Intel Desktop Board D845HV/D845WN Technical Product Specification
52
The ICH2 has eight programmable interrupt request (PIRQ) input signals. All PCI interrupt
sources either onboard or from a PCI add-in card connect to one of these PIRQ signals. Some PCI
interrupt sources are electrically tied together on the D845HV and D845WN boards and therefore
share the same interrupt. Table 17 shows an example of how the PIRQ signals are routed on the
D845HV and D845WN boards.
For example, using Table 17 as a reference, assume an add-in card using INTB is plugged into PCI
bus connector 3. In PCI bus connector 3, INTB is connected to PIRQB, which is already
connected to the SMBus. The add-in card in PCI bus connector 3 now shares interrupts with these
onboard interrupt sources.

NOTE
The ICH2 can connect each PIRQ line internally to one of the IRQ signals (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11,
12, 14, and 15). Typically, a device that does not share a PIRQ line will have a unique interrupt.
However, in certain interrupt-constrained situations, it is possible for two or more of the PIRQ
lines to be connected to the same IRQ signal.
