Raven PCI Host Bridge & Multi-Processor Interrupt Controller

Functional Description
PPC Bus Interface
The PPC Bus Interface is designed to be coupled directly to up to two PPC
microprocessors as well as a memory/cache subsystem. It uses a subset of
the capabilities of the PPC bus protocol.
PPC Map Decoders
The Raven address decoders have been designed to be as flexible as
possible to provide a wide range of addressing possibilities. There are five
address map decoders in the Raven which determine the PPC bus
addresses to which the Raven will respond: the PPC Register File Decoder,
and four programmable decoders. Table 2-1 shows a typical CHRP
compliant memory map. (Another similar map is shown in Table 1-3.)
