7.3 Command Register
The command register provides control over the PCI6x21/PCI6x11 interface to the PCI bus. All bit functions adhere
to the definitions in the PCI Local Bus Specification, as seen in the following bit descriptions. See Table 7−2 for a
complete description of the register contents.

FIELD NAME

TYPE
R
DESCRIPTION
Reserved. Bits 15−11 return 0s when read.
INT_DISABLE
RW
INTx disable. When set to 1, this bit disables the function from asserting interrupts on the INTx signals.
0 = INTx assertion is enabled (default)
1 = INTx assertion is disabled

R
Fast back-to-back enable. The flash media interface does not generate fast back-to-back transactions;
therefore, bit 9 returns 0 when read.
SERR enable. When bit 8 is set to 1, the flash media interface SERR driver is enabled. SERR can be
asserted after detecting an address parity error on the PCI bus.
Address/data stepping control. The flash media interface does not support address/data stepping;
therefore, bit 7 is hardwired to 0.
RW
R
Parity error enable. When bit 6 is set to 1, the flash media interface is enabled to drive PERR response
to parity errors through the PERR signal.
VGA palette snoop enable. The flash media interface does not feature VGA palette snooping;
therefore, bit 5 returns 0 when read.
MWI_ENB
RW
R
Memory write and invalidate enable. The flash media controller does not generate memory write
invalidate transactions; therefore, bit 4 returns 0 when read.
SPECIAL
Special cycle enable. The flash media interface does not respond to special cycle transactions;
therefore, bit 3 returns 0 when read.
MASTER_ENB
MEMORY_ENB
IO_ENB
RW
RW
R
Bus master enable. When bit 2 is set to 1, the flash media interface is enabled to initiate cycles on the
PCI bus.
Memory response enable. Setting bit 1 to 1 enables the flash media interface to respond to memory
cycles on the PCI bus.
I/O space enable. The flash media interface does not implement any I/O-mapped functionality;
therefore, bit 0 returns 0 when read.
