CLOCK GENERATION
The C3 provides nine clock outputs that are associated with system bus clock
generation, as well as a 20MHz clock output and a 24MHz clock output. The
ten bus clock outputs consist of nine identical buffered system clocks and one
dedicated output for processor to system clock synchronization. The system
clocks - SysCLK(0:8) - are provided to drive devices on the system bus, as well
as other devices that need to operate at the system clock frequency. The
processor synchronization clock output (SyncOut) must be connected to the
processor synchronization clock input (SyncIn) through a delay path that
matches the delay path of the system clocks to ensure proper operation of the
C3 in the system. The 20MHz and 24MHz clocks are provided for system
peripherals that have fixed frequency requirements.
WATCHDOG TIMER
The watchdog timer input (WDStrb pin B-172) of the C3 must be strobed
periodically to prevent the watchdog timer output (WDO* pin B-173) from being
asserted. If the input is not strobed within 1 second of the previous strobe, the
output will be asserted. Note that if the watchdog timer functionality is not required,
these pins can be left unconnected.
5V TOLERANCE CIRCUITRY
5V tolerance is provided by running the signals through bus switches.
All inputs and I/O's are 5V tolerant except for SYNCIN. The input voltage
on SYNCIN must not exceed VCC3 + 0.3V. (Not available on 7M9521 and
7M9522).
BOARD OVERVIEW
The C3 processor cards consist of the following functional blocks: 64bit
MIPS CPU, clock generation circuitry for the processor/system clocks,
processor reset and configuration circuitry, and an optional L2 cache
subsystem.
RESET CONFIGURATION
The C3 contains on board reset generation logic that provides all of the
reset requirements of the processor. This reset logic handles all Power On
Reset requirements, as well as handling two system hard reset sources
(S_HardRST*, A_HardRST*) and a system soft reset source (SoftRST*).
In addition, the reset logic of the C3 also provides a reset output (RSTOut*)
to the system that is asserted whenever there is a processor hard reset.
C3 CONFIGURATION
The C3 is configured through a set of static configuration inputs. The
configuration inputs are used for both C3 clock configuration and proces-
sor configuration. The clock configuration inputs are used to set the
system bus clock frequency and the CPU core to system bus clock
multiplier. The processor configuration inputs are used to configure the
following: endianess (big/little), drive strength (83%/100%), internal timer
(enabled/disabled), write type (R4X00/pipelined) and block write data rate
(D/Dx/Dxx/Dxxx).
