ATA CLOCK and LATCH are used to control the outputs of the voltage switch On TI s PCI12xx 14xx 44xx demo boards the CLOCK is configured as an output from the socket controller However in some implementations the CLOCK signal is externally generated and is an input to the PCI12xx socket controller A control bit in PCI configuration space address 80H called P2CCLK Bit 27 enables the voltage switch clock output CLOCK from the CardBus controller chip CLOCK is derived from the PCI clock In the original PCCtest software this bit was set to enable CLOCK as an output This was required for the PCI12xx 14xx demo boards Designs that have an externally generated CLOCK will see two sources driving the CLOCK signal when running the PCCtest software The latest version of the PCCtest 450 460 software supports either an externally or internally generated voltage switch clock CLOCK signal The user of the PCCtest software can specify this via a command line switch By adding a B suffix to the B6x switch the user specifies that the voltage switch clock is internally generated from the PCI clock Command line for external voltage switch clock TESTCB B65 v 0 Command line for internally generated voltage switch clock TESTCB B65B v 0 The following software revisions support this new scheme TESTCB EXE Version 2 04 and above PCT450 EXE Version 1 16 and above ZVTEST EXE Version 1 06 and above PCT270 EXE Version 1 53 and above PCT250
