Functional Description
MVME6100 Single Board Computer Installation and Use (6806800D58H) 68
The SDRAM controller supports a wide range of SDRAM timing parameters. These parameters
can be configured through the SDRAM Mode register and the SDRAM Timing Parameters
register. Refer to the MV64360 Data Sheet, listed in
Appendix C, Related Documentation , for
additional information and programming details.
The DRAM controller contains four transaction queues—two write buffers and two read
buffers. The DRAM controller does not necessarily issue DRAM transactions in the same order
that it receives the transactions. The MV64360 is targeted to support full PowerPC cache
coherency between CPU L1/L2 caches and DRAM.
4.6.3 Device Controller Interface
The device controller supports up to five banks of devices, three of which are used for Flash
Banks A and B, NVRAM/RTC. Each bank supports up to 512MB of address space, resulting in
total device space of 1.5GB. Serial ports are the fourth and fifth devices on the MVME6100.
Each bank has its own parameters register as shown in the following table.
4.6.4 PCI/PCI-X Interfaces
The MVME6100 provides two 32/64-bit PCI/PCI-X buses, operating at a maximum frequency
of 100 MHz when configured to PCI-X mode, and run at 33 or 66 MHz when running
conventional PCI mode. PCI bus 1 is connected to the PMC slots 1 and 2.
The maximum PCI-X frequency of 100 MHz supported by PCI bus 1 may be reduced depending
on the number and/or type of PMC/PrPMC installed. If PCI bus 1 is set to +5V VIO, it runs at 33
MHz. VIO is set by the keying pins (they are both a keying pin and jumper). Both pins must be
set for the same VIO on the PCI-X bus.
