Abstract |
|
The purpose of this paper is to integrate the PCI CORE TO AMBA AHB BUS INTERFACE. The design accounts for crossing clock domains as it is inevitable in a system on chip design with multiple components running at different frequencies. The Bridge maps various control signals and address spaces from one bus into those of another bus. This high performance bridge enables any embedded processor connected to an AMBA AHB to act either as a host bridge or a simple bridge on a PCI bus. A host bridge connects CPU to on board PCI devices, it contains PCI arbiter and is used to initialize and communicate with PCI devices. A simple bridge is usually implemented in PCI plug-in board and makes CPU act as a master/target PCI device. The interface will be useful in many SoC having AMBA bus in the RISC processor which will be connected to other peripherals. |
