Embedded ARM Core and System Support Logic

The processing elements of the CS22220 include the ARM7TDMI core and its associated

system control logic.

The ARM processor and system controller consists of a memory

management unit, 4-KB write through cache controller, 20 IRQ and 4 FIRQ interrupt

controller, and 2 general purpose timers. The ARM processor and integrated system

support logic provide the necessary execution engine to support a real time multi-tasking

operating system, the network protocol stack, and firmware services.

Memory Management Unit

ARM instructions and data are fetched from system memory a cache-line (4/8 – Dwords

/Programmable) at a time when caching is turned on. During a cache line fill, critical word

data, i.e., the access that caused the miss, is forwarded to the ARM and also written into

the data RAM cache. The non-critical words in the line fetched following the critical word

are then written to the cache on a Dword basis, as they become available.

Memory writes are posted to dual 4-Dwords (32-bit) memory write posting buffers. Write

posts use the sequential addressing feature on the memory bus. With dual buffering an out

of sequence write will post to one write buffer while the other buffer is flushed to memory.

There is one 8Dword Read Buffer in the MEM block. The buffer is used for both cacheable

and non-cacheable memory space.

Interrupt Controller

The interrupt controller provides two interrupt channels to the ARM processor.

One

interrupt channel is presented to the ARM on its nFIQ, and the other channel is presented

on its nIRQ pin. These are referred to as the FIQ channel and the IRQ channel. Both

channels operate in identical but independent fashion. The FIQ channel has a higher

priority on the ARM processor than the IRQ channel.

The interrupt controller includes a CONTROL register for each logical interrupt in the ARM

Complex. The CONTROL register serves the following main purposes:

•

Provides the mapping between the EXT_INT inputs (physical interrupts) and the logical

interrupt

•

Selects the particular type of signaling expected on the EXT_INT inputs: level, edge,

active level high/low etc.

•

Enable or disable a logical interrupt
