3.3 PCI Bus Interface Signals

The PCI Bus Interface Signals section contains tables describing the signals for the following signal groups: System Signals, Address and Data Signals, Interface Control Signals, Arbitration Signals, Error Reporting Signals, and Interrupt Signal.

3.3.1 System Signals

Table 3.2 describes the System signals.

N/A

Clock provides timing for all transactions on the PCI bus

 

 

 

 

 

 

and is an input to every PCI device. All other PCI signals

 

 

 

 

 

 

are sampled on the rising edge of CLK, and other timing

 

 

 

 

 

 

parameters are defined with respect to this edge. Clock

 

 

 

 

 

 

can optionally serve as the SCSI core clock, but this may

 

 

 

 

 

 

effect fast SCSI-2 (or faster) transfer rates.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

RST/

B6

I

N/A

Reset forces the PCI sequencer of each device to a

 

 

 

 

 

 

known state. All T/S and S/T/S signals are forced to a high

 

 

 

 

 

 

impedance state, and all internal logic is reset. The RST/

 

 

 

 

 

 

input is synchronized internally to the rising edge of CLK.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The CLK input must be active while RST/ is active to

 

 

 

 

 

 

properly reset the device.
