i960® Rx I/O Processor at 3.3 V
2.1.9 Secondary PCI Arbitration Unit
The Secondary PCI Arbitration Unit provides PCI
arbitration for the secondary PCI bus. It includes a
fairness algorithm with programmable priorities and
six PCI Request and Grant signal pairs. This arbitra-
tion unit can also be disabled to allow for external
arbitration.
2.2 i960 Core Features (80960JF)
The processing power of the 80960Rx comes from
the 80960JF processor core. The 80960JF is a new,
scalar implementation of the 80960 Core Architec-
ture. Figure 2 shows a block diagram of the 80960JF
Core processor.
Factors that contribute to the 80960 family core’s
performance include:
• Single-clock execution of most instructions
• Independent Multiply/Divide Unit
• Efficient instruction pipeline minimizes pipeline
break latency
• Register and resource scoreboarding allow
overlapped instruction execution
• 128-bit register bus speeds local register caching
• 4 Kbyte two-way set-associative, integrated
instruction cache
• 2 Kbyte direct-mapped, integrated data cache
• 1 Kbyte integrated data RAM delivers zero wait
state program data
The 80960 core operates out of its own 32-bit
address space, which is independent of the PCI
address space. The local bus memory can be:
• Made visible to the PCI address space
• Kept private to the 80960 core
• Allocated as a combination of the two
