ACCESS

The REQ_N_toArb facilitates an interface to an internal (i.e., in the FPGA) pci arbiter. The v3.0 input
buffer for GNT_N is removed. This allows an internal connection to GNT_N when using an internal
arbiter. When an external arbiter is used, GNT_N_fromArb is not needed.

REQ_N is a 3-stated I/O. The REQ_N_toArb port is available to maintain a v3.0 core-like interface. The
REQ_N_toArb port allows the use of the same port list for PCI bus interface and the ucf-file for the v3.0
core is the standard file.

The v3.0 core requires that GNT_N be asserted for two clock cycles to initiate a transaction upon
receiving grants.

Bus2PCI_INTR is an active High signal. It allows asynchronous assertion of INTR_A on the PCI bus.
The signal is driven by user supplied circuitry (i.e., a PLB GPIO IP core). If it is not connected in the
mhs-file, then EDK 8.1 tools will tie the signal Low. The signal is inverted in the PLB PCI Bridge and
AND’d with the bridge interrupt signal (active Low) to drive the INTR_N input of the v3.0 core. This
signal then asynchronously drives INTR_A on the PCI bus. See the v3.0 core specifications on INTR_A
behavior relative to v3.0 input INTR_N. The v3.0 core command register interrupt disable bit controls the
INTR_A operation and v3.0 core status register Interrupt status bit flags if v3.0 core INTR_A is asserted.
