ACC MicroTM
2087
2.6 Clock Throttling:
To further reduce the power consumption in the Notebook system, the ACC2087 supports another mode called
Clock Throttling. After scaling the CPU clock, the ACC2087 can periodically assert the STPCLK# request
which will force the CPU into Stop Grant State. Hence the CPU power can be further reduced.
2.7 Local Bus Peripheral Support
Master / DMA Mode and SMM Support in Local Bus Cycle
The ACC2087 supports VL-Bus with master and DMA modes. To further enhance the flexibility, the local bus
can be detected under System Management Mode (SMM).
The ACC2087 determines whether the cycle is a local bus cycle or not by detecting the existence of the local
bus cycle signal, signaled by a local bus device. When the ACC2087 Register 1Bh, bit 4, is set to one, pin 127
(READY0#, LBA#) becomes the LBA# pin. This pin is connected to the local bus device's local bus
acknowledge signal. When LBA# is asserted low, the ACC2087 will terminate all the bus cycles, and
relinquish the control to the local bus. The ACC2087 starts to sense the LBA# pin status from the end of T1
until the beginning of the ENABUS# as shown below.
