Page 5: General Description
• One external interrupt input 1.2 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION A functional block diagram of the PCI-ISC8 is presented below in Figure 1-1. The jumper placement and the connector placement is depicted in Figure 1-2. The PCI-ISC8 can operate as a slave that is managed by the host processor on the PCI bus or it can operate in a standalone mode of operation without a host. - Page 6 Bridge IP A Mailbox Registers SCC8530 IP B Serial Port Figure 1.1: Block Diagram IP A IP B Figure 1.2: Jumper and Connector Locations ALPHI TECHNOLOGY CORP.

Page 8: Host (Pci) Side
NVRAM device read by the AMCC PCI interface chip. The decode addresses of these regions are assigned by the host processor. The PCI-ISC8 uses 1 of the 5 AMCC mapped base address registers. The AMCC is normally programmed... -

For more information about these registers refer to the AMCC PCI controller manual. C31 SIDE 3.1 INTERNAL ORGANIZATION The PCI-ISC8 card is divided into different sections. Each section and its relationship to other sections will be discussed. The PCI-ISC8 sections are: • PCI interface •... - Page 10 HOST and DSP of that half of the PCI-ISC8 module. Interrupts can be enabled based on a specific mailbox event. There are 4 incoming mailboxes and 4 outgoing mailboxes. Each mailbox is 32 bits wide.

3.3.2 SERIAL PORT (Read / Write) The DSP processor on the PCI-ISC8 has access to an SCC85C30 serial communication controller. The 8530 provides an RS232C asynchronous serial communication port. Port B of the 8530 is not connected. -
Page 12: Reset Signals
PCI-ISC8 REFERENCE MANUAL 3.4 RESET SIGNALS The PCI-ISC8 can be reset from two different sources: • At power on or when the PCI RESET is asserted, the watchdog timer will hold the C31 RESET line low for 200 ms. • The AMCC has a bit called SYSRST which the HOST can toggle to reset the DSP. -

It is possible to operate the card is a stand-alone mode without a PCI HOST. Install jumpers on W6 and W5. ALPHI TECHNOLOGY can supply an P1 adaptor to allow operation outside of a CompactPCI chassis or backplane. When the board is operated in stand alone mode, the board can by operated under an emulator and by downloading and executing programs via the serial port under control of the bootloader.
