Interrupt Controller
The Interrupt controller in the TX7901 supports both internal and external interrupts to the C790
core. It contains an interrupt source register to identify up to 22 different interrupt sources. In
addition, there is an interrupt register mask that is used to mask interrupt sources to the C790.
The supported Interrupts are:
•
PCI Controller, MACs, DMAC, UARTs, Timers, SPI Interrupts, Bus errors and
external interrupts
Non-Maskable Interrupt (NMI)
Non-Maskable Interrupts are used to indicate fatal conditions. ECC uncorrectable errors, the
watchdog timer, and external NMI pins are sources of NMIs.
Triple Timer-Counters (“TMR”)
The three timer counters integrated into the TX7901 each have their own particular 24-bit up
counter and control registers for implementing each timer control “channel”.
•
Timer 0 is an internal timer that uses the internal clock and operates in the Internal
Timer Mode, which causes periodic interrupts.
•
Timer 1 for Channel 1 operates in the Interval Timer Mode or Pulse Generator Mode,
which generates waveforms of arbitrary frequencies and duty ratios.
•
Timer 2 for Channel 2 operates in the Pulse Generator Mode and Watchdog Timer
mode, monitoring system runaway conditions in the Interval Timer mode.
UART
•
Dual
UARTs
•
Modem flow control (CTS/RTS)
•
Baud
rate
generator
•
Software-compatible with NSC NS16550A
SPI
•
Master
operation
•
Supports Serial Boot ROM and RTC. Flash ROM and EEPROM are supported by
the Companion chip.
•
Supports Atmel serial ROM as Boot ROM
HW JTAG Scan Test logic support
•
JTAG external test mode for chip boundary tests facilitates board testing.
•
Full SCAN design and direct memory test modes facilitate chip testing.
