The board contains five subsystems: I/O (PCI Bus), Memory, Bus Interface, FireHose Interface, and Clock Generation. Four of these subsystems: the I/O (PCI Bus), Memory, Bus Interface and internal board interface subsystems include ASICs. The Clock subsystem distributes and generate clocks for the ASICs and PCI Bus Interfaces on the board
