Host Receive Data Request

 

 

 

PCI

Indicates that the host slave receive data FIFO (HRXS) contains data

 

 

 

 

from the DSP56300 core and can be read by the host processor. In PCI

 

 

 

 

mode, as a target in a read data phase from the HRXS, the HI32

 

 

 

 

deasserts

HTRDY

and inserts up to eight PCI wait cycles, if HRRQ is

 

 

 

 

cleared. In a Universal Bus mode read from the HRXS, the HI32 slave

 

 

 

 

deasserts

HTA

as long as HRRQ is cleared. HRRQ can assert the

 

 

 

 

HIRQ pin if the RREQ bit is set. Regardless of whether the HRRQ host

 

 

 

 

interrupt request is enabled, HRRQ provides valid status so that the

 

 

 

 

host processor can use polling techniques. HRRQ functions in

 

 

 

 

accordance with the value of the slave fetch type (SFT) bit in the HCTR.

 

 

 

 

In Fetch mode, (SFT = 1), the HRRQ is always read as zero. In

 

 

 

 

Pre-Fetch mode (SFT = 0), the DSP-to-host data path is FIFO buffered.

 

 

 

 

HRRQ reflects the status of the HRXS. HRRQ is cleared if the HRXS is

 

 

 

 

empty and is set when data is transferred from the DTXS.

UBM

Host Transmit Data Request

 

 

 

PCI

Indicates that the host transmit data FIFO (HTXR) is not full and can be

 

 

 

 

written by the host processor. HTRQ is set when the HTXR data is

 

 

 

 

transferred to the DRXR. HTRQ is cleared when the HTXR is filled by

 

 

 

 

host processor writes. In PCI mode, as target in a write data phase to

 

 

 

 

the HTXR, the HI32 deasserts HTRDY, and inserts up to eight PCI wait

 

 

 

 

cycles, if HTRQ is cleared. In a Universal Bus mode write to the HTXR,

 

 

 

 

the HI32 slave deasserts HTA as long as HTRQ is cleared. HTRQ can

 

 

 

 

assert the external HIRQ pin if the TREQ bit is set. Regardless of

 

 

 

 

whether the HTRQ host interrupt request is enabled, HTRQ provides

 

 

 

 

valid status so that the host processor can use polling techniques.

TRDY

1

UBM

Transmitter Ready

 

 

 

PCI

Indicates that both HTXR and DRXR are empty. When TRDY is set to

 

 

 

 

one, both HTXR and DRXR are empty. TRDY is cleared when the host

 

 

 

 

processor writes to HTXR.

 

 

 

 

The data the host processor writes to the HTXR is immediately

 

 

 

 

transferred to the DSP side of the HI32. This has many applications.

 

 

 

 

For example, if the host processor issues a host command that causes

 

 

 

 

the DSP56300 core to read the DRXR, the host processor can be

 

 

 

 

guaranteed that the data it transferred to the HI32 is what the

 

 

 

 

DSP56300 core is receiving. To support high-speed data transfers, the

 

 

 

 

HI32 host-to-DSP data path is a six word deep FIFO (five words deep in

 

 

 

 

the Universal Bus modes, three word deep in 32-bit mode, DCTR[HM] =

 

 

 

 

$1 and HCTR[HTF] = $0). In PCI data transfers with DCTR[HM] = $1

 

 

 

 

and HCTR[HTF]$0, if TRDY is set, the HI32 does not insert wait states

 

 

 

 

into the next six data transfers written by the host to the HTXR. In PCI

 

 

 

 

data transfers with DCTR[HM] = $1 and HCTR[HTF] = $0 (that is, 32-bit

 

 

 

 

mode), if TRDY is set, the HI32 does not insert wait states in the next

 

 

 

 

three data phases written by the host to the HTXR. In Universal bus

 

 

 

 

mode data transfers, if TRDY is set, the HI32 does not insert wait states

 

 

 

 

into the next five data transfers written by the host to the HTXR.
