Name and Function

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cycle Frame. The cycle frame signal is driven by the current master

FRAME#

S/T/S

to indicate the beginning and duration of a transaction. FRAME# is

asserted to indicate the start of a transaction and de-asserted during

 

 

 

 

the final data phase.

 

 

 

 

 

Initiator Ready. The initiator ready signal indicates the bus master’s

 

 

ability to complete the current data phase and is used in conjunction

IRDY#

S/T/S

with the target ready (TRDY#) signal. A data phase is completed on

 

 

any clock cycle where both IRDY# and TRDY# are sampled asserted

 

 

(low) simultaneously.

 

 

 

 

 

Target Ready. The target ready signal indicates the selected device’s

 

 

ability to complete the current data phase and is used in conjunction

TRDY#

S/T/S

with the initiator ready (IRDY#) signal. A data phase is completed on

 

 

any clock cycle where both IRDY# and TRDY# are sampled asserted

 

 

(low) simultaneously.

 

 

 

 

 

Stop. The stop signal is driven by the target to indicate to the initiator

 

 

that it wishes to stop the current transaction. As a bus slave, STOP# is

STOP#

S/T/S

driven by the 82559ER to inform the bus master to stop the current

 

 

transaction. As a bus master, STOP# is received by the 82559ER to

 

 

stop the current transaction.

 

 

 

 

 

Initialization Device Select. The initialization device select signal is

IDSEL

IN

used by the 82559ER as a chip select during PCI configuration read

and write transactions. This signal is provided by the host in PCI

 

 

 

 

systems.

 

 

 

 

 

Device Select. The device select signal is asserted by the target once

 

 

it has detected its address. As a bus master, the DEVSEL# is an input

DEVSEL#

S/T/S

signal to the 82559ER indicating whether any device on the bus has

been selected. As a bus slave, the 82559ER asserts DEVSEL# to

 

 

 

 

indicate that it has decoded its address as the target of the current

 

 

transaction.

 

 

 

 

 

Request. The request signal indicates to the bus arbiter that the

REQ#

T/S

82559ER desires use of the bus. This is a point-to-point signal and

 

 

every bus master has its own REQ#.

 

 

 

 

 

Grant. The grant signal is asserted by the bus arbiter and indicates to

GNT#

IN

the 82559ER that access to the bus has been granted. This is a point-

 

 

to-point signal and every master has its own GNT#.

 

 

 

INTA#

O/D

Interrupt A. The interrupt A signal is used to request an interrupt by

the 82559ER. This is an active low, level triggered interrupt signal.

 

 

 

 

 

SERR#

O/D

System Error. The system error signal is used to report address

parity errors. When an error is detected, SERR# is driven low for a

 

 

single PCI clock.

 

 

 

 

 

Parity Error. The parity error signal is used to report data parity errors

 

 

during all PCI transactions except a Special Cycle. The parity error pin

 

 

is asserted two clock cycles after the error was detected by the device

PERR#

S/T/S

receiving data. The minimum duration of PERR# is one clock for each

 

 

data phase where an error is detected. A device cannot report a parity

 

 

error until it has claimed the access by asserting DEVSEL# and

 

 

completed a data phase.
