System Design Information
There is no standardized way to number the COP header shown in
Figure 22; consequently, many different
pin numbers have been observed from emulator vendors. Some are numbered top-to-bottom then left-to-
right, while others use left-to-right then top-to-bottom, while still others number the pins counter clockwise
from pin one (as with an IC). Regardless of the numbering, the signal placement recommended in
Figure22 is common to all known emulators.
The QACK signal shown in
Table 17 is usually hooked up to the PCI bridge chip in a system and is an input
to the MPC7400 informing it that it can go into the quiescent state. Under normal operation this occurs
during a low power mode selection. In order for COP to work the MPC7400 must see this signal asserted
(pulled down). While shown on the COP header, not all emulator products drive this signal. To preserve
correct power down operation, QACK should be merged so that it also can be driven by the PCI bridge.
1.8.9 Thermal Management Information
This section provides thermal management information for the ceramic ball grid array (CBGA) package for
air-cooled applications. Proper thermal control design is primarily dependent upon the system-level
design—the heat sink, airow and thermal interface material. To reduce the die-junction temperature, heat
sinks may be attached to the package by several methods—adhesive, spring clip to holes in the printed-
circuit board or package, and mounting clip and screw assembly; see
Figure 23. This spring force should
not exceed 5.5 pounds of force.
