3 S1D13506 Host Bus Interface
The S1D13506 directly supports multiple processors. The S1D13506 implements a 16-bit
MIPS/ISA Host Bus Interface which is most suitable for direct connection to the
VR4102/VR4111 microprocessor.
The MIPS/ISA Host Bus Interface is selected by the S1D13506 on the rising edge of
RESET#. After releasing reset the bus interface signals assume their selected configuration.
For details on S1D13506 configuration, see Section 4.2, “S1D13506 Hardware Configu-
ration” on page 13.
Note
At reset, the Register/Memory Select bit in the Miscellaneous Register (REG[001h] bit
7) is set to 1. This means that only REG[000h] (read-only) and REG[001h] are
accessible until a write to REG[001h] sets bit 7 to 0 making all registers accessible.
When debugging a new hardware design, this can sometimes give the appearance that
the interface is not working, so it is important to remember to clear this bit before
proceeding with debugging.
