2.1
Host Interface Signals
Note: Unless otherwise noted, the voltage level for all signals in this interface is tied to 
the termination voltage of the Host Bus (V
TT
).
Signal Name
Type
Description
FSB_ADSB
I/O
GTL+
Address Strobe: The processor bus owner asserts FSB_ADSB 
to indicate the first of two cycles of a request phase. The MCH 
can assert this signal for snoop cycles and interrupt messages.
FSB_BNRB
I/O
GTL+
Block Next Request: Used to block the current request bus 
owner from issuing new requests. This signal is used to 
dynamically control the processor bus pipeline depth.
FSB_BPRIB
O
GTL+
Priority Agent Bus Request: The MCH is the only Priority 
Agent on the processor bus. It asserts this signal to obtain the 
ownership of the address bus. This signal has priority over 
symmetric bus requests and will cause the current symmetric 
owner to stop issuing new transactions unless the FSB_LOCKB 
signal was asserted.
FSB_BREQ0B
O
GTL+
Bus Request 0: The MCH pulls the processor bus’ 
FSB_BREQ0B signal low during FSB_CPURSTB. The processors 
sample this signal on the active-to-inactive transition of 
FSB_CPURSTB. The minimum setup time for this signal is 4 
HCLKs. The minimum hold time is 2 HCLKs and the maximum 
hold time is 20 HCLKs. FSB_BREQ0B should be tristated after 
the hold time requirement has been satisfied.
FSB_CPURSTB
O
GTL+
CPU Reset: The FSB_CPURSTB pin is an output from the MCH. 
The MCH asserts FSB_CPURSTB while RSTINB (PCIRST# from 
the ICH) is asserted and for approximately 1 ms after RSTINB 
is de-asserted. The FSB_CPURSTB allows the processors to 
begin execution in a known state.
FSB_DBSYB
I/O
GTL+
Data Bus Busy: Used by the data bus owner to hold the data 
bus for transfers requiring more than one cycle.
FSB_DEFERB
O
GTL+
Defer: Signals that the MCH will terminate the transaction 
currently being snooped with either a deferred response or with 
a retry response.
FSB_DINVB_[3:0]
I/O
GTL+ 4x
Dynamic Bus Inversion: Driven along with the 
FSB_DB_[63:0] signals. Indicates if the associated signals are 
inverted or not. FSB_DINVB_[3:0] are asserted such that the 
number of data bits driven electrically low (low voltage) within 
the corresponding 16 bit group never exceeds 8.

Data Ready: Asserted for each cycle that data is transferred.
