PCMCIA mode

The EBUSC Controller supports the following functions of the 16-Bit PC Card interface.

The EBUSC Controller supports 2 PCMCIA slots. Any of the eight EBUSC Controller channels can

target the 2 PCMCIA slots. The use of channels 6 and 7 first for PCMCIA is recommended, since their

normal CE_ signals are not pinned out and they cannot be used for any other function. For a channel to

target a PCMCIA slot, it must first be in a PCMCIA mode. This is done by programming the PCM field

to a non zero value. See the PCM field description for more details. Once a channel has been

programmed to a PCMCIA mode, the PCS bit determines which slot is accessed via the two pairs of

Card Enable signals.

Since pin multiplexing exists on the TX4925 device, the PCMCIA pin selection should be configured

appropriately. Please refer to “3.3 Pin Multiplexing” for more information.

It should be noted that a normal dedicated CE_ for a channel used for PCMCIA access will continue

to go active when that channel is accessed. It is up to the system designer to make sure that this does not

cause any conflict on the external buses. The signals BWE*/BE*, OE*, and WE* also continue to cycle

regardless of the PCMCIA mode. This was done for AC timing considerations.

OE* and WE* are forced inactive during IO access.

CARDIORD* and CARDIOWR* are multiplexed on BWE*/BE*[3:2] pins respectively in a time

multiplexed manner on the TX4925.

7.3.9.1

PCMCIA Mode Selects

A channel that is allocated to be used as a PCMCIA control channel can be put into one of four

access modes. The first is the Attribute Memory Access mode. This mode is typically used at

power on only to determine the type of PCMCIA card installed. The second is the Common

Memory Access Mode, used for cards that are of the memory type. The third is IO Access mode,

used for cards that support IO. A single channel can be used initially for Attribute access to

determine the card types and then that channel can be reallocated for one of the cards.

In the case of properties access, memory access, and I/O access is determined by differences in

the signals CARDREG*, CARDIORD*, CARDIOWR*, the maximum address space, and width

of the access. Consult the PCMCIA 16-Bit PC Card specification for details.

7.3.9.2

PCMCIA Slot Selection

Slot 1 is accessed by programming the PCS bit to 0 and the CARD1CSH*/CARD1CSL*

signals are active. If the PCS bit is set to 1 then Slot 2 is accessed and the

CARD2CSH*/CARD2CSL* signals are active.
