| | 5 | == 1) Functional Description == |
| | 6 | |
| | 7 | This hardware component is a generic system bus respecting the |
| | 8 | VCI advanced protocol. As any bus, it supports one single transaction at a given time. |
| | 9 | It reproduces accurately the timing behaviour (both throughput & latency) of |
| | 10 | the PIbus. |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | It gives the system designer a generic "communication black-box" with |
| | 13 | a parametrized number of VCI initiator ports (NB_INITIATOR), |
| | 14 | and a parameterized number of VCI target ports (NB_TARGET). |
| | 15 | It can be used to build a "flat" interconnect, where |
| | 16 | all VCI initiators and targets are identified by a single index: |
| | 17 | * The VCI targets must be indexed from 0 to (NB_TARGET - 1). |
| | 18 | * The VCI initiators must be indexed from 0 to (NB_INITIATOR - 1). |
| | 19 | When several initiators try to use the bus, the arbitration |
| | 20 | policy is round-robin. |
| | 21 | |
| | 22 | As any VCI advanced compliant interconnect, this component uses |
| | 23 | the MSB bits of the VCI ADDRESS field to route the command packets |
| | 24 | to the proper target, thanks to a routing table, implemented as a ROM. |
| | 25 | This routing table is build by the constructor from the informations stored in |
| | 26 | the [wiki:Component/MappingTable mapping table]. |
