Attention
The term Reserved describes certain signals, bits, and registers
that should not be changed. Use of reserved areas can cause
compatibility problems, loss of data, or permanent damage to the
hardware. When the contents of a register are changed, the
state of the reserved bits must be preserved. When possible,
read the register first and change only the bits that must be
changed.

Description
The IBM Personal System/2 Hardware Interface Technical Reference
describes devices common to the PS/2* AT-bus system family.
The IBM ThinkPad 560/560E computer (hereafter called the 560,
ThinkPad computer, or computer) is a notebook-size computer that
features the AT* bus architecture. Each computer supports one
external diskette drive and one internal hard disk drive.
Programs can distinguish the foregoing models of computers from
other ThinkPad models by reading the system ID: Interrupt 15H,
function code (AH)=23H, (AL)=10H, returns (AL)=0EH for the
560/560E.
The system microprocessor contains an internal cache and cache
controller.
Figure 1-1 lists the model bytes, submodel bytes, and system clock
speed of the system board.

an output and a dc return) latches all dc outputs into a shutdown
state, with no hazardous condition to the power supply.
If an overvoltage fault occurs in the power supply, the power supply
latches all dc outputs into a shutdown state before any output
exceeds 135% of the nominal value of the power supply.
Voltage Sequencing
When power is turned on, the output voltages reach their operational
voltages within 2 seconds.

Description
This section describes the microprocessor, connectors, memory
subsystems, and miscellaneous system functions and ports for the
ThinkPad computers. You can find additional information about
these topics in IBM Personal System/2 Hardware Interface Technical
Reference–AT-Bus Subsystems.
Microprocessor
The ThinkPad 560 uses the Intel Pentium 100/120/133MHz
microprocessor. This microprocessor contains a full 32-bit RISC
integer core, a built-in math coprocessor, and a 16KB internal cache
memory.
The ThinkPad 560E uses the Intel Pentium 150/166MHz
microprocessor with the MMX technology. This microprocessor
contains a full 32-bit RISC integer core, a built-in math coprocessor,
and a 32KB on-chip cache memory.
Cache Memory Operation
The cache memory in the Intel Pentium microprocessor enables the
microprocessor to read instructions and data much faster than if the
microprocessor had to access system memory. When an instruction
is first used or data is first read or written, it is transferred to the
cache memory from main memory. This enables future accesses to
the instructions or data to occur much faster.
The cache is disabled and empty when the microprocessor comes
out of the reset state. The cache is tested and enabled during the
power-on self-test (POST).
The cache memory in the Intel Pentium microprocessor is loaded
from system memory in 32-byte increments, each referred to as a
cache line. A cache line is aligned on a paragraph boundary. A
reference to any byte contained in a cache line results in the entire
line being read into the cache memory (if the data was not already in
the cache). When the microprocessor gives up control of the system
bus, the cache memory enters “snoop” mode and monitors all write
and read operations. If memory data is written to a location in the
cache and the cache line is in the “modified” state, the corresponding
cache line is written back to system memory and is invalidated.
2-2 ThinkPad 560/560E System Board
When the microprocessor performs a memory read, the data address
is used to find the data in the cache. If the data is found (a hit), it is
read from the cache memory and no external bus cycle occurs. If
the data is not found (a miss), an external bus cycle is used to read
the data from system memory. If the address of the missed data is
in a cacheable address space, the data is stored in the cache
memory and the remainder of the cache line is read.
When the microprocessor performs a memory write, the data
address is used to search the cache. If the address is found (a hit),
the data is written to the cache and no external bus cycle is used to
write the data to system memory. (If the address of the write
operation was not in the cache memory but was in cacheable
address space, the data is read back into the cache memory and the
remainder of the cache line is read.)
Cacheable Address Space
Cacheable address space is defined as system memory that resides
on the system board (0–640KB and 1MB–40MB or 80MBñ). Nothing
in address range hex A0000–BFFFF, I/O address space, or memory
in any AT slot is cached.
ROM address space (hex C0000–C7FFF) is L1 cacheable for code
read operations only. If data in this address range is already in
cache memory and the address range is written to, the cached line is
invalidated and is read again from RAM (in which the BIOS is
shadowed in).
ñ
Cacheability of system memory is up to 64MB in the L2 cache, and is up to 4GB in
the on-chip L1 cache.
ThinkPad 560/560E System Board 2-3
Keyboard/Mouse Connector
Each ThinkPad computer has a keyboard/mouse connector where
the IBM mouse, keyboard, or numeric keypad is connected.
Signals
The keyboard and mouse signals are driven by open-collector drivers
pulled to 5 V dc through a pull-up resistor. Figure 2-1 lists the
signals.

Memory
The ThinkPad computers use the following types of memory:
Read-only memory (ROM)
Random access memory (RAM)
Real-time clock/complementary metal-oxide semiconductor RAM
(RT/CMOS RAM)
ROM Subsystem
The ROM subsystem consists of four banks of 128KB memory.
ROM is active when power is turned on and is assigned to the top of
the first and last 1MB of address space (hex 000F0000–000FFFFF
and hex FFFF0000–FFFFFFFF). After POST checks that system
memory is operating correctly, the ROM code is copied to RAM at
the same address space, and ROM is disabled.
RAM Subsystem
The RAM subsystem on the system board starts at address
hex 00000000 of the address space. The RAM subsystem for the
ThinkPad 560 is 64 bits wide.
The 8MB (ThinkPad 560) or 16MB (ThinkPad 560E) base memory is
on the system board. One 144-pin 8-byte dual inline memory
module (DIMM) connector is provided on the system board. This
connector accepts a 8MB, 16MB, 32MB, or 64MB1 DIMM. The
memory capacity can be increased up to 40MB (ThinkPad 560) or
80MB (ThinkPad 560E) when a DIMM is used (see “System Board
Memory Connector for DIMM” on page 2-14).
The total amount of usable memory is less than the amount of
memory installed because of ROM-to-RAM remapping and power
management.

RT/CMOS RAM
The RT/CMOS RAM (real-time clock/complementary metal-oxide
semiconductor RAM) module contains the real-time clock and 128
bytes of CMOS RAM. The clock circuitry uses 14 bytes of this
memory; the remainder is allocated to configuration and
system-status information. A battery is built into the module to keep
the RT/CMOS RAM active when the power supply is not turned on.
Figure 2-12 lists the RT/CMOS RAM bytes and their addresses.

RT/CMOS Address and NMI Mask Register (Hex 0070)
The NMI mask register is used with the RT/CMOS data register (hex
0071) to read from and write to the RT/CMOS RAM bytes.

RT/CMOS RAM I/O Operations
During I/O operations to the RT/CMOS RAM addresses, you should
mask interrupts to prevent other interrupt routines from changing the
RT/CMOS address register before data is read or written. After I/O
operations, you should leave the RT/CMOS address and NMI mask
register (hex 0070) pointing to status register D (hex 00D).
Attention
The operation following a write to hex 0070 should access hex
0071; otherwise, intermittent failures of the RT/CMOS RAM can
occur.
Writing to the RT/CMOS RAM requires the following:
1. Write the RT/CMOS RAM address to the RT/CMOS address and
NMI mask register (hex 0070).
2. Write the data to the RT/CMOS data register (hex 0071).
3. Write the address, hex 0F, to the RT/CMOS and NMI mask
register; this leaves hex 0070 pointing to the shutdown status
byte (hex 0F).
4. Read address hex 0071 to restore the RT/CMOS.
Reading from the RT/CMOS RAM requires the following steps:
1. Write the RT/CMOS RAM address to the RT/CMOS and NMI
mask register (hex 0070).
2. Read the data from the RT/CMOS data register (hex 0071).
3. Write the address, hex 0F, to the RT/CMOS and NMI mask
register; this leaves hex 0070 pointing to the shutdown status
byte (hex 0F).
4. Read address hex 0071 to restore the RT/CMOS.

Miscellaneous System Functions and Ports
This section provides information about nonmaskable interrupts
(NMIs), the power-on password, and hardware compatibility.
Nonmaskable Interrupt (NMI)
The NMI signals the system microprocessor that a parity error or a
channel check timeout has occurred. This situation can cause lost
data or an overrun error on some I/O devices. The NMI masks all
other interrupts. The interrupt return (IRET) instruction restores the
interrupt flag to the state it was in before the interrupt occurred. A
system reset causes a reset of the NMI.
The NMI requests from system board parity and channel check are
subject to mask control with the NMI mask bit in the RT/CMOS
Address register. See “RT/CMOS Address and NMI Mask Register
(Hex 0070)” on page 2-17. The power-on default of the NMI mask is
1 (NMI disabled). Before the NMI is enabled after a power-on reset,
the parity-check states are initialized by POST.
Attention
The operation following a write to hex 0070 should access hex
0071; otherwise, intermittent failures of the RT/CMOS RAM can
occur.

Bit 1
This bit is used to enable the ‘address 20’ signal (A20)
when the microprocessor is in the real address mode.
When this bit is set to 0, A20 cannot be used in real
mode addressing. This bit is set to 0 during a system
reset.
Bit 0
This bit provides an alternative method of resetting the
system microprocessor. This alternative method
supports operating systems requiring faster operation
than that provided on the IBM Personal Computer AT.
Resetting the system microprocessor switches the
microprocessor from protected mode to real address
mode.
This bit is set to 0 by either a system reset or a write
operation. When a write operation changes this bit from
0 to 1, the ‘processor reset’ signal is pulsed after the
reset has occurred. While the reset is occurring, the
latch remains set so that POST can read this bit. If the
bit is set to 0, POST assumes that the system was just
powered on. If the bit is set to 1, POST assumes that
the microprocessor has been switched from protected
mode to real mode.
When bit 0 is used to reset the system microprocessor
to the real mode, use the following procedure:
1. Disable all maskable and nonmaskable interrupts.
2. Reset the system microprocessor by writing a 1 to
bit 0.
3. Issue a Halt instruction to the system
microprocessor.
4. Reenable all maskable and nonmaskable interrupts.

If you do not follow this procedure, the results are
unpredictable.
Note: Whenever possible, use BIOS as an interface to
reset the system microprocessor to the real
mode. For more information about resetting the
system microprocessor, refer to the IBM Personal
System/2 and Personal Computer BIOS
Interface.
Power-On Password
RT/CMOS RAM has 8 bytes reserved for the power-on password
and the check character. The 8 bytes are initialized to hex 00. The
microprocessor can access these bytes only during POST. After
POST is completed, if a power-on password is installed, the
password bytes are locked and cannot be accessed by any program.
During power-on password installation, the password (1 to 7
characters) is stored in the security space.
Installing the password is a function of the built-in system program
Easy-Setup. The power-on password does not appear on the screen
when it is installed, changed, or removed. After the power-on
password has been installed, it can be changed or removed only
during POST.
The computer also can have a keyboard password. For more
information, see the keyboard and auxiliary device controller section
of the IBM Personal System/2 Hardware Interface Technical
Reference.
Selectable Drive-Startup Sequence
Selectable drive-startup (selectable boot) allows you to control the
startup sequence of the drives in your computer. The order in which
the computer looks for the drives for your operating system is the
drive-startup sequence. If you are working with multiple operating
systems, you might want to change the drive-startup sequence to
load the operating system from the hard disk without first checking
the diskette drive, or to do a remote program load (RPL).
ThinkPad 560/560E System Board 2-29
Attention
When changing your startup sequence, you must be extremely
careful when doing write operations (such as copying, saving, or
formatting). Your data or programs can be overwritten if you
select the wrong drive.
For more information about the selectable drive-startup sequence,
refer to the ThinkPad User's Guide.
Hardware Compatibility
The computer supports most of the interfaces used by the IBM
Personal Computer AT* and the Personal System/2* (PS/2*)
products. In many cases, command and status organization of these
interfaces are maintained.
The functional interfaces for the computer are compatible with the
following:
The Intel 8259 interrupt controllers (edge trigger mode).
The Intel 8254 timers driven from 1.193 MHz (channels 0, 1, and
2).
The Intel 8237 DMA controller-address/transfer counters, page
registers, and status fields only. The command and request
registers, and the rotate and mask functions, are not supported.
The mode register is partially supported.
The NS16550 serial communications controller.
The Intel Pentium microprocessor (ThinkPad 560) or
the Intel Pentium processor with the MMX technology (ThinkPad
560E).
The Intel 8086**, 8088**, 80286**, 80386**, and i486DX
microprocessors.
The Intel 8087**, 80287**, 80387** math coprocessors.
The Intel 82077AA** diskette drive controller.
The keyboard interface at addresses hex 0060 and hex 0064.
Display modes supported by the IBM Monochrome Display and
Printer Adapter, the IBM Color/Graphics Monitor Adapter, and the
IBM Enhanced Graphics Adapter.

A-2 ThinkPad 560/560E SMAPI BIOS
What is SMAPI BIOS?
The ThinkPad Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) provides a special
software interface, called the System Management Application
Program Interface (SMAPI) BIOS, to control the following unique
features of the ThinkPad system:
System Information
This BIOS provides unique ThinkPad information, such as
the system identifier (system ID).
System Configuration
The ThinkPad SMAPI BIOS provides system configuration
control for such features as display device selection or
resource configuration for built-in devices.
Power Management
Through the SMAPI BIOS, the operating system or
application software can control the ThinkPad power
management features (the Power mode or
Suspend/Hibernation/Resume options).
“Header Image” on page A-4 describes how to use the SMAPI BIOS.
ThinkPad 560/560E SMAPI BIOS A-3
Header Image
Systems that support SMAPI BIOS must provide the following header
image in the F000 segment system ROM area at the 16-byte
boundary. The client needs to search and find this SMAPI BIOS
header image to get the entry point for the service.

Length
The length of the header image.
Checksum Checksum byte area. The client verifies that this
header image is valid by using this checksum; the client
should check all header image bytes, and the result will
be zero bytes.

Bit 3-15 : Reserved
Real Mode Entry Point
The entry point is specified in segment, offset format.
Clients using Real/V86 mode can use this area for the
far-call value.
16-bit/32-bit Protected Mode Entry Point
The code base code address specifies the physical
address for this BIOS, and the client must prepare the
selector for this BIOS. The length should be 64KB.
ThinkPad 560/560E SMAPI BIOS A-5
Calling Convention
The client can invoke the SMAPI BIOS with a far-call to the entry
point that is specified in the header file. All parameters for the BIOS
and other results are stored in the client data area; the client needs
to prepare an input parameter / output parameter area in its data
area, and informs this area by pushing those pointers onto the its
stack before the far-calls.
The SMAPI BIOS uses the stack/data area directly with the selector
when the BIOS is invoked. Therefore, the caller needs to define the
same privilege level as the BIOS.
Parameter Structure
The memory allocation for the input/output field should be prepared
by the caller. The input field specifies the function request to the
SMAPI BIOS, and the BIOS fills in the return value to the output
field.
