Test Registers

The five test registers are used in testing the processor’s

Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) and on-chip cache. TR6

and TR7 are used for TLB testing, and TR3-TR5 are used

for cache testing. Table 3-14 is a register map for the Test

Registers with their bit definitions given in Tables 3-15 and

3-17.

TLB Test Registers

The processor’s TLB is a 32-entry, four-way set associa-

tive memory. Each TLB entry consists of a 24-bit tag and

20-bit data. The 24-bit tag represents the high-order 20

bits of the linear address, a valid bit, and three attribute

bits. The 20-bit data portion represents the upper 20 bits

of the physical address that corresponds to the linear

address.

The TLB Test Data Register (TR7) contains the upper 20

bits of the physical address (TLB data field), three LRU

bits and a control bit. During TLB write operations, the

physical address in TR7 is written into the TLB entry

selected by the contents of TR6. During TLB lookup oper-

ations, the TLB data selected by the contents of TR6 is

loaded into TR7. Table 3-15 lists the bit definitions for TR7

and TR6.

The TLB Test Control Register (TR6) contains a com-

mand bit, the upper 20 bits of a linear address, a valid bit

and the attribute bits used in the test operation. The con-

tents of TR6 are used to create the 24-bit TLB tag during

both write and read (TLB lookup) test operations. The

command bit defines whether the test operation is a read

or a write.
