16.3 NMSI Configuration

The CMX supports an NMSI mode for each of the FCCs, SCCs, and SMCs. Each serial device is

connected independently either to the NMSI or to the TSA using the clock route registers. The user should

note, however, that NMSI pins are multiplexed with other functions at the parallel I/O lines. Therefore, if

a combination of TDM and NMSI channels are used, consult the PowerQUICC II’s pinout to determine

which FCC, SCC, and SMC to connect and where to connect them.

The clocks provided to the FCCs, SCCs, and SMCs are derived from a bank of 8 internal BRGs and 20

external CLK pins; see Figure 16-3. There are two main advantages to the bank-of-clocks approach. First,

a serial device is not forced to choose a serial device clock from a predefined pin or BRG; this allows a

flexible pinout-mapping strategy. Second, a group of serial receivers and transmitters that needs the same

clock rate can share the same pin. This configuration leaves additional pins for other functions and

minimizes potential skew between multiple clock sources.
