Description
GND
GROUND
The system ground pin. Internally connected to all circuitry. The
ground reference for all analog inputs and the DAC output. This pin
needs to be connected to a low noise analog ground plane for
optimum performance of the DAC output.

POWER
+3.3 V V+ power. Bypass with the parallel combination of 10 µF
(electrolytic or tantalum) and 0.1 µF (ceramic) bypass capacitors.
Interrupt active low open-drain output. This output is enabled when
Bit 1 in the Configuration Register is set to 1. The default state is
disabled. It has an on-chip 100 kΩ pullup resistor. Alternately used
as an active low output to signal SMBus Alert Response Protocol.
0 V to +2.5 V amplitude 8-bit DAC output. When forced high on
power up by an external voltage the NAND Tree Test mode is
enabled which provides board-level connectivity testing.
Master Reset, 5 mA driver (open-drain), active low output with a 20
ms minimum pulse width. Available when enabled via Bit 4 in the
Configuration register. It also acts as an active low power on
RESET input. It has an on-chip 100 kΩ pullup resistor.
Analog input for monitoring the cathode of the first external
temperature sensing diode.

Digitally programmable analog input for monitoring +2.5 V or the
anode of the second external temperature sensing diode.
Analog input (0 to 3.6 V input range) for monitoring Vccp1, the core
voltage of processore 1.
VID4/IRQ4-
VID0/IRQ0
20-24
Digitally programmable dual function digital inputs. Can be
programmed to monitor the VID pins of the Pentium/PRO and
Pentium II processors, that indicate the operating voltage of the
processor, or as interrupt inputs. The values are read in the
VID/Fan Divisor Register and the VID4 Register. These inputs have
on-chip 100 kΩ pullup resistors.
