CSI Bus Socket

Synchronous, timing-friendly interface
to user-programmable peripherals

  • Processor-independent, "soft" peripherals can be re-used with future Triscend Configurable System-on-Chips (or other CSI Socket-compatible chips)
  • Integrated address selectors provide address decoding and chip select functions
  • Separate data read and write busses
  • Address bus available (but use address selectors for decoding)
  • DMA Request and Acknowledge steered to appropriate DMA channel
  • Wait state monitor and control signals to throttle data transfers
  • Breakpoint monitor and control
