Power Management (Continued)
5.3 POWER MANAGEMENT REGISTERS
The GXLV processor contains the power management
registers for the serial packet transmission control, the
user-defined power management address space, Sus-
pend Refresh, and SMI status for Suspend/Resume.
These registers are memory mapped (GX_BASE+8500h-
8FFFh) in the address space of the GXLV processor and
are described in the following sections. Refer to Section
4.1.2 “Control Registers” on page 99 for instructions on
accessing these registers.
Note, however, the PM_BASE and PM_MASK registers
are accessed with the CPU_READ and CPU_WRITE
instructions.
Refer
to
Section
4.1.6
“CPU_READ/CPU_WRITE Instructions” on page 102 for
more information regarding these instructions.
Table 5-1 summarizes the above mentioned registers.
Tables 5-2 and 5-3 give these register’s bit formats.

cessor.

PM Base Register: Contains the base address for the programmable memory
range decode. This register, in combination with the PM_MASK register, is used to
generate a memory range decode which sets bit 1 in the serial transmission packet.
PM_MASK
PM Mask Register: The address mask for the PM_BASE register

Reserved: These bits are not used. Do not write to these bits.
Reserved: Set to 0.
SMI_MEM
SMI VGA Emulation Memory: This bit is set high if a SMI was generated for VGA emulation in
response to a VGA memory access. An SMI can be generated on a memory access to one of three
regions in the A0000h to BFFFFh range as specified in the BC_XMAP_1 register. (See Table 4-9 on
page 104)

SMI_IO
SMI VGA Emulation I/O: This bit is set high if a SMI was generated for VGA emulation in response
to an I/O access. An SMI can be generated on a I/O access to one of three regions in the 3B0h to
3DFh range as specified in the BC_XMAP_1 register. (See Table 4-9 on page 104)
SMI_PIN
SMI Pin: When set high, this bit indicates that the SMI# input pin has been asserted to the
GXLV processor.
Note: These bits are “sticky” bits and can only be cleared with a write of ‘1’ to the respective bit.
