Block Diagram

The descriptions in the following sections make reference to the functional block diagram supplied in Figure 4-1. Notice that for each interface, VMEbus and PCI bus, there are three functionally distinct modules: master module, slave module, and interrupt module.

These three modules are connected to the different functional channels operating in the Universe. These channels are:

VME Slave channel

PCI Bus Slave channel

DMA channel

Interrupt channel

Register channel

Functional Description

The functional description is organized into the following sections:

VMEbus Interface

PCI Bus Interface

Interrupter and Interrupt Handler

DMA Controller

These sections describe the operation of the Universe in terms of the different modules and channels listed above and illustrated in Figure 4-1.
