IP2 Chip

Functional Description
The following sections provide an overview of the functions provided by
the IP2 chip. A detailed programming model for the IP2 chip control and
status registers is provided in a later section of this chapter.
General Description
The IP2 chip converts IP-bound MC68060 read/write/interrupt
acknowledge cycles to IndustryPack cycles. Control registers within the
IP2 chip control the assumed width of the IndustryPack that is being
accessed. The IP2 chip interfaces to four 16-bit IndustryPack positions.
The naming convention for single size IndustryPack population of each of
these positions is: IndustryPack-a (IP_a), IndustryPack-b (IP_b),
IndustryPack-c (IP_c), and IndustryPack-d (IP_d). The naming convention
for double size IndustryPack population of these positions is IndustryPack-
a/b (IP_ab) and IndustryPack-c/d (IP_cd). (A double size IndustryPack can
occupy positions A and B, or it can occupy positions C and D.)
Note
The 200/300-Series MVME172 does not implement
interfaces to IP_c and IP_d, although these interfaces are
documented in Chapter 4 and the physical control registers
for them exist.
Cache Coherency
The IP2 chip observes the snoop control (SC0) and memory inhibit (MI*)
signals to maintain cache coherency. When SC0 indicates that snooping is
inhibited, the IP2 chip pair ignores the memory inhibit (MI*) signal line.
When SC0 does not indicate that snooping is inhibited, the IP2 chip waits
for the negation of MI* before responding to a cycle. If TA* or TEA* is
asserted by another local bus slave before MI* is negated, then the IP2 chip
assumes that the cycle is over and that it is not to participate.
