Overview
The Tsi384 provides a connection path between a PCI/X bus and a PCIe link. The main function of the
Tsi384 is to allow transactions between a master or a transmitter on one bus\link, and a target or a
receiver on the other bus\link. The PCI/X Interface can operate in 32-/64-bit PCI mode up to 66 MHz,
or in PCI-X mode up to 133 MHz. Transactions flow through the Tsi384 can be classified as follows:
•
PCIe-to-PCI
•
PCIe-to-PCI-X
•
PCI-to-PCIe
•
PCI-X-to-PCIe
6.2
Flow Control Advertisements
The flow control method on the PCI/X Interface is managed through retries or disconnects, where as on
the PCIe link it is managed using flow control credits.
On the PCI/X Interface, the Tsi384 issues retries to new request transactions and issues a disconnect for
the active transaction if the internal request queues or data storage buffers are full or approaching full.
