Functional Description
A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery is
ensured for a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each
signal line.
2.7.3 Request (REQ)/Acknowledge (ACK) Control
A_SACK/, B_SACK
±
, A_SREQ/ and B_SREQ
±
are clock and control
signals. Their signal paths contain controls to guarantee minimum pulse
width, filter edges, and does some re-timing when used as data transfer
clocks. Each signal, REQ and ACK, has paths from A to B and B to A.
The received signal goes through the following processing steps before
being sent to the opposite bus.
1.
The asserted input signal is sensed and forwarded to the next stage
if the direction control permits it. The direction controls are developed
from state machines that are driven by the sequence of bus control
signals.
2.
The signal must then pass the test of not being generated by the
SYM53C141.
3.
In the A to B bus direction, the next stage is a leading edge filter.
This ensures that the output does not switch during the specified
hold time after the leading edge. The duration of the input signal
determines the duration of the output after the hold time. In the B to
A direction, the circuit guarantees a minimum pulse.
4.
The next stage passes the signal if it is not a data clock. If REQ or
ACK is a data clock, it delays the leading edge to improve data
output setup times. The duration is again controlled by the input
signal.
5.
The following stage is a trailing edge signal filter. When the signal
deasserts, the filter does not permit any signal bounce. The output
signal deasserts at the first deasserted edge of the input signal.
6.
The last stage develops pull-up and pull-down signals with drive and
3-state control.
7.
A parallel function ensures that bus (transmission line) recovery is
ensured for a specified time after the last signal deassertion on each
signal line.
