The I/O hub controller 1150 includes a variety of interfaces. The example of FIG. 11 includes a SATA interface 1151, one or more PCI-E interfaces 1152 (optionally one or more legacy PCI interfaces), one or more USB interfaces 1153, a LAN interface 1154 (more generally a network interface), a general purpose I/O interface (GPIO) 1155, a low-pin count (LPC) interface 1170, a power management interface 1161, a clock generator interface 1162, an audio interface 1163 (e.g., for speakers 1194), a total cost of operation (TCO) interface 1164, a system management bus interface (e.g., a multi-master serial computer bus interface) 1165, and a serial peripheral flash memory/controller interface (SPI Flash) 1166, which, in the example of FIG. 11, includes BIOS 1168 and boot code 1190. With respect to network connections, the I/O hub controller 1150 may include integrated gigabit Ethernet controller lines multiplexed with a PCI-E interface port. Other network features may operate independent of a PCI-E interface.
