Abstract: A peripheral controller interconnect/industry standard architecture (PCI/ISA) bridge chip (34)(hereinafter bridge) is coupled between a first bus (30), preferably the PCI bus a second bus (32), preferably ISA bus (32) in a computer system. A PCI master (42) in the system asserts address and address parity information on the PCI bus (30) to initiate a master-slave transaction over the PCI bus. The bridge (34) includes logic (60) for comparing the address and the address parity information and generating an address parity error signal when there is an address parity error. The bridge (34) also includes a PCI slave (40) that receives the address parity error signal and generates a target-abort signal in response if the PCI slave (40) has already claimed the address by asserting a device select signal. The bridge (34) also includes logic that prevents the target-abort signal from propagating to the PCI bus (30) whenever this logic receives both the address parity error signal and the device select signal. This allows the master to perform a master-abort and prevents the PCI slave (40) on the bridge from performing a target-abort when there is an address parity error.

Abstract: A computer system having an ISA bus and a PCI bus is provided with a PCI to ISA bridge having certain imbedded functions performed by PCI slaves on the bridge. In order to implement the bridge in slow CMOS technology, the PCI control signals are latched on the bridge. Since the PCI slaves on the bridge cannot respond with control signals on the PCI bus fast enough to satisfy the PCI bus protocol due to this latching, a logic device is provided on the bridge. The logic device monitors the unlatched master-slave control signals carried on the PCI bus, and in appropriate situations, drives the control signals on the PCI bus (within the time specified by the PCI bus protocol) that the PCI slaves would normally drive but are unable to within the time necessary to meet the PCI bus protocol.
