starts driving AD[31:0] and C/BE[3:0] on clock 5.
FRAME is asserted at clock 5 indicating a valid ad-
dress and command on AD[31:0] and C/BE[3:0].
In burst mode, the deassertion of REQ depends on the
setting of EXTREQ (BCR18, bit 8). If EXTREQ is
cleared to 0, REQ is deasserted at the same time as
FRAME is asserted. (The Am79C973/Am79C975 con-
troller never performs more than one burst transaction
within a single bus mastership period.) If EXTREQ is
set to 1, the Am79C973/Am79C975 controller does not
deassert REQ until it starts the last data phase of the
transaction. Once asserted, REQ remains active until
GNT has become active and independent of subse-
quent setting of STOP (CSR0, bit 2) or SPND (CSR5,
bit 0). The assertion of H_RESET or S_RESET, how-
ever, will cause REQ to go inactive immediately.
Bus Master DMA Transfers
There are four primary types of DMA transfers. The
Am79C973/Am79C975 controller uses non-burst as
well as burst cycles for read and write access to the
main memory.
Basic Non-Burst Read Transfer
By default, the Am79C973/Am79C975 controller uses
non-burst cycles in all bus master read operations. All
Am79C973/Am79C975 controller non-burst read ac-
cesses are of the PCI
(type 6). Note that during a non-burst read operation,
all byte lanes will always be active. The Am79C973/
Am79C975 controller will internally discard unneeded
bytes.

Am79C973/Am79C975
The Am79C973/Am79C975 controller typically per-
forms more than one non-burst read transaction within
a single bus mastership period. FRAME is dropped be-
tween consecutive non-burst read cycles. REQ how-
ever stays asserted until FRAME is asserted for the last
transaction. The Am79C973/Am79C975 controller
supports zero wait state read cycles. It asserts IRDY
immediately after the address phase and at the same
time starts sampling DEVSEL. Figure 12 shows two
non-burst read transactions. The first transaction has
zero wait states. In the second transaction, the target
extends the cycle by asserting TRDY one clock later.
Basic Burst Read Transfer
The Am79C973/Am79C975 controller supports burst
mode for all bus master read operations. The burst
mode must be enabled by setting BREADE (BCR18, bit
6). To allow burst transfers in descriptor read opera-
tions, the Am79C973/Am79C975 controller must also
be programmed to use SWSTYLE 3 (BCR20, bits 7-0).
All burst read accesses to the initialization block and
descriptor ring are of the PCI command type Memory
Read (type 6). Burst read accesses to the transmit
buffer typically are longer than two data phases. When
MEMCMD (BCR18, bit 9) is cleared to 0, all burst read
accesses to the transmit buffer are of the PCI com-
mand type Memory Read Line (type 14). When MEM-
CMD (BCR18, bit 9) is set to1, all burst read accesses
to the transmit buffer are of the PCI command type
Memory Read Multiple (type 12). AD[1:0] will both be 0
during the address phase indicating a linear burst or-
der. Note that during a burst read operation, all byte

Am79C975 controller will internally discard unneeded
bytes.
The Am79C973/Am79C975 controller will always per-
form only a single burst read transaction per bus mas-
tership period, where transaction is defined as one
address phase and one or multiple data phases. The
Am79C973/Am79C975 controller supports zero wait
state read cycles. It asserts IRDY immediately after the
address phase and at the same time starts sampling
DEVSEL. FRAME is deasserted when the next to last
data phase is completed.
Figure 13 shows a typical burst read access. The
Am79C973/Am79C975 controller arbitrates for the bus,
is granted access, reads three 32-bit words (DWord)
from the system memory, and then releases the bus. In
the example, the memory system extends the data
phase of each access by one wait state. The example
assumes that EXTREQ (BCR18, bit 8) is cleared to 0,
therefore, REQ is deasserted in the same cycle as
FRAME is asserted.
