KX-P7105 / KX-P7110

4.5.5.9.PCI I/F

The CPU ASIC (IC1) integrates a PCI Bus interface. The PCI I/F is the basic macro in CPU ASIC (IC1) for controlling the Mac&Phy (IC6) that is a single-chip 10/100 Mb/s, via the PCI bus.

The control signals of the PCI I/F are as follows.

PCIAD [31:0]:

These signals constitute the external Multiplexed address and data PCI bus.

nPCICBE [3:0]:

During the address phase these signals define the “bus command”. During the data phase these pins indicate

 

which byte lanes contain valid data.

PCIREQ:

This signal indicates that the IC6 requests the ownership of the bus to the CPU ASIC (IC1).

PCIGNT:

This signal indicates that the CPU ASIC (IC 1) grants ownership of the bus to the IC6.

PCIFRM:

This signal indicates the beginning and duration of a bus transaction.

PCIDSEL:

This signal is the PCI Bus ID select signal.

PCIRDY:

This signal indicates to be ready to complete the current data phase transaction.

PCITRDY:

This signal indicates to be ready to complete the current data phase transaction.

nPCISTP:

This signal indicates to request to stop the current transaction.

nPCIPERR:

This signal indicates a parity error.

PCIPAR:

This signal indicates even parity across PCIAD[31-0] and nPCICBE[3-0].

nPCISERR:

This signal is asserted low during address parity errors and system errors.

nPCIINT:

This signal is asserted low when an interrupt condition occurs.

PCIRST:

This signal is the PCI Bus Reset signal.

PCICKOUT:

This signal is the PCI Bus clock which provides timing for all bus phases.
