Hi,
I am designing a VME slave board for an old VMEbus chassis. Funds are limited, so I am evaluating the use of Beaglebone or other simple board for the job. I am interested in using the Sitara's PRU for speed.
Question:
Can Sitara's PRU be used to read and write data on a 16-bit data bus? My board will be a bus slave (not master), so I need to decode a 16-bit address bus and either write data to the data bus or read from it based on the bus cycle. When the data transfer is complete, the PRU needs to assert DTACK to signal the master that it has finished. When the bus cycle is complete, the PRU needs to release the data bus to allow other devices to use it.
Thanks,
Adnan Khan
