IXP2800 Network Processor

Clocks and Reset

code is written in DRAM, PCI host writes 1 at bit [8] of Misc_Control register called Flash Alias
Disable (Reset value 0). The Alias Disable bit can be wired to the Intel XScale

®

core gasket

directly so that gasket knows how to transform address 0 from the Intel XScale

®

core. After

writing 1 at Flash Alias Disable bit, host removes reset from the Intel XScale

®

core by writing 0 in

bit [0] of IXP_RESET0 register. The Intel XScale

®

core starts booting from address 0, which is

now directed by the gasket to DRAM.
