The VIM module has the following features:
The two VIM modules are in lockstep. These two VIM modules are memory mapped to the same address space. From a programmer’s model point of view it is only one VIM module. Writes to VIM1 registers and memory will be broadcasted to both VIM1 and VIM2. Reads from VIM1 will only read the VIM1 registers and memory. All interrupt requests which go to the VIM1 module will also go to the VIM2 module. Because the VIM1 and VIM2 have the identical setup, both will result in the same output behavior responding to the same interrupt requests. The second VIM module acts as a diagnostic checker module against the first VIM module. The output signals of the two VIM modules are routed to CCM-R5F module and are compared constantly. Mis-compare detected will be signaled as an error to the ESM module. The lockstep VIM pair takes care of the interrupt generation to the lockstep R5F pair.
