Safety Summary
The following general safety precautions must be observed during all phases of operation, service, and repair of this
equipment. Failure to comply with these precautions or with specific warnings elsewhere in this manual could result
in personal injury or damage to the equipment.
The safety precautions listed below represent warnings of certain dangers of which Motorola is aware. You, as the
user of the product, should follow these warnings and all other safety precautions necessary for the safe operation of
the equipment in your operating environment.

Ground the Instrument.
To minimize shock hazard, the equipment chassis and enclosure must be connected to an electrical ground. If the
equipment is supplied with a three-conductor AC power cable, the power cable must be plugged into an approved
three-contact electrical outlet, with the grounding wire (green/yellow) reliably connected to an electrical ground
(safety ground) at the power outlet. The power jack and mating plug of the power cable meet International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) safety standards and local electrical regulatory codes.

Do Not Operate in an Explosive Atmosphere.
Do not operate the equipment in any explosive atmosphere such as in the presence of flammable gases or fumes.
Operation of any electrical equipment in such an environment could result in an explosion and cause injury or damage.

Keep Away From Live Circuits Inside the Equipment.
Operating personnel must not remove equipment covers. Only Factory Authorized Service Personnel or other
qualified service personnel may remove equipment covers for internal subassembly or component replacement or any
internal adjustment. Service personnel should not replace components with power cable connected. Under certain
conditions, dangerous voltages may exist even with the power cable removed. To avoid injuries, such personnel
should always disconnect power and discharge circuits before touching components.

Use Caution When Exposing or Handling a CRT.
Breakage of a Cathode-Ray Tube (CRT) causes a high-velocity scattering of glass fragments (implosion). To prevent
CRT implosion, do not handle the CRT and avoid rough handling or jarring of the equipment. Handling of a CRT
should be done only by qualified service personnel using approved safety mask and gloves.

Do Not Substitute Parts or Modify Equipment.
Do not install substitute parts or perform any unauthorized modification of the equipment. Contact your local
Motorola representative for service and repair to ensure that all safety features are maintained.

Observe Warnings in Manual.
Warnings, such as the example below, precede potentially dangerous procedures throughout this manual. Instructions
contained in the warnings must be followed. You should also employ all other safety precautions which you deem
necessary for the operation of the equipment in your operating environment.

Warning

To prevent serious injury or death from dangerous voltages, use extreme
caution when handling, testing, and adjusting this equipment and its
components.

Product Data and Memory Maps

Memory maps
The following sections describe the memory maps for the MVME5100.

Processor Memory Map
The processor memory map configuration is under the control of the PCI
Host Bridge (PHB) and System Memory Controller (SMC) portions of the
Hawk ASIC. The Hawk adjusts system mapping to suit a given
application via programmable map decoder registers. At system power-up
or reset, a default processor memory map takes over.
Following a reset, the memory map presented to the processor is identical
to the CHRP memory map described in this document.
The MVME5100 is fully capable of supporting both the PREP and the
CHRP processor memory maps with ROM/FLASH size limited to 16MB
and RAM size limited to 2GB.
Default Processor Memory Map
The default processor memory map that is valid at power-up or reset
remains in effect until reprogrammed for specific applications. Table 1-2
defines the entire default map ($00000000 to $FFFFFFFF).

Note

The first 1MB of ROM/FLASH Bank A (soldered Flash up
to 8MB) appears in this range after a reset if the rom_b_rv
control bit in the SMC’s ROM B Base/Size register is
cleared. If the rom_b_rv control bit is set, this address range
maps to ROM/FLASH Bank B (socketed 1MB Flash).

For an example of the CHRP memory map refer to the following table. For
detailed processor memory maps, including suggested CHRP- and PREPcompatible memory maps, refer to the Hawk related portion of this
manual.
Processor Memory Map
The following table describes a suggested CHRP Memory Map from the
point of view of the processor. This memory map is an alternative to the
PREP memory map. Note: in all recommended CHRP maps, the beginning
of PCI Memory Space is determined by the end of DRAM rounded up to
the nearest 256MB-boundry as required by CHRP. For example, if
memory was 1G on the baseboard and 192MB on a mezzanine, the
beginning of PCI memory would be rounded up to address 0x50000000
(1G + 256M).

Product Data and Memory Maps

PCI Local Bus Memory Map
The PCI memory map is controlled by the MPU/PCI bus bridge controller
portion of the Hawk ASIC and by the Universe PCI/VME bus bridge
ASIC. The Hawk and Universe devices adjust system mapping to suit a
given application via programmable map decoder registers.
No default PCI memory map exists. Resetting the system turns the PCI
map decoders off, and they must be reprogrammed in software for the
intended application.
For detailed PCI memory maps, including suggested CHRP- and PREPcompatible memory maps, refer to the Hawk portion of this manual
(Chapters 2 and 3).

VMEbus Memory Map
The map of the VMEbus is programmable. Like other parts of the
MVME510x memory map, the mapping of local resources as viewed by
VMEbus masters varies among applications.
The Universe PCI/VME bus bridge ASIC includes a user-programmable
map decoder for the VMEbus-to-local-bus interface. The address
translation capabilities of the Universe enable the processor to access any
range of addresses on the VMEbus.
Recommendations for VMEbus mapping, including suggested CHRP- and
PREP-compatible memory maps, can be found in the Hawk portion of this
manual (Chapters 2 and 3).

System Bus
The following sections describe the processor system bus for the
MVME5100. Only the PPC60x bus interface is supported.

1-8

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

System Bus

Processors
The MVME5100 has the BGA foot print that supports the MPC750,
MPC755 and MPC7410 processors. The maximum external processor bus
speed is 100 MHz. Parity checking is supported for the system address and
data busses.

Processor Type Identification
The processor version can be determined by reading the Processor Version
Register (PVR). The PVR version number value for the MPC750 and
MPC755 processors is 0x0008. The processor revision level starts at
0x0100 and is updated for each silicon revision. For example, revision 1 of
the MPC750 is 0x00080100. Revision 2 is 0x00080200, and so on.
Incremental revisions, such as 2.1, are identified as 0x00080201 and so on.
For the MPC7410, the PVR version number value is 0x000C, and the
revision levels use the same nomenclature as the MPC750, e.g., 0x0100
and so on.

Processor PLL Configuration
The processor internal clock frequency (core frequency) is a multiple of
the system bus frequency. The processor has four configuration pins,
PLL_CFG[0:3], for hardware strapping of the processor core frequency
between 2x and 8x the system bus frequency, in 0.5x steps.
The PLL configuration is dynamic at power-up and varies depending upon
the existence of a memory mezzanine attached to the host board.

L2 Cache
The MVME5100 SBC uses a back-door L2 cache structure via the Max
processor chip. Max’s L2 cache is implemented with an onchip 2-way, setassociative tag memory and external direct mapped synchronous SRAMs
for data storage. The external SRAMs are accessed through a dedicated 72bit wide (64-bits of data and 8 bits of address) L2 cache port on the
processor. The L2 cache normally operates in copyback modes and
supports system cache coherency through snooping. Parity generation and

Product Data and Memory Maps

checking may be disabled by programming Max accordingly. Refer to the
MPC750, MPC755 or the MPC7410 RISC Microprocessor Users Manual
and Chapter 3 of this manual for more information on programming cache.

L2 Cache SRAM Size
The L2 cache port will support SRAM configurations of 1MB or 2MB.
The L2 cache size is defined by reading the Vital Product Data (VPD)
SROM and programming the L2SIZ bits in the processor’s Cache Control
Register (L2CR).

Cache Speed
The MPC7410 and the MPC750 cache port provides the clock for the
synchronous SRAMs. This clock is generated by dividing the processor
core frequency. Available core-to-cache dividers range from 1 to 4, in .5
steps for the MPC7400. For the MPC750, the core-to-cache dividers range
from 1 to 3 in .5 steps.
The core-to-cache ratio is selected by reading the VPD SROM and
programming the L2CLK bits of the processor’s Cache Control Register.
Refer to the MPC7400 RISC Microprocessor Users Manual or the
MPC750 RISC Microprocessor Users Manual as listed in Appendix A,
Related Documentation for more information.

FLASH Memory
The MVME5100 contains two banks of FLASH memory. Bank B consists
of two 32-pin devices that can be populated with 1MB of FLASH memory.
Only 8-bit writes are supported for this bank. Bank A has 4 16-bit Smart
Voltage FLASH SMT devices. With the 16 Mbit FLASH devices, the
FLASH size is 8MB. With 32 Mbit FLASH devices, the FLASH size is
16MB. Only 32-bit writes are supported for this bank of FLASH. There is
a jumper to tell the Hawk ASIC where to fetch the reset vector. When the
jumper is installed, the Hawk ASIC maps 0xfff00100 to these sockets
(Bank B). Flash memory characteristics are fully compatible with those
specified further on in this programmer’s guide for Flash Blocks
A and B.

ECC Memory
The on-board and optional memory mezzanines allow a variety of memory
size options; i.e., memory size can be 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, 256MB, or
512MB for a total of up to 1GB of planar and mezzanine ECC memory.
The SDRAM memory is controlled by the Hawk ASIC, which provides
single-bit error correction and double-digit error detection. ECC is
calculated over 72-bits. Refer to the Hawk portion of this manual
(Chapters 2 and 3) for additional programming information.
Memory block size is dependent upon the SDRAM devices installed.
Installing five 64 Mbit (16-bit data) devices provide 32MB of memory.
With 64 Mbit (8-bit data) devices, each block consists of 9 devices that
total 64MB per block. With 128 Mbit (8-bit data) devices, a block can be
populated for 128MB. With 256 Mbit (8-bit data) devices, a block can be
populated for 256MB.
When populated, the planar memory blocks appear as Block A and
Block B to the Hawk. The optional mezzanine memory blocks appear as
Block C and Block E to the Hawk.
The optional memory mezzanine can configure the planar local bus
frequency upon power-up. This will reduce the planar local bus frequency
of 100 MHz to 83.33 MHz when mezzanines are used. Either one or two
mezzanines can be installed. Each mezzanine will add one bank of
SDRAM memory of either 32MB, 64MB, 128MB, or 256MB. A total of
512MB of mezzanine memory can be added.
Refer to the MVME5100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use
manual for installation and configuration instructions for the RAM500
memory mezzanine board, and refer to Chapters 2 and 3 of this manual for
additonal programming information on programming the memory
mezzanines using the Hawk ASIC.

P2 I/O Modes
The MVME5100 has two P2 I/O modes (SBC and PMC) that are user
configurable with 4 jumpers on the planar (refer to the jumper settings in
the MVME5100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use manual).
The jumpers route the on-board Ethernet Port 2 to Row C of the P2

connector. The SBC mode (also know as 761 mode or IPMC mode) is
backwards compatible with the MVME761 transition card and P2 adapter
card (excluding PMC IO routing) used on MVME2600/2700 models.
PMC mode is backwards compatible with the MVME2300 and
MVME2400 models. The SBC mode is accomplished by configuring
planar jumpers and attaching an IPMC761 PMC card in PMC slot 1 of the
MVME5100. Refer to the IPMC712/761 I/O Module Installation and Use
manual for additional installation and programming information. PMC
mode is accomplished by configuring planar jumpers. The P2 IO mode
jumper configuration for the SBC and PMC modes are described in the
MVME5100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use manual.

Serial Presence Detect (SPD) Definitions
The MVME5100 SPD uses the SPD JEDEC standard definition. On-board
SPD for SDRAM Bank A or both A and B of the Hawk is accessed at
Address $A8 . Only Bank A or Banks A and B may be populated. If both
Banks A and B are populated, they will be of the same speed and memory
size. Memory Mezzanine 1 SPD for SDRAM Bank C of the Hawk is
accessed at Address $AA. Memory Mezzanine 2 SPD for SDRAM Bank
E of the Hawk is accessed at address $AC.
The SPD format conforms to the JEDEC industry standard JESD21-C.

Hawk ASIC
The Hawk ASIC provides the bridge function between the MPC60x bus
and the PCI local bus. It provides 32-bit addressing and 64-bit data. The
64-bit addressing capability (dual address cycle) is not supported. The
Hawk supports various PowerPC processor external bus frequencies, up to
100MHz.
There are four programmable map decoders for each direction to provide
flexible address mappings between the MPC and the PCI local bus. Refer
to Chapters 2 and 3 in this manual for more programming information on
the Hawk.

Hawk ASIC

The Hawk ASIC also provides an Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller
(MPIC) to handle various interrupt sources. The interrupt sources are: Four
MPIC Timer Interrupts, the interrupts from all PCI devices, and the two
software interrupts.

Hawk I2C interface and configuration information
The Hawk ASIC has an I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) two-wire serial
interface bus: Serial Clock Line (SCL) and Serial Data Line (SDA)
composed of two 256 x 8 Serial EEPROM’s.
This interface has master-only capability and is used to communicate the
configuration information to a slave I2C serial EEPROM. A separate
EEPROM is used to maintain the configuration information related to the
board (Vital Product Data; VPD, User Configuration Data; UCD) and a
separate EEPROM for on-board Memory Subsystem Data (MSD).
If an optional memory mezzanine is used, that mezzanine shall contain a
separate EEPROM with its own memory subsystem data. Each slave
device connected to the I2C bus is software addressable by a unique
address.
There can be seven slave devices connected to the I2C bus on the
MVME5100. The VPD address is $A0. The UPD address is $A2.
The on-board MSD address (Memory Bank A and B) is $A8. The optional
Memory Mezzanine 1 MSD addresses is $AA (Memory Bank C) and $AC
(Memory Bank E) for mezzanine 2.
The IPMC761 VPD address is $A4. A digital thermometer (DS1621) I2C
address is $96. Some configuration options in the Hawk ASIC must be
configured at power-up reset time before software performs any accesses

Functional Description
Architectural Overview
A functional block diagram of the Hawk’s PCI Host Bridge (PHB) is
shown in Figure 2-1. The PHB control logic is subdivided into the
following functions: PCI Slave, PCI Master, PPC Slave and PPC Master.
The PHB data path logic is subdivided into the following functions: PCI
FIFO, PPC FIFO, PCI Input, PPC Input, PCI Output, and PPC Output.
Address decoding is handled in the PCI Decode and PPC Decode blocks.
The control register logic is contained in the PCI Registers and PPC
Registers blocks. The clock phasing and reset control logic is contained
within the PPC/PCI Clock block.
The FIFO structure implemented within PHB was selected to allow
independent data transfer operations to occur between PCI bound
transactions and PPC bound transactions. The PCI FIFO is used to support
PPC bound transactions, while the PPC FIFO is used to support PCI bound
transactions. Each FIFO supports a command path and a data path. The
data path portion of each FIFO incorporates a multiplexer to allow
selection between write data and read data, as well as logic to handle the
PPC/PCI endian function.
All PPC originated PCI bound transactions utilize the PPC Slave and PCI
Master functions for maintaining bus tracking and control. During both
write and read transactions, the PPC Slave places command information
into the PPC FIFO. The PCI Master draws this command information from
the PPC FIFO when it is ready to process the transaction. During write
transactions, write data is captured from the PPC60x bus within the PPC
Input block. This data is fed into the PPC FIFO. The PCI Output block
removes the data from the FIFO and presents it to the PCI bus. During read
transactions, read data is captured from the PCI bus within the PCI Input
block. From there, the data is fed into the PPC FIFO. The PPC Output
block removes the data from the FIFO and presents it to the PPC60x bus.

Functional Description

All PCI originated PPC bound transactions utilize the PCI Slave and PPC
Master functions for maintaining bus tracking and control. During both
write and read transactions, the PCI Slave places command information
into the PCI FIFO. The PPC Master draws this command information from
the PCI FIFO when it is ready to process the transaction. During write
transactions, write data is captured from the PCI bus within the PCI Input
block. This data is fed into the PCI FIFO. The PPC Output block removes
the data from the FIFO and presents it to the PPC60x bus. During read
transactions, read data is captured from the PPC60x bus within the PPC
Input block. From there, the data is fed into the PCI FIFO. The PCI Output
block removes the data from the FIFO and presents it to the PCI bus.
The MPIC is hosted by the PHB. A custom MPIC Interface is provided to
allow write data and control to be passed to the MPIC and to allow read
data to be passed back to the PHB. The MPIC Interface is controlled
exclusively by the PCI Slave.
The data path function imposes some restrictions on access to the MPIC,
the PCI Registers, and the PPC Registers. The MPIC and the PCI Registers
are only accessible to PCI originated transactions. The PPC Registers are
only accessible to PPC originated transactions.
The PHB has several small blocks that support various PPC functions.
Arbitration is provide by the PPC Arbiter block. Cache line locking (via
PCI Lock) is handled by the PPC Lock block. Finally, a timer function is
implemented in the PPC Timer block.
The PHB also provides miscellaneous support for various PCI functions.
Arbitration on the PCI bus is handled by the PCI Arbiter block. Parity
checking and generation is handled within the PCI Parity block.

PPC Bus Interface
The PPC Bus Interface connects directly to one MPC750 or MPC7400
microprocessor and one peripheral PPC60x master device. It uses a subset
of the capabilities of the PPC bus protocol.

PPC Address Mapping
The PHB will map either PCI memory space or PCI I/O space into PPC
address space using four programmable map decoders. These decoders
provide windows of access to the PCI bus from the PPC bus. The most
significant 16 bits of the PPC address are compared with the address range
of each map decoder, and if the address falls within the specified range, the
access is passed on to the PCI. An example of this is shown in Figure 2-2.

Figure 2-2. PPC to PCI Address Decoding
There are no limits imposed by the PHB on how large of an address space
a map decoder can represent. There is a lower limit of a minimum of 64KB
due to the resolution of the address compare logic.
For each map, there is an associated set of attributes. These attributes are
used to enable read accesses, enable write accesses, enable write posting,
and define the PCI transfer characteristics.

2-6

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

Each map decoder also includes a programmable 16-bit address offset. The
offset is added to the 16 most significant bits of the PPC address, and the
result is used as the PCI address. This offset allows PCI devices to reside
at any PCI address, independent of the PPC address map. An example of
this is shown in Figure 2-3.

Figure 2-3. PPC to PCI Address Translation
Care should be taken to ensure that all programmable decoders decode
unique address ranges since overlapping address ranges will lead to
undefined operation.
PPC Slave
The PPC slave provides the interface between the PPC bus and the PPC
FIFO. The PPC slave is responsible for tracking and maintaining
coherency in the PPC60x processor bus protocol. The actions taken by the
PPC Slave to service a transaction are dependent upon whether the
transaction is posted or compelled. During compelled transactions, such as
a read or a non-posted single beat write, the PPC Slave will hold off
asserting AACK_ and TA_ until after the transaction has completed on the
PCI bus. This has the effect of removing all levels of pipelining during
compelled PHB accesses. The interdependency between the assertion of

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-7

2

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

AACK_ and TA_ allows the PPC Slave to assert a retry to the processor in
the event that the transaction is unable to complete on the PCI side. It
should be noted that any transaction that crosses a PCI word boundary
could be disrupted after only having a portion of the data transferred.

2

The PPC Slave cannot perform compelled burst write transactions. The
PPC bus protocol mandates that the qualified retry window must occur no
later than the assertion of the first TA_ of a burst transaction. If the PHB
was to attempt a compelled linkage for all beats within a burst write, there
is a possibility that the transaction could be interrupted. The interruption
would occur at a time past the latest qualified retry window and the PPC
Slave would be unable to retry the transaction. Therefore, all burst write
transactions are posted regardless of the write posting attribute within the
associated map decoder register.
If the PPC Slave is servicing a posted write transaction and the PPC FIFO
can accept the transaction, the assertion of AACK_ and TA_ occurs as soon
as the PPC Slave decode logic settles out and the PPC bus protocol allows
for the assertion. If the PPC FIFO is full, the PPC Slave holds the processor
with wait states (AACK_ will not be asserted) until there is room within the
PPC FIFO to store the pending transaction.
The PPC Slave divides PPC command types into three categories: address
only, write, and read. If a command type is an address only and the address
presented at the time of the command is a valid PHB address, the PPC
slave will respond immediately by asserting AACK_. The PHB will not
respond to address only cycles where the address presented is not a PHB
address. The response of the PPC Slave to command types is listed in
Table 2-1.

A 64-bit by 8 entry FIFO (2 cache lines total) is used to hold data between

is maintained. The same FIFO is used for both read and write transactions.
A 46-bit by 4 entry FIFO is used to hold command information being
passed between the PPC Slave and the PCI Master. If write posting has
been enabled, then the maximum number of transactions that may be
posted is limited by the abilities of either the data FIFO or the command
FIFO.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

For example, two burst transactions make the data FIFO the limiting factor
for write posting. Four single beat transactions make the command FIFO
the limiting factor. If either limit is exceeded, then any pending PPC
transactions is delayed (AACK_ and TA_ are not asserted) until the PCI
Master has completed a portion of the previously posted transactions and
created some room within the command and/or data FIFOs.

2

The PHB does not support byte merging or byte collapsing. Each and
every single beat transaction presented to the PPC Slave is presented to the
PCI bus as a unique single beat transfer.
PPC Master
The PPC Master can transfer data either in 1-to-8 byte single beat
transactions or 32 byte, four beat burst transactions. This limitation is
strictly imposed by the PPC60x bus protocol. The PPC Master attempts to
move data using burst transfers whenever possible. If a transaction starts
on a non-cache line address, the PPC Master performs as many single beat
transactions as needed until the next highest cache line boundary is
reached. If a write transaction ends on a non-cache line boundary, then the
PPC Master finishes the transaction with as many single beat transactions
as needed to complete the transaction.
Table 2-2 shows the relationship between the starting addresses and the
PPC60x bus transaction types when write posting and read ahead are
enabled.

While the PCI Slave is filling the PCI FIFO with write data, the PPC
Master can be moving previously posted write data onto the PPC60x bus.
In general, the PPC60x bus is running at a higher clock rate than the PCI
bus, which means the PCI bus can transfer data at a continuous
uninterrupted burst while the PPC60x bus transfers data in distributed
multiple bursts. The PHB write posting mechanism has been tuned to
create the most efficient possible data transfer between the two busses
during typical operation. It is conceivable that some non-typical conditions
could exist that would upset the default write post tuning of the PHB. For
example, if a PPC60x master is excessively using PPC60x bus bandwidth,
then the additional latency associated with obtaining ownership of the
PPC60x bus might cause the PCI Slave to stall if the PCI FIFO gets full. If
the PCI Slave is continuously stalling during write posted transactions,
then further tuning might be needed. This can be accomplished by
changing the WXFT (Write Any Fifo Threshold) field within the PSATTx
registers to recharacterize PHB write posting mechanism. The FIFO

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

threshold should be lowered to anticipate any additional latencies incurred
by the PPC Master on the PPC60x bus. Table 2-3 summarizes the PHB
available write posting options.

The PPC Master has an optional read ahead mode controlled by the RAEN
bit in the PSATTx registers that allows the PPC Master to prefetch data in
bursts and store it in the PCI FIFO. The contents of the PCI FIFO is then
used to satisfy the data requirements for the remainder of the PCI read
transaction. The PHB read ahead mechanism is tuned for maximum
efficiency during typical operation conditions. If excessive latencies are
encountered on the PPC60x bus, it may be necessary to tune the read ahead
mechanism to compensate for this. Additional tuning of the read-ahead
function is controlled by the RXFT/RMFT (Read Any FIFO
Threshold/Read Multiple FIFO Threshold) fields in the PSATTx registers.
These fields can be used to characterize when the PPC Master continues
reading ahead with respect to the PCI FIFO threshold. The FIFO threshold
should be raised to anticipate any additional latencies incurred by the PPC
Master on the PPC60x bus. Table 2-4 summarizes the PHB available read
ahead options.

Upon completion of a prefetched read transaction, any residual read data
left within the PCI FIFO will be invalidated (discarded). The PHB does not
have a mechanism for snooping the PPC60x bus for transactions associated
with the prefetched read data within the PCI FIFO. Therefore, caution
should be exercised when using the prefetch option within coherent
memory space.
The PPC Master never performs prefetch reads beyond the address range
mapped within the PCI Slave map decoders. As an example, assume PHB
has been programmed to respond to PCI address range $10000000 through
$1001FFFF with an offset of $2000. The PPC Master performs its last read
on the PPC60x bus at cache line address $3001FFFC or word address
$3001FFF8.

The PPC60x bus transfer types generated by the PPC Master depend on the
PCI command code and the INV/GBL bits in the PSATTx registers. The
GBL bit determines whether or not the GBL_ signal is asserted for all
portions of a transaction and is fully independent of the PCI command
code and INV bit. The following table shows the relationship between the
PCI command codes and the INV bit.

The PPC Master incorporates an optional operating mode called Bus Hog.
When Bus Hog is enabled, the PPC Master continually requests the PPC
bus for the entire duration of each PCI transfer. When Bus Hog is not
enabled, the PPC Master structures its bus request actions according to the
requirements of the FIFO. The Bug Hog mode was primarily designed to
assist with system level debugging and is not intended for normal modes
of operation. It is a brute force method of guaranteeing that all PCI to
PPC60x transactions will be performed without any intervention by host
CPU transactions. Caution should be exercised when using this mode since
the over-generosity of bus ownership to the PPC Master can be detrimental
to the host CPU’s performance. The Bus Hog mode can be controlled by
the XMBH bit within the GCSR. The default state for XMBH is disabled.

PPC Arbiter

2
The PHB has an internal PPC60x bus arbiter. The use of this arbiter is
optional. If the internal arbiter is disabled, then the PHB must be allowed
to participate in an externally implemented PPC60x arbitration
mechanism. The selection of either internal or external PPC arbitration
mode is made by sampling an RD line at the release of reset. Refer to the
section titled PHB Hardware Configuration in this chapter for more
information.
The PHB has been designed to accommodate up to four PPC60x bus
masters, including itself (HAWK), two processors (CPU0/CPU1), and an
external PPC60x master (EXTL). EXTL can be a L2 cache, a second
bridge chip, etc. When the PPC Arbiter is disabled, PHB generates an
external request and listen for an external grant for itself. It also listens to
the other external grants to determine the PPC60x master identification
field (XID) within the GCSR. When the PPC Arbiter is enabled, the PHB
receives requests and issue grants for itself and for the other three bus
masters. The XID field is determined by the PPC Arbiter.
The PPC60x arbitration signals and their functions are summarized in
Table 2-6.

While RST_ is asserted, XARB0 through XARB4 is held in tri-state. If the
internal arbiter mode is selected, then XARB0 through XARB3 is driven
to an active state no more than ten clock periods after PHB has detected a
rising edge on RST_. If the external arbiter mode has been selected, then
XARB4 is driven to an active state no more than ten clock periods after
PHB has detected a rising edge on RST_.

The PPC Arbiter implements the following prioritization scheme:
❏

HAWK (Highest Priority)

❏

EXTL

❏

CPUx

❏

CPUy (Lowest Priority)

The PPC Arbiter is controlled by the XARB register within the PHB
PPC60x register group.
The PPC Arbiter supports two prioritization schemes. Both schemes affect
the priority of the CPU’s with respect to each other. The CPU fixed option
always places the priority of CPU0 over CPU1. The CPU rotating option
gives priority on a rotational basis between CPU0 and CPU1. In all cases,
the priority of the CPUs remains fixed with respect to the priority of
HAWK and EXTL, with HAWK always having the highest priority of all.
The PPC Arbiter supports four parking modes. Parking is implemented
only on the CPUs and is not implemented on either HAWK or EXTL. The
parking options include parking on CPU0, parking on CPU1, parking on
the last CPU, or parking disabled.
There are various system level debug functions provided by the PPC
Arbiter. The PPC Arbiter has the optional ability to flatten the PPC60x bus
pipeline. Flattening can be imposed uniquely on single beat reads, single
beat writes, burst reads, and burst writes. It is possible to further qualify the
ability to flatten based on whether there is a switch in masters or whether
to flatten unconditionally for each transfer type. This is a debug function
only and is not intended for normal operation.

PPC Parity

2
The PHB generates data parity whenever it is sourcing PPC data. This
happens during PPC Master write cycles and PPC Slave read cycles. Valid
data parity is presented when DBB_ is asserted for PPC Master write
cycles. Valid data parity is presented when TA_ is asserted for PPC Slave
read cycles.
The PHB checks data parity whenever it is sinking PPC data. This happens
during PPC Master read cycles and PPC Slave write cycles. Data parity is
considered valid anytime TA_ has been asserted. If a data parity error is
detected, then the PHB will latch address and attribute information within
the ESTAT, EADDR, and EATTR registers, and an interrupt or machine
check will be generated depending on the programming of the ESTAT
register.
The PHB has a mechanism to purposely induce data parity errors for
testability. The DPE field within the ETEST register can be used to
purposely inject data parity errors on specific data parity lines. Data parity
errors can only be injected during cycles where PHB is sourcing PPC data.
The PHB will generate address parity whenever it is sourcing a PPC
address. This will happen for all PPC Master transactions. Valid address
parity will be presented when ABB_ is being asserted.
The PHB has a mechanism to purposely inject address parity errors for
testability. The APE field within the ETEST register can be used to
purposely inject address parity errors on specific address parity lines.
Address parity errors can only be injected during cycles where PHB is
sourcing a PPC address.
The PHB does not have the ability to check for address parity errors.

PPC Bus Timer
The PPC Timer allows the current bus master to recover from a potential
lock-up condition caused when there is no response to a transfer request.
The time-out length of the bus timer is determined by the XBT field within
the GCSR.
The PPC Timer is designed to handle the case where an address tenure is
not closed out by the assertion of AACK_. The PPC Timer will not handle
the case where a data tenure is not closed out by the appropriate number of
TA_ assertions. The PPC Timer starts timing at the exact moment when the
PPC60x bus pipeline has gone flat. In other words, the current address
tenure is pending closure, all previous data tenures have completed, and
the current pending data tenure awaiting closer is logically associated with
the current address tenure.
The time-out function is aborted if AACK_ is asserted anytime before the
time-out period has passed. If the time-out period reaches expiration, then
the PPC Timer asserts AACK_ to close the faulty address tenure. If the
transaction was an address only cycle, then no further action is taken. If the
faulty transaction was a data transfer cycle, then the PPC Timer asserts the
appropriate number of TA_ signals to close the pending data tenure. Error
information related to the faulty transaction will be latched within the
ESTAT, EADDR, and EATTR registers, and an interrupt or machine
check will be generated depending on the programming of the ESTAT
register.
There are two exceptions that dynamically disable the PPC Timer. If the
transaction is PCI bound, then the burden of closing out a transaction is left
to the PCI bus. Note that a transaction to the PPC60x registers is
considered to be PCI bound since the completion of these types of accesses
depends on the ability of the PCI bus to empty PCI bound write posted
data.
A second exception is the assertion of the XTOCLM_ signal. This is an
open collector (wired OR), bi-directional signal that is used by a bridge to
indicate the burden of timing a transaction has been passed on to another
bus domain. The PHB asserts this signal whenever it has determined that
a transaction is being timed by its own PCI bus. Any other bridge devices
listening to this signal understand that the current pending cycle should not

Functional Description

be subject to a time-out period. During non-PCI bound cycles, the PPC
Timer aborts the timing of the transaction any time it detects XTOCLM_
has been asserted.

PCI Bus Interface
The PCI Interface of the PHB is designed to connect directly to a PCI
Local Bus and supports Master and Target transactions within Memory
Space, I/O Space, and Configuration Space.
PCI Address Mapping
The PHB provides three resources to the PCI:
❏

Configuration registers mapped into PCI Configuration space

❏

PPC bus address space mapped into PCI Memory space

❏

MPIC control registers mapped into either PCI I/O space or PCI
Memory space

Configuration Registers
The PHB Configuration registers are mapped within PCI Configuration
space according to how the system connects Hawk’s DEVSEL_ pin. The
PHB provides a configuration space that is fully compliant with the PCI
Local Bus Specification 2.1 definition for configuration space. There are
two base registers within the standard 64 byte header that are used to
control the mapping of MPIC. One register is dedicated to mapping MPIC
into PCI I/O space, and the other register is dedicated to mapping MPIC
into PCI Memory space. The mapping of PPC address space is handled by
device specific registers located above the 64 byte header. These control
registers support a mapping scheme that is functionally similar to the PCIto-PPC mapping scheme described in the section titled PPC Address
Mapping.

PPC Bus Address Space

2

The PHB maps PPC address space into PCI Memory space using four
programmable map decoders. The most significant 16 bits of the PCI
address is compared with the address range of each map decoder, and if the
address falls within the specified range, the access is passed on to the PPC
bus. An example of this is shown in Figure 2-4.

There are no limits imposed by the PHB on how large of an address space
a map decoder can represent. There is a lower limit of a minimum of 64KB
due to the resolution of the address compare logic.
For each map, there is an independent set of attributes. These attributes are
used to enable read accesses, enable write accesses, enable write posting,
and define the PPC bus transfer characteristics.

Each map decoder also includes a programmable 16-bit address offset. The
offset is added to the 16 most significant bits of the PCI address, and the
result is used as the PPC address. This offset allows devices to reside at any

shown in Figure 2-5.

MPIC Control Registers

2

The MPIC control registers are located within either PCI Memory or PCI
I/O space using traditional PCI defined base registers within the predefined
64-byte header. Refer to the section titled Multi-Processor Interrupt
Controller (MPIC) for more information.
PCI Slave
The PCI Slave provides the control logic needed to interface the PCI bus
to the PCI FIFO. The PCI Slave can accept either 32-bit or 64-bit
transactions; however, it can only accept 32-bit addressing. There is no
limit to the length of the transfer that the PCI Slave can handle. During
posted write cycles, the PCI Slave will continue to accept write data until
the PCI FIFO is full. If the PCI FIFO is full, the PCI Slave will hold off the
master with wait states until there is more room in the FIFO. The PCI Slave
will not initiate a disconnect. If the write transaction is compelled, the PCI
Slave will hold off the master with wait states while each beat of data is
being transferred. The PCI Slave issues TRDY_ only after the data transfer
has successfully completed on the PPC bus. If a read transaction is being
performed within an address space marked for prefetching, the PCI Slave
(in conjunction with the PPC Master) attempts to read ahead far enough on
the PPC bus to allow for an uninterrupted burst transaction on the PCI bus.
Read transactions within address spaces marked for no prefetching receive
a TRDY_ indication on the PCI bus only after one burst read has
successfully completed on the PPC bus. Each read on the PPC bus is only
started after the previous read is acknowledged on the PCI bus and there is
an indication that the PCI Master wishes for more data to be transferred.
The following paragraphs identify some associations between the
operation of the PCI slave and the PCI 2.1 Local Bus Specification
requirements.

The PCI Slave will accept any combination of byte enables during read or

enables forces the PCI Slave to issue a disconnect. During all read cycles,
the PCI Slave returns an entire word of data regardless of the byte enables.
During I/O read cycles, the PCI Slave performs integrity checking of the
byte enables against the address being presented and assert SERR* in the
event there is an error.

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

The PCI Slave only honors the Linear Incrementing addressing mode. The
PCI Slave performs a disconnect with data if any other mode of addressing
is attempted.

2

Device Selection
The PCI slave will always respond valid decoded cycles as a medium
responder.
Target Initiated Termination
The PCI Slave normally strives to complete transactions without issuing
disconnects or retries. There are four exceptions where the PCI Slave
performs a disconnect:
❏

All burst configuration cycles are terminated with a disconnect after
one data beat has been transferred.

❏

All transactions that have a byte enable hole are disconnected.

❏

All transactions attempting to perform non-linear addressing mode
are terminated with a disconnect after one data beat is transferred.

❏

A transaction that crosses from a valid PHB decode space to an
invalid PHB decode space is disconnected. Note that this does not
include crossing contiguous multiple map decoder space, in which
case PHB does not issue a disconnect.

There are two exceptions where the PCI Slave performs a retry (disconnect
with no data transfer):
❏

While within a lock sequence, the PCI Slave retries all non-locking
masters.

❏

At the completion of a lock sequence between the times the two
locks are released on the PCI bus and the PPC bus. All accesses to
the PCI Slave, regardless of who is master is will be retried.

Delayed Transactions
The PCI Slave does not participate in the delayed transaction protocol.

Functional Description

Fast Back-to-Back Transactions

2

The PCI Slave supports both of the fundamental target requirements for
fast back-to-back transactions. The PCI Slave meets the first criteria of
being able to successfully track the state of the PCI bus without the
existence of an IDLE state between transactions. The second criteria
associate with signal turn-around timing is met by default since the PCI
Slave functions as a medium responder.
Latency
The PCI Slave does not have any hardware mechanisms in place to
guarantee that the initial and subsequent target latency requirements are
met. Typically this is not a problem since the bandwidth of the PPC bus far
exceeds the bandwidth of the PCI bus.
Exclusive Access
The PCI Slave fully supports the PCI lock function. From the perspective
of the PPC bus, the PHB enables a lock to a single 32 byte cache line.
When a cache line has been locked, the PHB snoops all transactions on the
PPC bus. If a snoop hit happens, the PHB retries the transaction. Note that
the retry is ‘benign’ since there is no follow-on transaction after the retry
is asserted. The PHB contiues to snoop and retry all accesses to the locked
cache line until a valid ‘unlock’ is presented to the PHB and the last locked
cache line transaction is successfully executed.
Note that the PHB locks the cache line that encompasses the actual address
of the locked transaction. For example, a locked access to offset 0x28
creates a lock on the cache line starting at offset 0x20.
From the perspective of the PCI bus, the PCI Slave locks the entire
resource. Any attempt by a non-locking master to access any PCI resource
represented by the PHB results in the PCI Slave issuing a retry.
Parity
The PCI Slave supports address parity error detection, data parity
generation, and data parity error detection.
Cache Support
The PCI Slave does not participate in the PCI caching protocol.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-25

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

PCI FIFO
A 64-bit by 16 entry FIFO (4 cache lines total) is used to hold data between
the PCI Slave and the PPC Master to ensure that optimum data throughput
is maintained. The same FIFO is used for both read and write transactions.
A 52-bit by 4 entry FIFO is used to hold command information being
passed between the PCI Slave and the PPC Master. If write posting is
enabled, then the maximum number of transactions that may be posted is
limited by the abilities of either the data FIFO or the command FIFO. For
example, one burst transaction, 16 double words long, would make the
data FIFO the limiting factor for write posting. Four single beat
transactions would make the command FIFO be the limiting factor. If
either limit is exceeded then any pending PCI transactions are delayed
(TRDY_ is not asserted) until the PPC Master has completed a portion of
the previously posted transactions and created some room within the
command and/or data FIFOs.
PCI Master
The PCI Master, in conjunction with the capabilities of the PPC Slave,
attempts to move data in either single beat or four-beat (burst) transactions.
The PCI Master supports 32-bit and 64-bit transactions in the following
manner:
❏

All PPC60x single beat transactions, regardless of the byte count,
are subdivided into one or two 32-bit transfers, depending on the
alignment and the size of the transaction. This includes single beat
8-byte transactions.

❏

All PPC60x burst transactions are transferred in 64-bit mode if the
PCI bus has 64-bit mode enabled. If at any time during the
transaction the PCI target indicates it can not support 64-bit mode,
the PCI Master continues to transfer the remaining data within that
transaction in 32-bit mode.

The PCI Master can support Critical Word First (CWF) burst transfers.
The PCI Master divides this transaction into two parts. The first part starts
on the address presented with the CWF transfer request and continues up
to the end of the current cache line. The second transfer starts at the
beginning of the associated cache line and works its way up to (but not
including) the word addressed by the CWF request.

2-26

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

It should be noted that even though the PCI Master can support burst
transactions, a majority of the transaction types handled are single-beat
transfers. Typically PCI space is not configured as cacheable, therefore
burst transactions to PCI space would not naturally occur. It must be
supported since it is conceivable that bursting could happen. For example,
nothing prevents the processor from loading up a cache line with PCI write
data and manually flushing the cache line.
The following paragraphs identify some associations between the
operation of the PCI Master and the PCI 2.1 Local Bus Specification
requirements.
Command Types
The PCI Command Codes generated by the PCI Master depend on the type
of transaction being performed on the PPC bus. Please refer to the section

Addressing
The PCI Master generates all memory transactions using the Linear
Incrementing addressing mode.
Combining, Merging, and Collapsing
The PCI Master does not participate in any of these protocols.
Master Initiated Termination
The PCI Master can handle any defined method of target retry, target
disconnect, or target abort. If the target responds with a retry, the PCI
Master waits for the required two clock periods and attempts the
transaction again. This process continues indefinitely until the transaction
is completed, the transaction is aborted by the target, or if the transaction
is aborted due to a PHB detected bridge lock. The same happens if the
target responds with a disconnect and there is still data to be transferred.
If the PCI Master detects a target abort during a read, any untransferred
read data is filled with ones. If the PCI Master detects a target abort during
a write, any untransferred portions of data will be dropped. The same rule
applies if the PCI Master generates a Master Abort cycle.
Arbitration
The PCI Master can support parking on the PCI bus. There are two cases
where the PCI Master continuously asserts its request.

2-28

❏

If the PCI Master starts a transaction that is going to take more than
one assertion of FRAME_, the PCI Master continuously asserts its
request until the transaction has completed. For example, the PCI
Master continuously asserts requests during the first part of a two
part critical word first transaction.

❏

If at least one command is pending within the PPC FIFO.
Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

The PCI Master always removes its request when it receives a disconnect
or a retry.
There is a case where the PCI Master could assert a request but not actually
perform a bus cycle. This may happen if the PCI Master is placed in the
speculative request mode. Refer to the section titled PCI/PPC Contention
Handling for more information. In no case will the PCI Master assert its
request for more than 16 clocks without starting a transaction.
Fast Back-to-Back Transactions
The PCI Master does not generate fast back-to-back transactions.
Arbitration Latency
Because a bulk of the transactions are limited to single-beat transfers on
PCI, the PCI Master does not implement a Master Latency Timer.
Exclusive Access
The PCI Master is not able to initiate exclusive access transactions.
Address/Data Stepping
The PCI Master does not participate in the Address/Data Stepping
protocol.
Parity
The PCI Master supports address parity generation, data parity generation,
and data parity error detection.
Cache Support
The PCI Master does not participate in the PCI caching protocol.
Generating PCI Cycles
There are four basic types of bus cycles that can be generated on the PCI
bus:

If the MEM bit is set, the PHB performs Memory addressing on the PCI
bus. The PHB takes the PPC bus address, applies the offset specified in the
XSOFFx register, and maps the result directly to the PCI bus.
The IBM CHRP specification describes two approaches for handling PCI
I/O addressing: contiguous or spread address modes. When the MEM bit
is cleared, the IOM bit is used to select between these two modes whenever
a PCI I/O cycle is to be performed.
The PHB performs contiguous I/O addressing when the MEM bit is clear
and the IOM bit is clear. The PHB takes the PPC address, apply the offset
specified in the XSOFFx register, and map the result directly to PCI.
The PHB performs spread I/O addressing when the MEM bit is clear and
the IOM bit is set. The PHB takes the PPC address, applies the offset
specified in the MSOFFx register, and maps the result to PCI as shown in
Figure 2-6.

Figure 2-6. PCI Spread I/O Address Translation
Spread I/O addressing allows each PCI device’s I/O registers to reside on
a different PPC memory page, so device drivers can be protected from
each other using memory page protection.
All I/O accesses must be performed within natural word boundaries. Any
I/O access that is not contained within a natural word boundary results in
unpredictable operation. For example, an I/O transfer of four bytes starting
at address $80000010 is considered a valid transfer. An I/O transfer of four
bytes starting at address $80000011 is considered an invalid transfer since
it crosses the natural word boundary at address $80000013/$80000014.
Generating PCI Configuration Cycles
The PHB uses configuration Mechanism #1 as defined in the PCI Local
Bus Specification 2.1 to generate configuration cycles. Please refer to this
specification for a complete description of this function.
Configuration Mechanism #1 uses an address register/data register format.
Performing a configuration access is a two step process. The first step is to
place the address of the configuration cycle within the
CONFIG_ADDRESS register. Note that this action does not generate any
cycles on the PCI bus.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-31

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

The second step is to either read or write configuration data into the
CONFIG_DATA register. If the CONFIG_ADDRESS register is set up
correctly, the PHB will pass this access on to the PCI bus as a configuration
cycle.

2

The addresses of the CONFIG_ADDRESS and CONFIG_DATA registers
are actually embedded within PCI I/O space. If the CONFIG_ADDRESS
register has been set incorrectly or the access to either the
CONFIG_ADDRESS or CONFIG_DATA register is not 1, 2, or 4 bytes
wide, the PHB will pass the access on to PCI as a normal I/O Space
transfer.
The CONFIG_ADDRESS register is located at offset $CF8 from the
bottom of PCI I/O space. The CONFIG_DATA register is located at offset
$CFC from the bottom of PCI I/O space. The PHB address decode logic
has been designed such that XSADD3 and XSOFF3 must be used for
mapping to PCI Configuration (consequently I/O) space. The
XSADD3/XSOFF3 register group is initialized at reset to allow PCI I/O
access starting at address $80000000. The powerup location (Little Endian
disabled) of the CONFIG_ADDRESS register is $80000CF8, and the
CONFIG_DATA register is located at $80000CFC.
The CONFIG_ADDRESS register must be prefilled with four fields: the
Register Number, the Function Number, the Device Number, and the Bus
Number.
The Register Number and the Function Number get passed along to the
PCI bus as a portion of the lower address bits.
When performing a configuration cycle, the PHB uses the upper 20
address bits as IDSEL lines. During the address phase of a configuration
cycle, only one of the upper address bits will be set.

2-32

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

The device that has its IDSEL connected to the address bit being asserted
is selected for a configuration cycle. The PHB decodes the Device Number
to determine which of the upper address lines to assert. The decoding of
the five-bit Device Number is show as follows:
Device Number

11101

AD29

All Zeros

The Bus Number determines which bus is the target for the configuration
read cycle. The PHB will always host PCI bus #0. Accesses that are to be
performed on the PCI bus connected to the PHB must have zero
programmed into the Bus Number. If the configuration access is targeted
for another PCI bus, then that bus number should be programmed into the
Bus Number field. The PHB will detect a non-zero field and convert the
transaction to a Type 1 Configuration cycle.
Generating PCI Special Cycles
The PHB supports the method stated in PCI Local Bus Specification 2.1
using Configuration Mechanism #1 to generate special cycles. To prime
the PHB for a special cycle, the host processor must write a 32 bit value to
the CONFIG_ADDRESS register. The contents of the write are defined
later in this chapter under the CONFIG_ADDRESS register definition.
After the write to CONFIG_ADDRESS has been accomplished, the next
write to the CONFIG_DATA register causes the PHB to generate a special
cycle on the PCI bus. The write data is driven onto AD[31:0] during the
special cycle’s data phase.

Generating PCI Interrupt Acknowledge Cycles

2

Performing a read from the PIACK register will initiate a single PCI
Interrupt Acknowledge cycle. Any single byte or combination of bytes
may be read from, and the actual byte enable pattern used during the read
will be passed on to the PCI bus. Upon completion of the PCI interrupt
acknowledge cycle, the PHB will present the resulting vector information
obtained from the PCI bus as read data.
PCI Arbiter
The Hawk’s internal PCI arbiter supports up to 8 PCI masters. This
includes Hawk and 7 other external PCI masters. The arbiter can be
configured to be enabled or disabled at reset time by strapping the rd[9] bit
either high for enabled or low for disabled. Table 2-9 describes the pins and

Functional Description

The Hawk’s PCI arbiter has various programming options. It supports 3
different priority schemes: fixed, round robin, and mixed mode. It also
allows various levels of reprioritization programming options within fixed
and mixed modes. Parking can be programmed to any of the requestors, the
last requestor or none. A special bit is added to hold grant asserted for an
agent that initiates a lock cycle. Once a lock cycle is detected, the grant is
held asserted until the PCI LOCK_ pin is released. This feature works only
when the “POL” bit is enabled.
The priority scheme can be programmed by writing the “PRI” field in the
PCI Arbiter control register. The default setting for priority scheme is fixed
mode. The Fixed mode holds each requestor at a fixed level in its
hierarchy. The levels of priority for each requestor are programmable by
writing the “HEIR” field in the PCI Arbiter control register. Table 2-10
describes all available settings for the “HEIR” field in fixed mode.

When the arbiter is programmed for round robin priority mode, the arbiter
maintains fairness and provides equal opportunity to the requestors by
rotating its grants. The contents in “HEIR” field are “don’t cares” when
operated in this mode.

2

When the arbiter is programmed for mixed mode, the 8 requestors are
divided up into 4 groups and each groups is occupied by 2 requestors.
PARB6 and PARB5 are defined in group1; PARB4 and PARB3 are
defined in group 2; PARB2 and PARB1 are defined in group 3; PARB0
and HAWK are defined in group 4. Arbitration is set for round robin mode
between the 2 requestors within each group and set for fixed mode between
the 4 groups. The levels of priority for each group are programmable by
writing the “HEIR” field in the PCI Arbiter control register. Table 2-11

2. Parking disabled is a test mode only and should not be

state.
3. All other combinations in the PRK setting not specified in the
table are invalid and should not be used.
A special function is added to the PCI arbiter to hold the grant asserted
through a lock cycle. When the “POL” bit in the PCI arbiter control
register is set, the grant associated with the agent initiating the lock cycle
will be held asserted until the lock cycle is complete. If this bit is clear, the
arbiter does not distinguish between lock and non-lock cycle.

Endian Conversion
The PHB supports both big- and little-endian data formats. Since the PCI
bus is inherently little-endian, conversion is necessary if all PPC devices
are configured for big-endian operation. The PHB may be programmed to
perform the endian conversion described below.
When PPC Devices are Big-Endian
When all PPC devices are operating in big-endian mode, all data to/from
the PCI bus must be swapped such that the PCI bus looks big endian from
the PPC bus’s perspective. This association is true regardless of whether
the transaction originates on the PCI bus or the PPC bus. This is shown in
Figure 2-7.

Figure 2-7. Big-to-Little-Endian Data Swap
When PPC Devices are Little Endian
When all PPC devices are operating in little-endian mode, the originating
address is modified to remove the exclusive-ORing applied by PPC60x
processors. Note that no data swapping is performed.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-39

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

Address modification happens to the originating address regardless of
whether the transaction originates from the PCI bus or the PPC bus. The
three low order address bits are exclusive-ORed with a three-bit value that
depends on the length of the operand, as shown in Table 2-13.

The only legal data lengths supported in Little-Endian mode
are 1, 2, 4, or 8-byte aligned transfers.

Since this method has some difficulties dealing with unaligned PCIoriginated transfers, the PPC master of the PHB will break up all unaligned
PCI transfers into multiple aligned transfers into multiple aligned transfers
on the PPC bus.
PHB Registers
The PHB registers are not sensitive to changes in Big-Endian and LittleEndian mode. With respect to the PPC bus (but not always the address
internal to the processor), the PPC registers are always represented in BigEndian mode. This means that the processor’s internal view of the PPC
registers appears different depending on which mode the processor
operates.
With respect to the PCI bus, the configuration registers are always
represented in Little-Endian mode.

2-40

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

The CONFIG_ADDRESS and CONFIG_DATA registers are actually
represented in PCI space to the processor and are subject to the Endian
functions. For example, the powerup location of the CONFIG_ADDRESS
register with respect to the PPC bus is $80000cf8 when the PHB is in BigEndian mode. When the PHB is switched to Little-Endian mode, the
CONFIG_ADDRESS register with respect to the PPC bus is $80000cfc.
Note that in both cases the address generated internal to the processor will
be $80000cf8.
The contents of the CONFIG_ADDRESS register are not subject to the
Endian function.
The data associated with PIACK accesses is subject to the Endian
swapping function. The address of a PIACK cycle is undefined; therefore,
address modification during Little-Endian mode is not an issue.

Error Handling
The PHB is capable of detecting and reporting the following errors to one
or more PPC masters:
❏

XBTO - PPC address bus time-out

❏

XDPE - PPC data parity error

❏

PSMA - PCI master signalled master abort

❏

PRTA - PCI master received target abort

❏

PPER - PCI parity error

❏

PSER - PCI system error

Each of these error conditions will cause an error status bit to be set in the
PPC Error Status Register (ESTAT). If a second error is detected while any
of the error bits is set, the OVFL bit is asserted, but none of the error bits
are changed. Each bit in the ESTAT may be cleared by writing a 1 to it;
writing a 0 to it has no effect. New error bits may be set only when all
previous error bits have been cleared.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-41

2

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

When any bit in the ESTAT is set, the PHB will attempt to latch as much
information as possible about the error in the PPC Error Address
(EADDR) and Attribute Registers (EATTR). Information is saved as
follows:

2

Error
Status

Error Address and
Attributes

XBTO

From PPC bus

XDPE

From PPC bus

PRTA

From PCI bus

PSMA

From PCI bus

PPER

Invalid

PSER

Invalid

Each ESTAT error bit may be programmed to generate a machine check
and/or a standard interrupt. The error response is programmed through the
PPC Error Enable Register (EENAB) on a source by source basis. When a
machine check is enabled, either the XID field in the EATTR Register or
the DFLT bit in the EENAB Register determines the master to which the
machine check is directed. For errors in which the master who originated
the transaction can be determined, the XID field is used. For errors not
associated with a particular PPC master, or associated with masters other
than processor 0,1 or 2, the DFLT bit is used. One example of an error
condition which cannot be associated with a particular PPC master would
be a PCI system error.

Watchdog Timers
PHB features two watchdog timers called Watchdog Timer 1 (WDT1) and
Watchdog Timer 2 (WDT2). Although both timers are functionally
equivalent, each timer operates completely independent of each other.
WDT1 and WDT2 are initialized at reset to a count value of 8 seconds and
16 seconds respectively. The timers are designed to be reloaded by
software at any time.

2-42

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

When not being loaded, the timer will continuously decrement itself until
either reloaded by software or a count of zero is reached. If a timer reaches
a count of zero, an output signal will be asserted and the count will remain
at zero until reloaded by software or PHB reset is asserted. External logic
can use the output signals of the timers to generate interrupts, machine
checks, etc.
Each timer is composed of a prescaler and a counter. The prescaler
determines the resolution of the timer, and is programmable to any binary
value between 1 microseconds and 32,768 microsecons. The counter
counts in the units provided by the prescaler. For example, the watchdog
timer would reach a count of zero within 24 microseconds if the prescaler
was programmed to 2 microseconds and the counter was programmed to
12.
The watchdog timers are controlled by registers mapped within the PPC
control register space. Each timer has a WDTxCNTL register and a
WDTxSTAT register. The WDTxCNTL register can be used to start or
stop the timer, write a new reload value into the timer, or cause the timer
to initialize itself to a previously written reload value. The WDTxSTAT
register is used to read the instantaneous count value of the watchdog
timer.
Programming of the Watchdog Timers is performed through the
WDTxCNTL register and is a two step process.
❏

Step 1 is to ‘arm’ the WDTxCNTL register by writing
PATTERN_1 into the KEY field. Only the KEY byte lane may be
selected during this process. The WDTxCNTL register will not arm
itself if any of the other byte lanes are selected or the KEY field is
written with any other value than PATTERN_1. The operation of
the timer itself remains unaffected by this write.

❏

Step 2 is to write the new programming information to the
WDTxCNTL register. The KEY field byte lane must be selected
and must be written with PATTERN_2 for the write to take affect.
The effects on the WDTxCNTL register depend on the byte lanes
that are written to during step 2 and are shown in Table 2-14.

PCI/PPC Contention Handling
The PHB has a mechanism that detects when there is a possible resource
contention problem (i.e., deadlock) as a result of overlapping PPC and PCI
initiated transactions. The PPC Slave, PCI Slave, and PCI Master
functions contain the logic needed to implement this feature.
The PCI Slave and the PPC Slave contribute to this mechanism in the
following manner. Each slave function will issue a stall signal to the PCI
Master anytime it is currently processing a transaction that must have
control of the opposing bus before the transaction can be completed. The
events that activate this signal are:
❏

Read cycle with no read data in the FIFO

❏

Non-posted write cycle

❏

Posted write cycle and FIFO full

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-45

2

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

A simultaneous indication of a stall from both slaves means that a bridge
lock has happened. To resolve this, one of the slaves must back out of its
currently pending transaction. This will allow the other stalled slave to
proceed with its transaction. When the PCI Master detects bridge lock, it
will always signal the PPC Slave to take actions to resolve the bridge lock.

2

If the PPC bus is currently supporting a read cycle of any type, the PPC
Slave will terminate the pending cycle with a retry. Note that if the read
cycle is across a mod-4 address boundary (i.e. from address 0x...02, 3
bytes), it is possible that a portion of the read could have been completed
before the stall condition was detected. The previously read data will be
discarded and the current transaction will be retried.
If the PPC bus is currently supporting a posted write transaction, the
transaction will be allowed to complete since this type of transaction is
guaranteed completion. If the PPC bus is currently supporting a nonposted write transaction, the transaction will be terminated with a retry.
Note that a mod-4 non-posted write transaction could be interrupted
between write cycles, and thereby results in a partially completed write
cycle. It is recommended that write cycles to write-sensitive, non-posted
locations be performed on mod-4 address boundaries.
The PCI Master must make the determination to perform the resolution
function since it must make some decisions on possibly removing a
currently pending command from the PPC FIFO.
There are some performance issues related to bridge lock resolution. PHB
offers two mechanism that allow fine tuning of the bridge lock resolution
function.
Programmable Lock Resolution
Consider the scenario where the PPC Slave is hosting a read cycle and the
PCI Slave is hosting a posted write transaction. If both transactions happen
at roughly the same time, then the PPC Slave will hold off its transaction
until the PCI Slave can fill the PCI FIFO with write posted data. Once this
happens, both slaves will be stalled and a bridge lock resolution cycle will
happen. The effect of this was to make the PPC Slave waste PPC bus
bandwidth. In addition, a full PCI FIFO will cause the PCI Slave to start
issuing wait states to the PCI bus.

2-46

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

From the perspective of the PCI bus, a better solution would be to select a
PCI FIFO threshold that will allow the bridge lock resolution cycle to
happen early enough to keep the PCI FIFO from getting filled. A similar
case exists with regard to PCI read cycles. Having the bridge lock
resolution associated with a particular PCI FIFO threshold would allow the
PPC Master to get an early enough start at prefetching read data to keep the
PCI Slave from starving for read data.
From the perspective of the PPC bus, a selective FIFO threshold will make
the PPC Slave release the PPC bus at an earlier time thereby reducing
wasted PPC bus bandwidth. PHB offers an option to have the PPC Slave
remove a stalled transaction immediately upon detecting any PCI Slave
activity. This option would help in the case where distributing PPC60x bus
bandwidth between multiple masters is of the utmost importance.
The PHB is tuned to provide the most efficient solution for bridge lock
resolution under normal operating conditions. If further fine tuning is
desired, the WLRT/RLRT (Write Lock Resolution Threshold/Read Lock
Resolution Threshold) fields within the HCSR can be adjusted
accordingly. Note that the FIFO full option exists mainly to remain
architecturally backwards compatible with previous bridge designs.
Speculative PCI Request
There is a case where the processor could get starved for PCI read data
while the PCI Slave is hosting multiple PPC60x bound write cycles. While
attempting to perform a read from PCI space, the processor would
continually get retried as a result of bridge lock resolution.
Between PCI writes, the PPC Master will be taking PPC60x bus bandwidth
trying to empty write posted data, which will further hamper the ability of
the processor to complete its read transaction.
PHB offers an optional speculative PCI request mode that helps the
processor complete read cycles from PCI space. If a bridge lock resolution
cycle happens when the PPC Slave is hosting a compelled cycle, the PCI
Master will speculatively assert a request on the PCI bus. Sometime later
when the processor comes back and retries the compelled cycle, the results
of the PCI Master holding will increase the chance of the processor
successfully completing its cycle.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-47

2

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

PCI speculative requesting will only be effective if the PCI arbiter will at
least some times consider the PHB to be a higher priority master than the
master performing the PPC60x bound write cycles. The PCI Master obeys
the PCI specification for benign requests and will unconditionally remove
a speculative request after 16 clocks.

2

The PHB considers the speculative PCI request mode to be the default
mode of operation. If this is not desired, then the speculative PCI request
mode can be disable by changing the SPRQ bit in the HCSR.

Transaction Ordering
All transactions will be completed on the destination bus in the same order
that they are completed on the originating bus. A read or a compelled write
transaction will force all previously issued write posted transactions to be
flushed from the FIFO. All write posted transfers will be completed before
a read or compelled write begins to ensure that all transfers are completed
in the order issued.
All PCI Configuration cycles intended for internal PHB registers will also
be delayed if PHB is busy so that control bits which may affect write
postings do not change until all write posted transactions have completed.
For the same reason all PPC60x write posted transfers will also be
completed before any access to the PHB PPC registers begins.
The PCI Local Bus Specification 2.1 states that posted write buffers in both
directions must be flushed before completing a read in either direction.
PHB supports this by providing two optional FIFO flushing options. The
XFBR (PPC60x Flush Before Read) bit within the GCSR register controls
the flushing of PCI write posted data when performing PPC-originated
read transactions. The PFBR (PCI Flush Before Read) bit within the
GCSR register controls the flushing of PPC write posted data when
performing PCI-originated read transactions. The PFBR and XFBR
functions are completely independent of each other; however, both
functions must be enabled to guarantee full compliance with PCI Local
Bus Specification 2.1.
When the XFBR bit is set, the PHB will handle read transactions
originating from the PPC bus in the following manner:

2-48

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

❏

Write posted transactions originating from the processor bus are
flushed by the nature of the FIFO architecture. The PHB will hold
the processor with wait states until the PCI bound FIFO is empty.

❏

Write posted transactions originated from the PCI bus are flushed
whenever the PCI slave has accepted a write-posted transaction and
the transaction has not completed on the PPC bus.

The PPC Slave address decode logic settles out several clocks after the
assertion of TS_, at which time the PPC Slave can determine the
transaction type. If it is a read and XFBR is enabled, the PPC Slave will
look at the ps_fbrabt signal. If this signal is active, the PPC Slave will retry
the processor.
When the PFBR bit is set, PHB will handle read transactions originating
from the PCI bus in the following manner:
❏

Write posted transactions originating from the PCI bus are flushed
by the nature of the FIFO architecture. The PHB will hold the PCI
Master with wait states until the PPC bound FIFO is empty.

❏

Write posted transactions originated from the PPC60x bus are
flushed in the following manner. The PPC Slave will set a signal
called xs_fbrabt anytime it has committed to performing a posted
write transaction. This signal will remain asserted until the PCI
bound FIFO count has reached zero.

The PCI Slave decode logic settles out several clocks after the assertion of
FRAME_, at which time the PCI Slave can determine the transaction type.
If it is a read and PFBR is enabled, the PCI Slave will look at the xs_fbrabt
signal. If this signal is active, the PCI Slave will retry the PCI Master.

PHB Hardware Configuration
Hawk has the ability to perform custom hardware configuration to
accommodate different system requirements. The PHB has several
functions that may be optionally enabled or disabled using passive
hardware external to Hawk. The selection process occurs at the first rising

Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller (MPIC)

2

The MPIC is a multi-processor structured intelligent interrupt controller.

MPIC Features:
❏

MPIC programming model

❏

Supports two processors

❏

Supports 16 external interrupts

❏

Supports 15 programmable Interrupt & Processor Task priority
levels

❏

Supports the connection of an external 8259 for ISA/AT
compatibility

❏

Distributed interrupt delivery for external I/O interrupts

❏

Direct/Multicast interrupt delivery for Interprocessor and timer
interrupts

❏

Four Interprocessor Interrupt sources

❏

Four timers

❏

Processor initialization control

Architecture
The PCI Slave of the PHB implements two address decoders for placing
the MPIC registers in PCI IO or PCI Memory space. Access to these
registers requires PPC and PCI bus mastership. These accesses include
interrupt and timer initialization and interrupt vector reads.
The MPIC receives interrupt inputs from 16 external sources, four
interprocessor sources, four timer sources, and one Hawk internal error
interrupt source. The externally sourced interrupts 1 through 15 have two
modes of activation; low level or active high positive edge. External
interrupt 0 can be either level or edge activated with either polarity. The
Hawk internal error interrupt request is an active low level sensitive
interrupt. The Interprocessor and timers interrupts are event activated.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-51

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

If the OPIC bit (refer to the General Control-Status/Feature Registers
section for more information) is enabled, the Hawk detected errors will be
passed on to MPIC. If the OPIC bit is disabled, Hawk detected errors are
passed directly to the processor 0 interrupt pin.

2

External Interrupt Interface
The external interrupt interface functions as either a parallel or a serial
interface depending on the EINTT bit in the MPIC Global Configuration
Register. If this bit is set, MPIC is in serial mode. Otherwise, MPIC
operates in the parallel mode.
In serial mode, all 16 external interrupts are serially scanned into MPIC
using the SI_STA and SI_DAT pins as shown in Figure 2-8.
In parallel mode, 16 external signal pins are used as interrupt inputs
(interrupts 0 through 15).

PCLK
SI_STA
SI_DAT

EXT0 EXT1 EXT2

EXT13EXT14 EXT15

Figure 2-8. Serial Mode Interrupt Scan
Using PCLK as a reference, external logic will pulse SI_STA one clock
period indicating the beginning of an interrupt scan period. On the same
clock period that SI_STA is asserted, external logic will feed the state of
EXT0 on the SI_DAT pin. External logic will continue to sequentially
place EXT1 through EXT15 on SI_DAT during the next 15 clock periods.
This process may be repeated at any rate, with the fastest possible next
assertion of SI_STA on the clock following the sampling of EXT15. Each
scan process must always scan exactly 16 external interrupts.

CSR’s Readability

2

Unless explicitly specified, all registers are readable and return the last
value written. The exceptions are the IPI dispatch registers and the EOI
registers which return zeros on reads, the interrupt source ACT bit which
returns current interrupt source status, the interrupt acknowledge register,
which returns the vector of the highest priority interrupt which is currently
pending, and reserved bits which returns zeros. The interrupt acknowledge
register is also the only register which exhibits any read side-effects.

Interrupt Source Priority
Each interrupt source is assigned a priority value in the range from 0 to 15
where 15 is the highest. In order for delivery of an interrupt to take place,
the priority of the source must be greater than that of the destination
processor. Therefore, setting a source priority to zero inhibits that
interrupt.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-53

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

2

Processor’s Current Task Priority
Each processor has a task priority register which is set by system software
to indicate the relative importance of the task running on that processor.
The processor will not receive interrupts with a priority level equal to or
lower than its current task priority. Therefore, setting the current task
priority to 15 prohibits the delivery of all interrupts to the associated
processor.

Nesting of Interrupt Events
A processor is guaranteed never to have an in service interrupt preempted
by an equal or lower priority source. An interrupt is considered to be in
service from the time its vector is returned during an interrupt
acknowledge cycle until an EOI (End of Interrupt) is received for that
interrupt. The EOI cycle indicates the end of processing for the highest
priority in service interrupt.

Spurious Vector Generation
Under certain circumstances the MPIC will not have a valid vector to
return to the processor during an interrupt acknowledge cycle. In these
cases the spurious vector from the spurious vector register will be returned.
The following cases would cause a spurious vector fetch:

2-54

❏

INT is asserted in response to an externally sourced interrupt, which
is activated with level sensitive logic, and the asserted level is
negated before the interrupt is acknowledged.

❏

INT is asserted for an interrupt source, which is masked using the
mask bit, in the Vector-Priority register before the interrupt is
acknowledged.

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller (MPIC)

Interprocessor Interrupts (IPI)

2

Processors 0 and 1 can generate interrupts which are targeted for the other
or both processors. There are four Interprocessor Interrupts (IPI) channels.
The interrupts are initiated by writing a bit in the IPI dispatch registers. If
subsequent IPI’s are initiated before the first is acknowledged, only one IPI
will be generated. The IPI channels deliver interrupts in Direct Mode and
can be directed to more than one processor.

8259 Compatibility
The MPIC provides a mechanism to support PC-AT compatible chip sets
using the 8259 interrupt controller architecture. After power-on reset, the
MPIC defaults to 8259 pass-through mode. In this mode, if the OPIC is
enabled, interrupts from external source number 0 (the interrupt signal
from the 8259 is connected to this external interrupt source on the MPIC)
are passed directly to processor 0. If the pass-through mode is disabled and
the OPIC is enabled, the 8259 interrupts are delivered using the priority
and distribution mechanisms of the MPIC.
MPIC does not interact with the vector fetch from the 8259 interrupt
controller.

Hawk Internal Errror Interrupt
Hawk’s PHB and SMC detected errors are grouped together and sent to the
interrupt logic as a singular interrupt source (Hawk internal error
interrupt). This Hawk internal error interrupt request is an active low-level
sensitive interrupt. The interrupt delivery mode for this interrupt is
distributed. When the OPIC is disabled, the Hawk internal error interrupt
will be passed directly on to processor 0 INT pin.
For system implementations where the MPIC controller is not used, the
Hawk internal error condition will be made available by a signal which is
external to the Hawk ASIC. Presumably this signal will be connected to an
externally sourced interrupt input of an MPIC controller of a different
device. Since the MPIC specification defines external I/O interrupts to
operate in the distributed mode, the delivery mode of this error interrupt
should be consistent.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-55

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

2

Timers
There is a divide by eight pre scaler which is synchronized to the PCI
clock. The output of the pre scaler enables the decrement of the four timers.
The timers may be used for system timing or to generate periodic
interrupts. Each timer has four registers, which are used for configuration
and control. They are:
❏

Current Count Register

❏

Base Count Register

❏

Vector-Priority Register

❏

Destination Register

Interrupt Delivery Modes
The direct and distributed interrupt delivery modes are supported. Note
that the direct delivery mode has sub modes of multicast or non-multicast.
The IPIs and Timer interrupts operate in the direct delivery mode. The
externally sourced, or I/O interrupts operate in the distributed mode.
In the direct delivery mode, the interrupt is directed to one or both
processors. If it is directed to two processors (i.e., multicast), it will be
delivered to two processors. The interrupt is delivered to the processor
when the priority of the interrupt is greater than the priority contained in
the task register for that processor, and when the priority of the interrupt is
greater than any interrupt which is in-service for that processor. An
interrupt is considered to be in service from the time its vector is returned
during an interrupt acknowledge cycle until an EOI is received for that
interrupt. The EOI cycle indicates the end of processing for the highest
priority in service interrupt.

2-56

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller (MPIC)

In the distributed delivery mode, the interrupt is pointed to one or more
processors but it will be delivered to only one processor. Therefore, for
externally sourced or I/O interrupts, multicast delivery is not supported.
The interrupt is delivered to a processor when the priority of the interrupt
is greater than the priority contained in the task register for that processor,
when the priority of the interrupt is greater than any interrupt which is inservice for that processor, when the priority of that interrupt is the highest
of all interrupts pending for that processor, and when that interrupt is not
in-service for the other processor. If both destination bits are set for each
processor, the interrupt will be delivered to the processor that has a lower
task register priority. Note, due to a deadlock condition that can occur
when the task register priorities for each processor are the same and both
processors are targeted for interrupt delivery, the interrupt will be
delivered to processor 0 or processor 1 as determined by the TIE mode.
Additionally, if priorities are set the same for competing interrupts,
external int. 0 is given the highest priority in hardware followed by
external interrupt 1 through 15 and then followed by timer 0 through timer
3 and followed by IPI 0 and 1. For example, if both ext0 and ext1 interrupts
are pending with the same assigned priority; during the following interrupt
acknowledge cycles, the first vector returned shall be that of ext0 and then
ext1. This is an arbitrary choice.

Program Visible Registers

2

These are the registers that software can access. They are described in
detail in the MPIC Registers section.
Interrupt Pending Register (IPR)
The interrupt signals to MPIC are qualified and synchronized to the clock
by the IPR. If the interrupt source is internal to the Hawk ASIC or external
with their Sense bit = 0 (edge sensitive), a bit is set in the IPR. That bit is
cleared when the interrupt associated with that bit is acknowledged. If the
interrupt source is external and level activated, the output from the IPR is
not negated until the level into the IPR is negated.
Externally sourced interrupts are qualified based upon their Sense and/or
Pol bits in the Vector-Priority register. IPI and Timer Interrupts are
generated internally to the Hawk ASIC and are qualified by their
Destination bit. Since the internally generated interrupts use direct delivery
mode with multicast capability, there are two bits in the IPR, one for each
processor, associated with each IPI and Timer interrupt source.
The MASK bits from the Vector-Priority registers are used to qualify the
output of the IPR. Therefore, if an interrupt condition is detected when the
MASK bit is set, that interrupt will be requested when the MASK bit is
lowered.
Interrupt Selector (IS)
There is a Interrupt Selector (IS) for each processor. The IS receives
interrupt requests from the IPR. If the interrupt requests are from an
external source, they are qualified by the destination bit for that interrupt
and processor. If they are from an internal source, they have been qualified.
The output of the IS will be the highest priority interrupt that has been
qualified. This output is the priority of the selected interrupt and its source
identification. The IS will resolve an interrupt request in two PHB clock
ticks.
The IS also receives a second set of inputs from the ISR. During the End
Of Interrupt cycle, these inputs are used to select which bits are to be
cleared in the ISR.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

2-59

Hawk PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

2

Interrupt Request Register (IRR)
There is a Interrupt Request Register (IRR) for each processor. The IRR
always passes the output of the IS except during Interrupt Acknowledge
cycles. This guarantees that the vector which is read from the Interrupt
Acknowledge Register does not change due to the arrival of a higher
priority interrupt. The IRR also serves as a pipeline register for the two tick
propagation time through the IS.
In-Service Register (ISR)
There is a In-Service Register (ISR) for each processor. The contents of the
ISR are the priority and source of all interrupts, which are in-service. The
ISR receives a bit-set command during Interrupt Acknowledge cycles and
a bit-clear command during End Of Interrupt cycles.
The ISR is implemented as a 40 bit register with individual bit set and clear
functions. Fifteen bits are used to store the priority level of each interrupt
which is in-service. Twenty-five bits are used to store the source
identification of each interrupt which is in service. Therefore, there is one
bit for each possible interrupt priority and one bit for each possible
interrupt source.
Interrupt Router
The Interrupt Router monitors the outputs from the ISR’s, Current Task
Priority Registers, Destination Registers, and the IRR’s to determine when
to assert a processor’s INT pin.
When considering the following rule sets, it is important to remember that
there are two types of inputs to the Interrupt Selectors. If the interrupt is a
distributed class interrupt, there is a single bit in the IPR associated with
this interrupt and it is delivered to both Interrupt Selectors. This IPR bit is
qualified by the destination register contents for that interrupt before the
Interrupt Selector compares its priority to the priority of all other
requesting interrupts for that processor. If the interrupt is programmed to
be edge sensitive, the IPR bit is cleared when the vector for that interrupt
is returned when the Interrupt Acknowledge register is examined. On the
other hand, if the interrupt is a direct/multicast class interrupt, there are two
bits in the IPR associated with this interrupt. One bit for each processor.

2-60

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller (MPIC)

Then one of these bits is delivered to each Interrupt Selector. Since this
interrupt source can be multicast, each of these IPR bits must be cleared
separately when the vector is returned for that interrupt to a particular
processor.
If one of the following sets of conditions is true, the interrupt pin for
processor 0 is driven active.
❏

Set1
– The source ID in IRR_0 is from an external source.
– The destination bit for processor 1 is 0 for this interrupt.
– The priority from IRR_0 is greater than the highest priority in
ISR_0.
– The priority from IRR_0 is greater than the contents of task
register_0.

❏

Set2
– The source ID in IRR_0 is from an external source.
– The destination bit for processor 1 is a 1 for this interrupt.
– The source ID in IRR_0 is not present is ISR_1.
– The priority from IRR_0 is greater than the highest priority in
ISR_0.
– The priority from IRR_0 is greater than the Task Register_0
contents.
– The contents of Task Register_0 is less than the contents of Task
Register_1.

❏

Set3
– The source ID in IRR_0 is from an internal source.
– The priority from IRR_0 is greater than the highest priority in
ISR_0.
– The priority from IRR_0 is greater than the Task Register_0
contents.

There is a possibility for a priority tie between the two processors when
resolving external interrupts. In that case, the interrupt will be delivered to
processor 0 or processor 1 as determined by the TIE mode bit. This case is
not defined in the above rule set.

Programming Notes
External Interrupt Service
The following summarizes how an external interrupt is serviced:

2-62

❏

An external interrupt occurs.

❏

The processor state is saved in the machine status save/restore
registers. A new value is loaded into the Machine State Register
(MSR). The External Interrupt Enable bit in the new MSR (MSRee)
is set to zero. Control is transferred to the O/S external interrupt
handler.

❏

The external interrupt handler calculates the address of the Interrupt
Acknowledge register for this processor (MPIC Base Address +
0x200A0) + (processor ID shifted left 12 bits).

❏

The external interrupt handler issues an Interrupt Acknowledge
request to read the interrupt vector from the Hawk’s MPIC. If the
interrupt vector indicates the interrupt source is the 8259, the
interrupt handler issues a second Interrupt Acknowledge request to
read the interrupt vector from the 8259. The Hawk’s MPIC does not
interact with the vector fetch from the 8259.

❏

The interrupt handler saves the processor state and other interruptspecific information in system memory and re-enables for external
interrupts (the MSRee bit is set to 1). MPIC blocks interrupts from
sources with equal or lower priority until an End-of-Interrupt is
received for that interrupt source. Interrupts from higher priority
interrupt sources continue to be enabled. If the interrupt source is the
8259, the interrupt handler issues an EOI request to the MPIC. This
resets the In-Service bit for the 8259 within the MPIC and allows it
to recognize higher priority interrupt requests, if any, from the 8259.
If none of the nested interrupt modes of the 8259 are enabled, the
interrupt handler issues an EOI request to the 8259.

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller (MPIC)

– The device driver interrupt service routine associated with this
interrupt vector is invoked.
– If the interrupt source was not the 8259, the interrupt handler
issues an EOI request for this interrupt vector to the MPIC. If the
interrupt source was the 8259 and any of the nested interrupt
modes of the 8259 are enabled, the interrupt handler issues an
EOI request to the 8259.
Normally, interrupts from ISA devices are connected to the 8259 interrupt
controller. ISA devices typically rely on the 8259 Interrupt Acknowledge
to flush buffers between the ISA device and system memory. If interrupts
from ISA devices are directly connected to the MPIC (bypassing the
8259), the device driver interrupt service routine must read status from the
ISA device to ensure buffers between the device and system memory are
flushed.
Reset State
After power on reset, the MPIC state is:
❏

Current task priority for all CPUs set to 15.

❏

All interrupt source priorities set to zero.

Operation
Interprocessor Interrupts
Four interprocessor interrupt (IPI) channels are provided for use by all
processors. During system initialization the IPI vector/priority registers for
each channel should be programmed to set the priority and vector returned
for each IPI event. During system operation a processor may generate an
IPI by writing a destination mask to one of the IPI dispatch registers. Note
that each IPI dispatch register is shared by both processors. Each IPI
dispatch register has two addresses but they are shared by both processors.
That is there is a total of four IPI dispatch registers in the MPIC.
The IPI mechanism may be used for self interrupts by programming the
dispatch register with the bit mask for the originating processor.
Dynamically Changing I/O Interrupt Configuration
The interrupt controller provides a mechanism for safely changing the
vector, priority, or destination of I/O interrupt sources. This is provided to
support systems which allow dynamic configuration of I/O devices. In
order to change the vector, priority, or destination of an active interrupt
source, the following sequence should be performed:
❏

Mask the source using the MASK bit in the vector/priority register.

❏

Wait for the activity bit (ACT) for that source to be cleared.

❏

Make the desired changes.

❏

Unmask the source.

This sequence ensures that the vector, priority, destination, and mask
information remain valid until all processing of pending interrupts is
complete.

EOI Register

2
Each processor has a private EOI register which is used to signal the end
of processing for a particular interrupt event. If multiple nested interrupts
are in service, the EOI command terminates the interrupt service of the
highest priority source. Once an interrupt is acknowledged, only sources
of higher priority will be allowed to interrupt the processor until the EOI
command is received. This register should always be written with a value
of zero which is the nonspecific EOI command.

Interrupt Acknowledge Register
Upon receipt of an interrupt signal, the processor may read this register to
retrieve the vector of the interrupt source which caused the interrupt.
8259 Mode
The 8259 mode bits control the use of an external 8259 pair for PC-AT
compatibility. Following reset, this mode is set for pass through which
essentially disables the advanced controller and passes an 8259 input on
external interrupt source 0 directly through to processor zero. During
interrupt controller initialization, this channel should be programmed for
mixed mode in order to take advantage of the interrupt delivery modes.
Current Task Priority Level
Each processor has a separate Current Task Priority Level register. The
system software uses this register to indicate the relative priority of the task
running on the corresponding processor. The interrupt controller will not
deliver an interrupt to a processor unless it has a priority level which is
greater than the current task priority level of that processor. This value is
also used in determining the destination for interrupts which are delivered
using the distributed deliver mode.

Architectural Notes
The hardware and software overhead required to update the task priority
register synchronously with instruction execution may far outweigh the
anticipated benefits of the task priority register. To minimize this
overhead, the interrupt controller architecture should allow the task
priority register to be updated asynchronously with respect to instruction
execution. Lower priority interrupts may continue to occur for an
indeterminate number of cycles after the processor has updated the task
priority register. If this is not acceptable, the interrupt controller
architecture should recommend that, if the task priority register is not
implemented with the processor, the task priority register should only be
updated when the processor enters or exits an idle state.
Only when the task priority register is integrated within the processor, such
that it can be accessed as quickly as the MSRee bit, for example, should
the architecture require the task priority register be updated synchronously
with instruction execution.

Effects of Interrupt Serialization
All external interrupt sources that are level sensitive must be negated at
least N PCI clocks prior to doing an EOI cycle for that interrupt source,
where N is equal to the number of PCI clocks necessary to scan in the
external interrupts. In the example shown, 16 external interrupts are
scanned in, N = 16. Serializing the external interrupts causes a delay
between the time that the external interrupt source changes level and when
MPIC logic actually sees the change. Spurious interrupts can result if an
EOI cycle occurs before the interrupt source is seen to be negated by MPIC
logic.

This section provides a detailed description of all PHB registers. The
section is divided into two parts: the first covers the PPC Registers and the
second covers the PCI Configuration Registers. The PPC Registers are
accessible only from the PPC bus using any single beat valid transfer size.
The PCI Configuration Registers reside in PCI configuration space. These
are primarily accessible from the PPC bus by using the
CONFIG_ADDRESS and CONFIG_DATA registers. The PPC Registers
are described first; the PCI Configuration Registers are described next. A
complete discussion of the MPIC registers can be found later in this
chapter.
It is possible to place the base address of the PPC registers at either
$FEFF0000 or $FEFE0000. Having two choices for where the base
registers reside allows the system designer to use two of the Hawk’s PCI
Host Bridges connected to one PPC60x bus. Please refer to the section
titled PHB Hardware Configuration for more information. All references
to the PPC registers of PHB within this document are made with respect to
the base address $FEFF0000.
The following conventions are used in the Hawk register charts:

❏

R/W

❏

S

Writing a ONE to this field sets this field.

❏

generated incorrectly. If the bit is cleared, the PHB will
generate correct data parity.

APEx

Address Parity Error Enable. These bits are used for
test reasons to purposely inject address parity errors
whenever the PHB is acting as a PPC bus master. An
address parity error will be created on the corresponding
PPC address parity bus if a bit is set. For example, setting
APE0 will cause AP0 to be generated incorrectly. If the bit
is cleared, the PHB will generate correct address parity.

The Error Enable Register (EENAB) controls how the PHB is to respond
to the detection of various errors. In particular, each error type can
uniquely be programmed to generate a machine check, generate an
interrupt, generate both, or generate neither. The bits within the ETEST are
defined as follows:

DFLT

Default PPC Master ID. This bit determines which
MCHK_ pin will be asserted for error conditions in which
the PPC Master ID cannot be determined or the PHB was
the PPC Master. For example, in the event of a PCI parity
error for a transaction in which the PHB’s PCI Master was
not involved, the PPC Master ID cannot be determined.
When DFLT is set, MCHK1_ is used. When DFLT is
clear, MCHK0_ will be used.

XBTOM

PPC Address Bus Time-out Machine Check Enable.
When this bit is set, the XBTO bit in the ESTAT register
will be used to assert the MCHK output to the current
address bus master. When this bit is clear, MCHK will not
be asserted.

XDPEM

PPC Data Parity Error Machine Check Enable. When
this bit is set, the XDPE bit in the ESTAT register will be
used to assert the MCHK output to the current address bus
master. When this bit is clear, MCHK will not be asserted.

PCI Parity Error Machine Check Enable. When this
bit is set, the PPER bit in the ESTAT register will be used
to assert the MCHK output to bus master 0. When this bit
is clear, MCHK will not be asserted.

PSERM

PCI System Error Machine Check Enable. When this
bit is set, the PSER bit in the ESTAT register will be used
to assert the MCHK output to bus master 0. When this bit
is clear, MCHK will not be asserted.

PSMAM

PCI Signalled Master Abort Machine Check Enable.
When this bit is set, the PSMA bit in the ESTAT register
will be used to assert the MCHK output to the bus master
which initiated the transaction. When this bit is clear,
MCHK will not be asserted.

PRTAM

PCI Master Received Target Abort Machine Check
Enable. When this bit is set, the PRTA bit in the ESTAT
register will be used to assert the MCHK output to the bus
master which initiated the transaction. When this bit is

Registers

KEY

Key. This field is used during the two step arming process
of the Control register. This field is sensitive to the
following data patterns:
PATTERN_1 = $55
PATTERN_2 = $AA
The Control register will be in the armed state if
PATTERN_1 is written to the KEY field. The Control
register will be changed if in the armed state and
PATTERN_2 is written to the KEY field. An incorrect
sequence of patterns will cause the Control register to be
in the unarmed state.
A value of all zeros will always be returned within the
KEY field during read cycles.

ENAB

ENAB. This field determines whether or not the WDT is
enabled. If a one is written to this bit, the timer will be
enabled. A zero written to this bit will disable the timer.
The ENAB bit may only be modified on the second step
of a successful two step arming process.

ARM

ARMED. This read-only bit indicates the armed state of
the register. If this bit is a zero, the register is unarmed. If
this bit is a one, the register is armed for a write.

RES

PCI Registers

2

The PCI Configuration Registers are compliant with the configuration
register set described in the PCI Local Bus Specification, Revision 2.1.
The CONFIG_ADDRESS and CONFIG_DATA registers described in
this section are accessed from the PPC bus within PCI I/O space.
All write operations to reserved registers will be treated as no-ops. That is,
the access will be completed normally on the bus and the data will be
discarded. Read accesses to reserved or unimplemented registers will be
completed normally and a data value of 0 will be returned.
The PCI Configuration Register map of the PHB is shown in Table 2-17.
The PCI I/O Register map of the PHB is shown in Table 2-18

P66M

PCI66 MHz. This bit indicates the PHB is capable of
supporting a 66.67 MHz PCI bus.

FAST

Fast Back-to-Back Capable. This bit indicates that the
PHB is capable of accepting fast back-to-back
transactions with different targets.

DPAR

Data Parity Detected. This bit is set when three
conditions are met: 1) the PHB asserted PERR_ itself or
observed PERR_ asserted; 2) the PHB was the PCI Master
for the transfer in which the error occurred; 3) the PERR
bit in the PCI Command Register is set. This bit is cleared
by writing it to 1; writing a 0 has no effect.

SELTIM

DEVSEL Timing. This field indicates that the PHB will
always assert DEVSEL_ as a ‘medium’ responder.

SIGTA

Signalled Target Abort. This bit is set by the PCI Slave
whenever it terminates a transaction with a target-abort. It
is cleared by writing it to 1; writing a 0 has no effect.

RCVTA

Received Target Abort. This bit is set by the PCI Master
whenever its transaction is terminated by a target-abort. It
is cleared by writing it to 1; writing a 0 has no effect.

RCVMA

Received Master Abort. This bit is set by the PCI Master
whenever its transaction (except for Special Cycles) is
terminated by a master-abort. It is cleared by writing it to
1; writing a 0 has no effect.

SIGSE

Signaled System Error. This bit is set whenever the PHB
asserts SERR_. It is cleared by writing it to 1; writing a 0
has no effect.

RCVPE

Detected Parity Error. This bit is set whenever the PHB
detects a parity error, even if parity error checking is
disabled (see bit PERR in the PCI Command Register). It
is cleared by writing it to 1; writing a 0 has no effect.

INV

Invalidate Enable. If set, the PPC Master will issue a
transfer type code which specifies the current transaction
should cause an invalidate for each PPC transaction
originated by the corresponding PCI Slave. The transfer
type codes generated are shown in Table 2-5 on page 2-14.

GBL

Global Enable. If set, the PPC Master will assert the
GBL_ pin for each PPC transaction originated by the
corresponding PCI Slave.

RAEN

Read Ahead Enable. If set, read ahead is enabled for the
corresponding PCI Slave.

WPEN

Write Post Enable. If set, write posting is enabled for the
corresponding PCI Slave.

WEN

Write Enable. If set, the corresponding PCI Slave is
enabled for write transactions.

REN

Read Enable. If set, the corresponding PCI Slave is
enabled for read transactions.

RMFTx

Read Multiple FIFO Threshold. This field is used by the
PHB to determine a FIFO threshold at which to continue
prefetching data from local memory during PCI read
multiple transactions. This threshold applies to
subsequent prefetch reads since all initial prefetch reads
will be four cache lines. This field is only applicable if

transaction. Once the threshold is exceeded and the write
has begun, the PHB will continue to empty its FIFO until
it can no longer create a cache line. This field is only
applicable if write-posting has been enabled. The
encoding of this field is shown in the above table.

The PCI Slave Offset Registers (PSOFFx) contain offset information
associated with the mapping of PCI memory space to PPC memory space.
The field within the PSOFFx registers is defined as follows:
PSOFFx

PCI Slave Offset. This register contains a 16-bit offset
that is added to the upper 16 bits of the PCI address to
determine the PPC address used for transfers from PCI to
the PPC bus. This offset allows PPC resources to reside at
addresses that would not normally be visible from PCI.

CONFIG_ADDRESS Register
The description of the CONFIG_ADDRESS register is presented in three
perspectives: from the PCI bus, from the PPC bus in big-endian mode, and
from the PPC bus in little-endian mode. Note that the view from the PCI
bus is purely conceptual, since there is no way to access the
CONFIG_ADDRESS register from the PCI bus.

MPIC Registers
The following conventions are used in the Hawk register charts:
❏

R - Read Only field.

❏

R/W - Read/Write field.

❏

S - Writing a ONE to this field sets this field.

❏

C - Writing a ONE to this field clears this field.

MPIC Registers
The MPIC register map is shown in Table 2-19. The "Off" field is the
address offset from the base address of the MPIC registers in the PPC-IO
or PPC-Memory space. Note that this map does not depict linear
addressing. The PCI-SLAVE of the PHB has two decoders for generating
the MPIC select. These decoders will generate a select and acknowledge
all accesses which are in a reserved 256K byte range. If the index into that
256K block does not decode a valid MPIC register address, the logic will
return $00000000.
The registers are 8, 16, or 32 bits accessible.

RESET CONTROLLER. Writing a one to this bit forces
the controller logic to be reset. This bit is cleared
automatically when the reset sequence is complete. While
this bit is set, the values of all other register are undefined.

EINTT

External Interrupt Type. This read only bit indicates the
external interrupt type: serial or parallel mode. When this
bit is set MPIC is in serial mode for external interrupts 0
through 15. When this bit is cleared MPIC is in parallel
mode for external interrupts.

Registers

M

CASCADE MODE. Allows cascading of an external
8259 pair connected to the first interrupt source input pin
(0). In the pass through mode, interrupt source 0 is passed
directly through to the processor 0 INT pin. MPIC is
essentially disabled. In the mixed mode, 8259 interrupts
are delivered using the priority and distribution
mechanism of the MPIC. The Vector/Priority and
Destination registers for interrupt source 0 are used to
control the delivery mode for all 8259 generated interrupt
sources.

Mixed

Tie Mode. Writing a one to this register bit will cause a tie
in external interrupt processing to swap back and forth
between processor 0 and 1. The first tie in external
interrupt processing always goes to Processor 0 after a
reset. When this register bit is set to 0, a tie in external
interrupt processing will always go to processor 0 (Mode

This register is used to report the frequency (in Hz) of the clock source for
the global timers. Following reset, this register contains zero. The system
initialization code must initialize this register to one-eighth the MPIC
clock frequency. For the PHB implementation of the MPIC, a typical value
would be $7de290 (which is 66/8 MHz or 8.25 MHz).

Introduction
The SMC in the Hawk ASIC is equivalent to the former Falcon Pair
portion of a Falcon/Raven chipset. The SMC has interfaces between the
PPC60x bus and SDRAM, ROM/Flash, and its Control and Status Register
sets (CSR). Note that the term SDRAM refers to Synchronous Dynamic
Random Access Memory and is used throughout this document.

Overview
This chapter provides a functional description and programming model for
the SMC portion of the Hawk. Most of the information for using the device
in a system, programming it in a system, and testing it, is contained here.

Bit Ordering Convention
All SMC bused signals are named using Big-Endian bit ordering (bit 0 is
the most significant bit), except for the RA signals, which use LittleEndian bit ordering (bit 0 is the least significant bit).

Functional Description
The following sections describe the logical function of the SMC. The SMC
has interfaces between the PowerPC bus and SDRAM, ROM/Flash, and its
Control and Status Register sets (CSR).

3

SDRAM Accesses
Four-beat Reads/Writes
The SMC performs best when doing bursting (4-beat accesses). This is
made possible by the burst nature of synchronous DRAMs. When the
PPC60x Master begins a burst read to SDRAM, the SMC starts the access
and when the access time is reached, the SDRAM provides all four beats
of data, one on each clock. Hence, the SMC can provide the four beats of
data with zero idle clocks between each beat.
Single-beat Reads/Writes
Because of start-up, addressing, and completion overhead, single-beat
accesses to and from the PPC60x bus do not achieve data rates as high as
do four-beat accesses. Single-beat writes are the slowest because they
require that the SMC perform a read cycle then a write cycle to the
SDRAM in order to complete. Fortunately, in most PPC60x systems,
single-beat accesses can be held to a minimum, especially with data cache
and copyback modes in place.
Address Pipelining
The SMC takes advantage of the fact that PPC60x processors can do
address pipelining. Many times while a data cycle is finishing, the PPC60x
processor begins a new address cycle. The SMC can begin the next
SDRAM access earlier when this happens, thus increasing throughput.

3-6

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

Page Holding
Further savings comes when the new address is close enough to a previous
one that it falls within an open page in the SDRAM array. When this
happens, the SMC can transfer the data for the next cycle without having
to wait to activate a new page in SDRAM. In the SMC this feature is
referred to as page holding.
SDRAM Speeds
The SDRAM that the Hawk ASIC controls use the 60x clock. The SMC
can be configured to operate at several different 60x clock frequencies
using SDRAMs that have various speed characteristics. The bits that
control this configuration are located in the SDRAM Speed Attributes
Register, which is described in the Register portion of this section. Refer
to Table 3-1 for some specific timing numbers.

SDRAM control signals.

Functional Description

SDRAM Organization
The SDRAM is organized as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, or 8 blocks, 72 bits wide
with 64 of the bits being normal data and the other 8 being checkbits. The
72 bits of SDRAM for each block can be made up of x4, x8, or x16
components or of 72-bit DIMMs that are made up of x4 or x8 components.
The 72-bit, unbuffered DIMMs can be used as long as AC timing is met
and they use the components listed. All components must be organized
with 4 internal banks.

PPC60x Bus Interface
The SMC has a PowerPC slave interface only. It has no PowerPC master
interface. The slave interface is the mechanism for all accesses to
SDRAM, ROM/Flash, and the internal and external register sets.
Responding to Address Transfers
When the SMC detects an address transfer that it is to respond to, it asserts
AACK_ immediately if there is no uncompleted PPC60x bus data transfer
in process. If there is one in process, then the SMC waits and asserts
AACK_ coincident with the uncompleted data transfer’s last data beat if
the SMC is the slave for the previous data. If it is not, it holds off AACK_
until the CLK after the previous data transfer’s last data beat.
Completing Data Transfers
If an address transfer to the SMC will have an associated data transfer, the
SMC begins a read or write cycle to the accessed entity
(SDRAM/ROM/Flash/Internal or External Register) as soon as the entity
is free. If the data transfer will be a read, the SMC begins providing data
to the PPC60x bus as soon as the entity has data ready and the PPC60x data
bus is granted. If the data transfer will be a write, the SMC begins latching
data from the PowerPC data bus as soon as any previously latched data is
no longer needed and the PPC60x data bus is available.

System Memory Controller (SMC)

PPC60x Data Parity
The Hawk has 8 DP pins for generating and checking PPC60x data bus
parity.

3

During read cycles that access the SMC, the Hawk generates the correct
value on DP0-DP7 so that each data byte lane along with its corresponding
DP signal has odd parity. This can be changed on a lane basis to even parity
by software bits that can force the generation of wrong (even) parity.
During write cycles to the SMC, the SMC checks each of the eight PPC60x
data byte lanes and its corresponding DP signal for odd parity. If any of the
eight lanes has even parity, the SMC logs the error in the CSR and can
generate a machine check if so enabled.
While normal (default) operation is for the SMC to check data parity only
on writes to it, it can be programmed to check data parity on all reads or
writes to any device on the PPC bus.
Refer to the Data Parity Error Log Register section further on in this
document for additional control register details.
PPC60x Address Parity
The Hawk has four AP pins for generating and checking PPC60x address
bus parity.
During any address transfer cycle on the PPC60x, the SMC checks each of
the four 8-bit PPC60x address lanes and its corresponding AP signal for
odd parity. If any of the four lanes has even parity, the SMC logs the error
in the CSR and can generate a machine check if so enabled.
Note that the SMC does not generate address parity because it is not a
PPC60x address master.
Refer to the Address Parity Error Log Register section further on in this
document for additional control register details.

Functional Description

Cache Coherency
The SMC supports cache coherency to SDRAM only. It does this by
monitoring the ARTRY_ control signal on the PPC60x bus and behaving
appropriately when it is asserted. When ARTRY_ is asserted, if the access
is a SDRAM read, the SMC does not source the data for that access. If the
access is a SDRAM write, the SMC does not write the data for that access.
Depending upon when the retry occurs, the SMC may cycle the SDRAM
even though the data transfer does not happen.
Cache Coherency Restrictions
The PPC60x GBL_ signal must not be asserted in the CSR areas.
L2 Cache Support
The SMC provides support for a look-aside L2 cache (only at 66.67 MHz)
by implementing a hold-off input, L2CLM_. On cycles that select the
SMC, the SMC samples L2CLM_ on the second rising edge of the CLK
input after the assertion of TS_. If L2CLM_ is high, the SMC responds
normally to the cycle. If it is low, the SMC ignores the cycle.

SDRAM ECC
The SMC performs single-bit error correction and double-bit error
detection for SDRAM across 64 bits of data using 8 check bits. No
checking is provided for ROM/Flash.
Cycle Types
To support ECC, the SMC always deals with SDRAM using full width
(72-bit) accesses. When the PPC60x bus master requests any size read of
SDRAM, the SMC reads the full width at least once. When the PPC60x
bus master requests a four-beat write to SDRAM, the SMC writes all 72
bits four times. When the PPC60x bus master requests a single-beat write
to SDRAM, the SMC performs a full width read cycle to SDRAM, merges
in the appropriate PPC60x bus write data, and writes full width back to
SDRAM.

System Memory Controller (SMC)

Error Reporting
The SMC checks data from the SDRAM during single- and four-beat reads,
during single-beat writes, and during scrubs. Table 3-2 shows the actions it
takes for different errors during these accesses 60x.

3

Note that the SMC does not assert TEA_ on double-bit errors. In fact, the
SMC does not have a TEA_ signal pin and it assumes that the system does
not implement TEA_. The SMC can, however, assert machine check
(MCHK0_) on double-bit error.

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

Notes 1. No opportunity for error since no read of SDRAM occurs
during a four-beat write.
2. The SMC asserts Hawk’s internal error interrupt output upon
detecting an interrupt-qualified error condition. The potential
sources of Hawk’s internal error interrupt assertion are single-bit
error, multiple-bit error, and single-bit error counter overflow.
Error Logging
ECC error logging is facilitated by the SMC because of its internal latches.
When an error (single- or double-bit) occurs, the SMC records the address
and syndrome bits associated with the data in error. Once the error logger
has logged an error, it does not log any more until the elog control /status
bit has been cleared by software, unless the currently logged error is
single-bit and a new, double-bit error is encountered. The logging of errors
that occur during scrub can be enabled/disabled in software. Refer to the
Error Logger Register section in this chapter for more information.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

System Memory Controller (SMC)

ROM/Flash Interface
The SMC provides the interface for two blocks of ROM/Flash. Each block
provides addressing and control for up to 64MB. Note that no ECC error
checking is provided for the ROM/Flash.

3

The ROM/Flash interface allows each block to be individually configured
by jumpers and/or by software as follows:
1. Access for each block is controlled by three software programmable
control register bits: an overall enable, a write enable, and a reset
vector enable. The overall enable controls normal read accesses.
The write enable is used to program Flash devices. The reset vector
enable controls whether the block is also enabled at $FFF00000 $FFFFFFFF. The overall enable and write enable bits are always
cleared at reset. The reset vector enable bit is cleared or set at reset
depending on external jumper configuration. This allows the board
designer to use external jumpers to enable/disable Block A/B
ROM/Flash as the source of reset vectors.
2. The base address for each block is software programmable. At reset,
Block A’s base address is $FF000000, if Bank A is less than or
equal to 8MB; otherwise, it is 0xF4000000. Block B’s base address
is $FF800000.
As noted above, in addition to appearing at the programmed base
address, the first 1MB of Block A/B also appears at $FFF00000$FFFFFFFF if the reset vector enable bit is set.
3. The assumed size for each block is software programmable. It is
initialized to its smallest setting at reset.
4. The access time for each block is software programmable.
5. The assumed width for Block A/B is determined by an external
jumper at reset time. It also is available as a status bit and cannot be
changed by software.

3-14

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Functional Description

When the width status bit is cleared, the block’s ROM /Flash is
considered to be 16 bits wide, where each half of the SMC interfaces
to 8 bits. In this mode, the following rules are enforced:
a. only single-byte writes are allowed (all other sizes are ignored),
and
b. all reads are allowed (multiple accesses are performed to the
ROM/Flash devices when the read is for greater than one byte).
When the width status bit is set, the block’s ROM/Flash is
considered to be 64 bits wide, where each half of the SMC interfaces
with 32 bits. In this mode, the following rules are enforced:
a. only aligned, 4-byte writes should be attempted (all other sizes
are ignored), and
b. all reads are allowed (multiple accesses to the ROM/Flash
device are performed for burst reads).
More information about ROM/Flash is found in the following sections in
this chapter.
In order to place code correctly in the ROM/Flash devices, address
mapping information is required. Table 3-3 shows how PPC60x addresses
map to the ROM/Flash addresses when ROM/Flash is 16 bits wide. Table
3-4 shows how they map when Flash is 64 bits wide.

System Memory Controller (SMC)

I2C Interface
The ASIC has an I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) two-wire serial interface
bus: Serial Clock Line (SCL) and Serial Data Line (SDA). This interface
has master-only capability and may be used to communicate the
configuration information to a slave I2C device such as serial EEPROM.
The I2C interface is compatible with these devices, and the inclusion of a
serial EEPROM in the memory subsystem may be desirable. The
EEPROM could maintain the configuration information related to the
memory subsystem even when the power is removed from the system.
Each slave device connected to the I2C bus is software addressable by a
unique address. The number of interfaces connected to the I2C bus is solely
dependent on the bus capacitance limit of 400pF.

3

For I2C bus programming, the ASIC is the only master on the bus and the
serial EEPROM devices are all slaves. The I2C bus supports 7-bit
addressing mode and transmits data one byte at a time in a serial fashion
with the most significant bit (MSB) being sent out first. Five registers are
required to perform the I2C bus data transfer operations. These are the I2C
Clock Prescaler Register, I2C Control Register, I2C Status Register, I2C
Transmitter Data Register, and I2C Receiver Data Register.
The I2C SDA is an open-drain bi-directional line on which data can be
transferred at a rate up to 100 Kbits/s in the standard mode, or up to 400
kbits/s in the fast mode. The I2C serial clock (SCL) is programmable via
I2_PRESCALE_VAL bits in the I2C Clock Prescaler Register. The I2C
clock frequency is determined by the following formula:
I2C CLOCK = SYSTEM CLOCK / (I2_PRESCALE_VAL+1) / 2
The I2C bus has the ability to perform byte write, page write, current
address read, random read, and sequential read operations.

Functional Description

I2C Byte Write
The I2C Status Register contains the i2_cmplt bit which is used to indicate
if the I2C master controller is ready to perform an operation. Therefore, the
first step in the programming sequence should be to test the i2_cmplt bit
for the operation-complete status. The next step is to initiate a start
sequence by first setting the i2 start and i2 enbl bits in the I2C Control
Register and then writing the device address (bits 7-1) and write bit (bit
0=0) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register. The i2_cmplt bit will be
automatically clear with the write cycle to the I2C Transmitter Data
Register. The I2C Status Register must now be polled to test the i2_cmplt
and i2_ackin bits. The i2_cmplt bit becomes set when the device address
and write bit have been transmitted, and the i2_ackin bit provides status as
to whether or not a slave device acknowledged the device address. With
the successful transmission of the device address, the word address will be
loaded into the I2C Transmitter Data Register to be transmitted to the slave
device. Again, i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits must be tested for proper
response. After the word address is successfully transmitted, the next data
loaded into the I2C Transmitter Data Register will be transferred to the
address location selected previously within the slave device. After
i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits have been tested for proper response, a stop
sequence must be transmitted to the slave device by first setting the i2 stop
and i2enbl bits in the I2C Control Register and then writing a dummy data
(data=don’t care) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register. The I2C Status
Register must now be polled to test i2_cmplt bit for the operation-complete
status. The stop sequence will initiate a programming cycle for the serial
EEPROM and also relinquish the ASIC master’s possession of the I2C bus.
Figure 3-5 shows the suggested software flow diagram for programming
the I2C byte write operation.

I2C Random Read
The I2C random read begins in the same manner as the I2C byte write. The
first step in the programming sequence should be to test the i2_cmplt bit
for the operation-complete status. The next step is to initiate a start
sequence by first setting the i2_start and i2_enbl bits in the I2C Control
Register and then writing the device address (bits 7-1) and write bit (bit
0=0) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register. The i2_cmplt bit will be

Register. The I2C Status Register must now be polled to test the i2_cmplt
and i2_ackin bits. The i2_cmplt bit becomes set when the device address
and write bit have been transmitted, and the i2_ackin bit provides status as
to whether or not a slave device acknowledged the device address. With
the successful transmission of the device address, the word address will be
loaded into the I2C Transmitter Data Register to be transmitted to the slave
device. Again, i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits must be tested for proper
response. At this point, the slave device is still in a write mode. Therefore,
another start sequence must be sent to the slave to change the mode to read
by first setting the i2_start and i2_enbl bits in the I2C Control Register and
then writing the device address (bits 7-1) and read bit (bit 0=1) to the I2C
Transmitter Data Register. After i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits have been
tested for proper response, the I2C master controller writes a dummy value
(data=don’t care) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register.This causes the I2C
master controller to initiate a read transmission from the slave device.
Again, i2_cmplt bit must be tested for proper response. After the I2C
master controller has received a byte of data (indicated by i2_datin=1 in the
I2C Status Register), the system software may then read the data by polling
the I2C Receiver Data Register. The I2C master controller does not
acknowledge the read data for a single byte transmission on the I2C bus,
but must complete the transmission by sending a stop sequence to the slave
device. This can be accomplished by first setting the i2_stop and i2_enbl
bits in the I2C Control Register and then writing a dummy data (data=don’t
care) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register. The I2C Status Register must
now be polled to test i2_cmplt bit for the operation-complete status. The
stop sequence will relinquish the ASIC master’s possession of the I2C bus.

I2C Current Address Read
The I2C slave device should maintain the last address accessed during the
last I2C read or write operation, incremented by one. The first step in the
programming sequence should be to test the i2_cmplt bit for the operationcomplete status. The next step is to initiate a start sequence by first setting
the i2_start and i2_enbl bits in the I2C Control Register and then writing
the device address (bits 7-1) and read bit (bit 0=1) to the I2C Transmitter

I2C Page Write
The I2C page write is initiated the same as the I2C byte write, but instead
of sending a stop sequence after the first data word, the I2C master
controller will transmit more data words before a stop sequence is
generated. The first step in the programming sequence should be to test the
i2_cmplt bit for the operation-complete status. The next step is to initiate a
start sequence by first setting the i2_start and i2_enbl bits in the I2C
Control Register and then writing the device address (bits 7-1) and write
bit (bit 0=0) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register. The i2_cmplt bit will be
automatically clear with the write cycle to the I2C Transmitter Data
Register. The I2C Status Register must now be polled to test the i2_cmplt
and i2_ackin bits. The i2_cmplt bit becomes set when the device address
and write bit have been transmitted, and the i2_ackin bit provides status as
to whether or not a slave device acknowledged the device address. With
the successful transmission of the device address, the initial word address
will be loaded into the I2C Transmitter Data Register to be transmitted to
the slave device. Again, i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits must be tested for
proper response. After the initial word address is successfully transmitted,
the first data word loaded into the I2C Transmitter Data Register will be
transferred to the initial address location of the slave device. After
i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits have been tested for proper response, the next
data word loaded into the I2C Transmitter Data Register will be transferred
to the next address location of the slave device, and so on, until the block
transfer is complete. A stop sequence then must be transmitted to the slave
device by first setting the i2_stop and i2_enbl bits in the I2C Control
Register and then writing a dummy data (data=don’t care) to the I2C
Transmitter Data Register. The I2C Status Register must now be polled to
test i2_cmplt bit for the operation-complete status. The stop sequence will
initiate a programming cycle for the serial EEPROM and also relinquish

The I2C sequential read can be initiated by either an I2C random read

The first step in the programming sequence of an I C random read
initiation is to test the i2_cmplt bit for the operation-complete status. The
next step is to initiate a start sequence by first setting the i2_start and
i2_enbl bits in the I2C Control Register and then writing the device address
(bits 7-1) and write bit (bit 0=0) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register. The
i2_cmplt bit is automatically cleared with the write cycle to the I2C
Transmitter Data Register.
The I2C Status Register must now be polled to test the i2_cmplt and
i2_ackin bits. The i2_cmplt bit becomes set when the device address and
write bit are transmitted, and the i2_ackin bit provides status as to whether
or not a slave device acknowledged the device address. With the successful
transmission of the device address, the initial word address is loaded into
the I2C Transmitter Data Register to be transmitted to the slave device.
Again, i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits must be tested for proper response.
At this point, the slave device is still in a write mode. Therefore, another
start sequence must be sent to the slave to change the mode to read by first
setting the i2_start, i2_ackout, and i2_enbl bits in the I2C Control Register
and then writing the device address (bits 7-1) and read bit (bit 0=1) to the
I2C Transmitter Data Register. After i2_cmplt and i2_ackin bits are tested
for proper response, the I2C master controller writes a dummy value
(data=don’t care) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register.This causes the I2C
master controller to initiate a read transmission from the slave device.
After the I2C master controller has received a byte of data (indicated by
i2_datin=1 in the I2C Status Register) and the i2_cmplt bit has also been
tested for proper status, the I2C master controller responds with an
acknowledge and the system software may then read the data by polling
the I2C Receiver Data Register.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

System Memory Controller (SMC)

As long as the slave device receives an acknowledge, it will continue to
increment the word address and serially clock out sequential data words.
The I2C sequential read operation is terminated when the I2C master
controller does not respond with an acknowledge. This can be
accomplished by setting only the i2_enbl bit in the I2C Control Register
before receiving the last data word. A stop sequence then must be
transmitted to the slave device by first setting the i2_stop and i2_enbl bits
in the I2C Control Register and then writing a dummy data (data=don’t
care) to the I2C Transmitter Data Register. The I2C Status Register must
now be polled to test i2_cmplt bit for the operation-complete status. The
stop sequence will relinquish the ASIC master’s possession of the I2C bus.

System Memory Controller (SMC)

Refresh/Scrub
The SMC performs refresh by doing a burst of 4 CAS-Before-RAS (CBR)
refresh cycles to each block of SDRAM once every 60 microseconds. It
performs scrubs by replacing every 128th refresh burst with a read cycle to
8 bytes in each block of SDRAM. If during the read cycle, the SMC detects
a single-bit error, it performs a write cycle back to SDRAM using
corrected data providing the SWEN control bit is set. It does not perform
the write if the SWEN bit is cleared. If the SMC detects a double-bit error,
it does not perform a write.

3

If so enabled, single- and double-bit scrub errors are logged and the
PPC60x bus master is notified via interrupt.

CSR Accesses
The SMC has a set of control and status registers (CSR) that allow software
to control certain functions and to monitor some status.

External Register Set
The SMC has an external register chip select pin which enables it to talk to
an external set of registers. This interface is like the ROM/Flash interface
but with less flexibility. It is intended for the system designer to be able to
implement general-purpose status/control signals with this external set.
Refer to the section on External Register Set, further on in this chapter, for
a description of this register set.
The SMC has a mode in which two of its pins become control register
outputs. When the SMC is to operate in this mode, the External Register
Set cannot be implemented. The two control bits appear in the range where
the External Register Set would have been had it been implemented.

Programming Model

Chip Configuration
Some configuration options in the Hawk must be configured at power-up
reset time before software performs any accesses to it. The Hawk obtains
this information by latching the value on some of the upper RD signals just
after the rising edge of the PURST_ signal pin. The recommended way to
control the RD signals during reset is to place pull-up or pull-down
resistors on the RD bus. If there is a set of buffers between the RD bus and
the ROM/Flash devices, it is best to put the pull-up/pull-down resistors on
the far side of the buffers so that loading will be kept to a minimum. The
Hawk’s SDRAM buffer control signals cause the buffers to drive toward
the Hawk during power-up reset.
Other configuration information is needed by software to properly
configure the Hawk’s control registers. This information can be obtained
from devices connected to the I2C bus.

Programming Model
CSR Architecture
The CSR (control and status register set) consists of the chip’s internal
register set and its external register set. The base address of the CSR is hard
coded to the address $FEF80000 (or $FEF90000 if the RD[5] pin is high
at reset). To remain backwards compatible with older Raven/Falcon
designs, Hawk offers two options:
RD[5]=0=>PHB is at 0xFEFF0000, SMC is at 0xFEF80000 (default)
RD[5]=1=>PHB is at 0xFEFE0000, SMC is at 0xFEF90000
Accesses to the CSR are performed on the upper 32 bits of the PPC60x data
bus. Unlike the internal register set, data for the external register set can be
writen and read on both the upper and lower halves of the PPC60x data bus.
CSR read accesses can have a size of 1, 2, 4, or 8 bytes with any alignment.
CSR write accesses are restricted to a size of 1 or 4 bytes and they must be
aligned.

tben en

tben_en controls the enable for the p1_tben and p0_tben
output signals. When tben_en is set, the I2clm_ input pin
becomes the p1_tben output pin and the ercs_output pin
becomes the p0_tben output pin. Also, the SMC does not
respond to accesses that fall within the external register
set address range except for the address $FEF88300.
When tben_en is cleared, the I2clm_ and ercs_ pins retain
their normal function and the SMC does respond to
external register set accesses.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

3-39

System Memory Controller (SMC)

Software should only set the tben_en bit when there is no
external L2 cache connected to the I2clm_ pin and when
there is no external register set.

3

REVID

The REVID bits are hard-wired to indicate the revision
level of the SMC. The value for the first revision is $01.

aonly_en

Normally, the SMC responds to address-only cycles only
if they fall within the address range of one of its enabled
map decoders. When the aonly_en bit is set, the SMC also
responds to address-only cycles that fall outside of the
range of its enabled map decoders provided they are not
acknowledged by some other slave within 8 clock periods.
aonly_en is read-only and reflects the level that was on
the RD4 pin at power-up reset time.

isa_hole

When it is set, isa_hole disables any of the SDRAM or
ROM/Flash blocks from responding to PowerPC accesses
in the range from $000A0000 to $000BFFFF. This has the
effect of creating a hole in the SDRAM memory map for
accesses to ISA. When isa_hole is cleared, there is no hole
created in the memory map.

pu_stat0-pu_stat3

3-40

pu_stat0, pu_stat1, pu_stat2, and pu_stat3 are readonly status bits that indicate the levels that were on the
RD13, RD14, RD15, and RD16 signal pins respectively at
power-up reset. They provide a means to pass information
to software using pull-up/pull-down resistors on the RD
bus or on a buffered RD bus.

Writes to this register must be enveloped by a period of time in which no
accesses to SDRAM occur. The requirements of the envelope are that all
SDRAM accesses must have completed before the write starts and none
should begin until after the write is done. A simple way to do this is to
perform at least two read accesses to this (or another register) before and
after the write.
Additionally, sometime during the envelope, before or after the write, all
of the SDRAMs’ open pages must be closed and the Hawk’s open page
tracker must be reset. The way to do this is to allow enough time for at least
one SDRAM refresh to occur by waiting for the 32-bit counter (see register
description further on in this chapter) to increment at least 100 times. The
wait period needs to happen during the envelope.
ram a/b/c/d en

ram a/b/c/d en enables 60x accesses to the corresponding
block of SDRAM when set, and disables them when
cleared.
Note that ram e/f/g/h en are located at $FEF800C0 (refer
to the section on SDRAM Enable and Size Register
(Blocks E, F, G, H) further on in this chapter for more
information.) They operate the same for blocks E-H as
these bits do for blocks A-D.

ram a/b/c/d siz0-3 These control bits define the size of their corresponding
block of SDRAM. Table 3-10 shows the block
configuration assumed by the SMC for each value of ram
siz0-ram siz3. Note that ram e/f/g/h size0-3 are located
at $FEF800C0. They operate identically for blocks E-H as
these bits do for blocks A-D.

RAM A/B/C/D BASE

These control bits define the base address for their block’s
SDRAM. RAM A/B/C/D BASE bits 0-7/8-15/16-23/2431 correspond to PPC60x address bits 0 - 7. For larger
SDRAM sizes, the lower significant bits of A/B/C/D
BASE are ignored. This means that the block’s base
address will always appear at an even multiple of its size.
Remember that bit 0 is MSB.
Note that RAM_E/F/G/H_BASE are located at
$FEF800C8 (refer to the section on SDRAM Base
Address Register (Blocks E/F/G/H). They operate the
same for blocks E-H as these bits do for blocks A-D.
Also note that the combination of RAM_X_BASE and
ram_x_siz should never be programmed such that
SDRAM responds at the same address as the CSR,
ROM/Flash, External Register Set, or any other slave on
the PowerPC bus.

These bits should be programmed with the hexadecimal
value of the operating CLOCK frequency in MHz (i.e.
$42 for 66 MHz). When these bits are programmed this
way, the chip’s prescale counter produces a 1 MHz
(approximate) output. The output of the chip prescale
counter is used by the refresher/scrubber and the 32-bit
counter. After power-up, this register is initialized to $64
(for 100 MHz). The formula is:
Counter_Output_Frequency = (Clock
Frequency)/CLK_FREQUENCY
For example, if the Clock Frequency is 100 MHz and
CLK_FREQUENCY is $64, then the counter output
frequency is 100 MHz/100 = 1 MHz.
When the CLK pin is operating slower than 100MHz,
software should program CLK_FREQUENCY to be at
least as slow as the CLK pin’s frequency as soon as
possible after power-up reset so that SDRAM refresh does
not get behind.
It is okay for the software then to take some time to “up”
CLK_FREQUENCY to the correct value. Refresh will
get behind only when the actual CLK pin’s frequency is
lower than the value programmed into
CLK_FREQUENCY.
(Note: Hawk 1 and 2 were designed to support SDRAMs
that require a refresh rate of 15.625 us (64 ms / 4096 rows
= 15.625 us). Some SDRAMs require a refresh rate of 7.8

3-44

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Programming Model

us (64 ms / 8192 rows = 7.8 us). In order for Hawk 1 or 2
to accommodate such SDRAM’s their
CLK_FREQUENCY must be programmed with the CLK
pin (bus clock) frequency divided by two. For example, if
the clock pin frequency is 100 MHz, the
CLK_FREQUENCY register should be programmed
with $32 (100 MHz divided by 2) rather than $64. The
same work-around can, but does not have to be used for
Hawk 3. Hawk 3 includes an additional control bit (drr)
that when set, removes the need for the work-around.
Refer to the following explanation of the drr bit.
Double Refresh Rate (Hawk 3 only) When drr is set,
Hawk3’s refresh rate doubles. When drr is cleared,
Hawk3’s refresh rate is normal and matches that of Hawk
1 and 2. Refer to the following examples of DRR and
CLK_FREQUENCY settings with the resulting refresh
rates:

refdis

When set, refdis causes the refresher and all of its
associated counters and state machines to be cleared and
maintained that way until refdis is removed (cleared). If a
refresh cycle is in process when refdis is updated by a
write to this register, the update does not take effect until
the refresh cycle has completed. This prevents the
generation of illegal cycles to the SDRAM when refdis is
updated.

rwcb

rwcb, when set, causes reads and writes to SDRAM from
the PPC60x bus to access check-bit data rather than
normal data. The data path used for reading and writing
check bits is D0-D7. Each 8-bit check-bit location
services 64 bits of normal data. Figure 3-10 shows the
relationship between normal data and check-bit data.

Figure 3-10. Read/Write Check-bit Data Paths
Note that if test software attempts to force a single-bit error to a location
using the rwcb function, the scrubber may correct the location before the
test software gets a chance to check for the single-bit error. This can be
avoided by disabling scrub writes. Also note that writing bad check-bits
can set the elog bit in the Error Logger Register. The writing of check-bits
causes the SMC to perform a read-modify-write to SDRAM. If the location
to which check-bits are being written has a single- or double-bit error, data
in the location may be altered by the write check-bits operation. To avoid
this, it is recommended that the derc bit also be set while the rwcb bit is
set. A possible sequence for performing read-write check-bits is as
follows:
1. Disable scrub writes by clearing the swen bit if it is set.
2. Make sure software is not using DRAM at this point, because while
rwcb is set, DRAM will not function as normal memory.
3. Set the derc and rwcb bits in the Data Control register.
4. Perform the desired read and/or write check-bit operations.

5. Clear the derc and rwcb bits in the Data Control register.
6. Perform the desired testing related to the location/locations that
have had their check-bits altered.

3

7. Enable scrub writes by setting the swen bit if it was set before.
derc

Setting derc to one alters SMC operation as follows:

1. During reads, data is presented to the PPC60x data bus uncorrected
from the SDRAM array.
2. During single-beat writes, data is written without correcting singlebit errors that may occur on the read portion of the read-modifywrite. Check-bits are generated for the data being written.
3. During single-beat writes, the write portion of the read-modifywrite happens regardless of whether there is a multiple-bit error
during the read portion. No correction of data is attempted. Checkbits are generated for the data being written.
4. During scrub cycles, if swen is set, a read-writes to SDRAM
happens with no attempt to correct data bits. Check-bits are
generated for the data being written.
derc is useful for initializing SDRAM after power-up and
for testing SDRAM, but it should be cleared during
normal system operation.

apien

When apien is set, the logging of a PPC60x address parity
error causes the int bit to be set if it is not already. When
the int bit is set, the Hawk’s internal error interrupt is
asserted.

error causes the int bit to be set if it is not already. When
the int bit is set, the Hawk’s internal error interrupt is

sien

When sien is set, the logging of a single-bit error causes
the int bit to be set if it is not already. When the int bit is
set, the Hawk’s internal error interrupt is asserted.

mien

When mien is set, the logging of a non-correctable error
causes the int bit to be set if it is not already. When the int
bit is set, the Hawk’s internal error interrupt is asserted.

int

int is set when one of the SMC’s interrupt conditions
occurs. It is cleared by reset or by software writing a one
to it. The Hawk’s internal error interrupt tracks int. When
int is set, Hawk’s internal error interrupt is asserted. When
int is cleared, Hawk’s internal error interrupt is negated.

mbe_me

When mbe_me is set, the detection of a multiple-bit error
during a PowerPC read or write to SDRAM causes the
SMC to pulse its machine check interrupt request pin
(MCHK0_) true. When mbe_me is cleared, the SMC
does not assert its MCHK0_ pin on multiple-bit errors.
The SMC never asserts its MCHK0_ pin in response to a
multiple-bit error detected during a scrub cycle.

!
Caution

The Hawk’s internal error interrupt and the MCHK0_ pin are the only nonpolled notification that a multiple-bit error has occurred. The SMC does
not assert TEA as a result of a multiple bit error. In fact, the SMC does not
have a TEA_ signal pin and it assumes that the system does not implement
TEA.

elog

When set, elog indicates that a single- or a multiple-bit
error has been logged by the SMC. If elog is set by a
multiple-bit error, then no more errors will be logged until
software clears it. If elog is set by a single-bit error, then
no more single-bit errors will be logged until software
clears it, however if elog is set by a single-bit error and a
multiple-bit error occurs, the multiple-bit error will be
logged and the single-bit error information overwritten.
elog can only be set by the logging of an error and cleared
by the writing of a one to itself or by power-up reset.

escb

escb indicates the entity that was accessing SDRAM at
the last logging of a single- or multiple-bit error by the
SMC. If escb is 1, it indicates that the scrubber was
accessing SDRAM. If escb is 0, it indicates that the
PPC60x bus master was accessing SDRAM.

esen

When set, esen allows errors that occur during scrubs to
be logged. When cleared, esen does not allow errors that
occur during scrubs to be logged.

embt

embt is set by the logging of a multiple-bit error. It is
cleared by the logging of a single-bit error. It is undefined
after power-up reset. The syndrome code is meaningless
if its embt bit is set.

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Programming Model

esbt

esbt is set by the logging of a single-bit error. It is cleared
by the logging of a multiple-bit error. When the SMC logs
a single-bit error, the syndrome code indicates which bit
was in error. Refer to the section on SDRAM ECC Codes.

ERR_SYNDROME ERR_SYNDROME reflects the syndrome value at the
last logging of an error. This eight-bit code indicates the
position of the data error. When all the bits are zero, there
was no error. Note that if the logged error was multiple-bit
then these bits are meaningless. Refer to the section on
SDRAM ECC Codes for a decoding of the syndromes.
esblk0,esblk1, esbik2 Together these three bits indicate which block of SDRAM
was being accessed when the SMC logged a scrub error.
esblk0,esblk1, esbik2 are 0,0,0 for Block A; 0,0,1 for
Block B; 0,1,0 for Block C; and 0,1,1 for Block D, etc.
scof

scof is set by the SBE COUNT register rolling over from
$FF to $00. It is cleared by software writing a 1 to it.

SBE COUNT SBE_COUNT keeps track of the number of single-bit
errors that have occurred since it was last cleared. It
counts up by one each time it detects a single-bit error
(independent of the state of the elog bit). The
SBE_COUNT is cleared by power-up reset and by
software writing all zeros to itself. When
SBE COUNT rolls over from $FF to $00, the SMC sets
the scof bit. The rolling over of SBE_COUNT pulses the
Hawk’s internal error interrupt low if the scien bit is set.

SCRUB_FREQUENCY

3-52

When set, swen allows the scrubber to perform write

Determines the rate of scrubbing by setting the roll-over
count for the scrub prescale counter. Each time the SMC
performs a refresh burst, the scrub prescale counter
increments by one. When the scrub prescale counter
reaches the value stored in this register, it clears and
resumes counting starting at 0.

Note that when this register is all 0’s, the scrub prescale
counter does not increment, disabling any scrubs from
occurring. Since SCRUB_FREQUENCY is cleared to
0’s at power-up reset, scrubbing is disabled until software
programs a non-zero value into it.

SCRUB ADDRESS These bits form the address counter used by the scrubber
for all blocks of SDRAM. The scrub address counter
increments by one each time a scrub to one location
completes to all of the blocks of SDRAM. When it
reaches all 1s, it rolls back over to all 0s and continues
counting. The SCRUB_ADDRESS counter is readable
and writable for test purposes.
Note that for each block, the most significant bits of
SCRUB ADDRESS COUNTER are meaningful only
when their SDRAM devices are large enough to require
them.

Writes to this register must be enveloped by a period of time in which no

envelope is to perform at least two accesses to this or another of the SMC’s
registers before and after the write.
ROM A BASE

These control bits define the base address for ROM/Flash
Block A. ROM A BASE bits 0-11 correspond to PPC60x
address bits 0 - 11 respectively. For larger ROM/Flash
sizes, the lower significant bits of ROM A BASE are
ignored. This means that the block’s base address will
always appear at an even multiple of its size. ROM A
BASE is initialized to $FF0 at power-up or local bus reset.
Note that in addition to the programmed address, the first
1Mbyte of Block A also appears at $FFF00000 $FFFFFFFF if the rom_a_rv bit is set and the rom_b_rv
bit is cleared.
Also note that the combination of ROM_A_BASE and

dpelog

dpelog is set when a parity error occurs on the PPC60x
data bus during a PPC60x data cycle whose parity the
SMC is qualified to check. It is cleared by writing a one to
it or by power-up reset.

dpe_tt0-4

dpe_tt is the value that was on the TT0-TT4 signals when
the dpelog bit was set.

DPE_DP

DPE_DP is the value that was on the DP0-DP7 signals
when the dpelog bit was set.

dpe_ckall

When dpe_ckall is set, the Hawk checks data parity on all
cycles in which TA_ is asserted. When dpe_ckall is
cleared, the Hawk checks data parity on cycles when TA_
is asserted only during writes to the Hawk.
Note that the Hawk does not check parity during cycles in
which there is a qualified ARTRY_ at the same time as the
TA_.

dpe_me

When dpe_me is set, the transition of the dpelog bit from
false to true causes the Hawk to pulse its machine check
interrupt request pin (MCHK0_) true. When dpe_me is
cleared, the Hawk does not assert its MCHK0_ pin based
on the dpelog bit.

GWDP

The GWDP0-GWDP7 bits are used to invert the value
that is driven onto DP0-DP7 respectively during reads to
the Hawk. This allows test software to generate wrong
(even) parity on selected byte lanes. For example, to
create a parity error on DH24-DH31 and DP3 during
Hawk reads, software should set GWDP3.

Writes to this register must be enveloped by a period of time in which no
accesses to SDRAM occur. The requirements of the envelope are that all
SDRAM accesses must have completed before the write starts and none
should begin until after the write is done. A simple way to do this is to
perform at least two read accesses to this or another register before and
after the write.
Additionally, sometime during the envelope, before or after the write, all
of the SDRAMs’ open pages must be closed and the Hawk’s open page
tracker reset. The way to do this is to allow enough time for at least one
SDRAM refresh to occur by waiting for the 32-bit Counter (see section
further on) to increment at least 100 times. The wait period needs to
happen during the envelope.

The SDRAM Speed Attributes Register should be programmed based on
the SDRAM device characteristics and the Hawk’s operating frequency to
ensure reliable operation.
In order for writes to this register to work properly they should be
separated from any SDRAM accesses by a refresh before the write and by
another refresh after the write. The refreshes serve two purposes: 1) they
make sure that all of the SDRAMs are idle ensuring that mode-register-set
operations for cl3 updates work properly, and 2) they make sure that no
SDRAM accesses happen during the write. A simple way to meet these
requirments is to use the following sequence:
1. Make sure all accesses to SDRAM are done.
2. Wait for the “32-Bit Counter” (refer to section further on) to
increment at least 100 times.
3. Perform the write/writes to this register (and other SMC registers if
desired).
4. Wait again for the “32-Bit Counter” to increment at least 100 times
before resuming accesses to SDRAM.

cl3

When cl3 is cleared, the SMC assumes that the SDRAM runs
with a CAS_ latency of 2. When cl3 is set, the SMC assumes that
it runs with a CAS_ latency of 3. Note that writing so as to
change cl3 from 1 to 0 or vice-versa causes the SMC to perform
a mode-register-set operation to the SDRAM array. The moderegister-set operation updates the SDRAM’s CAS latency to
match cl3.

trc0,1,2

Together trc0,1,2 determine the minimum number of clock
cycles that the SMC assumes the SDRAM requires to satisfy its
Trc parameter. These bits are encoded as follows:

When the system clock is a fractional frequency, such as
66.67 MHz, CTR32 will count at a fractional amount faster or
slower than 1 MHz, depending on the programming of the

EXTERNAL REGISTER SET The EXTERNAL REGISTER SET is user provided and
is external to the Hawk. It is enabled only when the

EXTERNAL REGISTER SET is disabled and the Hawk
does not respond in its range except for the tben register at
$FEF88300.
The tben register (which is internal to Hawk) responds

The Hawk’s EXTERNAL REGISTER SET interface is
similar to that for ROM/Flash Block A and B. In fact,
another name for the External Register Set is ROM/Flash
Block C. The differences between Blocks A/B and C are
that the following parameters are fixed rather than
programmable for Block C.

1. The device speed for Block C is fixed at 11 Clocks.
2. The width for Block C is fixed at 64 bits.
3. The address range for Block C is fixed at $FEF88000$FEF8FFF8 ($FEF98000-$FEF9FFF8 when Hawk is
configured for the alternate CSR base address).
4. Block C is never used for reset vectors.
5. Block C is always enabled unless the tben_en bit is set.
6. Writes to Block C cannot be disabled.

Note that when tben_en is high, L2CLM_ cannot be driven by
an external L2 cache controller and no External Register Set
devices can be controlled.

Software Considerations
This section contains information that will be useful in programming a
system that uses the Hawk.

Programming ROM/Flash Devices
Those who program devices to be controlled by the Hawk should make
note of the address mapping that is shown in Table 3-3 and in Table 3-4.
For example, when using 8-bit devices, the code will be split so that every
other 4-byte segment goes in each device.

Writing to the Control Registers
Software should not change control register bits that affect SDRAM
operation while SDRAM is being accessed. Because of pipelining,
software should always make sure that the two accesses before and after
the updating of critical bits are not SDRAM accesses.
A possible scenario for trouble would be to execute code out of SDRAM
while updating the critical SDRAM control register bits. The preferred
method is to be executing code out of ROM/Flash and avoiding SDRAM
accesses while updating these bits.

http://www.motorola.com/computer/literature

System Memory Controller (SMC)

Some registers have additional requirements for writing. For more
information refer to the register sections in this chapter titled SDRAM
Enable and Size Register (Blocks A,B,C,D), SDRAM Base Address
Register (Blocks A/B/C/D), SDRAM Enable and Size Register (Blocks
E,F,G,H), SDRAM Base Address Register (Blocks E/F/G/H), and SDRAM
Speed Attributes Register.

3

Since software has no way of controlling refresh/scrub accesses to
SDRAM, the hardware is designed so that updating control bits
coincidentally with refreshes is not a problem.
As with SDRAM control bits, software should not change control bits that
affect ROM/Flash while the affected Block is being accessed. This
generally means that the ROM/Flash size, base address, enable, write
enable, etc. are changed only while executing initially in the reset vector
area ($FFF00000 - $FFFFFFFF).

Initializing SDRAM Related Control Registers
In order to establish proper SDRAM operation, software must configure
control register bits in Hawk that affect each SDRAM block’s speed, size,
base address, and enable. The SDRAM speed attributes are the same for all
blocks and are controlled by one 32-bit register. The size, base address and
enable can be different for each block and are controlled in individual 8bit registers.
SDRAM Speed Attributes
The SDRAM speed attributes come up from power-up reset initialized to
the slowest settings that Hawk is capable of. This allows SDRAM accesses
to be performed before the SDRAM speed attributes are known.
An example of a need for this is when software requires some working
memory that it can use while gathering and evaluating SDRAM device
data from serial EEPROM’s. Once software knows the SDRAM speed
parameters for all blocks, it should discontinue accessing SDRAM for at
least one refresh period before and after it programs the SDRAM speed
attribute bits.

3-76

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Software Considerations

SDRAM Size
The SDRAM size control bits come up from power-up reset cleared to
zero. Once software has determined the correct size for an SDRAM block,
it should set the block’s size bits to match. The value programmed into the
size bits tells the Hawk how big the block is (for map decoding), and how
to translate that block’s 60x addresses to SDRAM addresses.
Programming a block’s size to non-zero also allows it to participate in
scrubbing if scrubbing is enabled.
After software programs the size bits, it should wait for a refresh to happen
before beginning to access SDRAM.
I2C EEPROMs
Most of the information needed to program the SDRAM speed attributes
and size is provided by EEPROM devices that are connected to Hawk’s
I2C bus. The EEPROM devices contain data in a specific format called
Serial Presence Detect (SPD).
SDRAM Base Address and Enable
Each block needs to be programmed for a unique base address that is an
even multiple of its size. Once a block’s speed attributes, size, and base
address have been programmed and time for at least one refresh has
passed, it can be enabled.

SDRAM Control Registers Initialization Example
The following is a possible sequence for initializing SDRAM control
registers:

3

1. Get a small piece of SDRAM for software to use for this routine
(optional).
This routine assumes that SDRAM related control bits are still at the
power-up-reset default settings. We will use a small enough piece of
SDRAM that the address signals that are affected by SDRAM size
will not matter.
For each SDRAM block:
a. Set the block’s base address to some even multiple of 32MB
(refer to the section titled SDRAM Base Address Register
(Blocks A/B/C/D) for more information.)
b. Set the block’s size to 4Mx16 and enable it (refer to the section
titled SDRAM Enable and Size Register (Blocks A,B,C,D) for
more information.)
c. Test the first 1MB of the block.
d. If the test fails, disable the block, clear its size to 0MB, disable it
and then repeat steps 1 through 5 with the next block. If the test
passes, go ahead and use the first 1M of the block.
2. Using the I2C bus, determine which memory blocks are present.
Using the addressing scheme established by the board designer,
probe for SPD’s to determine which blocks of SDRAM are present.
SPD byte 0 could be used to determine SPD presence. SPD Byte 5
indicates the number of SDRAM blocks that belong to an SPD.
3. Obtain the CAS latency information for all blocks that are present
to determine whether to set or to clear the cl3 bit.
For each SDRAM block that is present:
a. Check SPD byte 18 to determine which CAS latencies are
supported.
b. If a CAS latency of 2 is supported, then go to Step 3. Otherwise,
a CAS latency of 3 is all that is supported for this block.

3-78

Computer Group Literature Center Web Site

Software Considerations

c. If a CAS latency of 2 is supported, check SPD byte 23 to
determine the CAS_latency _2 cycle time. If the CAS_latency_2
cycle time is less than or equal to the period of the system clock
then this block can operate with a CAS latency of 2. Otherwise
a CAS latency of 3 is all that is supported for this block.
If any block does not support a CAS latency of 2, then cl3 is to
be set. If all of the blocks support a CAS latency of 2, then the
cl3 bit is to be cleared.
Do not update the cl3 bit at this point. You will use the
information from this step later.
4. Determine the values to use for tras, trp, trcd, and trc
The values to use for tras, trp, trcd and trc can be obtained from
the SPD. The tras bits determine the minimum tRAS time produced
by the Hawk. The trp bit determines the minimum tRP time
produced by the Hawk, etc. Each set of bits should accommodate
the slowest block of SDRAM. The SPD parameters are specified in
nanoseconds and have to be converted to 60x clock periods for the
Hawk.
Use the following table to convert SPD bytes 27, 29 and 30 to the
correct values for tras, trp, trcd and trc.
Do not actually update these bits in the Hawk at this time. You will
use the information from this step later.

Notes 1. Use tRAS from the SDRAM block that has the slowest
tRAS.
2. tRAS_CLK is tRAS expressed in CLK periods.
3. Use tRP from the SDRAM block that has the slowest tRP.
4. tRP_CLK is tRP expressed in CLK periods.
5. Use tRCD from the SDRAM block that has the slowest
tRCD.
6. tRCD_CLK is tRCD expressed in CLK periods.
7. Use tRC from the SDRAM block that has the slowest tRC.
8. tRC_CLK is tRC expressed in CLK periods.
9. Remember that CLK is the Hawk’s 60x clock input pin.
5. Determine the size for each block that is present.
(Do not actually program the Hawk’s size bits at this point. You use
this information to program them later.)
Each block’s size can be determined using the following algorithm:
a. Calculate the number of rows in each device using SPD byte 3.
If the number of rows is ROWS and the value in SPD byte 3 is R,
then ROWS=2R.
b. Calculate the number of columns in each device using SPD byte
4. If the number of columns is COLUMNS and the value in SPD
byte 4 is C, then
COLUMNS=2C.
c. Calculate the total number of addresses within each device. If the
total number of addresses in a device is A, then
A=ROWS X COLUMNS
d. Calculate the total number of locations in the block using the
results of step 3 and SPD byte 17. If the total number of locations
in the block is L, and the value in byte 17 is 4, then
L=Ax4
or
L = 2 R x 2C x 4
(Note that the Hawk only works if byte 17 is 4).
e. Obtain the primary device width from SPD byte 13.
f. Determine the size bits based on the results of steps d and e using
the table on the next page.

Notes 1. Total Number of block Locations (L) is 2R x 2C x 4 where
R is the value in SPD byte 3 and C is the value in SPD byte 4.
2. Primary Device Width is from SPD byte 13.
3. Block Size is the total number of block locations (L) x 8
bytes.
4. ram_x_siz refers to ram_a_siz, ram_b_siz, ram_c_siz, etc.
(Refer to the sections titled SDRAM Enable and Size Register
(Blocks A,B,C,D) and SDRAM Enable and Size Register (Blocks
E,F,G,H) for more information.
6. Make sure the software is no longer using SDRAM, and disable the
block that was being used.
7. Wait for at least one SDRAM refresh to complete. A simple way to
do this is to wait for the 32-bit counter to increment at least 100
times. (Refer to the section titled “32-Bit Counter” for more
information). Note that the refdis control bit must not be set in the
ECC Control Register.

3-82

Software Considerations

8. Now that at least one refresh has occurred since SDRAM was last
accessed, it is okay to write to the SDRAM control registers.
a. Program the SDRAM Speed Attributes Register using the
information obtained in steps 3 and 4 and the fact that the
swr_dp and tdp bits should be set to 1’s.

3

b. Program the SDRAM Base Address Register (Blocks A/B/C/D)
and the SDRAM Base Address Register (Blocks E/F/G/H). Each
block’s base address should be programmed so that it is an even
multiple of its size. (The size information was obtained in step
5). If the isa_hole bit is to be set this may be a good time to do
that also. Refer to the Revision ID/General Control Register
section for more information.
c. Program the SDRAM Enable and Size Register (Blocks
A,B,C,D) and the SDRAM Enable and Size Register (Blocks
E,F,G,H). Use the information from step 5 for this. Only those
blocks that exist should be enabled. Also, only those that exist
should be programmed with a non-zero size.
9. Wait for at least one SDRAM refresh to complete. A simple way to
do this is to wait for the 32-bit counter to increment at least 100
times (refer to the section on the 32-Bit Counter for more
information). Note that the refdis control bit must not be set in the
ECC Control Register.
10. SDRAM is now ready to use.

Optional Method for Sizing SDRAM
Generally SDRAM block sizes can be determined by using SPD
information (refer to the previous section on SDRAM Control Registers
Initialization example). Another method for accomplishing this is as
follows:

3

1. Initialize the SMC’s control register bits to a known state.
a. Clear the isa_hole bit (refer to the section titled Vendor/Device
Register for more information.)
b. Make sure the CLK Frequency Register matches the operating
frequency.
c. Wait for at least one SDRAM refresh to complete. A simple way
to do this is to wait for the 32-bit counter to increment at least
100 times (refer to the section on 32-Bit Counter for more
information). Note that the refdis control bit must not be set in
the ECC Control Register.
d. Make sure that the SDRAM Speed Attributes Register contains
its power-up reset values. If not, make sure that the values match
the actual characteristics of the SDRAM being used.
e. Make sure the following bits are initialized as follows:
refdis = 0
rwcb = 0
derc = 1
scien = 0
dpien = 0
sien = 0
mien = 0
mbe_me = 0
SCRUB_FREQUENCY = $00
(Refer to the ECC Control Register section and the
Scrub/Refresh Register section for more information).
f. Make sure that ROM/Flash banks A and B are not enabled to
respond in the range $00000000 - $20000000. (Refer to the
section on ROM A Base/Size Register and ROM B Base/Size
Register for more information.)
g. Make sure that no other devices are set up to respond in the range
$00000000 - $20000000.

3-84

2. For each of the Blocks A through H:
a. Set the block’s base address to $00000000. Refer to the sections
titled SDRAM Base Address Register (Blocks A/B/C/D) and
SDRAM Enable and Size Register (Blocks E,F,G,H).
b. Enable the block and make sure that the other seven blocks are
disabled. Refer to the same sections as referenced in the previous
step.
c. Set the block’s size control bits. Start with the largest possible
(512MB). Refer to the same sections as referenced in the
previous step.
d. Wait for at least one SDRAM refresh to complete.
e. Write a unique 64-bit data pattern to each one of a specified list
of addresses. The list of addresses to be written varies depending
on the size that is currently being checked. The address lists are
shown in the table below.
f. Read back all of the addresses that have been written.
If all of the addresses still contain exactly what was written, then
the block’s size has been found. It is the size for which it is
currently programmed.
If any of the addresses do not contain exactly what was written,
then the block’s memory size is less than that for which it is
programmed. Sizing needs to continue for this block by
programming its control bits to the next smaller size, waiting for
at least one refresh to complete, and repeating steps e and f.
g. If no match is found for any size then the block is unpopulated
and has a size of 0MB. Its size should be programmed to 0.

Notes 1. 16Mx8 and 16Mx4 are the same. If the real size is either
one of these, this algorithm will program for 16Mx8
regardless of whether the SDRAM size is 16Mx8 or 16Mx4.
This is not a problem because the Hawk behaves identically
when programmed for either size.
2. 8Mx16 and 8Mx8 are the same. The same idea that applies
to 16Mx8 and 16Mx4 applies to them.
3. This needed only to check for non-zero size.
3. Wait enough time to allow at least 1 SDRAM refresh to occur before
beginning any SDRAM accesses.

Introduction
This chapter contains details of several programming functions associated
with the Hawk ASIC chip.

PCI Arbitration
PCI arbitration must be provided by the host board.

Hawk MPIC External Interrupts
The MVME5100 Hawk MPIC is fully compliant with the industry
standard Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller Specification. Following a
power-up reset, the MPIC is configured to operate in the parallel interrupt
delivery mode on the MVME5100 series:

Notes
1. Interrupting device is addressed from Hawk External Register Bus.
2. The mapping of interrupt sources from the VMEbus and Universe
internal interrupt sources are programmable via the Local Interrupt
Map 0 Register and the Local Interrupt Map 1 Register in the
Universe ASIC.
3. This interrupt is provided for software compatibility with the
MVME2700.
4. This is the logical OR of the two UART’s.
5. This is the wired OR of the two watch dog interrupts.
6. The DS1621 Digital Thermometer and Thermostat provides 9-bit
temperature readings that indicate the temperature of the device.
The thermal alarm output, TOUT, is active when the temperature of
the device exceeds a user defined temperature TH.

PCI Arbitration

8259 Interrupts
There are 15 interrupt requests supported by the Peripheral Bus Controller
(PBC), which is only available if an IPMC761 or IPMC712 is installed.
These 15 interrupts are ISA-type interrupts that are functionally equivalent
to two 82C59 interrupt controllers. Except for IRQ0, IRQ1, IRQ2,
IRQ8_, and IRQ13, each of the interrupt lines can be configured for either
edge-sensitive mode or level-sensitive mode by programming the
appropriate ELCR registers in the PBC.
There is also support for four PCI interrupts, PIRQA_ through PIRQD_.
The PBC has four PIRQ route control registers to allow each of the PCI
interrupt lines to be routed to any of twelve ISA interrupt lines (IRQ0,
IRQ2, IRQ8_, and IRQ13 are reserved for ISA system interrupts). These
active low inputs are used for some of the on-board PCI devices.
Since PCI interrupts are defined as level-sensitive, software must program
the selected IRQ(s) for level-sensitive mode. The assignments of the ISA
interrupts supported by the PBC as shown in the following table:

Exceptions

Exceptions
Sources of Reset
There are five potential reset sources on the MVME5100 series. They are
as follows:
1. Power-On Reset
2. RESET Switch
3. Watchdog Timer Reset
4. Software generated Module Reset using MODRST Bit Register.
5. Reset generated from system bus
Each source of reset will result in a reset of the processor, Hawk ASIC, and
all other on-board logic. The PMC RESETOUT_L pin will also be
activated by all reset sources except for the PMC PCI RST# input.

Soft Reset
Software can assert the SRESET# pin of the processor by appropriately
programming the P0 bit in the Processor Init Register of the Hawk MPIC.

CPU Reset
The Hawk SRST1_L output is connected to the CPU reset logic. Setting
the P1 bit in the Hawk Processor Init register will result in the local
processor being held in reset. Clearing the P1 bit will release the reset. This
feature can be used by a processor on the host board to disable the local
processor while the host processor programs the Bank A on-board
FLASH.

Hawk Programming Details

Error Notification and Handling
The Hawk ASIC can detect certain hardware errors and can be
programmed to report these errors via the MPIC interrupts or the Machine
Check Interrupt. The following table summarizes how the hardware errors
are handled by the MVME5100 series:

Endian Issues

Endian Issues
The MVME5100 series supports both Little and Big-Endian software.
Because the PowerPC processor is inherently big endian, and PCI is
inherently Little-Endian, it is easy to misinterpret the processing scheme.
For that reason, provisions have been made to accommodate the handling
of endian issues within the MVME5100. The following figures show how
the MVME5100 series handles the endian issue in Big-Endian and LittleEndian modes:

Endian Issues

Processor/Memory Domain
The MPC750 processor can operate in both Big-Endian and Little-Endian
modes. However, it always treats the external processor/memory bus as
Big-Endian by performing address rearrangement and reordering when
running in Little-Endian mode.
The MPIC registers inside the Hawk, the registers inside the SMC, the
SDRAM, the ROM/FLASH, and the system registers always appear as
Big-Endian.

MPIC’s Involvement
Since PCI is Little-Endian, the MPIC performs byte swapping in both
directions (from PCI to memory and from the processor to PCI). This is in
order to maintain address invariance when it is programmed to operate in
Big-Endian mode with the processor and the memory sub-system.
In Little-Endian mode, it reverse-rearranges the address for PCI-bound
accesses and rearranges the address for memory-bound accesses
(from PCI). In this case, no byte swapping is done.

PCI Domain
The PCI bus is inherently Little-Endian and all devices connected directly
to PCI will operate in Little-Endian mode, regardless of the mode of
operation in the processor’s domain.

Serial Presence Detect (SPD) Checksum Calculation

B

The checksum field (Byte 63) designates the checksum for checking data
integrity (similar to parity) for bytes 0-62. It is written during board
production and can be used to verify the data integrity for these bytes.
The process for calculating the Checksum includes the following:
1. Convert the binary information in byte locations 0-62 to decimal.
2. Add together (sum) all decimal values for addresses 0-62.
3. Divide the sum by 256.
4. Convert the remainder to binary (will be less than 256).
5. Store the result (single byte) in address 63 as “Checksum.”
Note

The same result can be obtained by adding the binary values in
addresses 0-62 and eliminating all but the low order byte. The
low order byte is the “Checksum.”

Introduction
This appendix contains an application note on establishing addressability
on the VMEbus using the MVME5100 and MVME2700 boards as
examples. Future Motorola board level documents may contain additional
application notes aimed at clarifying configuration or implementation
issues that have been noted by several Motorola customers. If you are
unsure if this application will work on your particular product
configuration, contact your Motorola sales representative.
The following paragraphs describe the setup of Universe chip registers,
using the MVME5100 and MVME2700 in order to establish
communication across a VMEbus. The scenario is simplistic at best and
does not presuppose operational consistency involving multiple
representations of these and other MVME boards. In this description, all
64MB of both boards are mapped onto the VMEbus in A32/D32 space.
The specific slave image register set used was arbitrary, but based most
nearly on those setup correctly by PPCBug’s default settings. These are
displayed in the following table:.

Introduction

The MVME2700 board, which uses a PReP memory map, is configured in
this example to occupy address space from 1000 0000 to 13FF FFFF
(64MB) on the VMEbus. The MVME5100, which defaults to a CHRP
memory map, occupies another 64MB address range, which in this
example is from 1400 0000 to 17FF FFFF. The PCI Slave Images
represent the view of the Universe on the PCI Local Bus. The VME Slave
Images represent the view of the Universe on the VMEbus. The purpose of
this application note is to demonstrate the process used to select the
appropriate Base and Bound values for the desired address mapping. In
this case, the entire 64MB of available memory space on the board has
been selected. The memory can be segmented by selecting different sizes
and mapping them using the remaining slave images within the Universe
device. In addition, by using the appropriate settings in the Control
register, the memory can be mapped as A24/D16, A16/D8, or other desired
addressing.
Once the Base and Bound values are determined, the correct value for the
Translate register must be selected so that the address presented to the bus
on the other side of the Universe is correct. Each of the Translate register’s
values were determined as follows:
2700 PCI Slave Translate
In the default memory map, PCI Memory space begins at C000 0000, the
first 1MB (100 0000) is set aside for other devices on the PCI Local Bus
that require PCI Memory. PowerPC addresses from C000 0000 to DFFF
FFFF are presented, zero based, on the PCI Local Bus. The Universe is
configured to accept PCI Memory addresses from 0100 0000 to 2000 0000
in PCI Slave Image 1. These addresses are passed unchanged to the
VMEbus. To translate a presented PCI address to a zero based VMEbus
address, the translation value of FF00 0000 was chosen. This value is the
required translation to make the presented address (0100 0000) become
0000 0000 on the VMEbus: 0100 0000 + FF00 0000 => 1 0000 0000.
2700 VME Slave Translate
For the VME Slave register, the Universe passes the presented address
unchanged onto the PCI Local Bus, unless translation is applied.
Consulting the memory maps available in the appropriate MVME
Programmer’s Guide, one finds that PowerPC memory is located at 8000

C-2

VMEbus Mapping Example

0000 on the PCI Local bus. Thus, to translate an inbound address of 1000
0000 (the configured VMEbus Base address of this board to 8000 0000,
which is presented to DRAM as 0000 0000 and translation value of 7000
0000 is selected: 1000 0000 + 7000 0000 => 8000 0000 on the PCI Local
Bus that becomes 0000 0000 on the PowerPC bus.
5100 PCI Slave Translate
In the CHRP memory map, PCI Memory Space is based at 8000 0000.
Once again, the first 1MB is reserved for other PCI devices requiring
memory space so the Universe is configured to claim addresses from 8100
0000 to A000 0000 that appear on the PCI Local Bus. Because this is a
CHRP memory map, the address presented on the PCI Local Bus is not
translated, so a PPC generated address of 8100 0000 appears on the PCI
Local Bus as 8100 0000. Again, the same translation calculation is
required to adjust this address to be presented as 0000 0000 on the
VMEbus. In this case, the value is 7F00 0000: 8100 0000 + 7F00 0000 =>
1 0000 0000.
5100 VME Slave Translation
In the CHRP memory map, DRAM is located at 0000 0000 on the PCI
Local Bus. As configured, the Universe accepts VMEbus addresses
between 1400 0000 and 17FF FFFF. To translate a VMEbus address of
1400 0000 to 0000 0000 on the PCI Local Bus a translation offset of EC00
0000 is chosen: 1400 0000 +EC00 0000 => 1 0000 0000. Once again, the
overflow results in the desired value.
