Hello everyone, today we are going to learn the distribution of each clock signal

2

00:00:06,100 --> 00:00:09,600

First of all, when the PCH power supply is normal,

3

00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,900

its 24MHz crystal oscillator will start to vibrate,

4

00:00:15,333 --> 00:00:19,566

providing a reference frequency to the clock module inside the PCH

5

00:00:20,366 --> 00:00:23,566

After the PCH reads the ME firmware,

6

00:00:25,833 --> 00:00:31,000

the internal clock module is initialized, and the PCH emits various clocks

7

00:00:32,166 --> 00:00:36,333

This includes the 100M clock frequency assigned to the CPU,

8

00:00:37,566 --> 00:00:43,633

24M clock frequency, and each PCIE bus clock and LPC bus clock

9

00:00:46,966 --> 00:00:52,566

During the maintenance, we usually measure the LPC bus clock and PCIE bus clock

10

00:00:52,566 --> 00:00:54,966

to determine whether the clock signal is normal

11

00:01:00,633 --> 00:01:06,433

Here, the 100M clock of the CPU, the 24M clock,

12

00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:12,166

and the LPC bus clock to the EC do not require a clock request signal,

13

00:01:13,700 --> 00:01:17,766

while the PCIE bus clock does require a request signal

14

00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:24,833

For example, a 100M PCIE bus clock signal is given to a graphics card

15

00:01:25,466 --> 00:01:29,866

The PCH will output the corresponding PCIE 100M clock

16

00:01:35,266 --> 00:01:39,500

only after receiving the REQ# request signal from the graphics card

17

00:01:43,133 --> 00:01:47,766

When the PCH receives the REQ# request signal from the network adapter,

18

00:01:48,866 --> 00:01:53,966

it issues the 100 MB PCIE bus clock required by the network adapter

19

00:01:56,833 --> 00:01:59,033

The request signals are low active

20

00:02:00,266 --> 00:02:03,333

Whoever pulls down, it is sent to it

21

00:02:04,033 --> 00:02:12,466

In addition, the 100M PCIE bus clock and the 100M clock and 24M clock required by the CPU

22

00:02:14,066 --> 00:02:17,066

These are all required by differential transmission,

23

00:02:18,433 --> 00:02:20,200

they are one-to-one pairs

24

00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,000

Ok, so that's the distribution of the clock signals
