8 mA PCI

Request indicates to the system
arbiter that this agent desires use of
the PCI bus. This is a point-to-point
signal. Every master has its own
REQ/ signal.

GNT/

N/A

Grant indicates to the agent that
access to the PCI bus has been
granted. This is a point-to-point
signal. Every master has its own

8 mA PCI

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 corruption.
However, 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.

SERR/

U11

O

8 mA PCI

System Error is an open drain output
used to report address parity errors
as well as critical errors other than
parity.
