Description

PERR/

24

S/T/S

Parity Error may be pulsed active by an agent that detects a data parity
error. PERR/ can be used by any agent to signal data corruptions.

SERR/

143

O

System Error is an open drain output pin used to report address parity
errors. On detection of a PERR/ pulse, the central resource may generate
a nonmaskable interrupt to the host CPU, which often implies the system
is unable to continue operation once error processing is complete.
