General Description
2. General Description
The IT8888G is a PCI to ISA bridge single function device. The IT8888G serves as a bridge between the PCI bus
and ISA bus. The IT8888G’s 32-bit PCI bus interface is compliant with PCI Specification V2.1 and supports both
PCI Bus Master & Slave. The PCI interface supports both programmable positive and full subtractive decoding
schemes.
The IT8888G also integrates two enhanced DMA Slave controllers for achieving PCI DMA cycles: PC/PCI DM A
Slave Controller & Distributed DMA Slave Controllers.
The IT8888G also implements the optional fast positive decode of F, E, D, C memory segments. This special
feature can provide a direct connection to an FALSH boot ROM.
The NOGO function, which is also implemented in the IT8888G for enabling or disabling subtractive decode of PCI
interface, could be a software controlled output pin from other host controlled devices. The Serial IRQ is also
implemented in the device for sending and receiving ISA IRQs & IOCHCK#. The device includes an ISA interface
which supports full ISA compatible functions.
The IT8888G is available in 160-pin TFBGA package.

Functional Description
5. Functional Description
The IT8888G provides full ISA interface to hook up on PCI bus, so that the existing legacy ISA devices
could be supported in new generation PC chipset architecture without ISA interface.
There are some sub-function blocks in the IT8888G as described below:
5.1 PCI Slave Interface
The IT8888G PCI Slave interface provides some positively decode space:
• IT8888G PCI configuration register spaces – positively decode w/ medium DEVSEL# speed on the
Type0 PCI configuration cycle, the access space is described in 6.2 Access Configuration Registers on
page 6-2.
• Six I/O positively decode spaces – defined in IT8888G Configuration Registers: Cfg_58h ~ Cfg_6Fh.
• Four Memory positively decode spaces – defined in IT8888G Configuration Registers: Cfg_70h ~
Cfg_7Fh.
• Optional I/O Port 80 Write Snooping.
• Optional F-segment BIOS claim w/ Fast DEVSEL# speed.
The IT8888G supports PCI 2.1 Delayed Transaction feature which can be enabled / disabled by
programming Cfg_50h<1>. The benefit of Delayed Transaction is that the PCI bus is still available and
can be used by other PCI master, even when there is an ISA PIO cycle in progress behind IT8888G.
When Delayed Transaction is enabled, the IT8888G will retry the PCI-to-ISA cycle claimed by IT8888G
and latch those address / command / byte-combination, and issues ISA cycle. When the ISA site is not
finished, the PCI Slave interface of IT8888G will still retry any PCI cycle. Once the ISA cycle is finished,
the PCI Slave interface will wait the same PCI cycle (same address / command / Byte-enable) and
terminate it normally with TRDY# asserted. But before that, the other PCI cycle with different address or
command or Byte-enable still will be retried.
If the original PCI bus masters after retried never issue the same cycle within the programmed DISCARD
Timer, the IT8888G will discard that ISA transaction, so that the IT8888G is able to respond to other PCI
transactions without locking its ISA bus interface. Please refer to the Cfg_54h<15:8> in 6.3.11, the
Retry/Discard Timers of the Misc. Control Register on page 6-16 for the setting of Discard Timer. There is
an option to report System Error via asserting SERR#.
The IT8888G also supports Exclusive access via LOCK# control. Please refer to PCI Specification
Revision 2.1, for more detailed description.
5.2 PCI Master Interface
The IT8888G will issue PCI cycle for ISA bus master cycle and DDMA memory cycle if those accesses
are forwarded to PCI bus. The Cfg_50h<23:12> define the decoding spaces for IT8888G to decide
forwarding the access of ISA bus master or DDMA controller to PCI bus or not.
When the accessed space is forwarding to PCI bus, the IT8888G will assert IREQ# to PCI bus arbiter if
the DACKn# source is DDMA. Once the IGNT# is asserted by PCI arbiter and the PCI bus is in idle state,
the PCI Master I/F of IT8888G will issue non-burst PCI Memory Read/Write cycles or PCI I/O Read/Write
cycles (if Cfg_50h<23>=1). In the mean time, the IOCHRDY will be de-asserted to insert wait-state until
forwarding cycle is finished on PCI site.
When in PC/PCI DMA (PPDMA) cycle, the DACKn# is decoded from PPDGNT#, and the IT8888G will not
issue IREQ#. As long as the PPDGNT# and MASTER# signal are asserted and there exist an ISA
command issued by ISA master, then the PCI Master I/F of IT8888G will issue a PCI cycle for ISA master
if the accessed space is located on PCI bus.
Whenever the PCI Master I/F of IT8888G is retried, it will release PCI bus ownership and re-arbiter and
re-issue the same transaction. But if the same retry occurs too many times and exceeds the Retry Timer
limitation, then the PCI Master I/F will stop trying and there is an option to report System Error via
asserting SERR#. Please refer to Cfg_54h<7:0> in 6.3.11 Retry/Discard Timers, Misc. Control Register
www.ite.com.tw IT8888G V0.9
13
I
T8888G
on page 6-16 for more detailed Retry Timer setting.
5.3 PCI Parity
The IT8888G, like other standard PCI devices, can handle parity error and other errors. Whenever the
IT8888G detects address parity error, it is able to assert SERR# if the SERR# reporting mechanism is
enabled in PCI Command/Status register.
Also when IT8888G acts as a PCI slave, it will check the data parity of writing in data; when IT8888G acts
as a PCI master, it will check the data parity of reading back data. Once it detects a data parity error, it
can report data parity error and assert PERR# if the PERR# reporting mechanism is enabled in PCI
Command/Status register.
5.4 Positively Decode Spaces
The six positively decode I/O spaces can be programmed to claim PCI I/O cycle with Fast / Medium /
Slow / Subtractive DEVSEL# timing speed. In addition, the ISA I/O aliases can be set to support legacy
ISA card with non-fully decoded (only decodes with XA9~0). In other words, when alias is enabled for one
I/O space, then the addresses A15~A10 of the PCI access address will be ignored for the enabled I/O
space. All I/O spaces are limited under 64KB I/O size. IT8888G only claims I/O access with PCI address
A[31:16]=0000h. When programmed to subtractive decoding speed, IT8888G will claim PCI I/O access
only when whole chip Subtractive decode function is enabled (Cfg_50h<0>).
The four positively decode Memory spaces can also be programmed to claim PCI Memory cycle with Fast
/ Medium / Slow / Subtractive DEVSEL# timing speed. The memory space is not limited, i.e., even above
ISA 16MB size, if it is fall into IT8888G Memory positive decoding spaces, then it will be forwarded to ISA
bus with address A31~A24 ignored. So users must carefully claim memory spaces, since the mechanism
can support memory relocation. When programmed to subtractive decoding speed, IT8888G will claim
PCI Memory access only when whole chip Subtractive decode function is enabled (Cfg_50h<0>), but the
claimed space is restricted under memory space base/size setting, not limited to 16MB size.
5.5 Subtractive Decode
IT8888G supports subtractive decode. In general, the subtractive decode mechanism of PCI-to-PCI
Bridge chip is to respond to all non-claimed space. But for IT8888G, avoiding ISA space wrapped, it only
responses to the memory space under 16MB size (ISA only has 24-bit addressing ability) when
processing subtractive decode, except when the access space is hit to one of four positively decode
memory space with slowest DEVSEL# timing speed. And the IT8888G only responds to unclaimed PCI
I/O space under 64KB.
5.6 PC/PCI DMA (PPDMA) Slave Controller
The IT8888G, following the “ Mobile PC/PCI DMA Arbitration and Protocols MHPG Architecture
Functional Architectures Specification” by Intel Corporation, Revision 2.2, builds a PC/PCI DMA (PPDMA)
Slave which supports all 7 ISA DMA channels through a single PPDREQ# / PPDGNT# pair. It provides a
very low cost, low pin count mechanism. Please check the waveform for more details.
This protocol works as the followings: the IT8888G encodes the DMA channel request information on the
PPDREQ# line and decodes the PPDGNT#, which is output from PPDMA Host (in chipset), to assert the
DACKn# of the granted DMA channel to ISA bus.
The PPDMA protocol supports Single DMA, Demand DMA, but not Block DMA, nor software request
DMA transfers.
For PPDMA transfer, the PPDMA Host will separate Memory transaction portion from DMA operation,
and issues PCI I/O transaction to PPDMA Slave with PPDGNT# asserted and special address listed
below:

14
Functional Description
PCI I/O Address R/W IT8888G Operation
04h R/W Normal DMA operation with TC
C0h R DMA Verify operation without TC
C4h R DMA Verify operation with TC
The IT8888G PPDMA slave controller can handle the PCI Retry while it was granted the bus, it continues
to hold DACKn# active to ISA bus even when the PPDGNT# is removed. Also when the PCI Master I/F of
IT8888G issues cycle for ISA Master and is retried, PPDMA slave would re-send the PPDREQ# to advise
PPDMA Host to process Passive Release.
5.7 Distributed DMA (DDMA) Slave Controller
The IT8888G integrates two DMA controllers (8237) to build a 7-channel DDMA salve for DDMA function,
which comply with Distributed DMA Specification R6.0.
There are seven DMA channels in IT8888G. Each channel maps to different ISA DMA channel, i.e. DMA
channel 7~5, 3~0. Each channel can be treated as a separate DDMA salve, which has its own DDMA
channel base address and can be enabled / disabled separately.
To achieve compatibility with ISA, the DDMA channel 7~5 are fixed at 16-bit transfer width; the DDMA
channel 3~0 are fixed at 8-bit transfer width. Each channel supports 24 or 32 bits addressing. That is to
say, with IT8888G, the system OS or drivers can perform DMA operation to/from anywhere in 4GBmemory space, and is free from the limit of ISA 16MB memory space. When not using the high page
register, the system OS or drivers either write 00h or disable high page for dedicated channel.
In PC system, the DDMA Host is located in chipset, and it converts the address and data of legacy DMA
accesses (including transferring base address, word counter register, mode / command / mask /…
registers in I/O port 00h~1Fh, C0h~DFh and page registers in I/O port 8Xh~9Xh). This enables the
IT8888G will receive PCI I/O cycles with the address = programming register offset plus pre-configured
Base Address of dedicated DDMA slave channel. Please refer to 6.4 DDMA Slave Registers Description
on page 6-25 for DDMA Slave Register mapping. For detailed register descriptions of legacy DMA
controller, there are numerous manufactures’ data books that describe the functionality.
5.8 Type-F DMA Timing
The IT8888G also supports Type F DMA timing. Each DMA channel can be programmed to operate in
normal DMA timing or Type-F timing. For normal timing, the DDMA controller issuing I/O and Memory
commands or the PPDMA module issuing the DMA I/O command meet the DMA operating timing defined
in ISA Specification (IEEE P996 draft). Since the system memory bus is located behind ISA bus in legacy
IBM PC/AT architecture, the timing is very loose (slow). But for current PC architecture, the system
memory is located on Host bridge chip (or PCI North Bridge), thus DMA cycles can be operated faster to
achieve better ISA DMA performance.
5.9 ISA Bus I/O Recovery Time
The recovery time of back to back ISA I/O cycles is 1.5 BCLK (ISA System bus clock). The IT8888G
provides different I/O recovery time setting for 8-bit I/O cycles and 16-bit I/O cycles.
The configured 8-bit I/O recovery time is inserted after ISA I/F finishes the 8-bit I/O cycle, and the
configured 16-bit I/O recovery time is inserted after ISA I/F finishes the 16-bit I/O cycle. No additional
recovery time will be inserted due to byte conversion (PCI I/O cycle could be 8/16/24/32 bits, but ISA I/O
is only 8/16 bits).
5.10 ISA Bus Arbiter
The IT8888G internal ISA arbiter will handle and exclude DDMA cycle, Refresh cycle and PIO cycle from
PCI bus to optimize the ISA bus utilization.
To achieve PCI/ISA concurrency, there are some technologies to improve system performance: Delayed
Transaction, Passive Release and the “DDMA-Concurrent“ in the IT8888G design.
In legacy PC architecture, the CPU and PCI bus are held throughout the whole DMA operation even
www.ite.com.tw IT8888G V0.9

I
T8888G
when the DMA access space is onto ISA bus or when the forwarded PCI transaction requires just a few
PCI clocks to complete. IT8888G provides one option: DDMA-Concurrent cycle when DDMA operation
(Cfg_54h<31>). When enabled, the IT8888G will request PCI bus only when DDMA controller or ISA
master issued a transaction to be forwarded to PCI bus, and the IT8888G will release PCI bus after it
finished PCI bus cycle, even when the DDMA / ISA master still occupies ISA bus.
This is achieved by ISA arbiter, whenever DDMA occupy ISA bus, the PCI Slave will retry all PCI cycles
belonging to IT8888G, so that the PCI bus can be used by other PCI transactions.
The ISA Bus Refresh timer requests ISA memory REFRESH operation every 15.36µs which is divided
from PCI clocks by 512. The refresh module could be disabled by clearing Cfg_54h<26>.
5.11 SMB Boot ROM Configuration
In addition that the IT8888G configuration can be done by PCI Configuration cycles through system
chipset, the IT8888G also offers an optional configuration method via the System Management Bus (SMB,
similar to I2C BUS) Boot ROM. As the current version of IT8888G only supports single master mode,
users are prohibited to connect the IT8888G SMB interface to other system SMB bus. Only Serial
E2PROM can be connected, and the preset slave address is 1010000b.
The Serial E2PROM Data is grouped by each five bytes into the 1st byte, which serves as an index to
indicate which PCI Configuration register is. The other 4 bytes are the 32-bits data will be written to the
indexed register.

3 Data Cfg_??h<23:16>
2 Data Cfg_??h<15:8>
1 Data Cfg_??h<7:0>
0 Index = ??h Cfg_??h
Whether the chip will execute SMB Boot ROM Configuring Sequence or not is determined by one poweron-strap setting. Please refer to the Table 4-6 Power-On-Strap Settings on page 4-8. If SMB boot ROM
Configuration is enabled, the IT8888G will then set the SMB_In_Progress status bit (Cfg_50h<4>) on
page 6-12 and begin to issue the I2C Sequential Read Operation. It writes to PCI Configuration Registers
after it has finished reading every five bytes from SM ROM. If it reads an Index value as AA
, then it will
hex
stop I2C Sequential Read Operation and clear the SMB_In_Progress status bit. The system BIOS can
monitor the status bit to see if SMB is in progress before BIOS can decide to enable some computer
system sub-functions.
Conversely, if SMB boot ROM Configuration is disabled in power-on-strap setting, the IT8888G will then
clear the SMB_In_Progress status bit, and no I2C Sequential Read Operation occurs.
For instance, if users intend to claim a Memory space of 00F3XXXXh (64KB size) and one I/O space of
02ACh ~ 02ADh (2byte size) for a special ISA card (or users try to hook up the ISA device to PCI bus), a
Serial E2PROM can be programmed. The resulted data are listed on the next page:

C10002ACh to Cfg_64h when it finishes reading byte 5~9 of Serial E2PROM. After it receives an AAh in
the ROM position of 5xN (i.e. address of 5d, 10d, 15d, .. etc.), the SMB I/F stops fetching more data and
clear the SMB_In_Progress status bit.

5.12 Serialized IRQ
The IT8888G builds a Serialized IRQ slave which complies with Serialized IRQ Support for PCI system
R6.0.
The Serialized IRQ slave provides signal filtering and encoding logic for all ISA IRQ channels (IRQ [15:14,
12:9, 7:3] and IOCHCK#), which also supports both continuous and quite mode, and auto detect Start
Frame width and slot number.
5.13 NOGO and CLKRUN#
The IT8888G also supports NOGO function, which is MUX-ed with the CLKRUN# signal (selected by
Cfg_54h<20>).
The NOGO is an input and controlled by chipset to disable the subtractive decode mechanism of the
IT8888G, since there is only one subtractive decode device present on PCI bus. For short term, system
manufacturers may use GPIO of chipset to control the NOGO pin of the IT8888G to boot up system, but
the IT8888G also provides a mechanism to turn on/off the subtractive decode. And it will not be affected
by DMA operation, nor by Delayed transaction.
The IT8888G supports CLKRUN# function to reduce system power consumption when no PCI activity in
progress. The CLKRUN# function follows the protocol defined in PCI Mobile Design Guide, Revision 1.0.
But since the ISA system clock is divided from PCICLK, if some ISA cards still need ISA bus clock all the
time, then the user should leave the Cfg_54<27> stay on default value of one. Thus the IT8888G will
monitor system CLKRUN# signal and keep PCICLK running; otherwise, the IT8888G will only claim
CLKRUN# when ISA Master / DMA requests service or for the DMA service duration, or when the
Serialized IRQ module detects the status change on any ISA interrupt requests.

Functional Description
5.14 Optional FLASH ROM Interface
The IT8888G provides ROM decoding and write protect. The ROM chip select can be decoded by
programming versatile Cfg_50h<31:24> settings through segments C to F under 1MB and the top 1MB of
4GB. The ROM decoding logic provides ROMCS# signal (which is shared with IRQ14 signal, selected by
the internal logic, i.e., when the ROM decoding related Configuration register settings are enabled, the pin
54 will be ROMCS# output automatically; otherwise, it will be IRQ14 input). The PCI Slave I/F needs to
claim PCI memory space either by configuring four positively decoding spaces or by setting IT8888G in
the subtractive decode mode, except in the power-on-strap settings: F-segment setting (BALE).
If F-segment is set as positively decode, the IT8888G will only do fast DEVSEL# decoding speed and
ROMCS# is generated automatically. Its space is F-segment of both 1MB top and 4GB top. Once the
ROM is not on ISA interface, the IT8888G will disable F-segment fast decoding itself.
5.15 Testability
The IT8888G provides several test modes, which are aimed for chip testing, not for system testing.

Normal Operation

Reserved 0 1 1 1
Tri-State Test:
This test mode tri-states all outputs and bi-directional buffers, including the NAND chain outputs, BCLK
and RSTDRV.
NAND Chain Test:
The IT8888G builds the NAND Chain test mode. This test mode tri-states all outputs and bi-directional
buffers, except for BCLK and RSTDRV, and all the other output buffers are configured as inputs in NAND
Chain test mode and are included in the NAND chain. The first input of the NAND chain is DACK2#. The
NAND chain is routed counter-clockwise around the chip (e.g., DACK2#, DACK1#, DACK0#, DREQ7,…).
The BCLK is an intermediate output, and the RSTDRV is the final output. PCIRST#, AEN, DRQ1, DRQ0,
BCLK and RSTDRV pins are not included in the NAND chain. This testing method can be used to verify
chip package connectivity, VIH/VIL DC characteristics.

The IT8888G will respond to all PCI Bus Configuration cycles when the IDSEL input is asserted high.
Address bits 1-0 of the Configuration cycle are both zeros and address bits 10-8 correspond to internal
functions.

The configuration registers can be accessed as byte, word (16 bits) or Double-Word (32 bits) quantities or
any byte combination. In all of these accesses, only byte enables are used, AD[1:0] is always 00b when
accessing the configuration registers. All multi-byte fields use "little-endian" ordering (that is, lower
addresses contain the least significant parts of the fields). Registers that are marked “Reserved” will be
decoded and return zeros when read. All bits defined as “Reserved” within IT8888G’s PCI Configuration
Registers will be read as zero and will be unaffected by writes, unless specifically documented otherwise.
The software can use the PCI Configuration Mechanism One to read or write the IT8888G PCI
configuration register space. The PCI Configuration Mechanism One utilizes two 32-bit I/O ports located
at addresses 0CF8h and 0CFCh. These two ports are:
1. INDEX Port: 32-bit wide, occupying I/O address 0CF8h through 0CFBh.
2. DATA Port: 32-bit wide, occupying I/O address 0CFCh through 0CFFh.

Register Description
Accessing any PCI configuration register is a two-step process:
Step 1: Perform I/O writes of the bus number, physical device number, function number, and register
index number to the PCI Configuration Mechanism One INDEX Port. (The motherboard chipset will
decode the bus number, device number and then generate the IDSEL signal to select the device. The
device then decodes the function number to select which bank of register to be accessed and decodes
the register index number to select which double-word register will be accessed.)
Step 2: Perform an I/O read from or write to the PCI Configuration Mechanism One DATA Port. The PCI
Configuration Mechanism One INDEX & Data Port format is illustrated below:
