Short for Accelerated Hub Architecture (also called
Intel Hub Architecture), Intel introduced this hub architecture starting
with the 820 chipset. The hub architecture divides control between a memory
controller hub (MCH) that
supports memory and AGP and an I/O controller hub (ICH)
that supports PCI, USB, sound, IDE and LAN. The word hub in Intel Hub
Architecture refers to the north and south bridges in a chipset. Intel has
replaced those two terms with the word hub.
