Section 3. CPU Interface Functional Overview
The GT-64260A supports PowerPC 64-bit bus CPUs. (See
Section 3.5 "Specific CPUs Aspects"
These include the
following:
•
Motorola MPC603e/604e
•
Motorola MPC740/750/755
•
Motorola PowerQUICC II (MPC8260)
•
Motorola MPC7400/7410/745x
•
IBM PPC603e
•
IBM PPC750/750cx/e/750FX
•
Any 64-bit 60x or MPX compatible CPU
The CPU interface can work as a slave interface, responding to CPU transactions, or as a master interface, gen-
erating transactions on the CPU bus. The master interface is used for PowerPC snoop generation. It also allows
for access to MPC8260 local memory or GT-to-GT transfers in a multi-GT-64260A configuration.

CPU Pinout Description
The GT-64260A provides all the pins needed to interface between the PowerPC processor and other devices
(such as SDRAM, ROM, PCI, etc.). Generally, there is a point-to-point connection between the GT-64260A and
the CPU. In other cases, it depends on the system architecture, such as multi-GT-64260A, multiple CPU, or exter-
nal arbiter. The following table describes the pin information and details of the GT-64260A CPU interface.

Some CPUs use D[0-63] for
the entire data bus. In this
case, use the following connec-
tion:
•
DH[0-31] = D[0-31]
•
DL[0-31]=D[32-63]
