6-13
CHIP-SELECT UNIT
6.4.2.2 LCS Active Range
The LCS starting address is fixed at zero in memory address space; its ending address is the pro-
grammed block size minus one. Table 6.3 defines the acceptable values for the field (U17:10) in
the LMCS register that determines the LCS block size and ending address.
6.4.2.3 MCS Active Range
The starting and ending addresses of the individual MCS chip-selects are determined by the base
address programmed in the MMCS register and the block size programmed in the MPCS register
(see Table 6-4 and Figure 6-10). The base address must be an integer multiple of the block size.
Table 6-5 lists the allowable block sizes and base address limitations.
