The PCI Bridge
A dedicated PCI bridge, the Tundra PowerSpan, controls the interface between the card and the host
The PowerSpan implements all the registers needed by the PCI 2.2 standard, providing the
It also implements windows and different mechanisms to interface between the PCI host and the card. Exchanges can use the following elements from the PowerSpan:
•Runtime registers (mailboxes, doorbells, semaphores)
•Four memory windows from the PCI memory space to the Local memory space
•Eight memory windows from the Local space to the PCI memory or I/O space
•Four independent bidirectional DMA engines
•An I²O messaging unit
This chip implements FIFO buffers for all the exchanges through the different windows between the two buses, so that the local bus clock is independent from the PCI bus clock.
All the PowerSpan internal registers are grouped in a 4 KB memory space that can be accessed by the PCI host and the local processor. On the PCI side, the PCI base address of this register space is defined by PCI configuration register PCIBAR1 (offset 0x14). On the local side, the local base address has been conventionally fixed to 0xF0020000.
