rising edge of
the Stop Frame’s pulse. If the Stop Frame’s low time is three clocks then the next SER_IRQ Cycle’s sampled mode is
the Continuous mode; and only the Host Controller may initiate a Start Frame in the second clock or more after the rising
edge of the Stop Frame’s pulse.
9.5
Latency
Latency for IRQ/Data updates over the SER_IRQ bus in bridge-less systems with the minimum Host supported
IRQ/Data Frames of seventeen, will range up to 96 clocks (3.84S with a 25MHz PCI Bus or 2.88uS with a 33MHz PCI
Bus). If one or more PCI to PCI Bridge is added to a system, the latency for IRQ/Data updates from the secondary or
tertiary buses will be a few clocks longer for synchronous buses, and approximately double for asynchronous buses.
9.6
EOI/ISR Read Latency
Any serialized IRQ scheme has a potential implementation issue related to IRQ latency. IRQ latency could cause an
EOI or ISR Read to precede an IRQ transition that it should have followed. This could cause a system fault. The host
interrupt controller is responsible for ensuring that these latency issues are mitigated. The recommended solution is to
delay EOIs and ISR Reads to the interrupt controller by the same amount as the SER_IRQ Cycle latency in order to
ensure that these events do not occur out of order.
9.7
AC/DC Specification Issue
All SER_IRQ agents must drive / sample SER_IRQ synchronously related to the rising edge of PCI bus clock. The
SER_IRQ pin uses the electrical specification of PCI bus. Electrical parameters will follow PCI spec. section 4, sustained
tri-state.
9.8
Reset and Initialization
The SER_IRQ bus uses PCI_RESET# as its reset signal. The SER_IRQ pin is tri-stated by all agents while PCI_RESET# is active. With reset, SER_IRQ Slaves are put into the (continuous) IDLE mode. The Host Controller is responsible
for starting the initial SER_IRQ Cycle to collect system’s IRQ/Data default values. The system then follows with the Continuous/Quiet mode protocol (Stop Frame pulse width) for subsequent SER_IRQ Cycles. It is Host Controller’s responsibility to provide the default values to 8259’s and other system logic before the first SER_IRQ Cycle is performed. For
SER_IRQ system suspend, insertion, or removal application, the Host controller should be programmed into Continuous
(IDLE) mode first. This is to ensure SER_IRQ bus is in IDLE state before the system configuration changes.

Description
GPIO Operation
The operation of the GPIO ports is illustrated in Figure 10-1.
When a GPIO port is programmed as an input, reading it through the GPIO data register latches either the inverted or
non-inverted logic value present at the GPIO pin. Writing to a GPIO port that is programmed as an input has no effect
(Table 10-4).
When a GPIO port is programmed as an output, the logic value or the inverted logic value that has been written into the
GPIO data register is output to the GPIO pin. Reading from a GPIO port that is programmed as an output returns the
last value written to the data register (Table 10-4). When the GPIO is programmed as an output, the pin is excluded from
the PME and SMI logic.

GPIO PME and SMI Functionality
The SCH3223 provides GPIOs that can directly generate a PME. The polarity bit in the GPIO control registers select
the edge on these GPIO pins that will set the associated status bit in a PME Status. For additional description of PME
behavior see Section 12.0, "PME Support," on page 46. The default is the low-to-high transition. In addition, the
SCH3223 provides GPIOs that can directly generate an SMI.
The following GPIOs are dedicated wakeup GPIOs with a status and enable bit in the PME status and enable registers:
GP27 is controlled by PME_STS3, PME_EN3 registers.
GP50-GP57 are controlled by PME_STS5, PME_EN5 registers.
GP60, GP61 are controlled by PME_STS6, and PME_EN6 registers.
The following GPIOs can directly generate an SMI and have a status and enable bit in the SMI status and enable registers.
GP54, GP55, GP56, GP57, GP60 are controlled by SMI_STS3, and SMI_EN3 registers.
GP42, GP61 are controlled by SMI_STS4, and SMI_EN4 registers.
The following GPIOs have "either edge triggered interrupt" (EETI) input capability: GP60, GP61. These GPIOs can generate a PME and an SMI on both a high-to-low and a low-to-high edge on the GPIO pin. These GPIOs have a status bit
in the PME_STS6 status register that is set on both edges. The corresponding bits in the PME and SMI status registers
are also set on both edges.

10.6
Either Edge Triggered Interrupts
Three GPIO pins are implemented such that they allow an interrupt (PME or SMI) to be generated on both a high-tolow and a low-to-high edge transition, instead of one or the other as selected by the polarity bit.
The either edge triggered interrupts (EETI) function as follows: If the EETI function is selected for the GPIO pin, then
the bits that control input/output, polarity and open drain/push-pull have no effect on the function of the pin. However,
the polarity bit does affect the value of the GP bit.
A PME or SMI interrupt occurs if the PME or SMI enable bit is set for the corresponding GPIO and the EETI function is
selected on the GPIO. The PME or SMI status bits are set when the EETI pin transitions (on either edge) and are cleared
on a write of '1'. There are also status bits for the EETIs located in the PME_STSX register, which are also cleared on
a write of '1'. The MSC_STS register provides the status of all of the EETI interrupts within one register. The PME, SMI
or MSC status is valid whether or not the interrupt is enabled and whether or not the EETI function is selected for the pin.
Miscellaneous Status Register (MSC_STS) is for the either edge triggered interrupt status bits. If the EETI function is
selected for a GPIO then both a high-to-low and a low-to-high edge will set the corresponding MSC status bits. Status
bits are cleared on a write of '1'. See Section 23.0, "Runtime Registers," on page 150 for more information.
The configuration register for the either edge triggered interrupt status bits is defined in Section 23.0.
10.7
LED Functionality
The SCH3223 provides LED functionality on two GPIOs, GP60 and GP61. These pins can be configured to turn the
LED on and off and blink independent of each other through the LED1 and LED2 runtime registers at offset 0x5D and
0x5E from the base address located in the primary base I/O address in Logical Device A.
The LED pins (GP60 and GP61) are able to control the LED while the part is under VTR power with VCC removed. In
order to control a LED while the part is under VTR power, the GPIO pin must be configured for the LED function and
either open drain or push-pull buffer type. In the case of open-drain buffer type, the pin is capable of sinking current to
control the LED. In the case of push-pull buffer type, the part will source current. The part is also able to blink the LED
under VTR power. The LED will not blink under VTR power (VCC removed) if the external 32KHz clock is not connected.
The LED pins can drive a LED when the buffer type is configured to be push-pull and the part is powered by either VCC
or VTR, since the buffers for these pins are powered by VTR. This means they will source their specified current from
VTR even when VCC is present.
The LED control registers are defined in Section 23.0.

SYSTEM MANAGEMENT INTERRUPT (SMI)
The SCH3223 implements a “group” nIO_SMI output pin. The System Management Interrupt is a non-maskable interrupt with the highest priority level used for OS transparent power management. The nSMI group interrupt output consists
of the enabled interrupts from each of the functional blocks in the chip and many of the GPIOs and the Fan tachometer
pins. The GP27/nIO_SMI pin, when selected for the nIO_SMI function, can be programmed to be active high or active
low via the polarity bit in the GP27 register. The output buffer type of the pin can be programmed to be open-drain or
push-pull via bit 7 of the GP27 register. The nIO_SMI pin function defaults to active low, open-drain output.
The interrupts are enabled onto the group nSMI output via the SMI Enable Registers 1 to 4. The nSMI output is then
enabled onto the group nIO_SMI output pin via bit[7] in the SMI Enable Register 2. The SMI output can also be enabled
onto the serial IRQ stream (IRQ2) via Bit[6] in the SMI Enable Register 2. The internal SMI can also be enabled onto
the nIO_PME pin. Bit[5] of the SMI Enable Register 2 (PME_EN2) is used to enable the SMI output onto the nIO_PME
pin (GP42). This bit will enable the internal SMI output into the PME logic through the DEVINT_STS bit in PME_STS3.
11.1
SMI Registers
The SMI event bits for the GPIOs and the Fan tachometer events are located in the SMI status and Enable registers 35. The polarity of the edge used to set the status bit and generate an SMI is controlled by the polarity bit of the control
registers. For non-inverted polarity (default) the status bit is set on the low-to-high edge. If the EETI function is selected
for a GPIO then both a high-to-low and a low-to-high edge will set the corresponding SMI status bit. Status bits for the
GPIOs are cleared on a write of ‘1’.
The SMI logic for these events is implemented such that the output of the status bit for each event is combined with the
corresponding enable bit in order to generate an SMI.
The SMI registers are accessed at an offset from PME_BLK (see Section 23.0, "Runtime Registers," on page 150 for
more information).
The SMI event bits for the super I/O devices are located in the SMI status and enable register 1 and 2. All of these status
bits are cleared at the source except for IRINT, which is cleared by a read of the SMI_STS2 register; these status bits
are not cleared by a write of ‘1’. The SMI logic for these events is implemented such that each event is directly combined
with the corresponding enable bit in order to generate an SMI.
See the Section 23.0 for the definition of these registers.

PME SUPPORT
The SCH3223 offers support for power management events (PMEs), also referred to as a System Control Interrupt
(SCI) events in an ACPI system. A power management event is indicated to the chipset via the assertion of the
nIO_PME signal when in S5 or below power states.
APPLICATION NOTE: Software must properly configure the enable and status bits for the individual PME events in
the registers described below.

The PME function is controlled by the PME status and enable registers in the runtime registers block, which is located
at the address programmed in configuration registers 0x60 and 0x61 in Logical
There are four types of registers which control PME events:
1.
2.
3.
4.
PME Wake Status register (PME_STS1, PME_STS3, PME_STS5, PME_STS6) provides the status of individual
wake events.
PME Wake Enable (PME_EN1, PME_EN3, PME_EN5, PME_EN6) provides the enable for individual wake
events.
PME Pin Enable Register (PME_EN) provides an enable for the PME output pins.
PME Pin Status Register (PME_STS) provides the status for the PME output pins.
See Section 23.0, "Runtime Registers," on page 150 for detailed register description
The following describes the behavior to the PME status bits for each event:
Each wake source has a bit in a PME Wake Status register which indicates that a wake source has occurred. The PME
Wake Status bits are “sticky“(unless otherwise stated in bit description in Section 23.0): once a status bit is set by the
wake-up event, the bit will remains set until cleared by writing a ‘1’ to the bit.
Each PME Wake Status register has a corresponding PME Wake Enable Register.
DS00002028B-page 46
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
SCH3223
If the corresponding bit in both in a PME Wake Status register and the PME Wake Enable Register are set then the PME
Pin Status Register bit is set. If both corresponding PME Pin Status and the PME Pin Enable Register bit are set then
the IO_PME pinIO_PME pin will asserted.
For the GPIO events, the polarity of the edge used to set the status bit and generate a PME is controlled by the polarity
bit of the GPIO control register. For non-inverted polarity (default) the status bit is set on the low-to-high edge. If the
EETI function is selected for a GPIO then both a high-to-low and a low-to-high edge will set the corresponding PME
status bits. Status bits are cleared on a write of '1'.
The PME Wake registers also include status and enable bits for the HW Monitor Block.
12.2
Enabling SMI Events onto the PME Pin
There is a bit in the PME Status Register 3 to show the status of the internal “group” SMI signal in the PME logic (if bit
5 of the SMI_EN2 register is set). This bit, DEVINT_STS, is at bit 3 of the PME_STS3 register. When this bit is clear,
the group SMI output is inactive. When bit is set, the group SMI output is active.The corresponding Wake-up enable bit
is DEVINT_EN, is at bit 3 of the PME_EN3 register.
Bit 5 of the SMI_EN2 register must also be set. This bit is cleared on a write of '1'.
12.3
PME Function Pin Control
The GP42/nIO_PME pin, when selected for the nIO_PME function, can be programmed to be active high or active low
via the polarity bit in the GP42 register. The output buffer type of the pin can be programmed to be open-drain or pushpull via bit 7 of the GP42 register. The nIO_PME pin function defaults to active low, open-drain output; however the
GP42/nIO_PME pin defaults to the GP42 function.
In the SCH3223 the nIO_PME pin can be programmed to be an open drain, active low, driver. The SCH3223 nIO_PME
pin are fully isolated from other external devices that might pull the signal low; i.e., the nIO_PME pin are capable of being
driven high externally by another active device or pull-up even when the SCH3223 VCC is grounded, providing VTR
power is active. The SCH3223 nIO_PME pin driver sinks 6mA at 0.55V max (see DC Specifications in the PCI Local
Bus Specification).

WATCHDOG TIMER
The SCH3223 contains a Watchdog Timer (WDT). The Watchdog Time-out status bit may be mapped to an interrupt
through the WDT_CFG Runtime Register.
Note:
Reset conditions from legacy Keyboard or Mouse interrupts cannot occur in the SCH3223.
The SCH3223 WDT has a programmable time-out ranging from 1 to 255 minutes with one minute resolution, or 1 to 255
seconds with 1 second resolution. The units of the WDT timeout value are selected via bit[7] of the WDT_TIMEOUT
register. The WDT time-out value is set through the WDT_VAL Runtime register. Setting the WDT_VAL register to 0x00
disables the WDT function (this is its power on default). Setting the WDT_VAL to any other non-zero value will cause
the WDT to reload and begin counting down from the value loaded. When the WDT count value reaches zero the
counter stops and sets the Watchdog time-out status bit in the WDT_CTRL Runtime register. Note: Regardless of the
current state of the WDT, the WDT time-out status bit can be directly set or cleared by the Host CPU.
Note 13-1
To set the WDT for time X minutes, the value of X+1 minutes must be programmed. To set the WDT
for X seconds, the value of X+1 seconds must be programmed.
The Watchdog Timer may be configured to generate an interrupt on the rising edge of the Time-out status bit. The WDT
interrupt is mapped to an interrupt channel through the WDT_CFG Runtime register. When mapped to an interrupt the
interrupt request pin reflects the value of the WDT time-out status bit.
The host may force a Watchdog time-out to occur by writing a "1" to bit 2 of the WDT_CTRL (Force WD Time-out) Runtime register. Writing a "1" to this bit forces the WDT count value to zero and sets bit 0 of the WDT_CTRL (Watchdog
Status). Bit 2 of the WDT_CTRL is self-clearing.
See the Section 23.0, "Runtime Registers" for description of these registers.

toggled. The current operation of the RESGEN watchdog timer is as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.

Feature enable/disable via a bit in a control register, accessible from the LPC. When enabled, the RESGEN WDT
output is selected as a source for the PWRGD_OUT signal.
Watchdog input bit in a the RESGEN register, WDT2_CTL, reset to 0 via VCC_POR, accessible from the LPC.
See Table 15-3.
The counter is reset by VCC_POR. The counter will remain reset as long as VCC_POR is active.
Counter will start when the following conditions are met:
a) VCC_POR is released AND
b) The WDT2_CTL bit is toggled from 0 to 1
If the host toggles the WDT2_CTL bit in the RESGEN control register, then the counter is reset to 1.6 seconds
and begins to count.
If the host does not toggle the WDT2_CTL bit in the RESGEN register by writing a 0 followed by a 1, before the
WDT has timed out, a 100 msec pulse is output.
After a timeout has occurred, a new timeout cycle does not begin until the host toggles the WDT2_CTL bit in
RESGEN register, by writing a 0 followed by a 1. This causes the counter to be reset to 1.6 seconds and begins
to count again

Front Panel Reset
The inputs, PWRGD_PS and nFPRST have hysteresis and are internally pulled to VTR through a 30uA resistor. The
nFPRST is debounced internally.
The nFPRST input has internal debounce circuitry that is valid on both edges for at least 16ms before the output is
changed. The 32.768kHz is used to meet the timing requirement. See Figure 17-2 for nFPRST debounce timing.
The actual minimum debounce time is 15.8msec

A/C Power Failure Recovery Control
The Power Failure Recovery Control logic, which is powered by VTR, is used to return a system to a pre-defined state
after a power failure (VTR=0V). The Power Control Register, which is powered by Vbat, contains two bits defined as
APF (After Power Failure). These bits are used to determine if the power supply should be powered on, powered off, or
set to the previous power state before VTR was removed as shown in Table 17-3.
Power Failure Recovery registers that are required to retain their state through a power failure are powered by Vbat.
Two modes may be used to determine the previous state:
Mode 1: (Suggested if PWR_OK is selected& enabled), which is enabled when Bit[3] PS_ON# sampling is disabled,
latches the current value of the PS_ON# pin when VCC, VTR, or PWR_OK (if enabled) transition to the inactive state,
whichever comes first. This value is latched into Bit[4] Previous State Bit located in the Power Recovery Register located
at offset 49h and is used to determine the state of the PS_ON# pin when VTR becomes active.
Mode 2 is enabled when Bit[3] PS_ON# sampling is enabled. To determine the previous power state, the PS_ON# pin
is sampled every 0.5 seconds while VTR is greater than ~2.2Volts. This sample is inserted into a battery powered 8-bit
shift register. The hardware will select a bit from the shift register depending on the value of the PS_ON# Previous State
Select bits located in the Runtime Register block at offset 53h to determine the state of the PS_ON# pin when VTR
becomes active. The value in the 8-bit shift register is latched into the PS_ON Register at offset 4Ah in the Runtime
Register block after VTR power is returned to the system, but before the internal shift register is cleared and activated.
The PS_ON Register is a battery powered register that is only reset on a Vbat POR.
Note 1: In Mode 2, when VTR falls below ~2.2Volts the current value of the PS_ON# pin will be latched into Bit [4]
Previous State Bit located in the Power Recovery Register at offset 49h. This bit will not be used by hardware, but may be read by software to determine the state of the PS_ON# pin when the power failure
occurred.
2: The time selected for the PS_ON# Previous State bits should be greater than or equal to the time it takes
for Resume Reset to go inactive to the time VTR is less than ~2.2 Volts.

If a power failure occurs and the Power Supply should be in the ON state, the Power Failure Recovery logic will assert
the PB_OUT# pin active low for a minimum pulse width of 0.5sec when VTR powers on. If the Power Supply should
remain off, the Power Failure Recovery logic will have no effect on the PB_OUT# pin. The following table defines the
possible states of PB_OUT# after a power failure for each configuration of the APF bits.

It is a requirement that the AFTERG3 bit located in the ICH controller be programmed to 1 for this AC
Recovery logic to be used.
PB_OUT# AND PS_ON#
The PB_OUT# and PS_ON# signals are used to control the state of the power supply.
The PB_OUT# signal will be asserted low if the PB_IN# is asserted and enabled, or if recovering from a power failure
and the power supply should be turned on. Refer to Figure 17-1. The following is a summary of these signals:
1.
2.
If the PB_IN# signal is enabled and asserted low, the PB_OUT# signal should be held low for as long as the
PB_IN# signal is held low.
If returning from a power failure and the power supply need to be turned on, a minimum of a ~0.5sec pulse is
asserted on the PB_OUT# pin. Note: This pulse width is less than 4 seconds, since a 4 second pulse width signifies a power button override event.
The PS_ON# signal is the inverse of the SLP_Sx# input signal. This signal goes directly to the Power Supply to turn the
supply on or off.
The SCH#11X indirectly controls the PS_ON# signal by asserting the PB_OUT#. PB_OUT# will be interpreted by an
external device (i.e., ICH controller), which will use this information to control the SLP_Sx# signal.
Note:
17.3.2
Two modes have been added to save the state of the PS_ON# pin in the event of a power failure. This
allows the system to recover from a power failure. See Section 17.3, "A/C Power Failure Recovery Control," on page 58.

Resume Reset Signal Generation
nRSMRST signal is the reset output for the ICH resume well. This signal is used as a power on reset signal for the ICH.
The SCH3223 detects when VTR voltage raises above VTRIP and provides a delay before generating the rising edge of
nRSMRST. See Section 26.6, "Resume Reset Signal Generation," on page 182 for a detailed description of how the
nRSMRST signal is generated.

LOW BATTERY DETECTION LOGIC
The low battery detection logic monitors the battery voltage to detect if this voltage drops below 2.2V and/or 1.2V. If the
device is powered by Vbat only and the battery voltage is below approximately 1.2V, a VBAT POR will occur upon a
VTR POR. If the device detects the battery voltage is below approximately 2.2V while it is powered by Vbat only or VTR
(VCC=0V) the LOW_BAT PME and SMI Status bits will be set upon a VCC POR. When the external diode voltage drop
is taken into account, these numbers become 1.5V and 2.5V, respectively.
The LOW_BAT PME event is indicated and enabled via the PME_STS6 and PME_EN6 registers.
The LOW_BAT SMI event is indicated and enabled via the SMI_STS1 and SMI_EN1 registers. See the Section 23.0,
"Runtime Registers," on page 150 section for a description of these registers.
The following figure illustrates external battery circuit.

VBAT POR
When VBAT drops below approximately 1.2V while both VTR and VCC are off, a VBAT POR will occur upon a VTR POR.
The LOW_BAT PME and SMI Status bits is set to ‘1’ upon a VBAT POR. Since the PME enable bit is not battery backed
up and is cleared on VTR POR, the VBAT POR event is not a wakeup event. When VCC returns, if the PME or SMI
enable bit (and other associated enable bits) are set, then the corresponding event will be generated.

18.2.1
Low Battery
UNDER BATTERY POWER
If the battery voltage drops below approximately 2.2V under battery power (VTR and VCC off) then the LOW_BAT PME
and SMI Status bits will be set upon a VCC POR. This is due to the fact that the LOW_BAT event signal is only active
upon a VCC POR, and therefore the low battery event is not a wakeup event. When VCC returns, if the PME or SMI
enable bit (and other associated enable bits) are set, then a corresponding event will be generated.
18.2.2
UNDER VTR POWER
If the battery voltage drops below approximately 2.2V under VTR power (VCC off) then the LOW_BAT PME and SMI
Status bits will be set upon a VCC POR. The corresponding enable bit (and other associated enable bits) must be set
to generate a PME or an SMI.
If the PME enable bit (and other associated enable bits) were set prior to VCC going away, then the low battery event
will generate a PME when VCC becomes active again. It will not generate a PME under VTR power and will not cause
a wakeup event.

Power Supply
The HWM block is powered by standby power, HVTR, to retain the register settings during a main power (sleep) cycle.
The HWM block does not operate when VCC=0 and HVTR is on. In this case, the H/W Monitoring logic will be held in
reset and no monitoring or fan control will be provided. Following a VCC POR, the H/W monitoring logic will begin to
operate based on programmed parameters and limits.
The fan tachometer input pins are protected against floating inputs and the PWM output pins are held low when VCC=0.

All the registers in the Hardware Monitor Block, except the reading registers, reset to a default value when VTR power
is applied to the block. The default state of the register is shown in the Register Summary Table located in Table 21-1

VCC POWER-ON RESET
The PWRGD_PS signal is used by the hardware-monitoring block to determine when a VCC POR has occurred. The
PWRGD_PS signal indicates that the VCC power supply is within operation range and the 14.318MHz clock source is
valid.
Note:
Throughout the description of the hardware monitoring block VCC POR and PWRGD_PS are used interchangeably, since the PWRGD_PS is used to generate a VCC POR.
All the HWM registers will retain their value through a sleep cycle unless otherwise specified. If a VCC POR is preceded

20.5
Clocks
The hardware monitor logic operates on a 90kHz nominal clock frequency derived from the 14MHz clock input to the
SIO block. The 14MHz clock source is also used to derive the high PWM frequencies.
20.6
Input Monitoring
The SCH3223 device’s monitoring function is started by writing a ‘1’ to the START bit in the Ready/Lock/Start Register
(0x40). Measured values from the temperature sensors are stored in Reading Registers. The values in the reading registers can be accessed via the LPC interface. These values are compared to the programmed limits in the Limit Registers. The out-of-limit and diode fault conditions are stored in the Interrupt Status Registers.
Note:
20.7
All limit and parameter registers must be set before the START bit is set to ‘1’. Once the start bit is set,
these registers become read-only.
Monitoring Modes
The Hardware Monitor Block supports two Monitoring modes: Continuous Mode and Cycle Mode. These modes are
selected using bit 1 of the Special Function Register (7Ch). The following subsections contain a description of these
monitoring modes.
The time to complete a conversion cycle depends upon the number of inputs in the conversion sequence to be measured and the amount of averaging per input, which is selected using the AVG[2:0] bits in the Special Function register
(see the Special Function Register, 7Ch).
For each mode, there are four options for the number of measurements that are averaged for each temperature reading.
These options are selected using bits[7:5] of the Special Function Register (7Ch). These bits are defined as follows:
DS00002028B-page 68

Bits [7:5] AVG[2:0]
The AVG[2:0] bits determine the amount of averaging for each of the measurements that are performed by the hardware
monitor before the reading registers are updated (Table 20-1). The AVG[2:0] bits are priority encoded where the most
significant bit has highest priority. For example, when the AVG2 bit is asserted, 32 averages will be performed for each
measurement before the reading registers are updated regardless of the state of the AVG[1:0] bits.

CONTINUOUS MONITORING MODE
In the continuous monitoring mode, the sampling and conversion process is performed continuously for each temperature reading after the Start bit is set high. The time for each temperature reading is shown above for each measurement
option.
The continuous monitoring function is started by doing a write to the Ready/Lock/Start Register, setting the START bit
(Bit 0) high. The part then performs a “round robin” sampling of the inputs, in the order shown below (see Table 20-2).
Sampling of all values occurs in a nominal 150.8 ms (default - see Table 20-2).
TABLE 20-2:
ADC CONVERSION SEQUENCE

When the continuous monitoring function is started, it cycles through each measurement in sequence, and it continuously loops through the sequence approximately once every 150.8 ms (default - see Table 20-2). Each measured value
is compared to values stored in the Limit registers. When the measured value violates the programmed limit the Hardware Monitor Block will set a corresponding status bit in the Interrupt Status Registers.
If auto fan option is selected, the hardware will adjust the operation of the fans accordingly.
The results of the sampling and conversions can be found in the Reading Registers and are available at any time.
20.7.2
CYCLE MONITORING MODE
In cycle monitoring mode, the part completes all sampling and conversions, then waits approximately one second to
repeat the process. It repeats the sampling and conversion process typically every 1.151 seconds (1.3 sec max - default
averaging enabled). The sampling and conversion of each temperature reading is performed once every monitoring
cycle. This is a power saving mode.
The cycle monitoring function is started by doing a write to the Ready/Lock/Start Register, setting the Start bit (Bit 0)
high. The part then performs a “round robin” sampling of the inputs, in the order shown above.
When the cycle monitoring function is started, it cycles through each measurement in sequence, and it produces a converted temperature reading for each input. The state machine waits approximately one second before repeating this
process. Each measured value is compared to values stored in the Limit registers. When the measured value violates
(or is equal to) the programmed limit the Hardware Monitor Block will set a corresponding status bit in the Interrupt Status
Registers.

If auto fan option is selected, the hardware will adjust the operation of the fans accordingly.
The results of each sampling and conversion can be found in the Reading Registers and are available at any time, however, they are only updated once per conversion cycle.
20.8
Interrupt Status Registers
The Hardware Monitor Block contains two primary interrupt status registers (ISRs):
• Interrupt Status Register 1 (41h)
• Interrupt Status Register 2 (42h)
There is also a secondary set of interrupt status registers:
• Interrupt Status Register 1 - Secondary (A5h)
• Interrupt Status Register 2 - Secondary (A6h)
Note 1: The status events in the primary set of interrupt status registers is mapped to a PME bit, an SMI bit, to Serial
IRQ (See Interrupt Event on Serial IRQ on page 73), and to the nHWM_INT pin.
2: The nHWM_INT pin is deasserted when all of the bits in the primary ISRs (41h, 42h) are cleared. The secondary ISRs do not affect the nHWM_INT pin.
3: The primary and secondary ISRs share all of the interrupt enable bits for each of the events.
These registers are used to reflect the state of all temperature and fan violation of limit error conditions and diode fault
conditions that the Hardware Monitor Block monitors.
When an error occurs during the conversion cycle, its corresponding bit is set (if enabled) in its respective interrupt status register. The bit remains set until the register bit is written to ‘1’ by software, at which time the bit will be cleared to
‘0’ if the associated error event no longer violates the limit conditions or if the diode fault condition no longer exists. Writing ‘1’ to the register bit will not cause a bit to be cleared if the source of the status bit remains active.
These registers default to 0x00 on a VCC POR, VTR POR, and Initialization. (See Resetting the SCH3223 Hardware
Monitor Block on page 67.)
The following section defines the Interrupt Enable Bits that correspond to the Interrupt Status registers listed above. Setting or clearing these bits affects the operation of the Interrupt Status bits.
20.8.1
INTERRUPT ENABLE BITS
Each interrupt event can be enabled into the interrupt status registers. See the figure below for the status and enable
bits used to control the interrupt bits and nHWM_INT pin. Note that a status bit will not be set if the individual enable bit
is not set.
The following is a list of the Interrupt Enable registers:
• Interrupt Enable Register - Fan Tachs (80h)
• Interrupt Enable Register - Temp (82h)
Note:
Clearing the individual enable bits will clear the corresponding individual status bit.
Clearing the individual enable bits. There are two cases and in both cases it is not possible to change the individual
interrupt enable while the start bit is set.
1.
2.
The interrupt status bit will never be set when the individual interrupt enable is cleared. Here the interrupt status
bit will not get set when the start bit is set, regardless of whether the limits are violated during a measurement.
If an interrupt status bit had been set from a previous condition, clearing the start bit and then clearing the individual interrupt enable bit will not clear the associated interrupts status bit immediately. It will be cleared when
the start bit is set, when the associated reading register is updated.

Note 1: The Primary Interrupt Status registers, and the Top Temp Status register may be used to generate a HWM
Interrupt event (HWM_Event). A HWM Interrupt Event may be used to generate a PME, SMI, Serial IRQ, or
nHWM_INT event. Figure 20-3, "Interrupt Control" shows the Interrupt Status registers generating an interrupt event. To see how the Top Temp Status register generates a Top_Temp_Event see FIGURE 20-14:
AMTA Interrupt Mapping on page 92.
2: The diode fault bits are not mapped directly to the nHWM_INT pin. A diode fault condition forces the diode
reading register to a value of 80h, which will generate a Diode Error condition. See section Diode Fault on
page 72.
20.8.2
DIODE FAULT
The SCH3223 Chip automatically sets the associated diode fault bit to 1 when any of the following conditions occur on
the Remote Diode pins:
•
•
•
•
•
The positive and negative terminal are an open circuit
Positive terminal is connected to VCC
Positive terminal is connected to ground
Negative terminal is connected to VCC
Negative terminal is connected to ground
The occurrence of a fault will cause 80h to be loaded into the associated reading register, except for the case when the
negative terminal is connected to ground. A temperature reading of 80h will cause the corresponding diode error bit to
be set. This will cause the nHWM_INT pin to become active if the individual, group (TEMP), and global enable (INTEN)
bits are set.
Note 1: The individual remote diode enable bits and the TEMP bit are located in the Interrupt Enable Register 1
(7Eh). The INTEN bit is located in bit[2] of Special Function Register (7Ch).
2: When 80h is loaded into the Remote Diode Reading Register the PWM output(s) controlled by the zone
associated with that diode input will be forced to full on. See Thermal Zones on page 75.
If the diode is disabled, the fault bit in the interrupt status register will not be set. In this case, the occurrence of a fault
will cause 00h to be loaded into the associated reading register. The limits must be programmed accordingly to prevent
unwanted fan speed changes based on this temperature reading. If the diode is disabled and a fault condition does not
exist on the diode pins, then the associated reading register will contain a “valid” reading (e.g. A reading that is not produced by a fault condition.).
20.9
Interrupt Signal
The hardware monitoring interrupt signal, which is used to indicate out-of-limit temperature, and/or fan errors, can be
generated via a dedicated pin (nHWM_INT) or through PME Status bits or SMI Status Bits located in the Runtime Register block.
To enable temperature event and/or fan events onto the nHWM_INT pin or the PME status bits or SMI status bits, the
following group enable bits must be set:
• To enable out-of-limit temperature events set bit[0] of the Interrupt Enable - Temp register (82h) to ‘1’.
• To enable Fan tachometer error events set bit[0] of the Interrupt Enable - Fan Tachs register (80h) to ‘1’.
20.9.1
INTERRUPT PIN (NHWM_INT)
The nHWM_INT function is used as an interrupt output for out-of-limit temperature and/or fan errors.
• The nHWM_INT signal is on pin 114.
• To enable the interrupt pin to go active, set bit 2 of the Special Function Register (7Ch) to ‘1’.
Note:
If the nHWM_INT pin is not enabled the pin will be tristate if the nHWM_INT function is selected on the pin.
See FIGURE 20-3: on page 71. The following description assumes that the interrupt enable bits for all events are set to
enable the interrupt status bits to be set and no events are being masked.
If the internal or remote temperature reading violates the low or high temperature limits, nHWM_INT will be forced active
low (if all the corresponding enable bits are set: individual enable bits (D1_EN, D2_EN, and/or AMB_EN), group enable
bit (TEMP_EN) and the global enable bit (INTEN)). This pin will remain low while the Internal Temp Error bit or one or
both of the Remote Temp Error bits in Interrupt Status 1 Register is set and the corresponding enable bit(s) are set.
DS00002028B-page 72
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
SCH3223
The nHWM_INT pin will not become active low as a result of the remote diode fault bits becoming set. However, the
occurrence of a fault will cause 80h to be loaded into the associated reading register, which will cause the corresponding
diode error bit to be set. This will cause the nHWM_INT pin to become active if enabled.
The nHWM_INT pin can be enabled to indicate fan errors. Bit[0] of the Interrupt Enable 2 (Fan Tachs) register (80h) is
used to enable this option. This pin will remain low while the associated fan error bit in the Interrupt Status Register 2 is
set.
The nHWM_INT pin will remain low while any bit is set in any of the Interrupt Status Registers. Reading the interrupt
status registers will cause the logic to attempt to clear the status bits; however, the status bits will not clear if the interrupt
stimulus is still active. The interrupt enable bit (Special Function Register bit[2]) should be cleared by software before
reading the interrupt status registers to insure that the nHWM_INT pin will be re-asserted while an interrupt event is
active, when the INT_EN bit is written to ‘1’ again.
The nHWM_INT pin may only become active while the monitor block is operational.
20.9.2
INTERRUPT AS A PME EVENT
The hardware monitoring interrupt signal is routed to the SIO PME block. For a description of these bits see the section
defining PME events. This signal is unaffected by the nHWM_INT pin enable (INT_EN) bit (See FIGURE 20-3: Interrupt
Control on page 71.)
The THERM PME status bit is located in the PME_STS1 Runtime Register at offset 04h located in the SIO block.
When a temperature or fan tachometer event causes a status bit to be set, the THERM PME status bits will be set as
long as the corresponding group enable bit is set.
The enable bit is located in the PME_EN1 register at offset 08h.
20.9.3
INTERRUPT AS AN SMI EVENT
The hardware monitoring interrupt signal is routed to the SIO SMI block. For a description of these bits see the section
defining SMI events. This signal is unaffected by the nHWM_INT pin enable (INT_EN) bit (See FIGURE 20-3: Interrupt
Control on page 71.)
The THERM SMI status bit is located in the SMI_STS5 Runtime Register at offset 14h located in the SIO block.
When a temperature or fan tachometer event causes a status bit to be set, the THERM SMI status bits will be set as
long as the corresponding group enable bit is set.
The enable bit is located in the SMI_EN5 register at offset 1Ah.
The SMI is enabled onto the SERIRQ (IRQ2) via bit 6 of the SMI_EN2 register at 17h.
20.9.4
INTERRUPT EVENT ON SERIAL IRQ
The hardware monitoring interrupt signal is routed to the Serial IRQ logic. This signal is unaffected by the nHWM_INT
pin enable (INT_EN) bit (See FIGURE 20-3: Interrupt Control on page 71.)
This operation is configured via the Interrupt Select register (0x70) in Logical Device A. This register allows the selection
of any serial IRQ frame to be used for the HWM nHWM_INT interrupt (SERIRQ9 slot will be used). See Interrupt Event
on Serial IRQ on page 73.
20.10 Low Power Mode
bit The hardware monitor has two modes of operation: Monitoring and Sleep. When the START bit, located in Bit[0] of
the Ready/Lock/Start register (0x40), is set to zero the hardware monitor is in Sleep Mode. When this bit is set to one
the hardware monitor is fully functional and monitors the analog inputs to this device.
bit Sleep mode is a low power mode in which bias currents are on and the internal oscillator is on, but the A/D converter
and monitoring cycle are turned off. Serial bus communication is still possible with any register in the Hardware Monitor
Block while in this low-power mode.
Note 1: In Sleep Mode the PWM Pins are held high forcing the PWM pins to 100% duty cycle (256/256).
2: The START a bit cannot be modified when the LOCK bit is set.

20.11 Temperature Measurement
Temperatures are measured internally by bandgap temperature sensor and externally using two sets of diode sensor
pins (for measuring two external temperatures). See subsections below.
Note:
20.11.1
The temperature sensing circuitry for the two remote diode sensors is calibrated for a 3904 type diode.
INTERNAL TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
Internal temperature can be measured by bandgap temperature sensor. The measurement is converted into digital format by internal ADC. This data is converted in two’s complement format since both negative and positive temperature
can be measured. This value is stored in Internal Temperature Reading register (26h) and compared to the Temperature
Limit registers (50h – 51h). If this value violates the programmed limits in the Internal High Temperature Limit register
(51h) and the Internal Low Temperature Limit register (50h) the corresponding status bit in Interrupt Status Register 1
is set.
If auto fan option is selected, the hardware will adjust the operation of the fans accordingly. See the section titled Auto
Fan Control Operating Mode on page 77.
20.11.2
EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT
The Hardware Monitor Block also provides a way to measure two external temperatures using diode sensor pins
(Remote x+ and Remote x-). The value is stored in the register (25h) for Remote1+ and Remote1- pins. The value is
stored in the Remote Temperature Reading register (27h) for Remote2+ and Remote2- pins. If these values violate the
programmed limits in the associated limit registers, then the corresponding Remote Diode 1 (D1) or Remote Diode 2
(D2) status bits will be set in the Interrupt Status Register 1.
If auto fan option is selected, the hardware will adjust the operation of the fans accordingly. See Auto Fan Control Operating Mode on page 77.
There are Remote Diode (1 or 2) Fault status bits in Interrupt Status Register 2 (42h), which, when one, indicate a short
or open-circuit on remote thermal diode inputs (Remote x+ and Remote x-). Before a remote diode conversion is
updated, the status of the remote diode is checked. In the case of a short or open-circuit on the remote thermal diode
inputs, the value in the corresponding reading register will be forced to 80h. Note that this will cause the associated
remote diode limit exceeded status bit to be set (i.e. Remote Diode x Limit Error bits (D1 and D2) are located in the
Interrupt Status 1 Register at register address 41h).
The temperature change is computed by measuring the change in Vbe at two different operating points of the diode to
which the Remote x+ and Remote x- pins are connected. But accuracy of the measurement also depends on non-ideality factor of the process the diode is manufactured on.
20.11.3
TEMPERATURE DATA FORMAT
Temperature data can be read from the three temperature registers:
• Internal Temp Reading register (26h)
• Remote Diode 1 Temp Reading register (25h)
• Remote Diode 2 Temp Reading register (27h)
The following table shows several examples of the format of the temperature digital data, represented by an 8-bit, two’s

20.12 Thermal Zones
Each temperature measurement input is assigned to a Thermal Zone to control the PWM outputs in Auto Fan Control
mode. These zone assignments are as follows:
• Zone 1 = Remote Diode 1 (Processor)
• Zone 2 = Ambient Temperature Sensor
• Zone 3 = Remote Diode 2
The auto fan control logic uses the zone temperature reading to control the duty cycle of the PWM outputs.
The following sections describe the various fan control and monitoring modes in the part.
20.13 Fan Control
This Fan Control device is capable of driving multiple DC fans via three PWM outputs and monitoring up to three fans
equipped with tachometer outputs in either Manual Fan Control mode or in Auto Fan Control mode. The three fan control
outputs (PWMx pins) are controlled by a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) scheme. The three pins dedicated to monitoring the operation of each fan are the FANTACH[1:3] pins. Fans equipped with Fan Tachometer outputs may be connected to these pins to monitor the speed of the fan.
20.13.1
LIMIT AND CONFIGURATION REGISTERS
At power up, all the registers are reset to their default values and PWM[1:3] are set to “Fan always on Full” mode. Before
initiating the monitoring cycle for either manual or auto mode, the values in the limit and configuration registers should
be set.
The limit and configuration registers are:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•

•
•
Registers 54h – 5Bh: TACHx Minimum
Registers 5Fh – 61h: Zone x Range/FANx Frequency

function are listed. All steps may not be necessary if default values are acceptable. Regardless of all changes made by
the BIOS to the limit and parameter registers during configuration, the SCH3223 will continue to operate based on
default values until the Start bit, in the Ready/Lock/Start register, is set. Once the Start bit is set, the SCH3223 will operate according to the values that were set by BIOS in the limit and parameter registers.

20.13.3
PWM FAN SPEED CONTROL
The following description applies to PWM1, PWM2, and PWM3.
Note:
The PWM output pins are held low when VCC=0. The PWM pins will be forced to “spinup” when PWRGD_PS goes active. See “Spin Up” on page 80.
The PWM pin reflects a duty cycle that is determined based on 256 PWM duty cycle intervals. The minimum duty cycle
is “off”, when the pin is low, or “full on” when the pin is high for 255 intervals and low for 1 interval. The INVERT bit (bit
4 of the PWMx Configuration registers at 80h-82h) can be used to invert the PWM output, however, the default operation
(following a VCC POR) of the part is based on the PWM pin active high to turn the fans “on”. When the INVERT bit is
set, as long as power is not removed from the part, the inversion of the pin will apply thereafter.
When describing the operation of the PWMs, the terms “Full on” and “100% duty cycle” means that the PWM output will
be high for 255 clocks and low for 1 clock (INVERT bit = 0). The exception to this is during fan spin-up when the PWM
pin will be forced high for the duration of the spin-up time.
The SCH3223 can control each of the PWM outputs in one of two modes:
• Manual Fan Control Operating Mode: software controls the speed of the fans by directly programming the PWM
duty cycle.
• Auto Fan Control Mode: the device automatically adjusts the duty cycle of the PWM outputs based on temperature, according to programmed parameters.
These modes are described in sections that follow.
20.13.3.1
Manual Fan Control Operating Mode (Test Mode)
When operating in Manual Fan Control Operating Mode, software controls the speed of the fans by directly programming the PWM duty cycle. The operation of the fans can be monitored based on reading the temperature and tachometer reading registers and/or by polling the interrupt status registers. The SCH3223 offers the option of generating an
interrupt indicated by the nHWM_INT signal.
To control the PWM outputs in manual mode:
• To set the mode to operate in manual mode, write ‘111’ to bits[7:5] Zone/Mode, located in Registers 5Ch-5Eh:
PWMx Configuration.
• The speed of the fan is controlled by the duty cycle set for that PWM output. The duty cycle must be programmed
in Registers 30h-32h: Current PWM Duty
To monitor the fans:
Fans equipped with Tachometer outputs can be monitored via the FANTACHx input pins. See Section 20.14.2, "Fan
Speed Monitoring," on page 93.
If an out-of-limit condition occurs, the corresponding status bit will be set in the Interrupt Status registers. Setting this
status bit will generate an interrupt signal on the nHWM_INT pin (if enabled). Software must handle the interrupt condition and modify the operation of the device accordingly. Software can evaluate the operation of the Fan Control device
through the Temperature and Fan Tachometer Reading registers.
When in manual mode, the current PWM duty cycle registers can be written to adjust the speed of the fans, when the
start bit is set. These registers are not writable when the lock bit is set.
Note:
20.13.3.2
The PWMx Current Duty Cycle register is implemented as two separate registers: a read-only and a writeonly. When a value is written to this register in manual mode there will be a delay before the programmed
value can be read back by software. The hardware updates the read-only PWMx Current Duty Cycle register on the beginning of a PWM cycle. If Ramp Rate Control is disabled, the delay to read back the programmed value will be from 0 seconds to 1/(PWM frequency) seconds. Typically, the delay will be
1/(2*PWM frequency) seconds.
Auto Fan Control Operating Mode
The SCH3223 implements automatic fan control. In Auto Fan Mode, this device automatically adjusts the PWM duty
cycle of the PWM outputs, according to the flow chart on the following page (see FIGURE 20-4: Automatic Fan Control
Flow Diagram on page 78).
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00002028B-page 77
SCH3223
PWM outputs are assigned to a thermal zone based on the PWMx Configuration registers (see Thermal Zones on page
75). It is possible to have more than one PWM output assigned to a thermal zone. For example, PWM outputs 2 and 3,
connected to two chassis fans, may both be controlled by thermal zone 2. At any time, if the temperature of a zone
exceeds its absolute limit, all PWM outputs go to 100% duty cycle to provide maximum cooling to the system (except
those fans that are disabled or in manual mode).
It is possible to have a single fan controlled by multiple zones, turning on when either zone requires cooling based on
its individual settings.
If the start bit is one, the Auto Fan Control block will evaluate the temperature in the zones configured for each Fan in
a round robin method. The Auto Fan Control block completely evaluates the zones for all three fans in a maximum of
0.25sec.

When in Auto Fan Control Operating Mode the hardware controls the fans directly based on monitoring of temperature
and speed.
To control the fans:
1.
Set the minimum temperature that will turn the fans on. This value is programmed in Registers 67h-69h: Zone x
Low Temp Limit (Auto Fan Mode Only).
The speed of the fan is controlled by the duty cycle set for that device. The duty cycle for the minimum fan speed must
be programmed in Registers 64h-66h: PWMx Minimum Duty Cycle. This value corresponds to the speed of the fan when
the temperature reading is equal to the minimum temperature LIMIT setting. As the actual temperature increases and
is above the Zone LIMIT temperature and below the Absolute Temperature Limit, the PWM will be determined by a linear
function based on the Auto Fan Speed Range bits in Registers 5Fh-61h.
The maximum speed of the fan for the linear autofan function is programmed in the PWMx Max registers (0D1h, 0D6h,
0DBh). When the temperature reaches the top of the linear fan function for the sensor (Zone x Low Temp Limit plus
Temperature Range) the fan will be at the PWM maximum duty cycle.
Set the absolute temperature for each zone in Registers 6Ah-6Ch: Zone x Temp Absolute Limit (Auto Fan Mode only).
If the actual temperature is equal to or exceeds the absolute temperature in one or more of the associated zones, all
Fans operating in auto mode will be set to Full on, regardless of which zone they are operating in (except those that are
disabled or configured for Manual Mode). Note: fans can be disabled via the PWMx Configuration registers and the
absolute temperature safety feature can be disabled by writing 80h into the Zone x Temp Absolute Limit registers.
To set the mode to operate in auto mode, set Bits[7:5] Zone/Mode, located in Registers 5Ch-5Eh: PWM Configuration
Bits[7:5]=’000’ for PWM on Zone 1; Bits[7:5]=’001’ for PWM on Zone 2; Bits[7:5]=’010’ for PWM on Zone 3. If the “Hottest” option is chosen (101 or 110), then the PWM output is controlled by the zone that results in the highest PWM duty
cycle value.
Note 1: Software can be alerted of an out-of-limit condition by the nHWM_INT pin if an event status bit is set and
the event is enabled and the interrupt function is enabled onto the nHWM_INT pin.
2: Software can monitor the operation of the Fans through the Fan Tachometer Reading registers and by the
PWM x Current PWM duty registers. It can also monitor current temperature readings through the Temperature Limit Registers if hardware monitoring is enabled.
3: Fan control in auto mode is implemented without any input from external processor .
In auto “Zone” mode, the speed is adjusted automatically as shown in the figure below. Fans are assigned to a zone(s).
It is possible to have more than one fan assigned to a thermal zone or to have multiple zones assigned to one fan.
FIGURE 20-5: on page 80 shows the control for the auto fan algorithm. The part allows a minimum temperature to be
set, below which the fan will run at minimum speed. The minimum speed is programmed in the PWMx Minimum Duty
cycle registers (64h-66h) and may be zero. A temperature range is specified over which the part will automatically adjust
the fan speed. The fan will go to a duty cycle computed by the auto fan algorithm. As the temperature rises, the duty
cycle will increase until the fan is running at full-speed when the temperature reaches the minimum plus the range value.
The effect of this is a temperature feedback loop, which will cause the temperature to reach equilibrium between the
minimum temperature and the minimum temperature plus the range. Provided that the fan has adequate cooling capacity for all environmental and power dissipation conditions, this system will maintain the temperature within acceptable
limits, while allowing the fan to run slower (and quieter) when less cooling is required.

Spin Up
When a fan is being started from a stationary state (PWM duty cycle =00h), the part will cause the fan to “spin up” by
going to 100% duty cycle for a programmable amount of time to overcome the inertia of the fan (i.e., to get the fan turning). Following this spin up time, the fan will go to the duty cycle computed by the auto fan algorithm.
During spin-up, the PWM duty cycle is reported as 0%.
To limit the spin-up time and thereby reduce fan noise, the part uses feedback from the tachometers to determine when
each fan has started spinning properly. The following tachometer feedback is included into the auto fan algorithm during
spin-up.
Auto Fan operation during Spin Up:
The PWM goes to 100% duty cycle until the tachometer reading register is below the minimum limit (see Figure 20-6),
or the spin-up time expires, whichever comes first. This causes spin-up to continue until the tachometer enters the valid
count range, unless the spin up time expires. If the spin up expires before the tachometer enters the valid range, an
interrupt status bit will be set once spin-up expires. Note that more than one tachometer may be associated with a PWM,
in which case all tachometers associated with a PWM must be in the valid range for spin-up to end.

Note: When Spin Up Reduction is enabled (SUREN), the Spin Up time will be less than

a PWM output are operating within the programmed limits or the Spin Up time expires,
whichever comes first, the PWM output is reduced to the calculated duty cycle.
This feature defaults to enabled; it can be disabled by clearing bit 4 of the Configuration register (7Fh). If disabled, the
all fans go to 100% duty cycle for the duration of their associated spin up time. Note that the Tachometer x minimum
registers must be programmed to a value less than FFFFh in order for the spin up reduction to work properly.
Note 1: The tachometer reading register always gives the actual reading of the tachometer input.
2: No interrupt bits are set during spin-up.
20.13.3.4
Hottest Option
If the “Hottest” option is chosen (101 or 110), then the fan is controlled by the limits and parameters associated with the
zone that requires the highest PWM duty cycle value, as calculated by the auto fan algorithm.
20.13.3.5
Ramp Rate Control Logic
The Ramp Rate Control Logic, if enabled, limits the amount of change in the PWM duty cycle over a specified period of
time. This period of time is programmable in the Ramp Rate Control registers located at offsets 62h and 63h.
20.13.3.5.1
Ramp Rate Control Disabled: (default)
The Auto Fan Control logic determines the duty cycle for a particular temperature. If PWM Ramp Rate Control is disabled, the PWM output will be set to this calculated duty cycle.
20.13.3.5.2
Ramp Rate Control Enabled:
If PWM Ramp Rate Control is enabled, the PWM duty cycle will Ramp up or down to the new duty cycle computed by
the auto fan control logic at the programmed Ramp Rate. The PWM Ramp Rate Control logic compares the current duty
cycle computed by the auto fan logic with the previous ramp rate duty cycle. If the current duty cycle is greater than the
previous ramp rate duty cycle the ramp rate duty cycle is incremented by ‘1’ at the programmed ramp rate until it is
greater than or equal to the current calculated duty cycle. If the current duty cycle is less than the previous ramp rate
duty cycle, the ramp rate duty cycle is decremented by ‘1’ until it is less than or equal to the current duty cycle. If the
current PWM duty cycle is equal to the calculated duty cycle the PWM output will remain unchanged.
Internally, the PWM Ramp Rate Control Logic will increment/decrement the internal PWM Duty cycle by ‘1’ at a rate
determined by the Ramp Rate Control Register (see Table 20-4). The actual duty cycle output is changed once per the
period of the PWM output, which is determined by the frequency of the PWM output. (See FIGURE 20-7: Illustration of
PWM Ramp Rate Control on page 83.)
• If the period of the PWM output is less than the step size created by the PWM Ramp Rate, the PWM output will
hold the duty cycle constant until the Ramp Rate logic increments/decrements the duty cycle by ‘1’ again. For
example, if the PWM frequency is 87.7Hz (1/87.7Hz = 11.4msec) and the PWM Step time is 206msec, the PWM
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00002028B-page 81
SCH3223
duty cycle will be held constant for a minimum of 18 periods (206/11.4 = 18.07) until the Ramp Logic increments/decrements the actual PWM duty cycle by ‘1’.
• If the period of the PWM output is greater than the step size created by the PWM Ramp Rate, the ramp rate logic
will force the PWM output to increment/decrement the actual duty cycle in increments larger than 1/255. For
example, if the PWM frequency is 11Hz (1/11Hz = 90.9msec) and the PWM Step time is 5msec, the PWM duty
cycle output will be incremented 18 or 19 out of 255 (i.e., 90.9/5 = 18.18) until it reaches the calculated duty cycle.
Note: The step size may be less if the calculated duty cycle minus the actual duty cycle is less than 18.
Note:
The calculated PWM Duty cycle reacts immediately to a change in the temperature reading value. The temperature reading value may be updated once in 105.8msec (default) (see Table 20-2, “ADC Conversion
Sequence,” on page 69). The internal PWM duty cycle generated by the Ramp Rate control logic gradually
ramps up/down to the calculated duty cycle at a rate pre-determined by the value programmed in the PWM
Ramp Rate Control bits. The PWM output latches the internal duty cycle generated by the Ramp Rate Control Block every 1/(PWM frequency) seconds to determine the actual duty cycle of the PWM output pin.
PWM Output Transition from OFF to ON
When the calculated PWM Duty cycle generated by the auto fan control logic transitions from the ‘OFF’ state to the ‘ON’
state (i.e., Current PWM duty cycle>00h), the internal PWM duty cycle in the Ramp Rate Control Logic is initialized to
the calculated duty cycle without any ramp time and the PWMx Current Duty Cycle register is set to this value. The PWM
output will latch the current duty cycle value in the Ramp Rate Control block to control the PWM output.
PWM Output Transition from ON to OFF
Each PWM output has a control bit to determine if the PWM output will transition immediately to the OFF state (default)
or if it will gradually step down to Off at the programmed Ramp Rate. These control bits (SZEN) are located in the PWMx
Options registers at offsets 94h-96h.

Note 1: The PWM Duty Cycle latches the Ramping Duty Cycle on the rising edge of the PWM output.
2: The calculated duty cycle, ramping duty cycle, and the PWM output duty cycle are asynchronous to each
other, but are all synchronized to the internal 90kHz clock source.
It should be noted that the actual duty cycle on the pin is created by the PWM Ramp Rate Control block and latched on
the rising edge of the PWM output. Therefore, the current PWM duty cycle may lag the PWM Calculated Duty Cycle.
20.13.4
OPERATION OF PWM PIN FOLLOWING A POWER CYCLE
This device has special features to control the level and operation of the PWM pin following a Power Cycle. These features are PWM Clamping and Forced Spinup.
20.13.4.1
PWM Clamp
The PWM pin has the option to be held low for 0 seconds or 2 seconds following a VCC POR. This feature is selectable
by a Vbat powered register bit in the SIO Runtime Register block.
Bit[7] of the DBLCLICK register at offset 5Bh is used to select the 0 or 2 second option.
This bit is defined as follows:
• BIT[3] ZERO_SPINUP
- 1 = zero delay for spin up
- 0 = delay spinup by 2 seconds (default)
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00002028B-page 83
SCH3223
Following PWRGD_PS being asserted the PWM Pin will be held low until either the TRDY signal is asserted or the delay
counter expires, whichever comes first. The delay counter performs two functions when set to the 2 second delay option.
1.
2.
Following a VTR POR & VCC POR, the BIOS has up to 2 seconds to program the hwm registers and enable
autofan before the fans are turned on full. This is a noise reduction feature
Following a VCC POR only (return from sleep) the hardware requires 150.8 ms (default - see Table 20-2) to load
the temperature reading registers. The TRDY signal is used to indicate when these values have been updated.
TRDY is reset to zero on a VCC POR, which forces the Fans to be set to FFh. If the delay counter is enabled for
up to a 2 second delay, the PWMs will be held low until the reading registers are valid. Once the registers are
updated, the hardware will initiate a forced spinup (if enabled) and enter automode. See Forced Spinup on page
84.
The timing diagrams in the section titled Timing Diagrams for PWM Clamp and Forced Spinup Operation on page 85
show the effect of the 2 second PWM hold-off counter on the PWM pin.
20.13.4.2
Forced Spinup
Spinup is a feature of the auto fan control mode. Any time the PWM pin transitions from a 0% duty cycle to a non zero
duty cycle the PWM pin will be forced high for the duration of spinup or until the fan are spinning within normal operating
parameters as determined by the Tach Limit registers. See Spin Up on page 80 for a more detailed description of
spinup. This feature can also be initiated by the PWRGD_PS signal transitioning high following a main (VCC) power
cycle if the TRDY bit is set to one before the PWM Clamp is released.
Note 1: In this device, a forced spinup will be generated the first time TRDY is detected as a ‘1’ following the PWRGD_PS signal transitioning from low to high (if enabled). To enable this feature, set bit[3] of the PWMx Configuration registers to one. These registers are located at offsets 5Ch, 5Dh, and 5Eh.
2: If the TRDY bit is ‘1’ and cleared by software after being set to and then set again while the PWRGD_PS
signal is high, the act of TRDY being asserted will not cause a forced spinup event.
• The duration of the forced spin-up time is controlled by the SPIN[2:0] bits located in the PWM x Configuration registers (5Ch - 5Eh). The forced spinup enable bit is located in Bit[3] SUENx of the PWMx Configuration registers.
Forced Spinup defaults to disabled on a VTR POR.
20.13.4.2.1
Start of Spin-up on main (VCC) power cycle
The PWM spin-up supports the scenario where the part is powered by VTR and the fans are powered by a main power
rail. If the start bit is not cleared on a main power cycle, then the PWM will remain at a level that may not start the fan
when the main supply ramps up. This spinup will force each PWM into spin-up (if enabled) when the TRDY bit goes
active.
20.13.4.2.2
Start of Spin-up on Standby (VTR) Power Cycle
The two second PWM Clamping feature may be used to delay the fans from being turned on full until the BIOS has the
opportunity to program the limit and configuration registers for the auto fan control mode. (See PWM Clamp on page
83) This is a noise reduction feature. Once the TRDY bit goes high the clamp will be released and the fans will be forced
into spinup.
Note:
If the two second PWM Clamping period expires before TRDY is asserted, the PWMs will be set to Full On.

20.13.5
ACTIVE MINIMUM TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT (AMTA)
The AMTA operation in the SCH3223 consists of a “Top Temperature” register (for each zone) that defines the upper
bound of the operating temperature for the zone. If the temperature exceeds this value, the minimum temperature (Low
Temp Limit) for the zone is adjusted down. This keeps the zone operating in the lower portion of the temperature range
of the fan control function (PWM Duty Cycle vs. Temperature), thereby limiting fan noise by preventing the fan from
going to the higher PWM duty cycles.
20.13.5.1
Adjusting Minimum Temperature Based on Top Temperature
This describes the option for adjusting the minimum temperature based on the Top Temperature.
The AMTA option automatically adjusts the preprogrammed value for the minimum temperature and shifts the temperature range for the autofan algorithm to better suit the environment of the system, that is, to bias the operating range of
the autofan algorithm toward the low end of the temperature range.
It uses a programmed value for the “Top temperature” for the zone to shift the temperature range of the autofan algorithm, and therefore the speed of the fan, toward the middle of the fan control function (PWM Duty Cycle vs. Temperature). This feature will effectively prevent the fans from going on full, thereby limiting the noise produced by the fans.
The value of the Top temperature for each zone can be programmed to be near the center of the temperature range for
the zone, or near the maximum as defined by the low temp limit plus range. The implementation of the AMTA feature is
defined as follows:
This feature can be individually enabled to operate for each zone. Each zone has a separate enable bit for this feature
(register 0B7h). Note that if the piecewise linear fan function is used, the minimum temperature for the zone (Zone x
Low Temp Limit register) is shifted down, which will result in each segment being shifted down.
This feature adjusts the minimum temperature for each zone for the autofan algorithm based on the current temperature
reading for the zone exceeding the Top temperature.
When the current temperature for the zone exceeds the Top temperature for the zone, the minimum temperature value
is reloaded with the value of the minimum temperature limit minus a programmable temperature adjustment value for
the zone, as programmed in the Min Temp Adjust registers. The temperature adjustment value is programmable for
each zone.
The zone must exceed the limits set in the associated Top Temp Zone [3:1] register for two successive monitoring cycles
in order for the minimum temperature value to be adjusted (and for the associated status bit to be set).
The new minimum temperature value is loaded into the low temp limit register for each zone (Zone x Low Temp Limit).
This will cause the temperature range of the autofan algorithm to be biased down in temperature.
Note:
When the minimum temperature for the zone is adjusted, the autofan algorithm will operate with a new fan
control function (PWM Duty Cycle vs. Temperature), which will result in a new PWM duty cycle value. The
PWM will move to the new value smoothly, so there is little audible effect when the PWM Ramp rate control
is enabled.
This process will repeat after a delay until the current temperature for the zone no longer exceeds the Top temperature
for the zone.
Once the minimum temp value is adjusted, it will not adjust again until after a programmable time delay. The delay is
programmed for each zone in the Min Temp Adjust Delay registers. The adjust times are as follows: 1, 2, 3, and 4 minutes.
Figure 8.5 illustrates the operation of the AMTA for one adjustment down in minimum temperature resulting from the
temperature exceeding the Top temperature. The effect on the linear fan control function (PWM Duty Cycle vs. Temperature) is shown.

20.14 nTHERMTRIP
The nTHERMTRIP output pin can be configured to assert when any of the temperature sensors (remote
diodes 1-2, internal) is above its associated temperature limit.
The Thermtrip Enable register at offset CEh selects which reading(s) will cause the nTHERMTRIP signal to be active,
when the selected temperature(s) exceed in the associated limit registers (C4h for Remote Diode 1, C5h for Remote
diode 2, and C9h for Ambient temp) their pre-programmed limit.
An internal version of this output will also be used by the RESGEN block to generate a system reset pulse. More details
can be found in Section 15.0, "Reset Generation," on page 50.
20.14.1
NTHERMTRIP OPERATION
The nTHERMTRIP pin can be configured to assert when one of the temperature zones is above its associated nTHERMTRIP temperature limit (THERMTRIP Temp Limit Zone[3:1]). The Thermtrip temperature limit is a separate limit register from the high limit used for setting the interrupt status bits for each zone.
The THERMTRIP Limit Zone[3:1] registers represent the upper temperature limit for asserting nTHERMTRIP for each
zone. These registers are defined as follows: If the monitored temperature for the zone exceeds the value set in the
associated THERMTRIP Temp Limit Zone[3:1], the corresponding bit in the THERMTRIP status register will be set. The
nTHERMTRIP pin may or may not be set depending on the state of the associated enable bits (in the THERM Output
Enable register).
Each zone may be individually enabled to assert the nTHERMTRIP pin (as an output).
The zone must exceed the limits set in the associated THERMTRIP Temp Limit Zone [3:1] register for two successive monitoring cycles in order for the nTHERMTRIP pin to go active (and for the associated status bit to be
set).

FAN SPEED MONITORING
The chip monitors the speed of the fans by utilizing fan tachometer input signals from fans equipped with tachometer
outputs. The fan tachometer inputs are monitored by using the Fan Tachometer registers. These signals, as well as the
Fan Tachometer registers, are described below.
The tachometers will operate in one of two modes:
• Mode 1: Standard tachometer reading mode. This mode is used when the fan is always powered when the duty
cycle is greater than 00h.
• Mode 2: Enhanced tachometer reading mode. This mode is used when the PWM is pulsing the fan.
20.14.2.1
TACH Inputs
The tachometer inputs are implemented as digital input buffers with logic to filter out small glitches on the tach signal.
20.14.2.2
Selecting the Mode of Operation:
The mode is selected through the Mode Select bits located in the Tach Option register. This Mode Select bit is defined
as follows:
• 0=Mode 1: Standard tachometer reading mode
• 1=Mode 2: Enhanced tachometer reading mode.
Default Mode of Operation:
•

•
•
•
Mode 1
Slow interrupt disabled (Don't force FFFEh)
Tach interrupt enabled via enable bit
Tach Limit = FFFFh
Tach readings updated once a second
20.14.2.3
Mode 1 – Always Monitoring
Mode 1 is the simple case. In this mode, the Fan is always powered when it is ‘ON’ and the fan tachometer output
ALWAYS has a valid output. This mode is typically used if a linear DC Voltage control circuit drives the fan. In this mode,
the fan tachometer simply counts the number of 90kHz pulses between the programmed number of edges (default = 5
edges). The fan tachometer reading registers are continuously updated.
The counter is used to determine the period of the Fan Tachometer input pulse. The counter starts counting on the first
edge and continues counting until it detects the last edge or until it reaches FFFFh. If the programmed number of edges
is detected on or before the counter reaches FFFFh, the reading register is updated with that count value. If the counter
reaches FFFFh and no edges were detected a stalled fan event has occurred and the Tach Reading register will be set
to FFFFh. If one or more edges are detected, but less than the programmed number of edges, a slow fan event has

SCH3223
occurred and the Tach Reading register will be set to either FFFEh or FFFFh depending on the state of the Slow Tach
bits located in the TACHx Options registers at offsets 90h - 93h. Software can easily compute the RPM value using the
tachometer reading value if it knows the number of edges per revolution.
Note 1: If the PWM output associated with a tach input is configured for the high frequency option then the tach input
must be configured for Mode 1.
2: Some enhanced features added to support Mode 2, are available to Mode 1 also. They are: programmable
number of tach edges and force tach reading register to FFFEh to indicate a SLOW fan.
3: Five edges or two tach pulses are generated per revolution.
4: If a tach input is left unconnected it must be configured for Mode 1.
20.14.2.4
Mode 2 – Monitor Tach input When PWM is ‘ON’
In this mode, the PWM is used to pulse the Fan motor of a 3-wire fan. 3-wire fans use the same power supply to drive
the fan motor and to drive the tachometer output logic. When the PWM is ‘ON’ the fan generates valid tach pulses. When
the PWM is not driving the Fan, the tachometer signal is not generated and the tach signal becomes indeterminate or
tristate. Therefore, Mode 2 only makes tachometer measurements when the associated PWM is driving high during an
update cycle. As a result, the Fan tachometer measurement is “synchronized” to the PWM output, such that it only looks
for tach pulses when the PWM is ‘ON’.
Note:
Any fan tachometer input may be associated with any PWM output (see Linking Fan Tachometers to PWMs
on page 98.)
During an update cycle, if an insufficient number of tachometer pulses are detected during this time period, the following
applies: If at least one edge but less than the programmed number of edges is detected, the fan is considered slow. If
no edge is detected, the fan is considered stopped.
Note 1: The interrupt status bits are set, if enabled, to indicate that a slow or stopped fan event has occurred when
the tach reading registers are greater than the tach limit registers.
2: At some duty cycles, the programmed number of edges will appear during some PWM High times, but not
all. If opportunistic mode is enabled, the tach logic will latch the count value any time it detects the programmed number of edges and reset the update counter. An interrupt will only be generated if no valid readings were made during the programmed update time.
20.14.2.5
Assumptions (refer to Figure 4 - PWM and Tachometer Concept):
The Tachometer pulse generates 5 transitions per fan revolution (i.e., two fan tachometer periods per revolution, edges
26). One half of a revolution (one tachometer period) is equivalent to three edges (24 or 35). One quarter of a
revolution (one-half tachometer period) is equivalent to two edges. To obtain the fan speed, count the number of 90Khz
pulses that occurs between 2 edges i.e., 23, between 3 edges i.e., 24, or between 5 edges, i.e. 26 (the case of
9 edges is not shown). The time from 1-2 occurs through the guard time and is not to be used. For the discussion below,
an edge is a high-to-low or low-to-high transition (edges are numbered – refer to Figure 4 - PWM and Tachometer Concept.
The Tachometer circuit begins monitoring the tach when the associated PWM output transitions high and the guard time
has expired. Each tach circuit will continue monitoring until either the “ON” time ends or the programmed number of
edges has been detected, whichever comes first.
The Fan Tachometer value may be updated every 300ms, 500ms, or 1000ms.

Fan Tachometer Options for Mode 2
• 2, 3, 5 or 9 “edges” to calculate the fan speed (Figure 4)
• Guard time A is programmable (8-63 clocks) to account for delays in the system (Figure 4)
• Suggested PWM frequencies for mode 2 are: 11.0 Hz, 14.6 Hz, 21.9 Hz, 29.3 Hz, 35.2 Hz, 44.0 Hz, 58.6 Hz,
87.7Hz
• Option to ignore first 3 tachometer edges after guard time
• Option to force tach reading register to FFFEh to indicate a slow fan.
20.14.2.6
Fan Tachometer Reading Registers:
The Tachometer Reading registers are 16 bits, unsigned. When one byte of a 16-bit register is read, the other byte
latches the current value until it is read, in order to ensure a valid reading. The order is LSB first, MSB second. The value
FFFFh indicates that the fan is not spinning, or the tachometer input is not connected to a valid signal (this could be
triggered by a counter overflow). These registers are read only – a write to these registers has no effect.
Note 1: The Fan Tachometer Reading registers always return an accurate fan tachometer measurement, even
when a fan is disabled or non-functional.
2: FFFFh indicates that the fan is not spinning, or the tachometer input is not connected to a valid signal (This
could be triggered by a counter overflow).
3: The Tachometer registers are read only – a write to these registers has no effect.
4: Mode 1 should be enabled and the tachometer limit register should be set to FFFFh if a tachometer input is
left unconnected.
20.14.2.7
Programming Options for Each Tachometer Input
The features defined in this section are programmable via the TACHx Option registers located at offsets 90h-92h and
the PWMx Option registers located at offsets 94h-96h.
20.14.2.7.1
Tach Reading Update Time
In Mode 1, the Fan Tachometer Reading registers are continuously updated. In Mode 2, the fan tachometer registers
are updated every 300ms, 500msec, or 1000msec. This option is programmed via bits[1:0] in the PWMx Option register.
The PWM associated with a particular TACH(s) determines the TACH update time.

20.14.2.7.2
Programmed Number Of Tach Edges
In modes 1 & 2, the number of edges is programmable for 2, 3, 5 or 9 edges (i.e., ½ tachometer pulse, 1 tachometer
pulse, 2 tachometer pulses, 4 tachometer pulses). This option is programmed via bits[2:1] in the TachX Option register.
Note:
The “5 edges” case corresponds to two tachometer pulses, or 1 RPM for most fans. Using the other edge
options will require software to scale the values in the reading register to correspond to the count for 1
RPM.
20.14.2.7.3
Guard Time (Mode 2 Only)
The guard time is programmable from 8 to 63 clocks (90kHz). This option is programmed via bits[4:3] in the TachX
Option register.
20.14.2.7.4
Ignore first 3 tachometer edges (Mode 2 Only)
Option to ignore first 3 tachometer edges after guard time. This option is programmed for each tachometer via bits[2:0]
in the TACHx Option register. Default is do not ignore first 3 tachometer edges after guard time.
20.14.2.8
Summary of Operation for Modes 1 & 2
The following summarizes the detection cases:
• No edge occurs during the PWM ‘ON’ time: indicate this condition as a stalled fan
- The tachometer reading register contains FFFFh.
• One edge (or less than programmed number of edges) occurs during the PWM ‘ON’ time: indicate this condition as a slow fan.
- If the SLOW bit is enabled, the tachometer reading register will be set to FFFEh to indicate that this is a slow
fan instead of a seized fan. Note: This operation also pertains to the case where the tachometer counter
reaches FFFFh before the programmed number of edges occurs.
- If the SLOW bit is disabled, the tachometer reading register will be set to FFFFh. In this case, no distinction is
made between a slow or seized fan.
Note:
The Slow Interrupt Enable feature (SLOW) is configured in the TACHx Options registers at offsets 90h to
93h.
• The programmed number of edges occurs:
- Mode 1: If the programmed number of edges occurs before the counter reaches FFFFh latch the tachometer
count
- Mode 2: If the programmed number of edges occurs during the PWM ‘ON’ time: latch the tachometer count
(see Note below).
Note 1: Whenever the programmed number of edges is detected, the edge detection ends and the state machine
is reset. The tachometer reading register is updated with the tachometer count value at this time. See
Detection of a Stalled Fan on page 97 for the exception to this behavior.
2: In the case where the programmed number of edges occurs during the “on”, the tachometer value is latched
when the last required edge is detected.

20.14.2.10 Detection of a Stalled Fan
There is a fan failure bit (TACHx) in the interrupt status register used to indicate that a slow or stalled fan event has
occurred. If the tach reading value exceeds the value programmed in the tach limit register the interrupt status bit is set.
See Interrupt Status register 2 at offset 42h.
Note 1: The reading register will be forced to FFFFh if a stalled event occurs (i.e., stalled event =no edges detected.)
2: The reading register will be forced to either FFFFh or FFFEh if a slow fan event occurs. (i.e., slow event: 0
< #edges < programmed #edges). If the control bit, SLOW, located in the TACHx Options registers at offsets
90h - 93h, is set then FFFEh will be forced into the corresponding Tach Reading Register to indicate that
the fan is spinning slowly.
3: The fan tachometer reading register stays at FFFFh in the event of a stalled fan. If the fan begins to spin
again, the tachometer logic will reset and latch the next valid reading into the tachometer reading register.

SCH3223
20.14.2.11 Fan Interrupt Status Bits
The status bits for the fan events are in Interrupt Status Register 2 (42h). These bits are set when the reading register
is above the tachometer minimum and the Interrupt Enable 2 (Fan Tachs) register bits are configured to enable Fan
Tach events. No interrupt status bits are set for fan events (even if the fan is stalled) if the associated tachometer minimum is set to FFFFh (registers 54h-5Bh).
Note:
The Interrupt Enable 2 (Fan Tachs) register at offset 80h defaults to enabled for the individual tachometer
status events bits. The group Fan Tach nHWM_INT bit defaults to disabled. This bit needs to be set if Fan
Tach interrupts are to be generated on the external nHWM_INT pin.
See FIGURE 20-3: Interrupt Control on page 71.
20.14.3
LOCKED ROTOR SUPPORT FOR TACHOMETER INPUTS
All tachometer inputs support locked rotor input mode. In this mode, the tachometer input pin is not used as a tachometer signal, but as a level signal. The active state of this signal (high or low) is the state that the fan’s locked rotor signal
indicates the locked condition.
The locked rotor signals that are supported are active high level and active low level. They are selectable for each
tachometer. If the pin goes to its programmed active state, the associated interrupt status bit will be set. In addition, if
properly configured, the nHWM_INT pin can be made to go active when the status bit is set.
The locked rotor input option is configured through the following bits:
• Tach1 Mode, bits[7:6] of Tach 1-3 Mode register.
• Tach2 Mode, bits[5:4]of Tach 1-3 Mode register.
• Tach3 Mode, bit[3:2] of Tach 1-3 Mode register.
These bits are defined as follows:
•
•
•
•
00=normal operation (default)
01=locked rotor mode, active high signal
10=locked rotor mode, active low signal
11=undefined.
20.14.4
LINKING FAN TACHOMETERS TO PWMS
The TACH/PWM Association Register at offset 81h is used to associate a Tachometer input with a PWM output. This
association has three purposes:
1.
2.
3.
The auto fan control logic supports a feature called SpinUp Reduction. If SpinUp Reduction is enabled (SUREN
bit), the auto fan control logic will stop driving the PWM output high if the associated TACH input is operating
within normal parameters. (Note: SUREN bit is located in the Configuration Register at offset 7Fh.)
To measure the tachometer input in Mode 2, the tachometer logic must know when the associated PWM is ‘ON’.
Inhibit fan tachometer interrupts when the associated PWM is ‘OFF’.
See the description of the PWM_TACH register. The default configuration is:
PWM1 -> FANTACH1.
PWM2 -> FANTACH2.
PWM3 -> FANTACH3.
Note:
If a FANTACH is associated with a PWM operating in high frequency mode (see the Zonex Range/FANx
Frequency registers (5Fh-61h)) the tach monitoring logic must be configured for Mode 1 (see Bit[3] Mode
in FANTACHx Option Registers, 90h-92h).

20.15 High Frequency PWM Options
Note:
20.15.1
If a fan with a tachometer output is driven by the high frequency PWM option, the tachometer must be monitored in Mode 1 only.
PWM FREQUENCIES SUPPORTED
The SCH3223 supports low frequency and high frequency PWMs. The low frequency options are 11.0Hz, 14.6Hz,
21.9Hz, 29.3Hz, 35.2Hz, 44.0Hz, 58.6Hz and 87.7Hz. The high frequency options are 15kHz, 20kHz, 25kHz and 30kHz.
All PWM frequencies are derived from the 14.318MHz clock input.
The frequency of the PWM output is determined by the Frequency Select bits[3:0]. The default PWM frequency is
25kHz.

The Voltage Reading registers reflect the current voltage of the voltage monitoring inputs. Voltages are presented in the
registers at ¾ full scale for the nominal voltage, meaning that at nominal voltage, each register will read C0h, except for
the Vbat input. Vbat is nominally a 3.0V input that is implemented on a +3.3V (nominal) analog input. Therefore, the
nominal reading for Vbat is AEh.
Note:
Vbat will only be monitored when the Vbat Monitoring Enable bit is set to ‘1’. Updating the Vbat register
automatically clears the Vbat Monitoring Enable bit.

The Temperature Reading registers reflect the current temperatures of the internal and remote diodes. Remote Diode
1 Temp Reading register reports the temperature measured by the Remote1- and Remote1+ pins, Remote Diode 2
Temp Reading register reports the temperature measured by the Remote2- and Remote2+ pins, and the Internal Diode
Temp Reading register reports the temperature measured by the internal (ambient) temperature sensor. Current temperatures are represented as 12 bit, 2’s complement, signed numbers in Celsius. The 8MSbs are accessible in the temperature reading registers. Table 21-3 shows the conversion for the 8-bit reading value shown in these registers. The
extended precision bits for these readings are accessible in the A/D Converter LSBs Register (85h-86h). The Temperature Reading register will return a value of 80h if the remote diode pins are not implemented by the board designer or
are not functioning properly (this corresponds to the diode fault interrupt status bits). The Temperature Reading registers
will be updated automatically by the SCH3223 Chip with a minimum frequency of 4Hz.
Note:
These registers are read only – a write to these registers has no effect.
Each of the temperature reading registers are mapped to a zone. Each PWM may be programmed to operate in the
auto fan control operating mode by associating a PWM with one or more zones. The following is a list of the zone associations.
• Zone 1 is controlled by Remote Diode 1 Temp Reading
• Zone 2 is controlled by Internal Temp Reading (Ambient Temperature Sensor)
• Zone 3 is controlled by Remote Diode 2 Temp Reading
Note:
To read a 12-bit reading value, software must read in the order of MSB then LSB. If several readings are
being read at the same time, software can read all the MSB registers then the corresponding LSB registers.
For example: Read RD1 Reading, RD2 Reading, then A/D Converter LSbs Reg1, which contains the LSbs
for RD1 and RD2.

This register is reset to its default value when PWRGD_PS is asserted.
The Fan Tachometer Reading registers contain the number of 11.111s periods (90KHz) between full fan revolutions.
Fans produce two tachometer pulses per full revolution. These registers are updated at least once every second.
This value is represented for each fan in a 16 bit, unsigned number.
The Fan Tachometer Reading registers always return an accurate fan tachometer measurement, even when a fan is
disabled or non-functional, including when the start bit=0.
When one byte of a 16-bit register is read, the other byte latches the current value until it is read, in order to ensure a
valid reading. The order is LSB first, MSB second.
FFFFh indicates that the fan is not spinning, or the tachometer input is not connected to a valid signal (This could be
triggered by a counter overflow).
These registers are read only – a write to these registers has no effect.

The Current PWM Duty registers store the duty cycle that the chip is currently driving the PWM signals at. At initial
power-on, the duty cycle is 100% and thus, when read, this register will return FFh. After the Ready/Lock/Start Register
Start bit is set, this register and the PWM signals are updated based on the algorithm described in the Auto Fan Control
Operating Mode section and the Ramp Rate Control logic, unless the associated fan is in manual mode – see below.
Note:
When the device is configured for Manual Mode, the Ramp Rate Control logic should be disabled.
When read, the Current PWM Duty registers return the current PWM duty cycle for the respective PWM signal.
These registers are read only – a write to these registers has no effect.
Note:
If the current PWM duty cycle registers are written while the part is not in manual mode or when the start
bit is zero, the data will be stored in internal registers that will only be active and observable when the start
bit is set and the fan is configured for manual mode. While the part is not in manual mode and the start bit
is zero, the current PWM duty cycle registers will read back FFh.
Manual Mode (Test Mode)
In manual mode, when the start bit is set to 1 and the lock bit is 0, the current duty cycle registers are writeable to control
the PWMs.
Note:
When the lock bit is set to 1, the current duty cycle registers are Read-Only.
The PWM duty cycle is represented as follows:

During spin-up, the PWM duty cycle is reported as 0%.
Note 1: The PWMx Current Duty Cycle always reflects the current duty cycle on the associated PWM pin.
2: The PWMx Current Duty Cycle register is implemented as two separate registers: a read-only and a writeonly. When a value is written to this register in manual mode there will be a delay before the programmed
value can be read back by software. The hardware updates the read-only PWMx Current Duty Cycle register
on the beginning of a PWM cycle. If Ramp Rate Control is disabled, the delay to read back the programmed
value will be from 0 seconds to 1/(PWM frequency) seconds. Typically, the delay will be 1/(2*PWM frequency) seconds.

When software writes a 1 to this bit, the SCH3223 enables
monitoring and PWM output control functions based on the
limit and parameter registers. Before this bit is set, the part
does not update register values. Whenever this bit is set to
0, the monitoring and PWM output control functions are
based on the default limits and parameters, regardless of the
current values in the limit and parameter registers. The
SCH3223 preserves the values currently stored in the limit
and parameter registers when this bit is set or cleared. This
bit becomes read only when the Lock bit is set.
Note 1: When this bit is 0, all fans are on full 100% duty
cycle, i.e., PWM pins are high for 255 clocks, low
for 1 clock. When this bit is 0, the part is not monitoring.
2: It is suggested that software clear the START bit
and exit auto fan control mode before modifying
any fan configuration registers. After clearing the
START bit, software should wait for a period of one
90kHz-10% clock (~12.5usec) before setting the
START bit back to ‘1’ to ensure the fan logic exited
auto mode when START was cleared.

Note 21-17 There is a start-up time of up to 301.5ms (default - see Table 20-2, “ADC Conversion Sequence,” on
page 69) for monitoring after the start bit is set to ‘1’, during which time the reading registers are not
valid. Software can poll the TRDY bit located in the Configuration Register (7Fh) to determine when
the voltage and temperature readings are valid.The following summarizes the operation of the part
based on the Start bit:
1.
2.
If Start bit = '0' then:
a) Fans are set to Full On.
b) No temperature or fan tach monitoring is performed. The values in the reading registers will be N/A (Not
Applicable), which means these values will not be considered valid readings until the Start bit = '1'. The
exception to this is the Tachometer reading registers, which always give the actual reading on the TACH
pins.
c) No Status bits are set.
If Start bit = '1'
a) All fan control and monitoring will be based on the current values in the registers. There is no need to preserve the default values after software has programmed these registers because no monitoring or auto fan
control will be done when Start bit = '0'.
b) Status bits may be set.

This bit indicates that a status bit is set in the Interrupt Status Register 2 Register. Therefore, S/W can poll this register,
and only if bit 7 is set does the other registers need to be read. This bit is cleared (set to 0) automatically by the device
if there are no bits set in the Interrupt Status Register 2.
Bits[6:0] Individual Status Bits
Bits[6:0] of the Interrupt Status Register 1 are automatically set by the device whenever the measured temperature on
Remote Diode 1, Internal Diode, or the Remote Diode 2 Temperature violates the limits set in the corresponding temperature limit registers. These individual status bits remain set until the bit is written to one by software or until the individual enable bit is cleared, even if the temperatures no longer violate the limits set in the limit registers.
• Clearing the status bits by a write of ‘1’
- The voltage status bits are cleared (set to 0) automatically by the SCH3223 after they are written to one by
software, if the voltage readings no longer violate the limit set in the limit registers. See Registers 44-4Dh,
9B-9Eh: Voltage Limit Registers on page 113.
- The temperature status bits are cleared (set to 0) automatically by the SCH3223 after they are written to one
by software, if the temperature readings no longer violate the limit set in the limit registers. See Registers 4E53h: Temperature Limit Registers on page 114.
• Clearing the status bits by clearing the individual enable bits.
- Clearing or setting the individual enable bits does not take effect unless the START bit is 1. No interrupt status
events can be generated when START=0 or when the individual enable bit is cleared. If the status bit is one
and the START bit is one then clearing the individual enable bit will immediately clear the status bit. If the status bit is one and the START bit is zero then clearing the individual enable bit will have no effect on the status
bit until the START bit is set to one. Setting the START bit to one when the individual enable bit is zero will
clear the status bit. Setting or clearing the START bit when the individual enable bit is one has no effect on the
status bits.
Note 1: The individual enable bits for D2, AMB, and D1 are located in the Interrupt Enable 3 (Temp) register at offset
82h.
2: Clearing the group Temp enable bit or the global INTEN enable bit has no effect on the status bits.

Note 1: This register is reset to its default value when the PWRGD_PS signal transitions high.
2: This is a read/write-to-clear register. The status bits are cleared on a write of one if the event causing the
interrupt is no longer active. Writing a zero to these bits has no effect.
The Interrupt Status Register 2 bits is automatically set by the device whenever a tach reading value is above the minimum value set in the tachometer minimum registers or when a remote diode fault occurs. When a remote diode fault
occurs (if the start bit is set) 80h will be loaded into the associated temperature reading register, which causes the associated diode limit error bit to be set (see Register 41h: Interrupt Status Register 1 on page 110) in addition to the diode
fault bit (ERRx). These individual status bits remain set until the bit is written to one by software or until the individual
enable bit is cleared, even if the event no longer persists.
• Clearing the status bits by a write of ‘1’
- The FANTACHx status bits are cleared (set to 0) automatically by the SCH3223 after they are written to one
by software, if the FANTACHx reading register no longer violates the programmed FANTACH Limit. (See
Registers 28-2Dh: Fan Tachometer Reading on page 107 and Registers 54-59h: Fan Tachometer Low Limit
on page 114)
- The ERRx status bits are cleared (set to 0) automatically by the SCH3223 after they are written to one by software, if the Diode Fault condition no longer exists. The remote diode fault bits do not get cleared while the
fault condition exists.
• Clearing the status bits by clearing the individual enable bits.
- Clearing or setting the individual enable bits does not take effect unless the START bit is 1. No interrupt status
events can be generated when START=0 or when the individual enable bit is cleared. If the status bit is one
and the START bit is one then clearing the individual enable bit will immediately clear the status bit. If the status bit is one and the START bit is zero then clearing the individual enable bit will have no effect on the status
bit until the START bit is set to one. Setting the START bit to one when the individual enable bit is zero will
clear the status bit. Setting or clearing the START bit when the individual enable bit is one has no effect on the
status bits.
Note 1: The individual enable bits for FANTACH[1:3] are located in Register 80h: Interrupt Enable 2 Register on
page 124. The ERRx bits are enabled by the Remote Diode Limit error bits located in Register 82h: Interrupt
Enable 3 Register on page 125
2: Clearing the group FANTACH or Temp enable bits or the global INTEN enable bit has no effect on the status
bits.

Setting the Lock bit has no effect on these registers.
If a voltage input either exceeds the value set in the voltage high limit register or falls below or equals the value set in
the voltage low limit register, the corresponding bit will be set automatically in the interrupt status registers (41-42h, 83h).
Voltages are presented in the registers at ¾ full scale for the nominal voltage, meaning that at nominal voltage, each
register will read C0h, except for the Vbat input. Vbat is nominally a 3.0V input that is implemented on a +3.3V (nominal)
analog input. Therefore, the nominal reading for Vbat is AEh.
Note:
Vbat will only be monitored when the Vbat Monitoring Enable bit is set to ‘1’. Updating the Vbat reading
register automatically clears the Vbat Monitoring Enable bit.

Setting the Lock bit has no effect on these registers.
If an external temperature input or the internal temperature sensor either exceeds the value set in the high limit register
or is less than or equal to the value set in the low limit register, the corresponding bit will be set automatically by the
SCH3223 in the Interrupt Status Register 1 (41h). For example, if the temperature reading from the Remote1- and
Remote1+ inputs exceeds the Remote Diode 1 High Temp register limit setting, Bit[4] D1 of the Interrupt Status Register
1 will be set. The temperature limits in these registers are represented as 8 bit, 2’s complement, signed numbers in Celsius, as shown below in Table 21-6.

The Fan Tachometer Low Limit registers indicate the tachometer reading under which the corresponding bit will be set
in the Interrupt Status Register 2 register. In Auto Fan Control mode, the fan can run at high speeds (100% duty cycle),
so care should be taken in software to ensure that the limit is low enough not to cause sporadic alerts. Note that an
interrupt status event will be generated when the tachometer reading is greater than the minimum tachometer limit.
The fan tachometer will not cause a bit to be set in the interrupt status register if the current value in the associated
Current PWM Duty registers is 00h or if the PWM is disabled via the PWM Configuration Register.
Interrupts will never be generated for a fan if its tachometer minimum is set to FFFFh.

These registers become read only when the Lock bit is set. Any further attempts to write to these registers shall have
no effect.
Bits [7:5] Zone/Mode
Bits [7:5] of the PWM Configuration registers associate each PWM with a temperature zone.
• When in Auto Fan Mode, the PWM will be assigned to a zone, and its PWM duty cycle will be adjusted according
to the temperature of that zone. If ‘Hottest’ option is selected (101 or 110), the PWM will be controlled by the hottest of zones 2 and 3, or of zones 1, 2, and 3. If one of these options is selected, the PWM is controlled by the limits and parameters for the zone that requires the highest PWM duty cycle, as computed by the auto fan algorithm.
• When in manual control mode, the PWMx Current Duty Cycle Registers (30h-32h) become Read/Write. It is then
possible to control the PWM outputs with software by writing to these registers. See PWMx Current Duty Cycle
Registers description.
• When the fan is disabled (100) the corresponding PWM output is driven low (or high, if inverted).
• When the fan is Full On (011) the corresponding PWM output is driven high (or low, if inverted).
Note 1: Zone 1 is controlled by Remote Diode 1 Temp Reading register
2: Zone 2 is controlled by the Ambient Reading Register.
3: Zone 3 is controlled by Remote Diode 2 Temp Reading register

Bit [4] PWM Invert
Bit [4] inverts the PWM output. If set to 1, 100% duty cycle will yield an output that is low for 255 clocks and high for 1
clock. If set to 0, 100% duty cycle will yield an output that is high for 255 clocks and low for 1 clock.
Bit [3] Forced Spin-up Enable
Bit [3] enables the forced spin up option for a particular PWM. If set to 1, the forced spin-up feature is enabled for the
associated PWM. If set to 0, the forced spin-up feature is disabled for the associated PWM.
APPLICATION NOTE: This bit should always be enabled (set) to prevent fan tachometer interrupts during spinup.

DS00002028B-page 115
SCH3223
Bits [2:0] Spin Up
Bits [2:0] specify the ‘spin up’ time for the fan. When a fan is being started from a stationary state, the PWM output is
held at 100% duty cycle for the time specified in the table below before scaling to a lower speed. Note: during spin-up,
the PWM pin is forced high for the duration of the spin-up time (i.e., 100% duty cycle = 256/256).
Note:
To reduce the spin-up time, this device has implemented a feature referred to as Spin Up Reduction. Spin
Up Reduction uses feedback from the tachometers to determine when each fan has started spinning properly. Spin up for a PWM will end when the tachometer reading register is below the minimum limit, or the
spin-up time expires, whichever comes first. All tachs associated with a PWM must be below min. for spinup to end prematurely. This feature can be disabled by clearing bit 4 (SUREN) of the Configuration register
(7Fh). If disabled, the all fans go on full for the duration of their associated spin up time. Note that the Tachx
minimum registers must be programmed to a value less than FFFFh in order for the spin-up reduction to
work properly.

In Auto Fan Mode, when the temperature for a zone is above the Low Temperature Limit (registers 67-69h) and below
the Absolute Temperature Limit (registers 6A-6Ch) the speed of a fan assigned to that zone is determined as follows by
the auto fan control logic.
When the temperature reaches the temperature value programmed in the Zone x Low Temp Limit register, the PWM
output assigned to that zone is at PWMx Minimum Duty Cycle. Between Zone x Low Temp Limit and (Zone x Low Temp
Limit + Zone x Range), the PWM duty cycle increases linearly according to the temperature as shown in the figure below.

Example for PWM1 assigned to Zone 1:
• Zone 1 Low Temp Limit (Register 67h) is set to 50C (32h).
• Zone 1 Range (Register 5Fh) is set to 8C (7h)
• PWM1 Minimum Duty Cycle (Register 64h) is set to 50% (80h)
In this case, the PWM1 duty cycle will be 50% at 50C.
Since (Zone 1 Low Temp Limit) + (Zone 1 Range) = 50C + 8C = 58C, the fan controlled by PWM1 will run at 100%
duty cycle when the temperature of the Zone 1 sensor is at 58C.
Since the midpoint of the fan control range is 54C, and the median duty cycle is 75% (Halfway between the PWM Minimum and 100%), PWM1 duty cycle would be 75% at 54C.
Above (Zone 1 Low Temp Limit) + (Zone 1 Range), the duty cycle must be 100%.
The PWM frequency bits [3:0] determine the PWM frequency for the fan. If the high frequency option is selected the
associated FANTACH inputs must be configured for Mode 1.

Description of Ramp Rate Control bits:
If the Remote1 or Remote2 pins are connected to a processor or chipset, instantaneous temperature spikes may be
sampled by the part. The auto fan control logic calculates the PWM duty cycle for all temperature readings. If Ramp
Rate Control is disabled, the PWM output will jump or oscillate between different PWM duty cycles causing the fan to
suddenly change speeds, which creates unwanted fan noise. If enabled, the PWM Ramp Rate Control logic will prevent
the PWM output from jumping, instead the PWM will ramp up/down towards the new duty cycle at a pre-determined
ramp rate.
Ramp Rate Control
The Ramp Rate Control logic limits the amount of change to the PWM duty cycle over a period of time. This period of
time is programmable via the Ramp Rate Control bits. For a detailed description of the Ramp Rate Control bits see
Table 21-11.
Note 1: RR1E, RR2E, and RR3E enable PWM Ramp Rate Control for PWM 1, 2, and 3 respectively.

These registers become read only when the Lock bit is set. Any further attempts to write to these registers shall have
no effect.
In Auto Fan mode, if any zone associated with a PWM output exceeds the temperature set in the Absolute limit register,
all PWM outputs will increase their duty cycle to 100% except those that are disabled via the PWM Configuration registers. This is a safety feature that attempts to cool the system if there is a potentially catastrophic thermal event.
DS00002028B-page 120
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
SCH3223
If an absolute limit register set to 80h (-128c), the safety feature is disabled for the associated zone. That is, if 80h is
written into the Zone x Temp Absolute Limit Register, then regardless of the reading register for the zone, the fans will
not turn on-full based on the absolute temp condition.
Default =100c=64h.
When any fan is in auto fan mode, then if the temperature in any zone exceeds absolute limit, all fans go to full, including
any in manual mode, except those that are disabled. Therefore, even if a zone is not associated with a fan, if that zone
exceeds absolute, then all fans go to full. In this case, the absolute limit can be chosen to be 7Fh for those zones that
are not associated with a fan, so that the fans won't turn on unless the temperature hits 127 degrees.

Note 1: This is a read/write-to-clear register. The status bits are cleared on a write of one if the event causing the
interrupt is no longer active. Writing a zero to these bits has no effect.
The Interrupt Status Register 3 bits[1:0] are automatically set by the device whenever a voltage event occurs on the

This register holds a set bit until the event is cleared by software or until the individual enable bit is cleared. Once set,
the Interrupt Status Register 3 bits remain set until the individual enable bits is cleared, even if the voltage or tachometer

There is a 10-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) located in the hardware monitoring block that converts the measured
voltages into 10-bit reading values. Depending on the averaging scheme enabled (i.e., 16x averaging, 32x averaging,
etc.), the hardware monitor may take multiple readings and average them to create 12-bit reading values. The 8 MSb’s
of the reading values are placed in the Reading Registers. When the upper 8-bits located in the reading registers are
read the 4 LSb’s are latched into their respective bits in the A/D Converter LSbs Register. This give 12-bits of resolution
with a minimum value of 1/16th per unit measured. (i.e., Temperature Range: -127.9375 ºC < Temp < 127.9375 ºC and
Voltage Range: 0 < Voltage < 256.9375). See the DC Characteristics for the accuracy of the reading values.
The eight most significant bits of the 12-bit averaged readings are stored in Reading registers and compared with Limit
registers. The Interrupt Status Register bits are asserted if the corresponding measured value(s) on the inputs violate
their programmed limits.

This register is used to enable the Automatic Minimum Temperature Adjustment (AMTA) feature for each zone. AMTA
allows for an adjustment of the low temp limit temperature register for each zone when the current temperature for the
zone exceeds the Top Temperature. Bits[3:1] are used to enable an adjustment of the low temp limit for each of zones
1-3.
This register also contains the bit (TOP_INT_EN) to enable an interrupt to be generated anytime the top temp for any
zone is exceeded. This interrupt is generated based on a bit in the Top Temp Exceeded status register (0B8h) being set.
Note that the INT_EN bit (register 7Ch) must also be set for an interrupt to be generated on the THERM pin.

The Top Temp Exceeded Status Register bits are automatically set by the device whenever the temperature value in the
reading register for a zone exceeds the value in the Top Temperature register for the zone.
This register holds a bit set until the bit is written to 1 by software. The contents of this register are cleared (set to 0)
automatically by the device after it is written by software, if the temperature no longer exceeds the value in the Top Temperature register for the zone. Once set, the Status bits remain set until written to 1, even if the if the temperature no

These registers become read only when the Lock bit is set. Any further attempts to write to these registers shall have
no effect.
The nTHERMTRIP pin can be configured to assert when one of the temperature zones is above its associated THERMTRIP temperature limit (THERMTRIP Temp Limit ZONES 1-3). The THERMTRIP temperature limit is a separate limit
register from the high limit used for setting the interrupt status bits for each zone.
The THERMTRIP Temp Limit ZONE 1-3 registers represent the upper temperature limit for asserting nTHERMTRIP pin
for each zone. These registers are defined as follows:
If the monitored temperature for the zone exceeds the value set in the associated THERMTRIP Temp Limit ZONE 1-3
registers, the corresponding bit in the THERMTRIP status register will be set. The nTHERMTRIP pin may or may not
be set depending on the state of the associated enable bits (in the THERMTRIP Output Enable register).
Note:
21.2.65
The zone must exceed the limits set in the associated THERMTRIP Temp Limit ZONE 1-3 register for two
successive monitoring cycles in order for the nTHERMTRIP pin to go active (and for the associated status
bit to be set).

CONFIG REGISTERS
The Configuration of the SCH3223 is very flexible and is based on the configuration architecture implemented in typical
Plug-and-Play components. The SCH3223 is designed for motherboard applications in which the resources required by
their components are known. With its flexible resource allocation architecture, the SCH3223 allows the BIOS to assign
resources at POST.
SYSTEM ELEMENTS
Primary Configuration Address Decoder
After a PCI Reset or Vcc Power On Reset the SCH3223 is in the Run Mode with all logical devices disabled. The logical
devices may be configured through two standard Configuration I/O Ports (INDEX and DATA) by placing the SCH3223
into Configuration Mode.
The BIOS uses these configuration ports to initialize the logical devices at POST. The INDEX and DATA ports are only
valid when the SCH3223 Is in Configuration Mode.
Strap options must be added to allow four Configuration Register Base Address options: 0x002E, 0x004E, 0x162E, or
0x164E. At the deasertting edge of PCIRST# or VCC POR the nRTS1/SYSOPT0 pin is latched to determine
the configuration base address:
• 0 = Index Base I/O Address bits A[7:0]= 0x2E
• 1 = Index Base I/O Address bits A[7:0]= 0x4E
At the deasertting edge of PCIRST# or VCC POR the nDTR1/SYSOPT1 pin is latched to determine the
configuration base address:
• 0 = Index Base I/O Address bits A[15:8]= 0x16;
• 1 = Index Base I/O Address bits A[15:8]= 0x00
bit The above strap options will allow the Configuration Access Ports (CONFIG PORT, the INDEX PORT, and DATA
PORT) to be controlled by the nRTS1/SYSOPT0 and nDTR1/SYSOPT1 pins and by the Configuration Port Base
Address registers at offset 0x26 and 0x27. The configuration base address at power-up is determined by the SYSOPT
strap option. The SYSOPT strap option is latched state of the nRTS1/SYSOPT0 and nDTR1/SYSOPT1 pins at the
deasserting edge of PCIRST#. The nRTS1/SYSOPT0 pin determines the lower byte of the Base Address and the
nDTR1/SYSOPT1 pin determines the upper byte of the Base Address. The following table summarizes the Base Configuration address selected by the SYSOPT strap option.

APPLICATION NOTE: The nRTS1/SYSOPT0 and the nDTR1/SYSOPT1 pins requires external pullup/pulldown
resistors to set the default base I/O address for configuration to 0x002E, 0x004E, 0x162E,
or 0x164E.
The INDEX and DATA ports are effective only when the chip is in the Configuration State.
Note 22-1
The configuration port base address can be relocated through CR26 and CR27.
Entering the Configuration State
The device enters the Configuration State when the following Config Key is successfully written to the CONFIG PORT.
Config Key = <0x55>
Exiting the Configuration State
The device exits the Configuration State when the following Config Key is successfully written to the CONFIG PORT.
Config Key = <0xAA>
 2015 Microchip Technology Inc.
DS00002028B-page 137
SCH3223
CONFIGURATION SEQUENCE
To program the configuration registers, the following sequence must be followed:
1.
2.
3.
Enter Configuration Mode
Configure the Configuration Registers
Exit Configuration Mode.
Enter Configuration Mode
To place the chip into the Configuration State the Config Key is sent to the chip’s CONFIG PORT. The config key consists
of 0x55 written to the CONFIG PORT. Once the configuration key is received correctly the chip enters into the Configuration State. (The auto Config ports are enabled).
Configuration Mode
The system sets the logical device information and activates desired logical devices through the INDEX and DATA ports.
In configuration mode, the INDEX PORT is located at the CONFIG PORT address and the DATA PORT is at INDEX
PORT address + 1.
The desired configuration registers are accessed in two steps:
1.
2.
Write the index of the Logical Device Number Configuration Register (i.e., 0x07) to the INDEX PORT and then
write the number of the desired logical device to the DATA PORT.
Write the address of the desired configuration register within the logical device to the INDEX PORT and then write
or read the configuration register through the DATA PORT.
Note:
If accessing the Global Configuration Registers, step (a) is not required.
Exit Configuration Mode
To exit the Configuration State the system writes 0xAA to the CONFIG PORT. The chip returns to the RUN State.
Note:
Only two states are defined (Run and Configuration). In the Run State the chip will always be ready to enter
the Configuration State.

The following is an example of a configuration program in Intel 8086 assembly language.

Note 22-2
22.1.1
Serial ports 1 and 2 may be placed in the powerdown mode by clearing the associated activate bit
located at CR30 or by clearing the associated power bit located in the Power Control register at
CR22. When in the powerdown mode, the serial port outputs are tristated. In cases where the serial
port is multiplexed as an alternate function, the corresponding output will only be tristated if the serial
port is the selected alternate function.
GLOBAL CONFIG REGISTERS
The chip-level (global) registers lie in the address range [0x00-0x2F]. The design MUST use all 8 bits of the ADDRESS
Port for register selection. All unimplemented registers and bits ignore writes and return zero when read.
The INDEX PORT is used to select a configuration register in the chip. The DATA PORT is then used to access the
selected register. These registers are accessible only in the Configuration Mode.

To allow the selection of the configuration address to a user defined location, these Configuration
Address Bytes are used. There is no restriction on the address chosen, except that A0 is 0, that is,
the address must be on an even byte boundary. As soon as both bytes are changed, the configuration
space is moved to the specified location with no delay (Note: Write byte 0, then byte 1; writing CR27
changes the base address).
The configuration address is only reset to its default address upon a PCI Reset or Vcc POR.
Note:

Note 1: An Interrupt is activated by setting the Interrupt Request Level Select 0 register to a non-zero value AND:
- For the Serial Port logical device by setting any combination of bits D0-D3 in the IER and by setting the OUT2
bit in the UART's Modem Control (MCR) Register.
Note 22-8
Logical Device IRQ Operation. IRQ Enable and Disable: Any time the IRQ channel for a logical block
is disabled by a register bit in that logical block, the IRQ channel must be disabled. This is in addition
to the IRQ channel disabled by the Configuration Registers (Active bit or address not valid).
Serial Ports:
Modem Control Register (MCR) Bit D2 (OUT2) - When OUT2 is a logic “0”, the serial port interrupt is disabled.
MCHP Defined Logical Device Configuration Registers
The MCHP Specific Logical Device Configuration Registers reset to their default values only on PCI resets generated
by Vcc or VTR POR (as shown) or the PCI_RESET# signal. These registers are not affected by soft resets.

When selecting an alternate function for a GPIO pin, all bits in the GPIO register must be properly programmed, including in/out, polarity and output type.
Note 23-11
If this pin is used for Ring Indicator wakeup, either the nRI2 event can be enabled via bit 1 in the
PME_EN1 register or the GP50 PME event can be enabled via bit 0 in the PME_EN5 register.
Note 23-12 If the EETI function is selected for this GPIO then both a high-to-low and a low-to-high edge will set
the PME, SMI and MSC status bits.
Note 23-13 The nIO_SMI pin is inactive when the internal group SMI signal is inactive and when the SMI enable
bit (EN_SMI, bit 7 of the SMI_EN2 register) is '0'. When the output buffer type is OD, nIO_SMI pin
is floating when inactive; when the output buffer type is push-pull, the nIO_SMI pin is high when
inactive.
Note 23-14 Bit3 of the PME_STS5 register may be set on a VCC POR. If GP53 is configured as input, then the
corresponding PME status bits will be set on a VCC POR. These bits are R/W but have no effect on
circuit operation.
Note 23-15 These bits are R/W but have no effect on circuit operation.

Note:
25.1.1
Stresses above those listed above and below could cause permanent damage to the device. This is a
stress rating only and functional operation of the device at any other condition above those indicated in the
operation sections of this specification is not implied. When powering this device from laboratory or system
power supplies, it is important that the Absolute Maximum Ratings not be exceeded or device failure can
result. Some power supplies exhibit voltage spikes on their outputs when the AC power is switched on or
off. In addition, voltage transients on the AC power line may appear on the DC output. If this possibility
exists, it is suggested that a clamp circuit be used.

Resume Reset Signal Generation
nRSMRST signal is the reset output for the ICH resume well. This signal is used as a power on reset signal for the ICH.
The SCH3223 detects when VTR voltage raises above VTRIP, provides a delay before generating the rising edge of
nRSMRST. See definition of VTRIP on page 183.
This delay, tRESET_DELAY, (t1 on page 183) is nominally 350ms, starts when VTR voltage rises above the VTRIP trip
point. If the VTR voltage falls below VTRIP the during tRESET_DELAY then the following glitch protection behavior is
implemented:. When the VTR voltage rises above VTRIP, nRSMRST will remain asserted the full tRESET_DELAY after
which nRSMRST is deasserted.
On the falling edge there is minimal delay, tRESET_FALL.
Timing and voltage parameters are shown in Figure 26-11 and Table 26-1.

Note the following details of the code protection feature on Microchip devices:
•
Microchip products meet the specification contained in their particular Microchip Data Sheet.
•
Microchip believes that its family of products is one of the most secure families of its kind on the market today, when used in the
intended manner and under normal conditions.
•
There are dishonest and possibly illegal methods used to breach the code protection feature. All of these methods, to our
knowledge, require using the Microchip products in a manner outside the operating specifications contained in Microchip’s Data
Sheets. Most likely, the person doing so is engaged in theft of intellectual property.
•
Microchip is willing to work with the customer who is concerned about the integrity of their code.
•
Neither Microchip nor any other semiconductor manufacturer can guarantee the security of their code. Code protection does not
mean that we are guaranteeing the product as “unbreakable.”
Code protection is constantly evolving. We at Microchip are committed to continuously improving the code protection features of our
products. Attempts to break Microchip’s code protection feature may be a violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If such acts
