17.1.1

Clocking Theory of Operation

Each region within the 81348 contains different clocking requirements. These

requirements are summarized in the following sections.

17.1.1.1 Clocking Region 1 (PCI Express)

Region 1 obtains its input clock from the PCI Express reference clock The

REFCLK+/-

differential input supplies a 100 MHz clock for normal operation on the PCI Express

interface. The analog front end for this region generates the 2.5 GHz clock used for the

serial PCI Express interface as well as a 250 MHz clock used by the transaction layer. In

addition to the locally generated clocks, region 1 utilizes the internal bus clock

generated by the core PLL to interface to the internal bus (region 3).
Also contains a 25 MHz clock used by the power management logic.

17.1.1.2 Clocking Region 2 (PCI)

Region 2 obtains its input clock from the PCI bus clock connected to the input pin

P_CLKIN

. 81348 supports an input frequency of 33 MHz, 66 MHz, 100 MHz, and

133 MHz for normal operation on the PCI interface. Additionally region 2 utilizes the

internal bus clock generated by the core PLL to interface to the internal bus (region 3).
