INTA#

PCI Interrupts. The SC1200/SC1201 processor pro-

---

 

 

 

vides inputs for the optional “level-sensitive” PCI inter-

 

INTB#

C26

 

---

 

rupts (also known in industry terms as PIRQx#). These

 

 

 

 

INTC#

C9

 

interrupts can be mapped to IRQs of the internal 8259A

GPIO19+IOCHRDY

 

 

 

interrupt controllers using PCI Interrupt Steering Regis-

 

INTD#

AA2

 

IDE_DATA7

 

ters 1 and 2 (F0 Index 5Ch and 5Dh).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note: If selected as INTC# or INTD# function(s) but not

 

 

 

 

used, tie INTC# and INTD# high.

 

 

 

 

 

 

PAR

J4

I/O

Parity. Parity generation is required by all PCI agents.

D12

 

 

 

The master drives PAR for address- and write-data

 

 

 

 

phases. The target drives PAR for read-data phases. Par-

 

 

 

 

ity is even across AD[31:0] and C/BE[3:0]#.

 

 

 

 

For address phases, PAR is stable and valid one PCI

 

 

 

 

clock after the address phase. It has the same timing as

 

 

 

 

AD[31:0] but is delayed by one PCI clock.

 

 

 

 

For data phases, PAR is stable and valid one PCI clock

 

 

 

 

after either IRDY# is asserted on a write transaction or

 

 

 

 

after TRDY# is asserted on a read transaction.

 

 

 

 

Once PAR is valid, it remains valid until one PCI clock

 

 

 

 

after the completion of the data phase. (Also see

 

 

 

 

PERR#.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

FRAME#

D8

I/O

Frame Cycle. Frame is driven by the current master to

---

 

 

 

indicate the beginning and duration of an access.

 

 

 

 

FRAME# is asserted to indicate the beginning of a bus

 

 

 

 

transaction. While FRAME# is asserted, data transfers

 

 

 

 

continue. FRAME# is de-asserted when the transaction

 

 

 

 

is in the final data phase.

 

 

 

 

This signal is internally connected to a pull-up resistor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

IRDY#

F2

I/O

Initiator Ready. IRDY# is asserted to indicate that the

D14

 

 

 

bus master is able to complete the current data phase of

 

 

 

 

the transaction. IRDY# is used in conjunction with

 

 

 

 

TRDY#. A data phase is completed on any PCI clock in

 

 

 

 

which both IRDY# and TRDY# are sampled as asserted.

 

 

 

 

During a write, IRDY# indicates that valid data is present

 

 

 

 

on AD[31:0]. During a read, it indicates that the master is

 

 

 

 

prepared to accept data. Wait cycles are inserted until

 

 

 

 

both IRDY# and TRDY# are asserted together.

 

 

 

 

This signal is internally connected to a pull-up resistor.

 

 

 

 

 

 

TRDY#

F1

I/O

Target Ready. TRDY# is asserted to indicate that the tar-

D13

 

 

 

get agent is able to complete the current data phase of

 

 

 

 

the transaction. TRDY# is used in conjunction with

 

 

 

 

IRDY#. A data phase is complete on any PCI clock in

 

 

 

 

which both TRDY# and IRDY# are sampled as asserted.

 

 

 

 

During a read, TRDY# indicates that valid data is present

 

 

 

 

on AD[31:0]. During a write, it indicates that the target is

 

 

 

 

prepared to accept data. Wait cycles are inserted until

 

 

 

 

both IRDY# and TRDY# are asserted together.

 

 

 

 

This signal is internally connected to a pull-up resistor.
