7.18 Serial RapidIO (SRIO) Port
The SRIO ports on the C6472 device are high-performance, low-pin-count interconnects aimed for
embedded markets. The use of the RapidIO interconnect in a system board design can create a
homogeneous interconnect environment providing simple, high-throughput connectivity and control among
the devices. RapidIO is based on the memory and device addressing concepts of processor buses where
the transaction processing is managed completely by hardware. This enables the RapidIO interconnect to
lower the system cost by providing low latency, reduced overhead, packet data processing and high
system bandwidth. The RapidIO interconnect offers very-low-pin count interfaces with scalable system
bandwidth. The C6472 device contains two independent 1x lanes. The lanes can operate at 1.25, 2.5, or
3.135 Gbps.
The PHY part of the SRIO consists of the physical layer and includes the input and output buffers (each
serial link consists of a differential pair), the 8-bit/10-bit encoder/decoder, the PLL clock recovery, and the
parallel-to-serial/serial-to-parallel converters (SERDES).
The transmitter supports programmable output levels and de-emphasis settings. The receiver has
equalization that can be converged automatically or programmed statically.
7.18.1 Serial RapidIO Device-Specific Information
The approach to specifying interface timing for the SRIO Port is different than on other interfaces such as
HPI. For these other interfaces the device timing was specified in terms of data manual specifications and
I/O buffer information specification (IBIS) models.
For the C6472 SRIO Port, Texas Instruments (TI) provides a printed circuit board (PCB) solution showing
two DSPs connected via a 1x SRIO link directly to the user. TI has performed the simulation and system
characterization to ensure all SRIO interface timings in this solution are met. The complete SRIO system
solution is documented in the TMS320C6472/TMS320TCI6486 Serial RapidIO Implementation Guidelines
application report (literature number SPRAAT9).
TI only supports designs that follow the board design guidelines outlined in the SPRAAT9
application report.
The Serial RapidIO peripheral is a master peripheral in the C6472 DSP. It conforms to the RapidIO™
Interconnect Specification, Part VI: Physical Layer 1x/4x LP-Serial Specification, Revision 1.2. For more
information from an application perspective, see the TMS320C6472/TMS320TCI648x Serial RapidIO
(SRIO) User's Guide (literature number SPRUE13).
