C139A core implements link layer controller high-speed, highbandwidth serial known commercially FireWireand i.LinkTM. core conforms IEEE 1394-1995 1394a-2000 specifications. similar popular Texas Instruments TSB12LV32 General Purpose Link Layer Controller, includes 32-bit interface easy connection with AMBAbus host system. (AHB other standard interfaces also available.) C1394A interface with 1394-compliant physical layer (PHY) device, includes easy-to-apply C-language software functions basic operations (options provide serial management transaction layer). FPGAproven been exercised FireWire video camera demonstration system. ASIC results show require less than 39,000 gates. C1394A testable, microcode-free design developed reuse ASICs FPGAs. fully synchronous internal three-state buses. complete verification environment helps designers verify functioning compliance core, additional aids system -on-chip simulation available.

host cannot transmit isochronous packets. DMDR Data Mover with Data Router Supervises dataflow connected device organizes data into packets. Independently supplies receives data processor interface isochronous asynchronous packets. transmitting, gets packets from feeds this data into LinkCore. receiving, gets packets from LinkCore feeds them into GRF. DMDR configured receive type data traffic limited filtering feature. (This allows core check additional user fields data headers decide whether packet should GRF). Once host processor configures DMDR handle data transmissions independent that processor, notifying only when error detected. DMDR's design also makes straightforward application-specific modules that cooperate with DMDR, such digital camera interface. LinkCore Responsible executing low-level transmissions time-critical operations. This includes calculation checking, observing generating protocol events, checking generating acknowledge signals. Link2PHY interface between LinkCore external Physical Layer (PHY). core satisfies Annex standard operate with physical layer device compliant with IEEE 1394-1995 1394a-2000 regulations. Software dedicated software included with core supports basic operation. Optional software available provide IEEE-1394a Transaction Layer Serial Management (SBM) function. C1394A software written readily ported processor.
