FW322 Functional Description
PCI Core
The PCI core (shown in Figure 2) serves as the interface to the PCI bus. It contains the state machines that allow
the FW322 to respond properly when it is the target of the transaction. Also, during 1394 packet transmission or
reception, the PCI core arbitrates for the PCI bus and enables the FW322 to become the bus master for reading
the different buffer descriptors and management of the actual data transfers to/from host system memory.
The PCI core also supports the PCI Bus Power Management Interface Specification v.1.1. Included in this support
is a standard power management register interface accessible through the PCI configuration space. Through this
register interface, software is able to transition the FW322 into four distinct power consumption states (D0, D1,
D2, and D3hot). This permits software to selectively increase/decrease the power consumption of the FW322 for
reasons such as periods of system inactivity or power conservation. In addition, the FW322 also includes support
for waking up the system through the generation of a power management event (PME).
The FW322 supports generation of a power management event (PME) while in the D0, D1, D2, D3hot, and
D3cold power states. To facilitate PME generation from the D3cold power state, the FW322 supports the
detection of an auxiliary power supply. If an auxiliary power supply is not present, PME generation from the
D3cold power state is disabled. Refer to the FW322 06/FW323 06 D3cold Application Note for specific
implementation details of enabling and supporting the generation of a PME wakeup event while the FW322 is in
the D3cold power state.
The PCI core will support CardBus applications, per the PC Card Standard v8.0, when the CARDBUSN pin is low.
This support includes the CardBus I/O electrical requirements, the CIS (Card Information Structure) pointer,
128 bytes of memory in PCI configuration space for user-defined tuples, an additional Base Address register
dedicated to CardBus registers, a serial EEPROM format to load the CIS into PCI configuration space, and the
CardBus Function Event registers. The FW322 will also support the CardBus implementation of PCI power
management, including support for the CSTSCHG (CardBus status change) signal. Refer to the Application Note,
Using the FW322 06/FW323 06 in CardBus Applications, for more information.
