4.1 PCI Bus Interface Signals

The PCI signal definitions are organized into the following functional groups: Power and Ground Signals, System Signals, Address and Data Signals, Interface Control Signals, Arbitration Signals, and Error Reporting Signals.

4.1.1 System Signals

Table 4.2 describes the System Signals group.

Description

 

 

 

 

 

CLK

80

 

I

Clock provides timing for all transactions on the PCI bus and is an input to

 

 

 

 

every PCI device. All other PCI signals are sampled on the rising edge of

 

 

 

 

CLK, and other timing parameters are defined with respect to this edge.

 

 

 

 

Clock can optionally serve as the SCSI core clock, but this may effect fast

 

 

 

 

SCSI transfer rates.

 

 

 

 

 

RST/

79

 

I

Reset forces the PCI sequencer of each device to a known state. All T/S

 

 

 

 

and S/T/S signals are forced to a high impedance state, and all internal logic

 

 

 

 

is reset. The RST/ input is synchronized internally to the rising edge of CLK.

 

 

 

 

The CLK input must be active while RST/ is active to properly reset the

 

 

 

 

device.
