TDM Interface: The Management Data Interface (MDI)

THE MANAGEMENT DATA INTERFACE (MDI)

The MDI or Management Data Interface is a 3-wire protocol which allows access to the mod- ule resources, registers and interrupts using the minimum resources necessary. This inter- face consists of Data (MDIO), Clock (MDCLK) and Interrupt (MDINT) lines.

The MDI uses control pins PC0-PC2, which are not likely to conflict with any MPC860P dedi- cated functions.

The protocol used to communicate involves sequencing bit patterns to indicate the start, command, address, data and close of a transaction. Fig. 6-2shows how the interface is accessed. This protocol is modeled after the existing standards for serial ROM and other micro-wire type non-volatile memory devices.

Note: The MDI interrupt line (MDINT) connects to the MPC860P at PC(15), which must set up as an active low (high- to-low transition) interrupt. Consult the MPC860 PowerQUICC™ User’s Manual for details on configuring the port C interrupt.

The MDI interface is intended for very low bandwidth communications and/or power up configuration. The opcode specifies whether a read, write, or reset cycle is to take place. The register address and data are written to and read from the PmT1 and PmE1 modules.

The PmT1 and PmE1 MDI provides the ability to identify the module, monitor interrupts, and access the serial configuration. Table 6-7provides the protocol format for communicat- ing with the MDI interface.
