ICH9DO PCIe x4 Bus

The Intel® ICH9DO Southbridge chipset has six PCIe x1 lanes. The four PCIe lanes are

interfaced to one PCIe x4 slot on the IMB-Q354 motherboard.

One of the remaining PCIe x1 lanes is connected to an Intel® 82566DM GbE controller

and the other PCIe x1 lane is connected to an Intel® 82573L GbE controller.

ICH9DO Real Time Clock

256 bytes of battery backed RAM is provided by the Motorola MC146818B real time clock

(RTC) integrated into the ICH9DO. The RTC operates on a 3V battery and 32.768KHz

crystal. The RTC keeps track of the time and stores system data even when the system is

turned off.
