Notes:

1.  Some power supplies with wider than +/- 5% accuracy would cause reset issues
2.  Allows for compensation of differences in individual Diode Junctions
3.  Second floppy (B) is seldom used, so this is now an optional thermal output
4.  Resume Reset and Power OK 1 & 2
5.  Rev H has PCIRST 1 through 4 (4 is not enabled by default)
    Rev I has PCIRST 1 through 5 (all are enabled by default)
6.  PCIRSTIN# is muxed on pin91 and controlled by Index 2Ch[1].
    The outputs of PCIRST3# and PCIRST5# are (LRESET# AND PCIRSTIN#).
7.  Via power-on strapping.  Threshold value Vih/Vil = 0.8V/0.4V
8.  Modified PWROK signals with AND gated ATXPG x PSIN
9.  Power-on Strapping selects either 100% duty cycle for PWM
    -or- Startup at 100% and drop to 50% for noise reduction
10. If Temperature is Above "or" below range, interrupt is generated
    In previous versions, Interrupt was only generated if above range
