17.1.1.3 Clocking Region 3 (Internal Bus)

Region 3 covers the 81348 internal bus and obtains is input clock from either

REFCLK+/-

or

P_CLKIN

defending on the setting of the

CLK_SRC_PCIE#

strap.

Region 3 operates at a frequency up to 400 MHz. All units interface to or reside in this

region. The units which interface to this region include the Intel XScale

®

processors,

the Memory Controller Unit, ATU and bridge to the AHB bus. Units which wholly reside

within region 3 include the Application DMA, XSI Bridge, SMBus interface, and

Peripheral Bus interface.
Region 3 contains an open-drain bi-directional clock (SMBCLK) used by the SMBus

interface. The SMBCLK operates at a maximum clock frequency of 100 KHz.

17.1.1.4 Clocking Region 4 (Peripheral Bus Interface)

Region 4 obtains its input clock from the clocking unit specified in region 3. This region

operates at a fixed 66 MHz and depending on the frequency of region 3 may be an

asynchronous boundary.

17.1.1.5 Clocking Region 5

Region 5 obtains its input clock from the clocking unit specified in region 3. This region

is used for low-speed peripheral units. Currently, this includes:

• I

2

C bus interface

• General-Purpose I/O unit

• UART serial bus interface

• Serial General-Purpose I/O unit

Region 5 contains an output clock (SCL) used for the I

2

C bus interface. The SCL clock

frequency is 100 KHz or 400 KHz. SCL is generated from the internal bus clock with its

frequency determined by the Fast Mode bit in the

I2C Control Register x — ICRx

. The

UART input clock is driven at 16.67 MHz, and divided within the unit for the serial

interface baud rate.

17.1.1.6 Clocking Region 7 (Intel XScale

®

Processor)

Region 7 obtains its input clock from either

REFCLK+/-

or

P_CLKIN

defending on the

setting of the

CLK_SRC_PCIE#

strap. This region is the Intel XScale

®

processor

(ARM* architecture compliant). It supports clock frequencies up to a maximum of 1200

MHz operation. The region 7 clock is an integer multiple of the Internal Bus clock

(region 3).
