3.10.9.7Switch S8E1- 4

Used to choose between 100 MHz and 133 MHz maximum operating frequency on the secondary interface when in the PCI-X mode. It has no meaning in the PCI mode.

When the bridge initially samples a b’1’ value on the S_PCIXCAP input, then all clients on the bus are capable of PCI-X 133 operation. The bridge then samples the S_SEL100 input to distinguish between the 66-100 MHz and the 100-133 MHz clock frequency ranges. When it detects a b’1’ value on the S_SEL100 input, the bus is initialized with the PCI-X 100 initialization pattern. When the value is b’0’, the PCI-X 133 initialization pattern is used. These two ranges allow adjustment of the clock frequency to account for bus loading conditions.

Since the internal PLL is bypassed in the PCI mode and the S_CLK input is used directly, the IBM 133 PCI-X Bridge R2.0 has no need to distinguish between the PCI 66 and PCI 33 modes. Therefore the bridge does not have an I/O pin for the M66EN signal on its secondary interface.
