Overview 32580B
1.0Overview
1.1 General Description
The AMD Geode™ SC2200 processor is a member of the
AMD Geode processor family of fully integrated x86 system
chips. The SC2200 processor includes:
•The Geode GX1 processor module combines advanced
CPU performance with MMX™ support, fully acceler-
ated 2D graphics, a 64-bit synchronous DRAM
(SDRAM) interface, a PCI bus controller, and a display
controller.
•A low-power CRT and TFT Video Processor module with
a Video Input Port (VIP), and a hardware video acceler-
ator for scaling, filtering, and color space conversion.
•The Core Logic module includes: PC/AT functionality, a
USB interface, an IDE interface, a PCI bus interface, an
LPC bus interface, Advanced Configuration Power Inter-
face (ACPI) version 1.0 compliant power management,
and an audio codec interface.
•The SuperI/O module has: three Serial Ports (UART1,
UART2, and UART3 with fast infrared), a Parallel Port,
two ACCESS.bus (ACB) interfaces, and a Real-Time
Clock (RTC).
These features, combined with the device’s low power con-
sumption, enable a small form factor design making it ideal
as the core for a thin client application.
Figure 1-1 shows the relationships between the modules.

2.0Architecture Overview
As illustrated in Figure 1-1 on page 13, the SC2200 pro-
cessor contains the following modules in one integrated
device:
•GX1 Module:
— Combines advanced CPU performance with MMX
support, fully accelerated 2D graphics, a 64-bit
synchronous DRAM (SDRAM) interface and a PCI
bus controller. Integrates GX1 silicon revision 8.1.1.
•Video Processor Module:
— A low-power CRT and TFT support module with a
video input port, and a hardware video accelerator
for scaling, filtering and color space conversion.
•Core Logic Module:
— Includes PC/AT functionality, an IDE interface, a
Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface, ACPI 1.0
compliant power management, and an audio codec
interface.
•SuperI/O Module:
— Includes two Serial Ports, an Infrared (IR) Port, a
Parallel Port, two ACCESS.bus interfaces, and a
Real-Time Clock (RTC).
2.1 GX1 Module
The GX1 processor (silicon revision 8.1.1) is the central
module of the SC2200. For detailed information regarding
the GX1 module, refer to the AMD Geode™ GX1 Proces-
sor Data Book and the AMD Geode™ GX1 Processor Sili-
con Revision 8.1.1 Specification Update document.
The device ID of the SC2200 processor is contained in the
GX1 module. Software can detect the revision by reading
the DIR0 and DIR1 Configuration registers (see Configura-
tion registers in the AMD Geode™ GX1 Processor Data
Book). The AMD Geode™ SC2200 Processor Specifica-
tion Update document contains the specific values.
2.1.1 Memory Controller
The GX1 module is connected to external SDRAM devices.
For more information see Section 3.4.2 "Memory Interface
Signals" on page 54, and the “Memory Controller” chapter
in the AMD Geode™ GX1 Processor Data Book.
There are some differences in the memory controller of the
SC2200 processor and the standalone GX1 processor’s
memory controller:
1) There is drive strength/slew control in the SC2200 that
is not in the GX1. The bits that control this function are
in the MC_MEM_CNTRL1 and MC_MEM_CNTRL2
registers. In the GX1 processor, these bits are marked
as reserved.
2) The SC2200 supports two banks of memory. The GX1
supports four banks of memory. In addition, the
SC2200 supports a maximum of eight devices and the
GX1 supports up to 32 devices. With this difference,
the MC_BANK_CFG register is different.
Table 2-1 summarizes the 32-bit registers contained in the
SC2200’s memory controller. Table 2-2 gives detailed reg-
ister/bit formats.

17 SDCLKSTRT (Start SDCLK). Start operating SDCLK using the new ratio and shift value (selected in bits [20:18] of this reg-
ister).

16:8 RFSHRATE (Refresh Interval). This field determines the number of processor core clocks multiplied by 64 between refresh
cycles to the DRAM. By default, the refresh interval is 00h. Refresh is turned off by default.

four banks during refresh cycles:
00: 0 SDRAM clocks
01: 1 SDRAM clocks (Default)
10: 2 SDRAM clocks
11: 4 SDRAM clocks
Staggering is used to help reduce power spikes during refresh by refreshing one bank at a time. If only one bank is installed,
this field must be written as 00.
