Local Bus Time-out
The MVME177 provides a time-out function for the local bus. When
the timer is enabled and a local bus access times out, a Transfer
Error Acknowledge (TEA) signal is sent to the local bus master. The
time-out value is selectable by software for:
❏
8
µ
sec
❏
64
µ
sec
❏
256
µ
sec
❏
Infinite
The local bus timer does not operate during VMEbus bound cycles.
VMEbus bound cycles are timed by the VMEbus access timer and
the VMEbus global timer. Refer to the VMEchip2 in the
Single Board
Computers Programmer's Reference Guide
for detailed programming
information.
Module Identification
Software distinguishes between an MVME177 module and an
MVME176 module by use of the I/O control register (GPI) bit 3. On
an MVME177, the I/O control register (GPI) bit 3 is out (open) for a
ÒhighÓ (one). On an MVME176, the I/O control register (GPI) bit 3
is hardwired in (shorted) for a ÒlowÓ (zero).
Timing Performance
This section provides the performance information for the
MVME177. Various MVME177s are designed to operate at 50 MHz
or 60 MHz (when supported by 060).
Local Bus to DRAM Cycle Times
The PCCchip2 and VMEchip2 have the same local bus interface
timing as the MC68060, therefore the following cycle times also
apply to the PCCchip2 and the VMEchip2. Read accesses to
