Control Logic The control logic consists of the modules on the system board that control access to main and cache memory by the microprocessor and I/O devices. Control logic includes the following devices and functions: Audio-port controller and interface (some models only) Bus-mastering IDE interface Counters and timers Direct memory access (DMA) controller Diskette-port controller and interface Interrupt controller Keyboard and mouse port controller and interface Memory (DRAM) controller Microprocessor-interface control Parallel-port controller and interface PCI-bus interface PCI-to-ISA interface Power-management controller Serial-port controller and interface USB-port controller and interface Microprocessors and Memory 7
