1. Description
The AT7911E provides an interface between three SpaceWire links according to the
SpaceWire standard ECSS-E-50-12A specification and a data processing node consist-
ing of a Control Processing Unit and a communication data memory.
The AT7911E was designed by EADS Astrium in Germany under the name
'SMCS332SpW" for "Scalable Multi-channel Communication Subsystem for
SpaceWire". It is manufactured using the SEU hardened cell library from Atmel MG2RT
CMOS 0.5µm radiation tolerant sea of gates technology.
For any technical question relative to the functionality of the AT7911E please contact
Atmel technical support at assp-applab.hotline@nto.atmel.com.
This document shall be read in conjunction with EADS Astrium 'SMCS332SpW User
Manual'. The complete user manual of the AT7911E also called SMCS332SpW is avail-
able at www.atmel.com.
The AT7911E provides hardware supported execution of the major parts of the interpro-
cessor communication protocol, particularly:
Transfer of data between two nodes of a multi-processor system with minimal host
CPU intervention
Execution of simple commands to provide basic features for system control
functions
Provision of fault tolerant features.
Target applications are heterogeneous multi-processor systems supported by scalable
interfaces including the little/big endian byte swapping. The AT7911E connects modules
with different processors (e.g. TSC695F, AT697E and others). Any kind of network
topology could be realized through the high speed point-to-point SpaceWire links (see
the section ‘Applications’).
It can also be used for modules without any communication features such as special
image compression chips, some signal processors, application specific programmable
logic or mass memory.
The AT7911E may also be used in single board systems where standardised high
speed interfaces are needed and systems containing "non-intelligent" modules such as
A/D-converter or sensor interfaces which can be assembled with the AT7911E thanks to
the "control by link" feature.

The AT7911E is supported by VSPWorks from Wind River, a commercially available
distributed real-time kernel. It is a multi-tasking as well as a multi-processor Operating
System. The main goals are to enable programming at a higher level to configure and to
perform communication and to administer the tasks on a board with multiple processes
running in parallel.
The VSPWorks kernel supports multiple processors and application specific chips, e.g.
the TSC21020, the Sparc TSC695F, the AT697 etc.... Thus it is possible to run a heter-
ogeneous multiprocessor system with a single Operating System without consideration
of the hardware platform.

4. Interfaces
The AT7911E provides an interface between three SpaceWire links according to the
SpaceWire standard ECSS-E-50-12A specification and a data processing node consist-
ing of a Central Processing Unit and a communication data memory.
The AT7911E consists of the following blocks (See Figure 1):
Three bidirectional SpaceWire channels
Communication Memory Interface (COMI)
Host Control Interface (HOCI)
Protocol Command Interface (PRCI)
JTAG Test Interface
4.1 Three bidirectional SpaceWire channels,
Three bidirectional SpaceWire channels,
all comprising the DS-link SpaceWire cell,
receive and transmit sections (each including FIFOs) and a protocol processing unit
(PPU). Each channel allows full duplex communication up to 200 Mbit/s in each direc-
tion. With protocol command execution a higher level of communication is supported.
Link disconnect detection and parity check at character level are performed. A check-
sum generation for a check at packet level can be enabled.
The transmit rate is selectable between 1.25 and 200 Mbit/s. The startup transmit rate is
10 Mbit/s. For special applications the data transmit rate can be programmed to values
even below 10 Mbit/s; the lowest possible SpaceWire transmit rate is 1.25 Mbit/s (the
next values are 2.5 and 5 Mbit/s).
4.1.1 PPU Functional Description
Since the Protocol Processing Unit (PPU) determines a major part of the AT7911E func-
tionality, the principal blocks of the PPU and their function are described here. The PPU
unit functionality is provided for each SpaceWire channel of the AT7911E.
4.1.1.1 Protocol Execution Unit
This unit serves as the main controller of the PPU block. It receives the character from
the SpaceWire cell and interprets (in protocol mode) the four header data characters
received after an EOP control character. If the address field matches the link channel
address and the command field contains a valid command then forwarding of data into
the receive FIFO is enabled. If the command field contains a "simple control command"
then the execution request is forwarded to the command execution unit.
The protocol execution unit also enables forwarding of header data characters to the
acknowledge generator and provides an error signal in case of address mismatch,
wrong commands or disabled safety critical "simple control commands".
The protocol execution unit is disabled in "transparent" or wormhole routing” operation
mode.
4.1.1.2 Receive, Transmit, Acknowledge
The transmit and receive FIFOs decouple the SpaceWire link related operations from
the AT7911E related operations in all modes and such allows to keep the speed of the
different units even when the source or sink of data is temporarily blocked.
8
7737A–AERO–07/07
In the protocol mode an additional FIFO (acknowledge FIFO) is used to decouple send-
ing of acknowledges from receiving new data when the transmit path is currently
occupied by a running packet transmission.
4.1.1.3 Command Execution Unit
This unit performs activating resp. deactivating of the CPU reset and the specific exter-
nal signals and provides the capability to reset one or all links inside the AT7911E, all
actions requested by the decoded commands from the protocol execution unit.
The unit contains a register controlling the enable/disable state of safety critical com-
mands which is set into the 'enable' state upon command request and which is reset
after a safety critical command has been executed.
The CPU reset and the specific external signals are forwarded to the Protocol Com-
mand Interface (PRCI).
4.2 Communication Memory Interface (COMI)
The COMI performs autonomous accesses to the communication memory of the mod-
ule to store data received via the links or to read data to be transmitted via the links. The
COMI consists of individual memory address generators for the receive and transmit
direction of every SpaceWire link channel. The access to the memory is controlled via
an arbitration unit providing a fair arbitration scheme. Two AT7911E can share one
DPRAM without external arbitration logic.
The data bus width is scalable (8/16/32 bit) to allow flexible integration with any CPU
type.
Operation in little or big endian mode is configurable through internal registers.
The COMI address bus is 16 bit wide allowing direct access of up to 64K words (32 bits)
of the DPRAM. Two chip select signals are provided to allow splitting of the 64k address
space in two memory banks.
4.3 Host Control Interface (HOCI)
The HOCI gives read and write access to the AT7911E configuration registers and to
the SpaceWire channels for the controlling CPU. Viewed from the CPU, the interface
behaves like a peripheral that generates acknowledges to synchronize the data trans-
fers and which is located somewhere in the CPU's address space.
Packets can be transmitted or received directly via the HOCI. In this case the Communi-
cation Memory (DPRAM) is not strictly needed. However, in this case the packet size
should be limited to avoid frequent CPU interaction.
The data bus width is scalable (8/16/32 bit) to allow flexible integration with any CPU
type. The byte alignment can be configured for little or big endian mode through an
external pin.
Additionally, the HOCI contains the interrupt signalling capability of the AT7911E by pro-
viding an interrupt output, the interrupt status register and interrupt mask register to the
local CPU.
A special pin is provided to select between control of the AT7911E by HOCI or by link. If
control by link is enabled, the host data bus functions as a 32-bit general purpose inter-
face (GPIO).
9
7737A–AERO–07/07
4.4 Protocol Command Interface (PRCI)
The PRCI collects the decoded commands from all PPUs and forwards them to external
circuitry via 5 special pins.
4.5 JTAG Test Interface
It represents the boundary scan testing provisions specified by IEEE Standard 1149.1 of
the Joint Testing Action Group (JTAG). The AT7911E test access port and on-chip cir-
cuitry is fully compliant with the IEEE 1149.1 specification. The test access port enables
boundary scan testing of circuitry connected to the AT7911E I/O pins.
10
7737A–AERO–07/07
5. Control Interface
The AT7911E can be configured/controled through two interfaces:
HOCI interface
Link control interface
5.1 HOCI interface
The HOst Control Interface is especialy designed for access to internal AT6911E regis-
ters by a local controller (µController, FPGA etc.).
The detailed description of this operation mode can be found in the section 5.4 of the
'SMCS332SpW User Manual'.
5.2 Link control interface
Link control is the feature of the AT7911E that allows the control of the AT7911E not
only via HOCI but via one of the three links. This allows to use the AT7911E in systems
without a local controller. Since the HOCI is no longer used in this operation mode, it is
instead available as a set of general purpose I/O (GPIO) lines.
The detailed description of this operation mode can be found in the section 5.4 of the
'SMCS332SpW User Manual'.
11
7737A–AERO–07/07
6. Operating Modes
According to the different protocol formats expected for the operation of the AT7911E,
two major operation modes are implemented into the AT7911E. For each link channel
the operation modes are chosen individually by setting the respective configuration reg-
isters via the HOCI or via the link.
6.1 Simple Interprocessor Communication (SIC) Protocol Mode
This mode executes the simple interprocessor communication protocol as described in
the chapter 13 of the 'SMCS332SpW User Manual'.
The following capabilities of the protocol are implemented into the AT7911E:
Interpretation of the first 4 data characters as the header bytes of the protocol
Autonomous execution of the simple control commands as described in the above
mentioned chapter
Autonomous acknowledgement of received packets if configured
In transmit direction no interpretation of the data is performed. This means that for trans-
mit packets, the four header bytes must be generated by the host CPU and must be
available as the first data read from the communication memory. EOP control charac-
ters are automatically inserted by the AT7911E when one configured transfer from the
communication memory has finished.
6.2 Transparent Mode (default after reset)
This mode allows complete transparent data transfer between two nodes without per-
forming any interpretation of the databytes and without generating any acknowledges. It
is completely up to the host CPU to interpret the received data and to generate acknowl-
edges if required.
The AT7911E accepts EOP and EEP control tokens as packet delimiters and generates
autonomously EOP or no EOP (as configured) marker after each end of a transmission
packet.
The transparent mode includes as a special submode: Wormhole routing.
6.2.1 Wormhole routing
This mode allows hardware routing of packets by the AT7911E. It is a submode of the
transparent mode. The AT7911E introduces a wormhole routing function similar to the
routing implemented in the SpaceWire router. Each of the three links and the AT7911E
itself can be assigned an eight bit address. When routing is enabled in the AT7911E, the
first byte of a packet will be interpreted as the address destination byte, analysed and
removed from the packet (header deletion). If this address matches one of the two other
link addresses or the AT7911E address assigned previously, the packet will be automat-
ically forwarded to this link or the FIFO of the AT7911E. If the header byte does not
match a link address, the packet will be written to the internal FIFO as well and an error
interrupt (maskable) will be raised.
12
7737A–AERO–07/07
7. Fault Tolerance
The SpaceWire standard specifies low level checks as link disconnect, credit value,
sequence and parity at token level. The AT7911E provides, through the Protocol Pro-
cessing Unit, features to reset a link or all links inside the AT7911E, to reset the local
CPU or to send special signals to the CPU commanded via the links.
Additionally it is possible to enable a checksum coder/decoder to have fault detection
capabilities at packet level.
13
7737A–AERO–07/07
8. Typical Applications
The AT7911E can be used for single board systems where standardised high speed
interfaces are needed. Even "non-intelligent" modules such as A/D-converter or sensor
interfaces can be assembled with the AT7911E because of the "control by link" feature.
The complete control of the AT7911E can be done via link from a central controller-
node.
The AT7911E is a very high speed, scalable link-interface chip with fault tolerance fea-
tures. The initial exploitation is for use in multi-processor systems where the
standardization or the high speed of the links is an important issue and where reliability
is a requirement. Further application examples are heterogeneous systems or modules
without any communication features as special image compression chips, certain signal
processors, application specific programmable logic or mass memory.

cal module environment:

8.1 AT7911E connected with the TSS901E (or SMCS332)
The new ECSS-E-50-12A SpaceWire standard, used by the AT7911E and the IEEE-
1355 standard used by the old TSS901E are compatible, however the TSS901E has a
slightly different startup behavior, the TSS901E must be started first on a link connecting
with the AT7911E.
8.2 AT7911E differences with the TSS901E (or SMCS332)
A few differences between the AT7911E and the TSS901E exist in the registers and in
the pinout. These differences are detailed in the section 14 of the ‘SMCS332SpW User
Manual”.
8.3 Handling empty packets
An anomaly due to the SpaceWire codec implemented in the AT7911E affect the behav-
ior of the AT7911E when receiving empty packets. The description of this anomaly and
the possible workaround are given in the section 12 of the SMCS332SpW User
Manual”.

7737A–AERO–07/07
9. PLL Filter
The AT7911E embeds a PLL to generate its internal clock reference. The PLLOUT pin
of the PLL is the output of the AT7911E that allows connection of the external filter of the
PLL. The following figure presents the connection of the PLL filter.
Figure 9-1. PLL filter
Table 9-1. PLL filter recommended components
10. Power Supply
To achieve its fast cycle time, the AT7911E is designed with high speed drivers on out-
put pins. Large peak currents may pass through a circuit board’s ground and power
lines, especially when many output drivers are simultaneously charging or discharging
their load capacitances. These transient currents can cause disturbances on the power
and ground lines. To minimize these effects, the AT7911E provides separate supply
pins for its internal logic and for its external drivers.
All GND pins should have a low impedance path to ground. A ground plane is required
in AT7911E systems to reduce this impedance, minimizing noise.
The VCC pins should be bypassed to the ground plane using approximately 10 high-fre-
quency capacitors (0.1 F ceramic). Keep each capacitor’s lead and trace length to the
pins as short as possible. This low inductive path provides the AT7911E with the peak
currents required when its output drivers switch. The capacitorsground leads should

return path for the load capacitance of the AT7911E output drivers.
