MAC Interface Registers (MIR Space)

The MAC Interface Unit Register (MIR) space contains 16 registers which are used by the firmware to allow communication between the firmware (MAC layer) and the device driver. This register set also contains the

MIR0: Processor Interface Register (PIR)

This register is used to communicate to and from the driver at the system interface.

power down registers. These registers are only accessi- ble through the 80188 core; they are inaccessible from the system interface.

SIDA

0

System Interface Direct Access. When SIDA is set to 1, then the

 

 

 

system interface side of the BIU is in direct memory access mode,

 

 

 

such that system interface access cycles will have direct access to

 

 

 

the Am79C930 memory interface. This mode should only be in-

 

 

 

voked if the 80188 will be placed into HALT mode by an appropriate

 

 

 

instruction within the 80188 firmware during the time that SIDA is

 

 

 

set to 1. When SIDA is reset to 0, then system interface accesses to

 

 

 

the Am79C930 memory interface will be translated by the internal

 

 

 

BIU arbitration state machine.

6

ECMRMS

0

Embedded Controller Memory Resource Mapping Scheme. When

 

 

 

ECMRMS is set to 1, the top 96K of Flash memory is mapped to

 

 

 

80188 memory locations 8000h to 1FFFFh. All of Flash memory is

 

 

 

still available at the “normal” locations E0000h to FFFFFh. When

 

 

 

ECMRMS is reset to 0, Flash memory is mapped only to locations

 

 

 

E0000h to FFFFFh.

5

SPDREQ

0

System Power Down Request. SPDREQ will indicate a 1 when the

 

 

 

device driver writes a 1 to the PCMCIA Power Down Request bit in

 

 

 

the PCMCIA Card Configuration and Status Register or when the

 

 

 

device driver writes a 1 to the SIR3 ISAPWRDWN bit. When

 

 

 

SPDREQ is a 1, an interrupt to the 80188 will be generated.

 

 

 

SPDREQ will become cleared when the 80188 core writes a 1

 

 

 

to SPDREQ.
