Features
GENERAL
The PM8389 SMC-L is a highly integrated MIPS-based processor with a set of storage system peripherals: internal memory, Two-wire Interface(TWI), Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART), General Purpose I/O (GPIO), Fan Control Ports, and expansion ports for additional memory and I/O expansion.
The device is optimized for storage system applications. A complete suite of firmware development tools and application programming interfaces are available to enable quick development of SCSI Enclosure Services (SES) or custom enclosure management applications.
INTEGRATED PROCESSOR FEATURES
- MIPS-based™ instruction set including 16e compressed instruction set for minimizing code space size.
- 53.125 Mhz to DC operation.
- 32-bit architecture with 5 Stagepipeline.
- Thirty-two 32-bit General Purpose Registers (GPR).
- Fixed mapping translation table.
|
- Extra set of shadow GPRs for improved interrupt processing latency.
- Separate 16 KB 4-way set associative instruction and data caches to support execution out of external slow memory.
- EJTAG debug interface supports single stepping, on-chip memory access, instruction and data
breakpoints.
- 64 KB on-chip scratch RAM for local code and data storage.
|
LOCAL BUS INTERFACE FEATURES
- Supports external I/O devices, RAM and Flash Memory.
- 4 programmable chip selects.
|
- 8/16-bit data bus with 21-bit address space for a total of 2 MB per chip select.
|
SERIAL INTERFACE FEATURES
- 4 multi-master two wire interfaces.
- 2 Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter (UART) interfaces.
|
- 4 Fan PWM/Tachometer interfaces.
|
GENERAL PURPOSE INPUT/OUTPUT (GPIO)
- Total of 53 individually programmable I/O pins (25 dedicated, 28 shared function).
- Each I/O may operate as an input, push/pull output or open-drain output.
|
- Programmable LED flash patterns.
- Configurable LED activity pattern based on external activity trigger.
|
TIMER AND INTERRUPT FEATURES
- Watchdog timer which resets processor upon timeout.
- 6 general purpose 32-bit timers for generating hardware timed events and interrupts.
- 4 external maskable, edge or level sensitive interrupt pins.
|
- 20 internal maskable interrupt signals for UART, TWI, GPIO, and Timer generated interrupts.
- Two 32-bit counters for generating patterns on select GPIOs.
|
