Error Handling
The SMBus slave interface handles two types of errors: internal and PEC.
Internal errors can occur when the target function is busy servicing a request from the PCI
Express* interface. The SMBus unit may time-out these transactions and return a NACK for the
read or write command. Additionally, an internal error can occur when the read or write command
receives a master or target abort on the internal interface. When the master receives a NACK, the
entire transaction must be reattempted.

read or write command. Additionally, an internal error can occur when the read or write command
receives a master or target abort on the internal interface. When the master receives a NACK, the
entire transaction must be reattempted.
When the master supports packet error checking (PEC), and the PEC enable bit in the command is
set, the PEC byte is checked in the slave interface. When the check indicates a failure, the slave
NACKs the PEC packet and does not issue the command on the internal interface.
set, the PEC byte is checked in the slave interface. When the check indicates a failure, the slave
NACKs the PEC packet and does not issue the command on the internal interface.
Note:
An SMBus master must either do PEC on all transactions in a sequence or not do it at all. PEC
cannot be disabled in the middle of a sequence. A PEC error in the middle of a sequence must be
re-started from the beginning of the sequence that set the begin bit.
