Local PCI Bus Resources
As stated earlier in this chapter, the CPCI-6020 features two host bridges (provided by Harrier 
A and B ASICs), which allow for two independent PCI Bus hierarchies. The resources of these 
two buses are described in the following subsections.
4.3.1
PCI Bus A Resources
The Harrier A ASIC serves as the bridge from the processor bus (marked PowerPC Bus on the 
block diagram) to local PCI Bus A. In addition to the Harrier A ASIC, PCI Bus A is connected to 
two CompactPCI domains: a local domain using a transparent PCI-to-PCI bridge and the J1 
and J2 connectors and a remote domain for connection to a Motorola HA chassis using the J4 
connector. PCI Bus A also serves as an interface to the primary Ethernet port on the front panel, 
a PCI/ISA bridge connecting ESCC, CIO, and four USB ports. All features on PCI Bus A are 
described in the following subsections.
4.3.1.1
Local CompactPCI Bus
PCI Bus A provides a local CompactPCI Bus interface by using the Intel 21154 PCI-to-PCI 
bridge chip. This device implements a 64-bit primary data bus and 64-bit secondary data bus 
interface and is PCI 2.1 compliant. The 21154 provides read/write data buffering in both 
directions.
The 21154 supports +3.3 V or +5 V signalling at the PCI busses with a separate VIO pin for the 
primary and secondary bus buffers. The primary bus signalling voltage is tied to +5 V. The 
secondary bus signalling voltage is tied to the CPCI Bus VIO, so the CPCI-6020 is a universal 
board that may operate in a +3.3 V or +5 V chassis.
A CompactPCI Bus interface will support a maximum of seven CompactPCI cards/loads per 
segment when operating at 33 MHz. This CompactPCI Bus interface is compliant with the 
CompactPCI 2.0 specification as listed in 
.
4.3.1.2
Remote (Expansion) CompactPCI Bus
PCI Bus A is also routed to the J4 connector. In a Motorola HA chassis this is routed across the 
backplane to a bridge card. On the bridge card this bus interfaces to the remote CompactPCI 
Bus through a transparent PCI-to-PCI bridge. The interrupts INTA-D# coming from the bridge 
card are kept separate from the interrupts INTA-INTD# from sources on the CPCI-6020 even 
though they share the same bus segment.
4.3.1.3
Primary Ethernet Channel
The CPCI-6020 uses an Intel GD82551IT Ethernet Controller to implement a primary 
10BaseT/100BaseTx Ethernet channel on PCI Bus A. The GD82551IT consists of both the 
Media Access Controller (MAC) and the physical layer (PHY) in a single integrated package. 
The standard board configuration provides for a front panel Ethernet connection via an RJ-45 
connector. A custom-build option is available for a rear I/O Ethernet by routing the Ethernet 
transmit and receive signal pairs to the J5 connector.
This GD82551IT resides on PCI Bus A and always runs at 33 MHz and 64 bits.
