Bus Protocol & Speed Sensing
Note:
The JP10 jumper settings tell the central system arbiter what the capability of the
board. The PCI and PCI-X bus speed and type is determined by the system BIOS at
powerup. During the time that RST# is asserted, the system reads the signals on B49
(M66EN) and B38 (PCIXCAP) from all of the boards asserted on the bus. At the
rising edge of RST# a message defining the bus protocol and operating speed that
satisfies the lowest performance on the bus is sent to all of the cards on the bus. This
message is sent by the following five control signals: FRAME, IRDY#, TRDY#,
DEVSEL# and STOP#.
For example, if PCIX CAP is set to 0, the DUT is only PCI protocol capable and if
M66EN is 0, then the bus speed is PCI 33MHz and for M66EN = 1 the DUT is PCI
66MHz capable. For non zero values of PCIX CAP the bus speed is dependant on
the voltage level and can be either, PCIX 66MHz or PCIX 133 MHz.
Additionally the JP10 jumper setting allows the same bus information to be acquired
from the DUT during RST# or allow setting a predefined protocol and bus speed
regardless of the DUT capability
The bus information returned at the rising edge of RST# that must be decoded by
the DUT for proper information is also decoded by the TA700 and is displayed on
the bottom of the screen.
Caution The JP10 setting information and the bus data returned at the rising edge of RST#
do not have to match if there is more than one agent on the bus.
