Master Bus Interface Unit
The master Bus Interface Unit (BIU) controls the acqui-
sition of the PCI bus and all accesses to the initializa-
tion block, descriptor rings, and the receive and
transmit buffer memory. Table 7 shows the usage of
PCI commands by the Am79C978 controller in master
mode.

Bus Acquisition
The microcode will determine when a DMA transfer
should be initiated. The first step in any bus master
transfer is to acquire ownership of the bus. This task is
handled by synchronous logic within the BIU. Bus own-
ership is requested with the REQ signal and ownership
is granted by the arbiter through the GNT signal.
Figure 13 shows the Am79C978 controller bus acquisi-
tion. REQ is asserted and the arbiter returns GNT while
ano ther bu s m ast er is tra ns fer ri ng d ata. Th e
Am79C978 controller waits until the bus is idle
(FRAME and IRDY deasserted) before it starts driving
AD[31:0] and C/BE[3:0] on clock 5. FRAME is asserted
at clock 5 indicating a valid address and command on
AD[31:0] and C/BE[3:0]. The Am79C978 controller
does not use address stepping which is reflected by
