1 The settings on the Capability Registers page do not cause any features to be enabled
or disabled in the RapidIO II IP core. Instead, they set the values of certain bit fields in
some CARs.
Device Identity CAR
The Device Identity CAR options identify the device and vendor IDs and set values
in the Device Identity (
Table 6–22 on page 6–26 ) CAR.
Device ID
Device ID sets the DeviceIdentity field of the Device Identity register. This option
uniquely identifies the type of device from the vendor specified in the
DeviceVendorIdentity
field of the Device Identity register.
1 This DeviceIdentity field of the Device Identity register ( Table 6–22 ) should not be
confused with the Base_deviceID field in the Base Device ID CSR ( Table 6–36 on
page 6–33 ).
Vendor ID
Vendor ID uniquely identifies the vendor and sets the DeviceVendorIdentity field in
the Device Identity register. Set Vendor ID to the identifier value assigned by the
RapidIO Trade Association to your company.
Device Information CAR
The Device Information CAR option identifies the revision ID and sets its value in
the Device Information (
Table 6–23 on page 6–26 ) CAR.
Revision ID
Revision ID identifies the revision level of the device and sets the value of the
DeviceRev field in the DeviceRev field of the Device Information register ( Table 6–23 ).
This value is assigned and managed by the vendor specified in the VendorIdentity
field of the Device Identity register (
Table 6–22 ).
Assembly Identity CAR
The Assembly Identity CAR options identify the vendor who manufactured the
assembly or subsystem of the device, and sets these values in the Assembly Identity
(
Table 6–24 on page 6–27 ) CAR.
Assembly ID
Assembly ID corresponds to the AssyIdentity field of the Assembly Identity register
( Table 6–24 ), which uniquely identifies the type of assembly. This field is assigned and
managed by the vendor specified in the AssyVendorIdentity field of the Assembly
Identity
register.
