21264/EV68A Hardware Reference Manual
Initialization and Configuration 7–5
Power-Up Reset Flow and the Reset_L and DCOK_H Pins
Table 7–3 summarizes the pins and the suggested/required initialization state. Most of
this information is supplied by placing (switch-selectable or hardwired) weak pull-ups
or pull-downs on the IRQ_H pins. The IRQ_H pins are sampled on the rising edge of
DCOK_H, during which time the 21264/EV68A is in reset and is not generating any
system activity. During normal operation, the IRQ_H pins supply interrupt requests to
the 21264/EV68A.
It is possible to disable the 21264/EV68A PLL and source GCLK directly from
ClkIn_x. This mode is selected via PllBypass_H. The 21264/EV68A still produces a
divided-down clock on EV6Clk_x; this output clock, which tracks GCLK, can be used
in a feedback loop to generate a locked input clock via an external PLL. The input
clock can be locked against a slower speed system reference clock.

divisor value. This is the divide-
down factor between GCLK and EV6Clk_x.
When the PLL is in use and the 21264/EV68A is
ramped-up to full speed, the VCO adjusts in
order to phase-align (and rate-match) EV6Clk_x
to ClkIn_x. When the PLL is not in use, and
ClkIn_x is bypassed onto GCLK, EV6Clk_x is
slower than ClkIn_x by the divisor Y
