Functional Description
ceivers are disabled during access to that region, avoiding possible
A
 contention over data lines.
The MSC8101 chip-selects assignment to the various memories / registers on the MSC8101ADS
are shown in

Synchronous DRAM Bank
To enhance MSC8101ADS performance, 16MBytes of SDRAM is provided on the Unbuffered
PPC Bus for storage and fast data exchange. The SDRAM is configured as 2 X 2Meg X 32. Use
is done with two MT48LC2M32B2 chips by Micron or compatibles (Samsung). The part data sheet
may be obtained on the Internet at URL: http://www.micron.com/mti/msp/htm/datasheet.html.
Since it includes only 2 memory chips, the SDRAM is unbuffered from the MSC8101, avoiding the
delay associated with address and data buffers. As the volume of this sdram is far beyond any
possible future requirement, the SDRAM is soldered directly to the board.
In order to provide Host Interface held a half of the Data Bus (32bits of 64bits wide) width the DIP
switch array is present. It allows to shift address field by one bit A28->A29, A27->A28,.A12->A13.
In this case we can use one from two SDRAM chip, therewith the second chip will be disable with
BCSR’s control bit - memory space will be decreased by half. The system bus of the MSC8101 is
very fast and run up to 100MHz, therefore any type of logic for address mux puts large timing
penalty and impossible. The mux is done by jumper’s array. Se
The SDRAM’s timing is controlled by the 1’nd SDRAM machine of the MSC8101, which will be
E. When an unbuffered CS region is being accessed, buffers do not open anyway.
