asserted for each data beat in a burst transaction. For more information, see

Section 8.5.3, “Data Bus Transfers and Normal Termination.”

Negated—(During assertion of DBB) indicates that, until TA is asserted, the
PowerQUICC II must continue to drive the data for the current write or must wait
to sample the data for reads.

Timing Comments

Assertion—Depends on whether or not the PCI controller can initiate 60x bus
global transactions when the address retry mechanism is in use:

PCI controller is not used or cannot initiate global transactions— Assertion must

occur at least one cycle following AACK for the current transaction;
otherwise, assertion may occur at any time during the assertion of DBB.
The system can withhold assertion of TA to indicate that the
PowerQUICC II should insert wait states to extend the duration of the data
beat.

PCI controller can initiate global transactions—Assertion must occur at least one

clock cycle following AACK for the current transaction and at least one
clock cycle after ARTRY can be asserted.

Negation—Must occur after the bus clock cycle of the final (or only) data beat of
the transfer. For a burst transfer, the system can assert TA for one bus clock cycle
and then negate it to advance the burst transfer to the next beat and insert wait
states during the next beat. (Note: when configured for 1:1 clock mode and is
performing a burst read into the data cache, the PowerQUICC II requires two wait
states between the assertion of TS and the first assertion of TA for that transaction,
or one wait state for 1.5:1 clock mode.)

7.2.8.1.2

Transfer Acknowledge (TA)—Output

Following are the state meaning and timing comments for TA as an output signal.

State Meaning

Asserted—Indicates that the data has been latched for a write operation, or that the
data is valid for a read operation, thus terminating the current data beat. If it is the
last or only data beat, this also terminates the data tenure.

Negated—Indicates that master must extend the current data beat (insert wait
states) until data can be provided or accepted by the PowerQUICC II.

Timing Comments

Assertion—Depends on whether or not the PCI controller can initiate 60x bus
global transactions when the address retry mechanism is in use:

PCI controller is not used or cannot initiate global transactions—Assertion must

occur at least one cycle following AACK for the current transaction;
occurs on the clock in which the current data transfer can be completed.

PCI controller can initiate global transactions—Assertion must occur at least one

clock cycle following AACK for the current transaction and at least one
clock cycle after ARTRY can be asserted.
