B.2 Calibration Bus
The calibration bus is made up of address bus, data bus, bus control and clock signals. The calibration bus 
is used by tools that include memory for calibration data or other code in development. Refer to Table B-1 
for calibration bus signals. A 16-bit data bus and 19-bit address bus gives a basic addressing range of 
1 MB. Alternatively, the maximum memory addressable using just one chip select is four MB. 
Refer to Table B-2.
The VertiCal connector supports up to 4 chip select signals, although the actual number of chip selects 
available depends on the device and package. Use the CAL_CS[0] chip select as the default calibration 
chip select to ensure maximum portability of calibration tools across devices. The four calibration chip 
select signals CAL_CS[0:3] are configured and function like the external chip select signals CS[0:3], 
except the calibration chip selects have a higher priority in address decoding than the external chip selects, 
CS[0:3]. Refer to Section B.8, “Application Information,” for application information on the number of 
calibration chip selects. 
The CAL_CS[0:3] chip selects have multiplexed signal functions to provide additional addressing bits that 
allows the flexibility of increasing the addressing range or the number of chip selects. The calibration 
functionality provides a calibration bus with pads that are in addition to the pads for the 416 pin package 
part. Therefore, the calibration functionality does not use any I/O available in the 416 pin production 
package for a calibration bus interface.
The P/A/G column in the following table differentiates each signal function that is multiplexed to the same 
pin assignment. The P/A/G value is set in the PA field of the SIU_PCR registers and determines which 
multiplexed signal function controls the pin. For more information on how to set the PA field, read the 
Signals Chapter.
