Sundance Technology ST201 PRELIMINARY draft 2
LATENCYTIMER
Class....................PCI Configuration Registers, Configuration
Base Address ......PCI device configuration header start
Address Offset.....0x0d
Access Mode.......Read/Write
Width ...................8 bits
This register specifies, in units of PCI bus clocks, the value of the latency timer for bus master operations.
The host system writes a value into LatencyTimer, which determines how long the ST201 may hold the
bus in the presence of other bus requestors. Whenever the ST201 asserts FRAMEN, the latency timer is
started. When the timer count expires, the ST201 must relinquish the bus as soon as its GNTN signal has
been negated. The granularity of the timer is 8 bus clocks.

7..3 LatencyTimer Indicates, in increments of 8 bus clocks, the length of time which the
ST201 may hold the PCI bus in the presence of other bus requestors.
