3.3 CPU Interface
The system controller provides the direct interface for the V
100 MHz or 66 MHz.
3.3.1 Overview
• Connects to the V
4120A CPU bus "SysAD bus" directly.
R
• Supports all V
4120A bus cycles at 66 MHz or 100 MHz.
R
• Supports data rate D only.
• Supports sequential ordering only.
• 4-word (16-byte) x 4-entry write command buffer.
• Little-endian or big-endian byte order.
• Not support 8-word burst R/W on SysAD bus
3.3.2 Data rate control
The V
4120A-to-system controller data rate is programmable by setting the EP field (bits 27:24) of the
R
configuration register in the V
mode.
3.3.3 Burst size control
This block - to - V
4120A burst data size is determined by the OSysCMD[2:0] signal on SysAD bus. It is
R
programmable in the IB bit (bits 5) of the V
register (16)). The µ PD98502 support 4-word burst mode only. Please set "0" to IB bit of V
Register.
3.3.4 Address decoding
The controller latches the address on the SysAD bus. It then decodes the address and SysCmd signals to
determine the transaction type. Ten address ranges can be decoded:
• One range for external boot PROM or flash.
• One range for external SDRAM.
• One range for system controller's internal configuration registers.
Boot PROM/flash is mapped according to its size. System controller's internal registers are fixed at base address
1000_0000H, to allow the V
ranges are programmable.
3.3.5 Endian conversion
The BE bit in the configuration register in the V
endian order, BE = 1 configures big-endian order. The endian mode is controlled by "BIG" signal. V
of the system controller supports both big- and little-endian byte ordering on the SysAd bus by using endian converter.
All of the other interfaces in the system controller operate only in little-endian mode.
When the V
4120A is operated in the big-endian mode (external BIG pin is high), the system controller provides
R
the two endian conversion methods controlled by external ENDCEN pin. If ENDCEN pin is low, the system controller
performs the data swap on the SysAD bus (see Table 3-2. Endian Translation Table in Endian Converter for data
swap mode). If ENDCEN pin is high, the system controller performs the address swap on the SysAD bus (the detail is
described in the Table 3-2. Endian Translation Table in Endian Converter for the address swap mode).
