CIRRUS LOGIC PRODUCT DATA SHEET
CS8900A will not attempt to read configuration
data from the EEPROM.
3.4.3.5 Determining Number of Bytes in the Reset
Configuration Block
The low byte of the Reset Configuration Block
header is known as the link byte. The value of the
Link Byte represents the number of bytes of config-
uration data in the Reset Configuration Block. The
two bytes used for the header are excluded when
calculating the Link Byte value.
For example, a Reset Configuration Block header
of A104h indicates a non-sequential EEPROM pro-
grammed with a Reset Configuration Block con-
taining 4 bytes of configuration data. This Reset
Configuration Block occupies 6 bytes (3 words) of
EEPROM space (2 bytes for the header and 4 bytes
of configuration data).
3.4.4 Groups of Configuration Data
Configuration data are arranged as groups of
words. Each group contains one or more words of
data that are to be loaded into PacketPage registers.
Word Address
Value
Description
FIRST WORD in DATA BLOCK
00h
A120h
Configuration Block Header.
The high byte, A1h, indicates a ‘C46 EEPROM is attached. The Link Byte,
20h, indicates the number of bytes to be used in this block of configuration
data.
FIRST GROUP of WORDS
01h
2020h
Group Header for first group of words.
Three words to be loaded, beginning at 0020h in PacketPage memory.
02h
0300h
I/O Base Address
03h
0003h
Interrupt Number
04h
0001h
DMA Channel Number
SECOND GROUP of WORDS
05h
502Ch
Group Header for second group of words.
Six words to be loaded, beginning at 002Ch in PacketPage memory.
06h
E000h
Memory Base Address - low word
07
000Fh
Memory Base Address - high word
08h
0000h
Boot PROM Base Address - low word
09h
000Dh
Boot PROM Base Address - high word
0Ah
C000h
Boot PROM Address Mask - low word
0Bh
000Fh
Boot PROM Address Mask - high word
THIRD GROUP of WORDS
0Ch
2158h
Group Header for third group of words.
Three words to be loaded, beginning at 0158 in PacketPage memory.
0Dh
0010h
Individual Address - Octet 0 and 1
0Eh
0000h
Individual Address - Octet 2 and 3
0Fh
0000h
Individual Address - Octet 4 and 5
CHECKSUM Value
10h
2800h
The high byte, 28h, is the Checksum Value. In this example, the check-
sum includes word addresses 00h through 0Fh. The hexadecimal sum of
the bytes is D8h, resulting in a 2’s complement of 28h. The low byte, 00h,
provides a pad to the word boundary.
* FFFFh is a special code indicating that there are no more words in the EEPROM.
