VT8235M Version CD V-Link South Bridge
OVERVIEW
The VT8235M Version CD South Bridge is a high integration, high performance, power-efficient, and high compatibility device
that supports Intel and non-Intel based processor to V-Link bus bridge functionality to make a complete Microsoft PC2001compliant PCI/LPC system. The VT8235M Version CD includes standard intelligent peripheral controllers:
a) IEEE 802.3 compliant 10 / 100 Mbps PCI bus master Ethernet MAC with standard MII interface to external PHYceiver.
b) Master mode enhanced IDE controller with dual channel DMA engine and interlaced dual channel commands. Dedicated
FIFO coupled with scatter and gather master mode operation allows high performance transfers between PCI and IDE
devices. In addition to standard PIO and DMA mode operation, the VT8235M Version CD also supports the UltraDMA133, 100, 66, and 33 standards to allow reliable data transfer at rates up to 133 MB/sec. The IDE controller is SFF-8038i
v1.0 and Microsoft Windows-family compliant.
c) Universal Serial Bus controller that is USB v2.0 / 1.1 and Universal HCI v2.0 / 1.1 compliant. The VT8235M Version CD
includes three root hubs with six function ports with integrated physical layer transceivers. The USB controller allows hot
plug and play and isochronous peripherals to be inserted into the system with universal driver support. The controller also
implements legacy keyboard and mouse support so that legacy software can run transparently in a non-USB-aware operating
system environment.
d) Keyboard controller with PS2 mouse support.
e) Real Time Clock with 256 byte extended CMOS. In addition to the standard ISA RTC functionality, the integrated RTC also
includes the date alarm, century field, and other enhancements for compatibility with the ACPI standard.
f) Notebook-class power management functionality compliant with ACPI and legacy APM requirements. Multiple sleep states
(power-on suspend, suspend-to-DRAM, and suspend-to-Disk) are supported with hardware automatic wake-up. Additional
functionality includes event monitoring, CPU clock throttling and stop (Intel processor protocol), PCI bus clock stop control,
modular power, clock and leakage control, hardware-based and software-based event handling, general purpose I/O, chip
select and external SMI.
i) Plug and Play controller that allows complete steerability of all PCI interrupts and internal interrupts / DMA channels to any
interrupt channel. One additional steerable interrupt channel is provided to allow plug and play and reconfigurability of onboard peripherals for Windows family compliance.
The VT8235M Version CD also enhances the functionality of the standard ISA peripherals. The integrated interrupt controller
supports both edge and level triggered interrupts channel by channel. The integrated DMA controller supports type F DMA in
addition to standard ISA DMA modes. Compliant with the PCI-2.2 specification, the VT8235M Version CD supports delayed
transactions and remote power management so that slower ISA peripherals do not block the traffic of the PCI bus. Special
circuitry is built in to allow concurrent operation without causing dead lock even in a PCI-to-PCI bridge environment. The chip
also includes eight levels (doublewords) of line buffers from the PCI bus to the ISA bus to further enhance overall system
performance.

Core Power. 2.5V ±5%. This supply is turned on only when the mechanical switch on
the power supply is turned on and the PWRON signal is conditioned high. Note: The
VT8233A Version CE (VT8235ML) core voltage is 3.3V so board designs that are
intended to allow use of either VT8235M Version CD or VT8233A Version CE
(VT8235ML) should take this difference into account and allow the core voltage to be
selected as either 2.5V (for the VT8235M Version CD) or 3.3V (for the VT8233A
Version CE / VT8235ML).
P Suspend Power. 3.3V ±5%. Always available unless the mechanical switch of the
power supply is turned off. If the “soft-off” state is not implemented, then this pin can be

REGISTERS
Register Overview
The following tables summarize the configuration and I/O
registers of the VT8235M Version CD. These tables also
document the power-on default value (“Default”) and access
type (“Acc”) for each register. Access type definitions used
are RW (Read/Write), RO (Read/Only), “—” for reserved /
used (essentially the same as RO), and RWC (or just WC)
(Read / Write 1’s to Clear individual bits). Registers indicated
as RW may have some read/only bits that always read back a
fixed value (usually 0 if unused); registers designated as
RWC or WC may have some read-only or read write bits (see
individual register descriptions for details).
Detailed register descriptions are provided in the following
section of this document. All offset and default values are
shown in hexadecimal unless otherwise indicated
