PNX17xx Series
Chapter 2: Overview
PNX17xx Series on-chip modules and co-processors observe the system global
endian mode flag. The TM5250 endian mode can be set by the TM5250 program
module itself, and should always be set identical to system endian mode.
When selecting PCI peripherals for a dual-endian mode product, care must be taken
to ensure that they can operate without ‘CPU fixup’ in either endian mode. Typically,
PowerPC compatible PCI devices support both endian-modes in the exact same way
as the PNX17xx Series.
12. System Debug
PNX17xx Series uses the JTAG port for both the purpose of boundary scan, as well
as to implement a remote debug capability for software running on the PNX17xx
Series CPU. By connecting a PC (running the Trimedia SDE Debugger) through
JTAG to a PNX17xx Series, full start-stop/breakpoint/download type interactive
debugging is possible.
