Notes:
1. Revisions prior to Rev. 2.8 (Rev. E) were limited in performance and did not conform to this specification. For more
information, refer to Section 1.10.2, “Part Numbers Not Fully Addressed by This Document.”
2. Guaranteed by design and characterization.
3. t
sysclk
is the period of the external clock (SYSCLK) in ns. The numbers given in the table must be multiplied by the
period of SYSCLK to compute the actual time duration (in ns) of the parameter in question.
4. Per the 60x bus protocol, TS, ABB, and DBB are driven only by the currently active bus master. They are asserted
low, then precharged high before returning to high-Z as shown in Figure 6. The nominal precharge width for TS,
ABB, or DBB is 0.5
×
t
sysclk
, i.e., less than the minimum t
sysclk
period, to ensure that another master asserting TS,
ABB, or DBB on the following clock will not contend with the precharge. Output valid and output hold timing is
tested for the signal asserted. Output valid time is tested for precharge. The high-Z behavior is guaranteed by
design.
5. Per the 60x bus protocol, ARTRY can be driven by multiple bus masters through the clock period immediately
following AACK. Bus contention is not an issue since any master asserting ARTRY will be driving it low. Any
master asserting it low in the first clock following AACK will then go to high-Z for one clock before precharging it
high during the second cycle after the assertion of AACK. The nominal precharge width for ARTRY is 1.0 t
sysclk
;
i.e., it should be high-Z as shown in Figure 6 before the first opportunity for another master to assert ARTRY.
Output valid and output hold timing is tested for the signal asserted. Output valid time is tested for precharge. The
high-Z and precharge behavior is guaranteed by design.
6. MCP and SRESET must be held asserted for a minimum of two bus clock cycles; INT and SMI should be held
asserted until the exception is taken; CKSTP_IN must be held asserted until the system has been reset. See the
MPC750 RISC Microprocessor Family User’s Manual
for more information.
