    摘要: A method for blocking a request to a front side bus interconnected between a central processing unit (CPU) and a control chip includes the following steps. First, a bus ownership of the control chip is assigned via a bus priority signal line. Any request from the CPU to the front side bus is blocked when the control chip owns the bus ownership. Meanwhile, any request from the control chip to the front side bus is inhibited when the CPU is blocked from outputting any request to the front side bus.

    摘要: A data accessing system includes a host and a storage device. The host has a security setup function and includes a first identity code storage block. The host executes the security setup function to set a first identity code according to a second identity code, and the second identity code is stored into the first identity code storage block. The storage device has a security check function and includes a second identity code storage block to store the second identity code, and the storage device executes the security check function to determine if the host is allowed to access the storage device according to the first identity code.

    摘要: A method for a power management of a central processor unit is disclosed. The method is applied to when the central processor unit is in a low power state without snooping and a bus master signal is sent from a peripheral device. First, a South Bridge sends a control signal to a central processor unit to drive the central processor unit to enter a low power state allowing snooping. Afterward an arbiter of the North Bridge is enabled. If the bus master signal is sent from the peripheral device to the South Bridge, an arbiter of the South Bridge is also enabled. And then the bus master signal is snooped by the central processor unit and the data is transmitted. After the bus master signal is snooped and the data has been transmitted, the arbiters are disabled and the South Bridge drives the central processor unit to return to the low power state without snooping.

    摘要: A data transmission coordinating method is used between a central processing unit and a bridge chip of a computer system. By entering the computer system into a coordinating state, the data transmission coordinating method is executed. The bridge chip and the CPU are informed of maximum bit numbers of each other for data transmission therebetween via the front side bus. Then, a commonly operable maximum bit number for data transmission between the CPU and the bridge chip can be coordinated according to the first and second maximum bit numbers. Once the commonly operable maximum bit number is determined, the CPU is reset to operate with the commonly operable maximum bit number. The maximum bit numbers are those of bus transmission bandwidth or bus transmission speed.
