PORT 92 FAST GATEA20 AND KEYBOARD RESET

Port 92 Register

This port can only be read or written if Port 92 has been enabled via bit 2 of the KRST_GA20 Register (Logical

Device 7, 0xF0) set to 1.

This register is used to support the alternate reset (nALT_RST) and alternate A20 (ALT_A20) functions.

ALT_A20 Signal control. Writing a 0 to this bit causes the ALT_A20 signal to be

driven low. Writing a 1 to this bit causes the ALT_A20 signal to be driven high.

Alternate System Reset. This read/write bit provides an alternate system reset

function. This function provides an alternate means to reset the system CPU to

effect a mode switch from Protected Virtual Address Mode to the Real Address

Mode. This provides a faster means of reset than is provided by the Keyboard

controller. This bit is set to a 0 by a system reset. Writing a 1 to this bit will cause

the nALT_RST signal to pulse active (low) for a minimum of 1 µs after a delay of

500 ns. Before another nALT_RST pulse can be generated, this bit must be written

back to a 0.

Bit 0 of Port 92, which generates the nALT_RST signal, is used to reset the CPU under program control. This signal

is AND’ed together externally with the reset signal (nKBDRST) from the keyboard controller to provide a software

means of resetting the CPU. This provides a faster means of reset than is provided by the keyboard controller.

Writing a 1 to bit 0 in the Port 92 Register causes this signal to pulse low for a minimum of 6µs, after a delay of a

minimum of 14µs. Before another nALT_RST pulse can be generated, bit 0 must be set to 0 either by a system reset

of a write to Port 92. Upon reset, this signal is driven inactive high (bit 0 in the Port 92 Register is set to 0).

If Port 92 is enabled, i.e., bit 2 of KRST_GA20 is set to 1, then a pulse is generated by writing a 1 to bit 0 of the Port

92 Register and this pulse is AND’ed with the pulse generated from the 8042. This pulse is output on pin KRESET

and its polarity is controlled by the GPI/O polarity configuration.
