multiplexed mode, the host’s address is presented over CPU_DATA(15:0), prior to
the data phase of the transfer.
For applications demanding the fastest data throughput performance, use of either
the Synchronous CPU interface or the
Total-AceXtreme’s
PCI interface is
recommended. This is because both of these interfaces support burst transfers.
Bursting for the Synchronous CPU interface can be for either 32-bit or 16-bit words,
at rates up to 80 Mwords/s.
6.2.1 Static Configuration Signals
The
Total-AceXtreme®
includes four static input signals for establishing the
configuration for the host interface: PCI_nCPU, DATA32_n16,
CPU_ASYNC_nSYNC, and ADMULTI. The operation of these signals is shown in
Table 3. Note that DATA32_n16, CPU_ASYNC_nSYNC, and ADMULTI have no
affect on the operation of the
Total-AceXtreme’s
PCI interface.

6.2.2 Parallel CPU Interface Signals
The following input and outputs signals are common to all or most of the parallel CPU
interface modes:

•
CPU_DATA(31:0):
Bi-directional 32-bit host bit data bus. In 16-bit mode, only CPU_DATA(15:0) is
used, while CPU_DATA(31:16) is not used. The operation of CPU_DATA(31:0)
varies as a function of which host CPU interface configuration is used. For the
multiplexed address/data modes, the host presents its memory or register
address to the
Total-AceXtreme
on CPU_DATA(15:0) and must assert
ADDR_LAT high during this time.
