Double Data Rate refers to a data bus transferring data on both the rising and falling edges of the clock signal. Direct Memory Access (DMA) enables some peripheral devices to bypass the system processor and communicate directly with the system memory.
  • Page 202 The Media Access Control (MAC) protocol enables several terminals or network nodes to communicate in a LAN, or other multipoint networks. PCIe PCI Express (PCIe) is a communications bus that uses dual data lines for full-duplex (two-way) serial (point-to-point) communications between the SBC components and/or expansion cards and the SBC chipsets.

The DIO has both 4-bit digital inputs and 4-bit digital outputs. The digital inputs and digital outputs are generally control si gnals that control the on/o circuit of external devices or TTL devices.

  • Page 208 The Watchdog Timer is provided to ensure that standalone systems can always recover from catastrophic conditions that cause the CPU to crash. This condition may have occurred by external EMI or a software bug. When the CPU stops working correctly, Watchdog Timer either performs a hardware reset (cold boot) or a Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI) to bring the system back to a known state.
  • Page 209 NOTE: When exiting a program it is necessary to disable the Watchdog Timer, otherwise the system resets.
