MU9C RCP Family
General Description
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
result of the comparison, the MU9C RCP generates an
index that is used to access an external RAM where port
mapping data and other associated information is stored.
A set of control states provides a powerful and flexible
control interface to the MU9C RCP. This control structure
allows memory read and write, register read and write,
data move, comparison, validity control, addressing
control, and initialization operations.
The MU9C RCP architecture uses direct hardware control
of the device and an independent bus for returning match
results. Software control is also supported for systems
where maximum performance is not required.
The MU9C RCP family consists of 4K, 8K, 16K, 24K,
and 32K x 64-bit Routing Co-Processors (RCP’s) with a
32-bit wide data interface and a 32-bit ternary compare
instruction. The device is designed for use in layer 3
switches, routers, and layer 2 switches to provide very
high throughput address translation using tables held in
external RAM. The MU9C RCP has a fully deterministic
search time, independent of the size of the list and the
position of the data in the list. This unique feature
guarantees that the wire speed address recognition does
not impact the latency or induce jitter on the latency of the
global system. Address fields from the packet header are
compared against a list of entries stored in the array. As a
OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW
DQ bus data are used as both the comparand and compare
mask bits 63-32. As a result, this instruction matches a DQ
bit of 0 with bit pairs storing both 0 and X, and a DQ bit of
1 matches bit pairs storing both 1 and X.
The MU9C RCP is designed to act as an address translator
for lookup tables in layer 3 switches, routers, and layer 2
switches. Refer to Figure 2 for a simplified block diagram
of a switch. During normal operation, the controller
extracts the address information from an arriving packet to
form the comparand, which is then compared against the
contents of the MU9C RCP. The MU9C RCP generates an
index that is used to access the data in an external RAM,
which holds the destination port for accessing the network.
The controller reads the data from the RAM and forwards
the packet.
IPv4 CIDR addresses are prioritized by placing their
ternary-encoded values into the MU9C RCP memory such
that entries with longer netmasks (longer matches) have
higher priority (lower indices). Thus, when the MU9C
RCP performs a ternary comparison, it will return the
index of the longest matching entry. Typically, the system
is initialized by a processor that writes routing table
information into the MU9C RCP. The index at which a
write takes place is driven onto the PA:AA bus, so that
output port data can be written simultaneously into the
external RAM at the correct index.
A unique feature of the MU9C RCP is its ternary
comparison that processes IPv4 CIDR addresses in a
single cycle. The bits of each MU9C RCP word are paired,
such that each pair can contain two binary values (0,1) or
one ternary (0,1,X= "Don't Care") value. A ternary value
uses two bits, pairing bit n from the first 32 bits (31-0)
with bit n+32. When storing a ternary 0 or 1, the value to
be stored is written into bit n (0<=n<=31), and the
complement of the value is written to bit n+32. Thus, a
ternary 0 written to ternary pair 7 would consist of a 0
stored in bit 7 and a 1 stored in bit 39. When storing a
ternary X, 0 is written to both bits in the pair.
The validity of a location in the Address Database is
determined by an extra bit called the Validity bit. This bit
is set and reset either with an index or an associative
match. Therefore, when a new entry is written to the
database, its Validity bit is set valid.
When a database location is deleted, the Validity bit for
that entry is reset, and the index of the location is driven
onto the Active Address bus. This simple mechanism
allows easy maintenance of the tables in both the database
and the external RAM.
Using bit pairs that are 32 bits apart simplifies the
computation of the pair by a processor. Assume that the
ternary value we wish to store is contained in two 32-bit
processor words. Word A contains the value to be stored
and word M contains a mask value, with a 0 in each
position at which an X is to be stored. The value to be
written to bits 31-0 of the MU9C RCP is (A&M) and the
value to be written to bits 63-32 of the MU9C RCP is
(~A&M).
The MU9C RCP supports simple daisy chained vertical
cascading that serves to prioritize multiple devices and
provides system-level match and full indication. If the
slight timing overhead associated with the daisy chain is
not acceptable, the MU9C RCP is designed to facilitate
external prioritization across multiple devices.
For layer 2 applications, the MAC addresses are processed
in a binary mode, and the MU9C RCP looks for an exact
match. An MU9C RCP can be used to process both MAC
addresses and IPv4 CIDR in the same device.
A special instruction, CMPT DQ, performs the ternary
comparison processing for IPv4 CIDR addresses. The data
on the DQ bus are used directly as both the comparand and
compare mask bits 31-0, and the one's complement of the

PIN DESCRIPTIONS
Note: Signal names that start with a slash ("/") are active LOW. All signals are 3.3V CMOS level. Never leave inputs floating. The CAM
architecture draws substantial currents during compare operations, mandating the use of good layout and bypassing techniques. Refer
to the Electrical Characteristics section for more information.
DQ31-0 (Data Bus, Three-state, Common
Input/ Output)
DSC (Data Segment Control, Input)
When DQ bus access to a 64 bit register or memory word
is performed, the DSC input determines whether bits 31-0
(DSC LOW) or bits 63-32 (DSC HIGH) are accessed.
Access to 32 bit registers require that DSC be held LOW.
The DQ31-0 lines convey data to and from the MU9C
RCP. When the /E input is HIGH the DQ31-0 lines are
held in their high-impedance state. The /W input determines whether data flows to or from the device on the
DQ31-0 lines. The source or destination of the data is
determined by the AC bus, DSC, and the /AV line. During
a Write cycle, data on the DQ31-0 lines is registered by the
falling edge of /E.
AA12-0/AA11-0 (Active Address, Output)
The AA bus conveys the Match address, the Next Free
address, or Random Access address, depending on the
most recent memory cycle. The /OE input enables the AA
bus; when the /OE input is HIGH, the AA bus is in its
high-impedance state; when /OE is LOW the AA bus is
active. In a vertically cascaded system after a Comparison
cycle, Write at Next Free Address cycle or Read/Write at
Highest-Priority match, only the highest-priority device
will enable its AA bus, regardless of the state of the /OE
input. In the event of a mismatch in the Address Database
after a Compare cycle, or after a Write at Next Free
Address cycle into an already full system, the lowest-priority device will drive the AA bus with all 1s. The AA bus
is latched when /E is LOW, and are free to change only
when /E is HIGH.
AC12-0/AC11-0 (Address/Control Bus, Input)
When Hardware control is selected, the AC bus conveys
address or control information to the MU9C RCP, depending on the state of the /AV input. When /AV is LOW then
the AC bus carries an address; when /AV is HIGH the AC
bus carries control information. Data on the AC bus is registered by the falling edge of /E. When software control is
selected, the state of the AC bus does not affect the operation of the device.

MU9C RCP Family
PA3-0 (Page Address, Output)
/AV (Address Valid, Input)
The PA3-0 lines convey Page Address information. When
the /OE input is HIGH, the PA3-0 outputs are in their
high-impedance state; when /OE is LOW the PA3-0 lines
carry the Page Address value held in the Configuration
register. The PA3-0 lines are latched when /E is LOW, and
are free to change only when /E is HIGH. The Page
Address value of the currently active or highest-priority
responding device is output at the same time, and under
the same conditions, as the AA bus is active.
When Hardware control is selected, the /AV input
determines whether the AC bus carries address or control
information. When /AV is LOW, the AC bus conveys a
memory address; when /AV is HIGH, the AC bus conveys
control information. The state of the /AV line is registered
by the falling edge of /E. When software control is
selected, the /AV line distinguishes between instructions
and data on the DQ31-0 lines; when /AV is LOW, data is
present on the DQ31-0 lines; when /AV is HIGH, an
instruction is present on the DQ11-0 lines.
/E (Chip Enable, Input)
/VB (Validity Bit, Three-state, Common Input/
Output)
The /E input is the main chip enable and synchronizing
control for the MU9C RCP. When /E is HIGH, the chip is
disabled and the DQ31-0 lines are held in their
high-impedance state. The falling edge of /E registers the
/W, /CS1, /CS2, /AV, /AC bus, DSC, and the /VB and
DQ31-0 lines for a Write cycle. /E being LOW causes the
results of the previous comparison or memory access to be
latched on the PA:AA bus; when /E goes HIGH the latches
open allowing the new comparison results or random
access memory address to flow to the PA:AA bus.
During accesses over the DQ31-0 lines, the /VB line
conveys validity information to and from the MU9C RCP.
During a Write cycle (/W=LOW), when /VB is LOW the
addressed location is set valid; when /VB is HIGH it is set
empty. During a Read cycle (/W=HIGH), the validity of
the addressed location is read on the /VB line. During a
Write cycle, the state of the /VB line is registered by the
falling edge of /E.
/CS1, /CS2 (Chip Select 1, Chip Select 2,
Inputs)
/MF (Match Flag, Output)
The /MF output indicates whether a valid match has
occurred during the previous Comparison cycle. If the
/MF output is HIGH at the end of a Comparison cycle,
then no match occurred; if it is LOW then either a match
occurred within the device, or the /MI input is LOW,
conditioned by the /MF output from a higher-priority
device in the system. The state of the /MF line will not
change until after the rising edge of /E during the
Comparison cycle. Note that /MF indicates the results of
the most recent Comparison cycle; it will not change when
the PA:AA bus carry an address other than the Match
address.
The /CS1 and /CS2 inputs enable the MU9C RCP. If either
/CS1 or /CS2 are LOW, the device is selected for a Read,
Write, or Compare cycle through the DQ31-0 lines, or for
an internal data transfer. The /CS1 and /CS2 lines do not
have any effect on the PA:AA bus. The state of the /CS1
and /CS2 lines is registered by the falling edge of /E.
/W (Write Enable, Input)
The /W input determines the direction of data transfer on
the DQ31-0 lines during Read, Write, and Data Move
cycles. When /W is LOW, data flows into the DQ31-0
lines; when /W is HIGH, data flows out. The /W line also
conditions the control state present on the AC bus and
DSC lines. The state of the /W line is registered by the
falling edge of /E.
/MI (Match Input, Input)
The /MI input receives match information from the next
higher-priority MU9C RCP in a vertically cascaded
system to provide system-level prioritization. When the
/MI input is HIGH, the /MF output will only go LOW if
there is a match during a Comparison cycle; when the /MI
input is LOW, the /MF output will go LOW. The /MF
output from one device is connected to the /MI input of the
next lower-priority device. The /MI pin of the
highest-priority device must be tied HIGH.
/OE (Output Enable, Input)
The /OE input enables the PA:AA bus. When /OE is
HIGH, PA:AA bus are in their high-impedance state.
When /OE is LOW, PA:AA bus are active, and convey the
results of the last Comparison Cycle Match address or
Memory Access address. In a vertically cascaded system,
only the PA:AA bus of the highest-priority device will be
activated by /OE being LOW; in lower-priority devices,
the PA:AA bus remains in high-impedance regardless of
the state of /OE.

/FF (Full Flag, Output)
/RESET
The /FF output indicates when all the memory locations
have their Validity bits set valid (LOW). When there is at
least one location with its Validity bit set HIGH, the /FF
output will be HIGH; when all locations have their
Validity bits set LOW, and the /FI input is LOW, the /FF
output will be LOW. If the /FI input is HIGH, the /FF
output will be HIGH. The state of the /FF line will not
change until after the rising edge of /E during a Write
cycle.
The /RESET input is used to reset the MU9C RCP to a
known state. When the /RESET line is pulled LOW it
causes the MU9C RCP to enter its reset state. After power
is applied to the MU9C RCP, the /RESET line must be
held LOW for a time equal to or greater than the minimum
RESET pulse width before the device can operate
correctly. This pin is internally pulled up.
TCLK (JTAG Test Clock, Input)
The TCLK input is the Test Clock input. This pin is
internally pulled up.
/FI (Full Input, Input)
The /FI input receives full information from the next
higher-priority MU9C RCP in a vertically cascaded
system to provide system-level full information. When the
/FI input is LOW the /FF output will be HIGH if there is at
least one location whose Validity bit is set invalid; when
all locations have their Validity bits set valid, the /FF
output goes LOW. When the /FI input is HIGH, the /FF
output will remain HIGH. The /FF output from one device
is connected to the /FI input of the next lower-priority
device to give system-full indication. The /FI pin of the
highest-priority device must be tied LOW.
TMS (JTAG Test Mode Select, Input)
The TMS input is the Test Mode Select input. This pin is
internally pulled up.
TDI (JTAG Test Data Input, Input)
The TDI input is the Test Data input. This pin is internally
pulled up.
TDO (JTAG Test Data Output, Output)
The TCLK output is the Test Data Output. This pin is
internally pulled up.
/MM (Multiple Match, Open Drain Output)
/TRST (JTAG Reset, Input)
The /MM line indicates that there is a multiple match
within the system. When the /MI input is HIGH, the /MM
line is pulled LOW if there are at least two matches within
the MU9C RCP as a result of the previous Comparison
cycle; when there are less than two matches, the /MM line
floats HIGH. When the /MI input is LOW, the /MM line is
pulled LOW if there are one or more matches within the
MU9C RCP as a result of the previous Comparison cycle;
when there are no matches, the /MM line floats HIGH.
The /MM lines have open-drain outputs, so all /MM lines
within the system are connected together to give
system-level multiple match indication. The state of the
/MM line will not change until after the rising edge of /E
during a Comparison cycle.
The /TRST input is the Reset input, and serves to reset the
Test Access Port circuitry to its reset condition. This pin is
internally pulled up.
VDD, VDDIO, VSS (Positive Power Supply,
Ground)
These pins are the main power supply connections to the
MU9C RCP. VDD and VDDIO must be held at +3.3 Volts
and ± 0.3 Volts relative to the VSS pin, which is at 0 Volts,
system reference potential, for correct operation of the
device.
Note: The TCLK, TMS, TDI, TDO, and /TRST lines are defined
in the IEEE Standard Test Access Port and Boundary-scan
Architecture IEEE Standard. 1149.1-1990 and IEEE Standard.

MU9C RCP Family
Functional Description
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
control state, allowing access to associated data in the
external RAM at the same location as an access in the
MU9C RCP for all types of cycles.
Data is read from and written to the MU9C RCP through
the DQ31-0 lines. The Control bus, which is comprised of
Chip Enable (/E), two Chip Selects (/CS1, /CS2), Write
Enable (/W), Output Enable (/OE), Validity Bit Control
(/VB), Address Valid (/AV), Data Segment Control (DSC),
and the Address/Control inputs (AC bus) controls the
MU9C RCP. When the /AV line is LOW, the AC bus
carries an address for random access into the Memory
array; when it is HIGH, the AC bus conveys control
information. The MU9C RCP control states perform
Register Read/Write, Memory Read/Write, Data Move,
Comparison, Validity Bit Control, Initialization, and
Address Register Control. These functions are
summarized in Control State Overview on page 18.
The Output enable, /OE, controls the PA:AA bus: when it
is LOW after a Compare cycle, the highest-priority
responding device outputs its Page and Match addresses
on PA:AA bus. Only the highest-priority responding
device is enabled, all other lower-priority devices will
have their PA:AA bus in the high-impedance state,
regardless of the state of their respective /OE lines: when
/OE is HIGH, the PA:AA remain in the high-impedance
state.
When a mismatch occurs in the system, the lowest-priority
device, as defined in the Configuration register, will drive
the PA:AA bus with all 1s. When any Read or Write cycle
occurs, the address of the accessed location is output on
the PA:AA bus. The address output on the PA:AA bus is
persistent, and is held latched until /E goes HIGH during
the next cycle that changes the Active address. The PA:AA
bus is free to change only while /E is HIGH. Once /E goes
LOW, the state of the PA:AA bus is latched.
Random access to memory locations occurs when the /AV
line is LOW; during a Write cycle, the validity of the
location is set by the /VB input. When the /AV line is
HIGH the control states allow read and write access to the
register set comprising Comparand register, seven mask
registers, a Configuration register, a Status register, an
Address register, a Device Select register, and an
Instruction register. The Configuration register sets the
persistent operating conditions of the device: the Page
address of the device, selection of mask register for
directly addressed memory writes, and selection between
hardware and software control.
After a Compare cycle, the /MF and /MM flags are free to
change after /E has gone HIGH. Once the Match Flag
daisy chain has resolved device prioritization, the /OE
lines can be asserted to enable the PA:AA bus from the
highest-priority matching device.
When Hardware control is selected, control is through the
AC bus and DSC line. When Software control is selected,
control is through the Instruction register, which is loaded
from the DQ bus. Under software control the /AV line is
used to distinguish between data and an instruction on the
DQ bus. Therefore, in Software Control mode, random
access to the Memory array can take place only using
indirect addressing through the Address register.
In a multi-chip system, when a device remains deselected
during a Compare cycle through /CS1 and /CS2 being
HIGH and there being no match between the Device
Select register and the Page Address register, that device
will clear any previous positive match results. In other
words, if it had previously been indicating a match from
an earlier Comparison cycle, it will now be set to indicate
a mismatch, even though it was not selected during the
most recent Compare cycle.
The two Chip Select lines /CS1, /CS2 enable the device
and simplify access to a multi-chip system, if either Chip
Select line is LOW the device is selected. The MU9C RCP
also can be selected through the Device Select register
when its value is set to that of the Page address of the
device, and the enable bit in the Device Select register is
set LOW. The /OE input enables the output signal and is
used to synchronize devices in a multi-chip system, and to
prevent race conditions among devices during priority
resolution.
For pure software control of the MU9C RCP, instructions
can be loaded into the Instruction register, and results read
from the Status register. The Status register holds the
results of comparison: PA:AA bus, /MF, /FF, and /MM
plus two PA:AA Validation bits that indicate the type of
cycle that generated the PA:AA bus value.
Vertical cascading is supported through a daisy chain
architecture. There are two daisy chains, one each for the
Match flag and the Full flag; the Multiple Match flag is
connected between devices through an open-drain line.
The Match flag (/MF) from a higher-priority device is
connected to the Match input (/MI) of the next
lower-priority device to provide prioritization throughout
a multiple device system. The /MF output from the
The output signals comprise the Active address (AA bus),
and the Page address (PA bus). The PA:AA bus provides
the current Active address, which is either the Match
address, Next Free address, or the Random Access
address, concatenated with the Device Page address. The
source of Active address is dependent on the previous

delay through the daisy chain is unacceptable, the /OE
input can be used by external priority-resolution circuitry
to enable the highest-priority responder in the system.
system are wire-ORed. Multiple responders can be
accessed sequentially by resetting the Highest-Priority
Match latch with the control state Advance to Next
Matching Location.
The match conditions on the Match and Multiple Match
flag lines are persistent indicating the results of the most
recent Compare cycle. The Match flags are free to change
after the rising edge of /E during a Compare cycle, at
which time the daisy chain starts to resolve device
prioritization. Once the daisy chain has settled, the /OE
lines can be pulled LOW to access the Highest-Priority
Match address on the PA:AA bus.
The Full flag (/FF) is cascaded from one device to the Full
Flag input (/FI) of the next lower-priority device in the
system. The /FF output from the lowest-priority device
provides a system Full flag. The Full flag is free to change
after the rising edge of /E during a Write cycle. The daisy
chains are persistent and are not conditioned by the /OE
input.
The MU9C RCP supports JTAG boundary-scan testing
through the pins TCK, TMS, TDI, TDO, and /TRST,
according to the IEEE 1149 Standard: Test Access Port
and Boundary-scan Architecture.
The Multiple Match open-drain output (/MM) provides
multiple match indication when there are two or more
matches in a single device, or a device has its /MI input
LOW and has a match; the /MM flags of all devices in the
OPERATIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
Processor Interface
The MU9C RCP can be controlled directly through
software. The Software Control mode is selected through
settings in the Configuration register.
The processor interface is supported through a 32-bit data
bus DQ31-0 and control signals comprised of Chip Enable
(/E), two Chip Selects (/CS1, /CS2), Write Enable (/W),
Output Enable (/OE), Validity Bit Control (/VB), Address
Valid (/AV), Data Segment Control (DSC), and
Address/Control inputs (AC bus). When the /AV line is
LOW, the DSC and AC bus carries an address for random
access into the Memory array; when it is HIGH, the AC
bus conveys control information.
When the Software Control mode is selected, control
states are written to the Instruction register from DQ11-0
during a Write cycle with the /AV line held HIGH. DQ12
acts as the DSC input. If the control state does not involve
any data transaction on the DQ31-0 lines, the instruction is
executed during the same cycle; the state of DQ13
modifies the instruction, its state is equivalent to the /W
input.
Most of the functionality of the MU9C RCP is accessed
through the control states on DSC and AC bus when /AV
is HIGH. The processor maps the control structure into
memory space and controls the MU9C RCP through
memory Read and Write cycles. Using this memory
mapping scheme, the /AV line should be driven from logic
that generates a HIGH level within the mapped range of
the control states, and a LOW level outside it. Other
control inputs /E, /W, /CS1, and /CS2 are analogous to
SRAM control inputs.
Note: It is up to the system designer to ensure that the correct
cycle type follows the loading of an instruction in Software
Control mode. If the instruction expects a Read cycle, and a
Write cycle is executed, or vice versa, the function of the MU9C
RCP is undefined. Such an error may lead to data loss, but will
not damage the device physically.
A Read cycle with the /AV line HIGH will access the
Status register, allowing results to be read back without
loading a new instruction. After a Comparison cycle,
Write at Next Free Address cycle or Read/Write at
Highest-Priority match in a vertically cascaded system,
only the highest-priority device will enable its DQ31-0
lines and output the contents of its Status register. After a
Comparison cycle, in the event of a mismatch in the
MU9C RCP, the DQ31-0 lines of the lowest-priority
device will be enabled. After a random access Read or
Write cycle, the Status register of any selected device will
be enabled. Under these circumstances, it is up to the user
to ensure that only a single device is enabled through
/CS1, /CS2, or the Device Select register.
The /VB line acts like an extra data bit during memory
Read and Write cycles and is used to read and write the
validity of any memory location.
The MU9C RCP is enabled either through hardware
through /CS1 or /CS2 being LOW, or it is enabled by the
value written to the Device Select register matching with
the Page Address field of the Configuration register. One
extra bit in the Device Select register enables the
comparison between the Page Address value and the
Device Select register. These Chip Select mechanisms
operate in parallel. If any one is active, the device is
enabled.

MU9C RCP Family
Operational Characteristics
Software Control
The instruction is persistent, so that all subsequent data
transactions will be executed according to the control state
held in the Instruction register. The results of a
Comparison cycle can be read back from the Status
register, and include PA:AA bus, /MF, /MM, and /FF. The
following sequence of events provides the fastest
operation of the MU9C RCP in Software Control mode:
/AV
1
0
1
0
1
For optimum performance, the AC bus and DSC line
control the MU9C RCP, allowing data transactions
through the DQ31-0 lines during a control cycle. In cases
where the overhead of a separate data load cycle can be
accommodated, the MU9C RCP can be operated through
the Instruction register. The AC bus and DSC line are not
used.
Operation
Load ’Compare DQ with CAM’ instruction
Comparand on DQ31-0
Read Status Register
Next Comparand on DQ31-0
Read Status Register, etc.
Control through the Instruction register is selected by the
FR27-26 bits of the Configuration register being set
HIGH. The instruction is loaded from the DQ11-0 lines
(with DSC on DQ12) into the Instruction register during a
Write cycle with the /AV line HIGH. The instructions are
directly analogous to the control states for any operation
that does not involve data transfer on the DQ31-0 lines, in
which case the instruction is executed during the same
cycle as the instruction is loaded. To distinguish between
Read and Write control states, DQ13 is used to indicate
which type of instruction should be executed. When DQ13
is LOW at the beginning of the cycle, the instruction
executed is the Write Cycle instruction (/W = LOW when
control state is conveyed on AC bus and DSC); when
DQ13 is HIGH at the beginning of the cycle, the
instruction executed is the Read Cycle instruction (/W =
HIGH when control state is conveyed on the AC bus).
Note: It is up to the system designer to ensure that the correct
cycle type follows the loading of an instruction in Software
Control mode. If the instruction expects a Read cycle, and a
Write cycle is executed, or vice versa, the function of the MU9C
RCP is undefined. Such an error may lead to data loss, but will
not damage the device physically.
Hardware Control
Direct hardware control using the AC bus and DSC line
enhances performance of the MU9C RCP. The AC bus
inputs determine which CAM location is accessed, and the
DSC determines whether bits 31-0 (DSC LOW) or bits
63-32 (DSC HIGH) are active. The Hardware Control
mode is selected when Configuration Register bits
FR27-26 are set LOW. The AC bus inputs are qualified by
/W, /AV, and /VB. When /AV is LOW, the AC bus and
DSC line carry the address for a random Read or Write
cycle, depending on the state of /W, and /VB carries the
validity of the location. During a Write cycle, /VB is
written to the Validity bit of the addressed location; during
a Read cycle, the validity of the location is read on the /VB
line. When /VB is LOW, the location contains valid data;
when /VB is HIGH the location is empty.
When the instruction calls for data to be written or read
from the DQ31-0 lines, the instruction is loaded into the
Instruction register during the cycle, and the next Data
Read or Write cycle with /AV LOW executes the
instruction using the DQ31-0 bus for the data transaction.
The instruction is persistent; for example, if no other
instruction is loaded into the Instruction Register,
subsequent data transactions with the /AV line LOW will
be executed according to the instruction currently loaded
in the Instruction register. When there is a data access to a
memory location on DQ31-0 associated with the
instruction, the /VB line carries the validity of that
location.
When /AV is HIGH, the AC bus and DSC line carry
address and control information. The DSC line selects
whether bits 31-0 (DSC LOW) or bits 63-32 (DSC HIGH)
participate in the operation. The AC8-6 lines select the
mask register and the AC5-0 lines provide the Op-Code. If
masking is not used, and all random addressing of the
memory is indirect through the Address register, then only
the DSC and AC5-0 lines are needed for full control of the
device.
Instructions that involve data transactions on DQ31-0, and
are therefore executed on a subsequent Read or Write
cycle with the /AV line LOW, are all Read/Write Memory
and Read/Write Register instructions, Read Validity, Write
PA3-0. All other instructions are executed in a single cycle
with the state of DQ13 being interpreted as the state of the
/W line during the equivalent hardware control state.
In applications where a restricted number of control lines
are available, or where speed is not critical, the MU9C
RCP can be controlled in Software Control mode where
the control states are loaded into the Instruction register
through the DQ31-0 lines. The control states are identical
in both Hardware and Software Control modes, although
DQ12 and DQ13 take on special significance in Software
mode.
For Read Cycles with the /AV line HIGH, there is a
Software Control mode. This mode is selected through the
Configuration bits FR27-26. In Software Control mode
(FR27-26 = 0b11) a Read cycle with /AV HIGH accesses
the Status register.

Active Address Interface PA:AA Bus
PA:AA Bus After a Random Access Read or Write to
the CAM
The Active Address interface PA:AA bus carries the
currently active address. The address source depends on
the most recent control state that caused it to change. The
possible address sources that are output on PA:AA bus are:
Highest-Priority Match address, Next Free address, Read
address, and Write address.
After a random Read or Write cycle to the MU9C RCP, the
PA:AA bus carries the address that was accessed during
that cycle. Only the device in which the access occurred
enables its PA:AA bus. All other devices keep their
PA:AA bus in high-impedance regardless of the state of
their /OE inputs. Note that the access to the PA:AA bus
differs in this respect from the operation of the Status
register, which is accessible in any selected device under
this particular circumstance.
PA:AA Bus After a Comparison Cycle
After a Comparison cycle, or access to the
Highest-Priority address, the PA:AA bus carries one of the
following two possible results:
•
•
In the event that the Write cycle was broadcast to multiple
devices, all devices that have their /OE lines held LOW
will enable their PA:AA bus. Under this circumstance, it is
up to the system designer to ensure that only one /OE line
is driven LOW to prevent bus contention on the PA:AA
bus.
The Match address if the Comparison cycle resulted
in a match in the MU9C RCP. Only the device
containing the highest-priority match enables its
PA:AA bus. All other devices with either no match or
a lower-priority match, as indicated by the Match Flag
daisy chain, keep their PA:AA bus in high-impedance
regardless of the state of their /OE inputs.
PA:AA Bus Conditions of Operation
All 1s if there was no match in the MU9C RCP. The
lowest-priority device, as indicated by bit FR25 in the
Configuration register, enables its PA:AA bus and
provides the source of all 1s. All other devices will
keep their PA:AA bus in high-impedance regardless
of the state of their /OE inputs.
PA:AA Bus After a Write at Next Free Address Cycle
After a Write at Next Free Address cycle the PA:AA
carries the address that was written to during that cycle.
Only the device in which the write occurred enables its
PA:AA bus. All other devices keep their PA:AA bus in
high-impedance regardless of the state of their /OE inputs.
In the event that the system was full prior to the Write at
Next Free Address cycle being executed, so that the write
operation was suppressed, the PA:AA carries all 1s. The
lowest-priority device, as indicated by bit FR25 in the
Configuration register, enables its PA:AA bus and
provides the source of all 1s. All other devices keep their
PA:AA in high-impedance regardless of the state of their
/OE inputs.

•
During a control state that does not have any effect on
the device address, such as a Write Register cycle, the
PA:AA bus remains unchanged. In other words, the
state of the PA:AA bus persists until another cycle
causes it to change.
•
When enabled by /OE being LOW, the PA:AA bus is
only free to change while /E is HIGH. When /E goes
LOW the PA:AA bus is latched.
•
The PA:AA bus is enabled when /OE is LOW
provided that the previous cycle causes them to be
active. When /OE is HIGH, the PA:AA bus is in
high-impedance. Note that /OE is asynchronous with
respect to /E, and is independent of Chip Select from
either /CS1, /CS2, or through the Device Select
register, except in the case of non-broadcast random
Read and Write cycles to the MU9C RCP.
MU9C RCP Family
Register Descriptions
PA:AA Bus and the Match Flags
The Match flags /MF and /MM reflect the results of the
most recent Comparison cycle. During a Comparison
cycle, they do not change until after /E has gone HIGH
after which they are free to change combinatorially; their
state is not latched when /E is LOW. This condition allows
some pipelining to occur and is useful in systems with
long daisy chains. A Comparison cycle can be followed by
another cycle that does not affect the PA:AA bus before
the daisy chain is resolved. For example:
CMP CR
WR CR
The WRL CR control state can be executed before the
daisy chain has resolved device prioritization after the
CMP CR control state. The /OE then is asserted at a
suitable time, depending on the length of the daisy chain.
The Match address of the highest-priority responding
device then is driven onto the PA:AA bus.
The /MF, /MM lines continue to indicate the results of the
most recent match, even when the PA:AA bus carries an
address other than the Match address. This condition
allows rapid return to the Match address value on the
PA:AA bus lines through a RDL[HPM] cycle, without the
daisy chain having to re-resolve device-level
prioritization.
PA:AA Bus and the Status Register
The Status Register bits SR15-0 reflect the PA:AA bus
under all conditions. The Status Register flags /MF, /MM,
and /FF represent the local conditions within the device,
and are not conditioned by the /MI and /FI inputs.
After a Comparison cycle, Write at Next Free address, or
access to the Highest-Priority Matching device, a Status
Register Read cycle is executed in the same device as the
active PA:AA bus. In the case of a random access Read or
Write cycle, the Status register of any selected device can
be accessed by a Read Status Register cycle. The system
designer must ensure that a Status Register Read cycle
after a random Read or Write cycle is configured into a
single device using Chip Select /CS1, /CS2, or the Device
Select register to prevent bus contention on the DQ31-0
bus.
REGISTER DESCRIPTIONS
The Register Set is comprised of the Comparand register,
seven Mask registers, Address register, Configuration
register, Status register, Next Free Address register,
Device Select register, and Instruction register. Note that
all RESERVED bits can be read and written without
affecting the operation of the device.
However, for forward compatibility with future product
enhancements, system designers should not rely on any
particular RESERVED bit having no effect on the
operation of the device in future revisions. Therefore all
RESERVED bits should be set to logical zero.
The Register Set
Comparand Register
The 64-bit Comparand register holds the value to be
compared with the valid contents of the Address Database
array, although the DQ lines can be compared directly, and
then optionally written into the Comparand register.
Mask Registers
There are seven 64-bit mask registers that are used to mask
Compare and Write cycles. When a bit is set LOW in a
selected mask register, the corresponding bit enters into
comparison during a Compare cycle, or is written during a
Write cycle. When a bit is set HIGH in a selected mask
register, the corresponding bit does not enter into
comparison during a Compare cycle, or remains
unchanged after a Write cycle.
12
Address Register
The 32-bit Address register is used for indirect addressing
of the Address Database. When random access to the
Address Database is restricted to indirect addressing, the
width of the control bus can be reduced to 9 bits if
masking is used or 6 bits if it is not. Control states allow
increment and decrement of the Address register as well as
auto-increment and auto-decrement Read and Write
cycles. Bits AR12-0 hold the address while bits AR31-13
are reserved and should be set LOW.
Configuration Register
The 32-bit Configuration register sets the persistent
operating conditions of the MU9C RCP. Bits FR31-29
select which mask register is used for direct Write cycles
to the Address database when the address is conveyed on
the AC bus (/AV=LOW), a value of 000 in this field
results in unmasked direct Write cycles. Bits FR27-26
select the mode of operation: Hardware Control mode or
Software Control mode. Bit FR25 is used to identify the
lowest-priority device in a vertically cascaded system. Bits
FR3-0 hold the device Page address. All other bits are
reserved and should be set LOW. See Table 4 on page 25.
Rev. 8.04
Register Descriptions
MU9C RCP Family
Status Register
Each 64-bit location in the Address Database array has one
extra bit, the Validity bit, which is used to indicate whether
the location is empty or has valid contents. When the
Validity bit is HIGH, the location is empty and is not
compared during Comparison cycles; when it is LOW the
contents are valid and will be compared during a
Comparison cycle. The Validity bits are set or reset during
Write cycles through the /VB line. The Validity bit of a
location is accessed on the /VB line during a Read cycle.
The Validity bits can be set and reset through control
states. The Validity bits also are used in the generation of
the next free address value.
The 32-bit Status register holds the results of the most
recent control state that caused the PA:AA lines to change.
It is intended for use in Software Control mode where
results of an operation are read from the MU9C RCP
through the DQ31-0 lines. Bit SR30 holds the Match flag,
/MF, which goes LOW when there is a match in the
Address Database. Bit SR29 holds an internal version of
the Multiple Match flag, /MM, which is LOW if there is a
multiple match in the particular device; note that this is not
a system-level multiple match indication. Bit SR28 holds
the Full flag, /FF, which goes LOW when all the Address
Database locations are set valid, and the /FI line is LOW.
Bits SR25-24 indicate the type of result held in the Active
Address field: Match address, Memory Access address, or
Reset state. Bits SR19-16 hold the Page address, PA3-0,
for the device. Bits SR12-0 hold the Active address,
identical to that on the AA bus. All other bits are reserved
and are set LOW. See Table 5 on page 26.
Address Database Access
Data is written to or read from the Address Database array
either randomly by address, or associatively by
comparison and next free address. Random addressing can
be either direct with the address on the DSC and AC12-0
lines (/AV=LOW) or indirect with the address held in the
Address register. Address Database access is controlled
through the control states on the DSC and AC12-0 lines
(/AV=HIGH) in Hardware Control mode, or through the
Instruction register in Software Control mode.
Next Free Address Register
The 32-bit Next Free Address register holds the
highest-priority address that has its Validity bit set empty
(HIGH). System-level prioritization ensures that only the
device with the highest-priority empty address in a
vertically cascaded system will respond to a Read Next
Free Address Register Control state. Bits NF19-16 hold
the device Page address, PA3-0. Bits NF12-0 hold the next
free address value. All other bits are reserved, and are set
LOW. See Table 6 on page 26.
Chip Select
There are two methods of selecting the MU9C RCP:
through Hardware control inputs /CS1 and /CS2, and
through software control through the Data Select register.
Chip Select Inputs
The Chip Select lines /CS1 and /CS2 enable the MU9C
RCP to participate in a control cycle. If either /CS1 or
/CS2 are LOW the device is selected. By connecting all
the /CS1 lines together in a multi-device system, and
decoding the lines to each individual device's /CS2 line,
control states can operate locally within a single device or
globally in all devices. Control states can be broadcast to
all devices within the system by pulling the /CS1 lines
LOW, for operations such as Write Comparand register;
individual devices can be selected to respond to a control
state such as Write at Address by pulling a single decoded
/CS2 line LOW.
Device Select Register
The 32-bit Device Select register is used for software
selection of the MU9C RCP. A particular device is selected
when the value in bits DS3-0 are the same as the Page
Address value PA3-0 and the Device Select Enable bit,
DS8, is set LOW. Setting DS8 HIGH prevents the Device
Select register from enabling the MU9C RCP. All other bits
are reserved and should be set LOW. See Table 7.
Instruction Register
In Software Control mode, control states are written to the
32-bit Instruction register instead of being fed to the
MU9C RCP through the DSC and AC11-0 lines. Bits
IR12-0 are equivalent to the DSC and AC11-0 lines and
the control states they invoke are identical to those of the
Hardware Control mode. The remaining bits are reserved
and should be set LOW.
Device Select Register
One dedicated line is needed per device to do local
selection of one device within a multi-device system. In
cases where control lines are at a premium, the Device
Select register can be used as the method of selection. If
Device Select Register bit DS8 is LOW, only the device or
devices whose Page Address value, held in Configuration
Register bits FR3:0, match with the Device Select Register
bits DS3-0 will be selected. Note that the match condition
of the Device Select register is ORed with the state of the
/CS1 and /CS2 lines. If DS8 is HIGH, the device remains
unselected through the Device Select register.
The Address Database
The Address Database is organized as 4096 or 8192 64-bit
locations: location 0000H as the highest-priority location,
and location 0FFFH as the lowest-priority location. Write
cycles to the next free address start at location 0000H
when the MU9C RCP is empty, and continue down to
0FFFH or 1FFFH when it becomes full.

MU9C RCP Family
Register Descriptions
There is a small propagation delay per device in the daisy
chain. Alternatively, vertical cascading can be done with
external logic that provides prioritization and select lines
back into each device. The MU9C RCP architecture
supports external prioritization for cases where the daisy
chain overhead is not acceptable. Figure 4 shows a system
in which a number of MU9C RCPs are vertically
cascaded.
The conditions of the Device Select register, the /CS1 and
/CS2 lines are sampled at the time of the falling edge of /E.
In a particular MU9C RCP within a system, that CAM will
be selected under the following conditions:
(/CS1=LOW) OR (/CS2=LOW)
OR ((DS8 = LOW) AND (DS3-0 = PA3-0))
Therefore, the /CS1 lines of all devices are tied together
for global cycles that broadcast control states to all devices
within the system; then, for local cycles, an individual
device is selected by loading all the Device Select
Registers bit DS8 LOW and bits DS3-0 with the Page
Address value of the device to be selected. On a
subsequent cycle, /CS1 and /CS2 remain HIGH, and only
the device whose Page Address value matches with its
DS3-0 will respond. After an individual device has been
selected, a global Write cycle to the Device Select register
using /CS1 line is executed to select another device, or to
disable the software chip select mechanism altogether.

Vertical Cascading
A system of any practical depth can be designed by
vertically cascading MU9C RCPs. The scheme uses a
daisy chain to provide system level prioritization as well
as Match, Multiple Match, and Full flags. There are three
daisy chains: Match, Multiple Match, and Full.
When a control state is broadcasted that accesses the
highest-priority matching location or Status register, the
daisy chain ensures that only the device that responds is
the one with the highest-priority match in the system. All
other devices will have their DQ31-0 lines and PA:AA bus
outputs held in high-impedance. Therefore, the Match
Flag daisy chain controls access to the system resources
for control states that are conditional on the results of the
previous Compare cycle.

Figure 4: Vertically Cascading MU9C RCP’s
During a Comparison cycle, the Match and Multiple
Match flags will not change until /E goes HIGH during
that cycle. At this time, the daisy chain starts to resolve
system-level prioritization. Once sufficient time has
elapsed for the daisy chain to be resolved, the PA:AA bus
can be enabled with /OE, and Status Register Read cycles
will access only the highest-priority matching device.
Note that the daisy chain resolves system-level
prioritization combinatorially once initiated by /E going
HIGH. Other cycles that do not affect the daisy chain or
match results can take place in the MU9C RCP while the
daisy chain is resolving, for example, WR CR, allowing
some degree of pipelining. During a Write cycle, the Full
flag will not change until /E goes HIGH during that cycle.

Rev. 8.04
Register Descriptions
MU9C RCP Family
Full Cascading
Highest-Priority Matching address operate over the entire
system; only the device in which the /MI line is HIGH and
that has a match will respond to the cycle. This scheme
automatically prioritizes a system of vertically cascaded
devices, the highest up in the chain has the
highest-priority. Note, however, that cycles that do not
access highest-priority match data or the Status register
will operate regardless of the state of the Match daisy
chain.
The Full flag is set LOW in a particular MU9C RCP if the
/FI line is LOW, and that device is full. During a Write
cycle, the Full flag will not change until /E goes HIGH
during that cycle. When the /FI line is HIGH, one or more
locations are free in the higher-priority devices; therefore,
when the /FI line is HIGH, whether or not that particular
device is full, its /FF output will remain HIGH. This
method allows the Full Flag daisy chain to recognize
non-contiguous empty locations throughout the entire
MU9C RCP system.
Multiple Match Flag Daisy Chain
The Multiple Match flag, /MM, is an open-drain output,
and will be pulled LOW by a particular device when its
/MI input is HIGH and there is more than one match
within the device, or when the /MI input is LOW and there
is one match within the device. During a Comparison
cycle, the Multiple Match flag will not change until /E
goes HIGH during that cycle. This wired-OR output
provides system level indication of the multiple match
condition within a vertically cascaded system of MU9C
RCPs.
The daisy chain gives System Full indication. When the
device at the end of the chain has its /FF output LOW, the
entire CAM system is full. The first device in the daisy
chain has its /FI line tied LOW to ensure data can be
written into the system.
The daisy chain also controls Write at Next Free Address
cycles as well as Read Next Free Address cycles so that
they work globally across the system, and not just locally
in a specific device. Only the device in which the /FI line
is LOW, and which is not full, will respond to the Write
cycle. Therefore, deletions and insertions can be made in
the memory, without the need to keep track of empty
locations.
Match Flag Timing Overhead
There is a propagation delay for the match results to ripple
down through the daisy chain. All the MU9C RCPs within
the system execute a Comparison cycle in parallel, so the
local results are available at the end of a Comparison
cycle. The local Match flags do not change during a
Comparison cycle until /E goes HIGH. The logical
combination of the results then propagates down the daisy
chain with a delay through each stage. The compare time
in each device operating in parallel is added to the ripple
delay through the daisy chain. Before reading the results
of a comparison from the System Match flag, the daisy
chain must be given time to settle to a valid state. If there
are N devices vertically cascaded in a system, and the time
to get a valid output on /MF for one device is t(MF), and
the propagation delay for the flag to ripple through one
device from /MI valid to /MF valid is t(PD), then the time
t(DC) for the daisy chain to develop a valid output
condition is:
Match Cascading
The Match flag /MF will be LOW in a particular device
within a vertically cascaded system when its /MI input is
LOW, or when there is a match in that device. During a
Comparison cycle, the Match flag will not change until /E
goes HIGH during that cycle. When the /MI line is LOW,
one or more locations in higher-priority devices have a
match; when the /MI line is LOW, the /MF output will be
forced LOW. This method allows the Match Flag daisy
chain to respond to and prioritize matches throughout the
entire MU9C RCP system.
The daisy chaining gives a System Match indication.
When the device at the end of the daisy chain has its /MF
output LOW, there is a match within the MU9C RCP
system. The first device in the daisy chain has its /MI input
tied HIGH.
t(DC) = t(MF)+(N-1)*t(PD)
This period of time must elapse before the flagged results
of the comparison are available, and before /OE is driven
LOW or a Status Register Read cycle is performed.
The daisy chain also controls access to the device by
controlling the outputs during a Read Highest-Priority
Match data, or Read Status register, onto the DQ31-0
lines. The device must be selected with either /CS1, or
/CS2, or the Data Select register. After a Comparison or
Read/Write at Highest-Priority Match Address cycle, only
the device whose /MI line is HIGH, and which has a valid
match, will drive data onto DQ31-0 or onto PA:AA bus;
any device that has its /MI line set LOW will have its
outputs in their high-impedance state, even if it has a valid
match. Therefore, Reads from and Writes to the
Rev. 8.04
There is a similar but shorter delay for the Full Flag daisy
chain, but this only limits the rate at which back-to-back
Write at Next Free Address cycles can be performed.

External Prioritization
1. Write 006H to MU9C RCPs (/AV = HIGH, DQ13 =
LOW).
For systems where the propagation delay associated with
the Match Flag daisy chain is not acceptable, the MU9C
RCP supports external prioritization. Using external
prioritization, each /MF output is fed to a 1 of N
prioritizing circuit whose outputs are fed back to the /CS
and /OE inputs of the respective MU9C RCPs. Access to
the Highest-Priority Match Memory location or Status
register is accomplished by only enabling the /CS to the
Highest-Priority Match device based on the status of the
/MF flags in the system. Likewise, access to the
Highest-Priority Match device's PA:AA bus match address
result is accomplished by enabling only the /OE line to the
Highest-Priority Match device.
The value 006H is the control state Write to
Configuration register, WR FR, with no mask. /AV
being HIGH indicates that this is the instruction to be
written to the Instruction register, and DQ13 being
LOW indicates that it is a Write cycle.
2. XXXXXXXXH to MU9C RCPs (/AV=LOW). The
value XXXXXXXXH is written to the Configuration
register, and if FR27-26=00 then the devices are set to
operate in Hardware Control mode.
AV being LOW causes the control state to execute
using the data present on the DQ31-0 lines.
If the devices in a vertically cascaded system are to be
selected solely through the Device Select register, then the
Page addresses must be set to unique values in each
device. However, to set the Page address in each
Configuration register in turn would require that each
device already had a unique Page Address value. To
overcome this dilemma, there are two special control
states that allow the Page Address registers to be set
individually in this circumstance. Once the general
operating conditions have been established by
broadcasting a configuration value to all the MU9C RCPs
in the system, the Page Address values must be set to a
unique value in each device. This is done through a
sequence of WR PA control states, each executed with a
unique value on the DQ31-0 lines. This control state
writes the DS3-0 value into the Page Address field of the
Configuration register of the highest-priority empty
device, and then sets the Full flag of that device to indicate
full (LOW). The next WR PA will therefore be directed to
the next lower-priority device within the system. The
sequence continues until all Page Address values have
been written. The RST FF control state is then broadcasted
to all devices to set the Full flags back to Empty, and the
system is then ready for normal operation.
Initialization
After power is applied to the MU9C RCP the /RESET line
must be pulled LOW for at least 50 ns to ensure that the
device establishes its correct initial operating conditions.
There are control states to initialize the system-level
operating conditions that can be run once the device or
devices in the system have been reset after power has been
applied.
Reset
The Reset condition occurs when the /RESET line is
pulled LOW (Hardware reset,) or when the Reset Control
state is executed (Software reset.) The conditions after a
reset are shown in Table 3 on page 25.
The Instruction register is enabled for Software Control
mode. To activate Hardware control, the appropriate value
should be written to the Configuration register in two
cycles from the DQ31-0 lines.
For a Hardware reset, FR25, which defines the lowest
priority device, is set HIGH. This means that either FR25
must be set LOW in the lowest-priority device, or a
Memory access cycle or a Compare cycle that generates a
match must be executed for there to be any response when
reading the PA:AA bus or the Status register.
System Initialization
Once the MU9C RCP devices in the system have been
reset, the system operating conditions must be set up. The
MU9C RCP is reset to Software Control mode, so a value
must be written to the Configuration register to set the
persistent operating state of the device. This first write to
the devices in the system must be through Software
control. The following sequence writes a new value to the
Configuration register under software control:

-1.0 Volts for a duration of 10 ns measured at the 50% amplitude points for Input-only lines (see Figure 6 on page 28).
Common I/O lines are clamped, so that signal transients can not fall below -0.5 Volts.
Applies to all cycle types except Compare cycles and Memory Read cycles (memory to DQ).
Applies to Compare cycle (including NEXT).
Control signals are /CS1, /CS2, /W, /AV, DSC, and the AC bus.
With loads specified in Figure 5 on page 28, Test Load A from Table 8.
With loads specified in Figure 5 on page 28, Test Load B from Table 8.
/E should be HIGH during /RESET active to ensure proper device defaults.
Test inputs are TDI and TMS signals.
With output and I/O pins unloaded.
Pins with internal pull-ups are /RESET, TCLK, TMS, TDI, and /TRST.
