Overview

Today, the PCI bus is the number-one device connectivity standard on the market to integrate modern embedded applications into bigger systems. The Beyond PCI Bridge IP Core is built according to PCI specification Rev. 2.2 (or lower) and provides a backend connection that is WISHBONE open-standard compatible. Since standardized backend is rarely seen in common IP cores, the architecture-independent interface, which can be used in a wide variety of applications, is the PCI Bride IP Core’s major benefit.

Key features

  • PCI 2.2 compliant 32bit, 66MHz Initiator and Target interface
  • Zero wait state burst operation
  • Parameterized number of synthesizable, fully programmable images (default one, maximum 6 images) with address translation capability and 4KB to 1GB image size for access from PCI bus to address space on WISHBONE bus
  • Programmable image address space mapping (I/O or memory space)
  • PCI transaction ordering requirements; use of posted writes and delayed reads in either direction
  • Single delayed transaction support in either direction
  • Supported initiator functions:
    • Memory Read, Memory Read Line, Memory Read Multiple, Memory Write commands
    • IO Read and Write commands
    • Configuration Read and Write commands: Interrupt Acknowledge command; Support of linear burst ordering
  • Supported Target functions:
    • Memory Read, Memory Read Line, Memory Read Multiple, Memory Write, Memory Write and Invalidate commands
    • IO Read and Write commands
    • Configuration Read and Write commands
  • Support of linear burst ordering
  • Software configurable support for memory access optimizing commands
  • Fully transparent WISHBONE interface operation, controllable on image by image basis with proper software settings of configuration registers
