-CPU module revisions
---------------------
-
-My cpu module has the model number "CMA286-60-990526-01". My motherboard
-has the model number "CMA102-32M-990526-01". These are both fairly old,
-and may not reflect current design. In particular, I can see from the
-Cogent web site that the CMA286 has been significantly redesigned - it
-now has on board RAM (4M), ethernet 10baseT PHY (on SCC2), 2 serial ports
-(SMC1 and SMC2), and 48pin DIN for the FEC (if present i.e. MPC860T), and
-also the EPROM is 512K.
-
-My CMA286-60 has none of this, and only 128K EPROM. In addition, the CPU
-clock is listed as 66MHz, whereas mine is 33.333MHz.

-------
-
-Quote from my "CMA286 MPC860/821 User's Manual":
-
-"When setting up the Periodic Interrupt Timer (PIT), be aware that the
-CMA286 places the MPC860/821 in PLL X1 Mode. This means that we feed
-a 25MHz clock directly into the MPC860/821. This mode sets the divisor
-for the PIT to be 512. In addition, the Time Base Register (TMB)
-divisor is set to 16."
-
-I interpreted this information to mean that EXTCLK is 25MHz and that at
-power on reset, MODCK1=1 and MODCK2=0, which selects EXTCLK as the
-source for OSCCLK and PITRTCLK, sets RTDIV to 512 and sets MF (the
-multiplication factor) to 1 (I assume this is what they mean by X1
-mode above). MF=1 means the cpus internal clock runs at the same
-rate as EXTCLK i.e. 25MHz.
-
-Furthermore, since SCCR[TBS] (the Time Base Source selector bit in the
-System Clock and Reset Control register) is set in the cpu initialisation
-code, the TMBCLK source is forced to be GCLK2 and the TMBCLK prescale is
-forced to be 16. This results in TMBCLK=1562500.
-
-One problem - since PITRTCLK source is EXTCLK (25Mhz) and RTDIV is 512,
-PITRTCLK will be 48828.125 (huh?). Another quote from the MPC860 Users
-Manual:
-
-"When used by the real-time clock (RTC), the PITRTCLK source is first
-divided as determined by RTDIV, and then divided in the RTC circuits by
-either 8192 or 9600. Therefore, in order for the RTC to count in
-seconds, the clock source must satisfy:
-
- (EXTCLK or OSCM) / [(4 or 512) x (8192 or 9600)] = 1
-
-The RTC will operate with other frequencies, but it will not count in
-units of seconds."
-
-Therefore, the internal RTC of the MPC860 is not going to count in
-seconds, so we must use the motherboard RTC (if we need a RTC).
-
-I presume this means that they do not provide a fixed oscillator for
-OSCM. The code in get_gclk_freq() assumes PITRTCLK source is OSCM,
-RTDIV is 4, and that OSCM/4 is 8192 (i.e. a ~32KHz oscillator). Since
-the CMA286-60 doesn't have this (at least mine doesn't) we can't use
-the code in get_gclk_freq().
-
-Finally, it appears that the internal clock in my CMA286-60 is actually
-33.333MHz. Which makes TMBCLK=2083312.5 (another huh?) and
-PITRTCLK=65103.515625 (bloody hell!).
-
-If anyone finds anything wrong with the stuff above, I would appreciate
-an email about it.
