Introduction 1 This document describes the Intel 21152 PCI-to-PCI Bridge Evaluation Board (also referred to as the EB152). The EB152 is an evaluation and development board for systems based on the Intel 21152 PCI-to-PCI Bridge chip (the 21152). Intel’s 21152 is a second-generation PCI-to-PCI bridge and is fully compliant with the electrical and protocol requirements of the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification, Revision 2.1, and the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification, Revisi

Introduction • Supports four secondary 5 V PCI bus option card slots. • May be built with 3.3-V secondary PCI card slots. If you are interested in this option, call the Intel Information Line (see, Support, Products, and Documentation). • Supports an optional external secondary bus arbiter. • Supports multiple levels of PCI bus hierarchy 1.3 Major Components Figure 1-1 shows the major components on the EB152.

Introduction 1.4 Jumpers The EB152 provides 10 jumpers that can be used for debugging and for special evaluation tests. The jumpers can be used for monitoring CLK signals and 21152 secondary PCI signals. Additional optional jumpers control secondary bus arbitration. Table 1-1 shows the connections required to allow observation of these signals at scope pod connector pins. Table 1-1. Jumper Connections Jumper Description J1 This jumper monitors the following signals: p_clk (PCI clock) s_clk

Introduction 1.6 Typical Configurations The EB152 supports various PCI configurations with different types of devices. Figure 1-3 through Figure 1-6 show examples of PCI configurations. The primary bus connector attaches to a PCI slot on the motherboard of the host system or to a secondary PCI bus slot on another EB152. A 5-V or universal PCI option card, or another EB152, can be plugged into any one of the four secondary bus option card slots. Figure 1-3 shows the EB152 with one secondary bu

Installation 2.4 Installation Procedure Figure 1-1 illustrates the EB152 and shows the location of components referred to in this section. Install the EB152 as follows: 1. Power down the host system that will contain the EB152. 2. Place the motherboard with the associated support devices on a bench if mechanical constraints do not allow testing of the EB152 and the expansion slots inside the system box. 3. Configure your system as follows: a. Insert the card edge of the EB152 into a PCI slo

Interrupt Routing 3 This chapter describes the way in which interrupts are routed. This information is provided as a reference for designers. Because a total of 16 interrupts are connected to the secondary bus PCI slots (INTA#, INTB#, INTC#, and INTD# for each slot) and only four interrupts are driven to the card edge, the 16 incoming interrupts must be combined. This ORing of interrupts is performed in accordance with the PCI-to-PCI Bridge Architecture Specification. Table 3-1 shows the O

Secondary Bus Arbitration 4 This chapter describes the use of jumpers to test 21152 secondary bus arbitration, an optional programmable feature. For more detailed information about the 21152 arbiter, refer to the 21152 PCI-to-PCI Bridge Data Sheet. The EB152 has two secondary bus arbiter systems: • An internal arbiter implemented in the 21152 that supports four external masters in addition to the 21152 • An optional external arbiter implemented in an AMD MACH210A programmable device The d
