Appendix A TX49/H3 Core Supplement
This section explains items that are unique to the TX4937 of the TX49/H3 Core. Please refer to the “64-bit
TX System RISC TX49/H2, TX49/H3, TX49/H4 Core Architecture” for more information regarding the
TX49/H3 Core.
A.1 Processor
ID
PRId Register values of the TX4937 TX49/H3 Core are as follows.
Processor Revision Identifier Register: 0x0000 2D30
FPU Implementation/Revision Register (FCR0): 0x0000 2D30
These values may be changed at a later date. Please contact the Toshiba Engineering Department for the
most recent information.
A.2 Interrupts
Interrupt signalling of the on-chip interrupt controller is reflected in bit IP[2] of the Cause Register in the
TX49/H3 Core. In addition, interrupt causes are reflected in other bits of the IP field. Please refer to Section
“15.3.5 Interrupt signalling” for more information.
A.3 Bus
Snoop
The Bus Snoop function is not used with the TX4937 due to restrictions of the Bus Snoop specification.
A.4 Halt/Doze
mode
The Doze mode is not necessary when the Bus Snoop function is not used. Please use the Halt mode,
which further reduces power consumption. Clearing the HALT bit of the Config Register makes it possible to
shift to the Halt mode by executing the WAIT instruction.
A.5
Memory access order
The TX49/H3 Core has a 4-stage Write buffer, the PCI Bus Bridge (PCI Controller) has 4 stages for
initiator access, and has a 2-stage Post Write buffer (Write buffer) for target access.
When data enters the Write buffer of the TX49/H3 Core, Cache Refill Read operations that do not match
the address of that data after the Write is issued may be issued to the internal bus (G-Bus) before the Write.
Other accesses are issued in order.
Executing the SYNC instruction guarantees that bus access invoked by a load/store instruction previously
executed will be complete on the internal bus.
The PCI Bus Bridge is issued by the issue destination bus in the order all bus accesses are issued on the
issue source bus. Please refer to “10.3.6 Post Write Function” for more information regarding methods for
guaranteeing the completion of Write transactions of the Post Write Buffer.
