10.6.2.1.5 Control Bus<br />

Functional Description<br />

Communication to SDVO registers and if used, ADD2 PROMs and monitor DDCs, are<br />

accomplished by using the SDVO_CTRLDATA and SDVO_CTRLCLK signals through the<br />

SDVO device. These signals run up to 1 MHz and connect directly to the SDVO device. The<br />

SDVO device is then responsible for routing the DDC and PROM data streams to the appropriate<br />

location. Consult SDVO device datasheets for level shifting requirements of these signals.<br />

Intel ® SDVO Modes<br />

The GMCH port can be dynamically configured in the Standard, Extended, and Dual Standard<br />

modes. Refer to Section 10.4.2 for details.<br />

10.6.3 Multiple Display Configurations<br />

Microsoft Windows* 2000 and Windows* XP operating systems have enabled support for multimonitor<br />

display. Since the GMCH has several display ports available for its two pipes, it can<br />

support up to two different images on different display devices. Timings and resolutions for these<br />

two images may be different. The GMCH (see note) supports Intel ® Dual Display Clone, Intel<br />

Dual Display Twin, Intel Dual Display Zoom, and Extended Desktop.<br />

Intel Dual Display Clone uses both display pipes to drive the same content, at the same resolution<br />

and color depth to two different displays. This configuration allows for different refresh rates on<br />

each display.<br />

Intel Dual Display Twin uses one of the display pipes to drive the same content, at the same<br />

resolution, color depth, and refresh rates to two different displays.<br />

Intel Dual Display Zoom uses both display pipes to drive different content, at potentially different<br />

resolutions, refresh rates, and color depths to two different displays. This configuration results in<br />

a portion of the primary display to be zoomed in on and displayed on the secondary display.<br />

Extended desktop uses both display pipes to drive different content, at potentially different<br />

resolutions, refresh rates, and color depths to two different displays. This configuration allows for<br />

a larger Windows desktop by using both displays as a work surface.<br />

Note: The 82<strong>945G</strong>/82<strong>945G</strong>C GMCH IGD is Not capable of operating in parallel with an external PCI<br />

<strong>Express</strong> graphics device. The GMCH can, however, work in conjunction with a PCI graphics<br />

adapter. <strong>Intel®</strong> Extended Desktop and Dual Display Zoom feature is supported with the 82<strong>945G</strong><br />

GMCH only. <strong>Intel®</strong> Dual Display Clone and Dual Display Twin are supported with the 82<strong>945G</strong>,<br />

82<strong>945G</strong>C, and the 82<strong>945G</strong>Z<br />
