7.2.1 Signal Description – PCI Slot Connector
SYSTEM PINS
CLK
Clock provides timing for all transactions on PCI and is an input to every PCI device. All other PCI
signals, except RST#, INTA#, INTB#, INTC#, and INTD#, are sampled on the risingedge of CLK and
all other timing parameters are defined with respect to this edge. PCI operates at 33MHz.
PME#
Power Management Event interrupt signal. Wake up signal.
RST#
Reset is used to bring PCI-specific registers, sequencers, and signals to a consistent state. What
effect RST# has on a device beyond the PCI sequencer is beyond the scope of this specification,
except for reset states of required PCI configuration registers. Anytime RST# is asserted, all PCI
output signals must be driven to their benign state. In general, this means they must be
asynchronously tri-stated. SERR# (open drain) is floated. REQ# and GNT# must both be tri-stated
(they cannot be driven low or high during reset). To prevent AD, C/BE#, and PAR signals from
floating during reset, the central resource may drive these lines during reset (bus parking) but only to
a logic low level–they may not be driven high.
RST# may be asynchronous to CLK when asserted or deasserted. Although asynchronous,
deassertion is guaranteed to be a clean, bounce-free edge. Except for configuration accesses, only
devices that are required to boot the system will respond after reset.
ADDRESS AND DATA
AD[31::00]
Address and Data are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. A bus transaction consists of an address
phase followed by one or more data phases. PCI supports both read and write bursts.
The address phase is the clock cycle in which FRAME# is asserted. During the address phase
AD[31::00] contain a physical address (32 bits). For I/O, this is a byte address; for configuration and
memory, it is a DWORD address. During data phases AD[07::00] contain the least significant byte
(lsb) and AD[31::24] contain the most significant byte (msb). Write data is stable and valid when
IRDY# is asserted and read data is stable and valid when TRDY# is asserted. Data is transferred
during those clocks where both IRDY# and TRDY# are asserted.
C/BE[3::0]# Bus Command and Byte Enables are multiplexed on the same PCI pins. During the address phase of
a transaction, C/BE[3::0]# define the bus command. During the data phase C/BE[3::0]# are used as
Byte Enables. The Byte Enables are valid for the entire data phase and determine which byte lanes
carry meaningful data. C/BE[0]# applies to byte 0 (lsb) and C/BE[3]# applies to byte 3 (msb).
PAR
Parity is even parity across AD[31::00] and C/BE[3::0]#. Parity generation is required by all PCI
agents. PAR is stable and valid one clock after the address phase. For data phases, PAR is stable
and valid one clock after either IRDY# is asserted on a write transaction or TRDY# is asserted on a
read transaction. Once PAR is valid, it remains valid until one clock after the completion of the current
data phase. (PAR has the same timing as AD[31::00], but it is delayed by one clock.) The master
drives PAR for address and write data phases; the target drives PAR for read data phases.
INTERFACE CONTROL PINS
FRAME#
Cycle Frame is driven by the current master to indicate the beginning and duration of an access.
FRAME# is asserted to indicate a bus transaction is beginning. While FRAME# is asserted, data
transfers continue. When FRAME# is deasserted, the transaction is in the final data phase or has
completed.
IRDY#
Initiator Ready indicates the initiating agent’s (bus master’s) ability to complete the current data
phase of the transaction. IRDY# is used in conjunction with TRDY#. A data phase is completed on
any clock both IRDY# and TRDY# are sampled asserted. During a write, IRDY# indicates that valid
data is present on AD[31::00]. During a read, it indicates the master is prepared to accept data. Wait
cycles are inserted until both IRDY# and TRDY# are asserted together.
TRDY#
Target Ready indicates the target agent’s (selected device’s) ability to complete the current data
phase of the transaction. TRDY# is used in conjunction with IRDY#. A data phase is completed on
any clock both TRDY# and IRDY# are sampled asserted. During a read, TRDY# indicates that valid
data is present on AD[31::00]. During a write, it indicates the target is prepared to accept data. Wait
cycles are inserted until both IRDY# and TRDY# are asserted together.
STOP#
Stop indicates the current target is requesting the master to stop the current transaction.
LOCK#
Lock indicates an atomic operation that may require multiple transactions to complete. When LOCK#
is asserted, non-exclusive transactions may proceed to an address that is not currently locked. A
grant to start a transaction on PCI does not guarantee control of LOCK#. Control of LOCK# is
obtained under its own protocol in conjunction with GNT#. It is possible for different agents to use
PCI while a single master retains ownership of LOCK#. If a device implements Executable Memory, it
should also implement LOCK# and guarantee complete access exclusion in that memory. A target of
an access that supports LOCK# must provide exclusion to a minimum of 16 bytes (aligned). Host
bridges that have system memory behind them should implement LOCK# as a target from the PCI
bus point of view and optionally as a master.
IDSEL
Initialization Device Select is used as a chip select during configuration read and write transactions.
DEVSEL#
Device Select, when actively driven, indicates the driving device has decoded its address as the
target of the current access. As an input, DEVSEL# indicates whether any device on the bus has
been selected.
