This document describes a Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) Support Interface (FSI) suited
|
|
to service all chips in a computer system via a common serial interface.
|
|
Key features are ease of use, easy scalability, robustness, and support for virtualization and
|
|
the tunneling of interrupts and DMA control signals across the interface.
|
|
FSI is superior to similar industry standard interfaces in these and many other features including speed, distance, data protection, and address range.
|
|
|
|
FSI is a point to point two wire interface operating in half duplex mode,
|
|
which is capable of supporting distances of up to 4 meters at up to 166 MHz bus frequency.
|
|
All operations are fully CRC checked to allow error recovery.
|
|
With its versatile architecture, the FSI is suited for a wide range of applications from service access to in-system test.
