Introduction
This document contains the electrical and the thermal specifications for the 82371AB (PIIX4). PIIX4 is a multi-
function PCI device implementing a PCI-to-ISA bridge function, a PCI IDE function, a Universal Serial Bus
Host/Hub function, and a Power Management function.
The contents of this document are based on simulation and parametric data. This information may be modified
as more data is available.

WARNING
: Stressing the device beyond the “Absolute MaximumRatings” may cause permanent damage. These are stress ratings
only. Operation beyond the “Operating Conditions” is not recommended and extended exposure beyond the “Operating Conditions”
may affect device reliability.
The 82371AB PIIX4 (BGA) is designed for operation at case temperatures between 0°C and 85°C. The thermal
resistances of the package are given in Table 1.
