S5935 – PCI Product
Data Book
The master write transfer count register is used to con-
vey to the S5935 controller the actual number of bytes
that are to be transferred. The value in this register is
decremented with each bus master PCI write opera-
tion until the transfer count reaches zero.

Upon reaching zero, the transfer operation ceases and
an interrupt may be optionally generated to either the
PCI or Add-On bus interface. Transfers which are not
whole multiples of DWORDs in size result in a partial
word ending cycle. This partial word ending cycle is
possible since all bus master transfers for this control-
ler are required to begin on a DWORD boundary.

Under certain circumstances, MWTC can be accessed
from the Add-On bus instead of the PCI bus. See Add-
On Initiated Bus Mastering.
