3.1Signal Type Definitions

Type

Name

Description

 

 

 

 

 

 

IN

Input

The input pin is a standard input only signal.

 

 

 

OUT

Output

The output pin is a Totem Pole Output pin and is a standard

active driver.

 

 

 

 

 

T/S

Tri-State

The tri-state pin is a bidirectional, input/output pin.

 

 

 

 

 

The sustained tri-state pin is an active low tri-state signal owned

 

 

and driven by one agent at a time. The agent asserting the S/T/

S/T/S

Sustained Tri-State

S pin low must drive it high at least one clock cycle before

floating the pin. A new agent can only assert an S/T/S signal low

 

 

 

 

one clock cycle after it has been tri-stated by the previous

 

 

owner.

 

 

 

O/D

Open Drain

The open drain pin allows multiple devices to share this signal

as a wired-OR.

 

 

 

 

 

A/I

Analog Input

The analog input pin is used for analog input signals.

 

 

 

A/O

Analog Output

The analog output pin is used for analog output signals.

 

 

 

B

Bias

The bias pin is an input bias.

3.2.1Address and Data Signals

Symbol

Type

Name and Function

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Address and Data. The address and data lines are multiplexed on

 

 

the same PCI pins. A bus transaction consists of an address phase

 

 

followed by one or more data phases. During the address phase, the

 

 

address and data lines contain the 32-bit physical address. For I/O,

AD[31:0]

T/S

this is a byte address; for configuration and memory, it is a Dword

 

 

address. The 82559ER uses little-endian byte ordering (in other

 

 

words, AD[31:24] contain the most significant byte and AD[7:0]

 

 

contain the least significant byte). During the data phases, the address

 

 

and data lines contain data.

 

 

 

 

 

Command and Byte Enable. The bus command and byte enable

 

 

signals are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. During the address

C/BE[3:0]#

T/S

phase, the C/BE# lines define the bus command. During the data

phase, the C/BE# lines are used as Byte Enables. The Byte Enables

 

 

 

 

are valid for the entire data phase and determine which byte lanes

 

 

carry meaningful data.

 

 

 

 

 

Parity. Parity is even across AD[31:0] and C/BE[3:0]# lines. It is stable

 

 

and valid one clock after the address phase. For data phases, PAR is

 

 

stable and valid one clock after either IRDY# is asserted on a write

PAR

T/S

transaction or TRDY# is asserted on a read transaction.Once PAR is

 

 

valid, it remains valid until one clock after the completion of the current

 

 

data phase. The master drives PAR for address and write data

 

 

phases; and the target, for read data phases.
