Introduction
1 Introduction
The Intel® G35 Express Chipset is designed for use with the Intel® Core™2 Duo
desktop processor / Intel® Core™2 Quad desktop processor based platforms. The
chipset contains two components: 82G35 GMCH for the host bridge and I/O Controller
Hub 8 (ICH8) for the I/O subsystem. The 82G35 GMCH is part of the Intel® G35
Express Chipset. The ICH8 is the eight generation I/O Controller Hub and provides a
multitude of I/O related functions. Figure 1-1 shows an example system block diagram
for the Intel® G35 Express Chipset.
This document is the datasheet for the Intel® 82G35 Graphics and Memory Controller
Hub (GMCH). Topics covered include; signal description, system memory map, PCI
register description, a description of the GMCH interfaces and major functional units,
electrical characteristics, ballout definitions, and package characteristics.
Note: Unless otherwise specified, ICH8 refers to the Intel® 82801HB ICH8, 82801HR ICH8R,
82801HDH ICH8DH, 82801HDO ICH8DO, 82801HBM ICH8M, and 82801HEM ICH8M-E
I/O Controller Hub components.
