V360EPC provides the highest performance,
most flexible, and most economical method to
directly connect i960Cx/Hx or AMD2930/40
processors to the PCI bus. As a generic solution
for 32-bit de-multiplexed local bus applications,
V360EPC is also a suitable candidate for a
variety of high-performance applications based
on Motorola, IBM, DEC and Hitachi embedded
processors - where a minimal amount of glue
logic is needed.
V360EPC is the second generation of V3's I

ready PCI bridges - fully backward compatible
with V962PBC and V292PBC Rev B2 devices -
and is supporting powerful features like Hot
Swap and DMA chaining. The PCI bus can be
run at full 33MHz, independent of local bus clock
rate. The overall throughput of the system is
dramatically improved by increasing the FIFO

Access to the PCI bus can be performed through
two programmable address apertures. Two more
apertures are provided for PCI-to-local bus
accesses. There are 64-bytes of read FIFOs in
each direction, 32-bytes dedicated for each
aperture.
Two high-performance DMA channels with
chaining and demand mode capabilities provide
a powerful data transfer engine for bulk data
transfers. Mailbox registers and flexible PCI
interrupt controllers are also included to provide
a simple mechanism to emulate PCI device
control ports. The part is available in 160-pin low
cost PQFP packages.

Test Mode Pins
Several device pins are used during manufacturing test to put the V360EPC device into various test
modes.
These pins must be maintained at proper levels during reset to insure proper operation.
This is typically handled through pull-up or pull-down resistors (typically 1K to 10K) on the signal pins if
they are not guaranteed to be at the proper level during reset. Table 4 below shows the reset states for
test mode pins:
