The functionality of the following pins is determined, at
least in part, by the connection of the PCMCIA pin:

Host System Interface Pins

PCMCIA Bus Interface

A14–0

Address Bus

Input

Signals A0 through A14 are address-bus-input lines.
Signal A0 is always used because the data interface to
the Am79C930 is only 8-bits wide.

CE1

Card Enable

Input

CE1

is an active low card enable input signal.

CE1

is

used to enable even-numbered word address bytes. A0
is used to select between the even and odd numbered
bytes within the addressed word.

D7–0

Data Bus

Input/Output

Signals D7 through D0 are the bidirectional data bus for
PCMCIA. The most significant bit is D7.

OE

Output Enable

Input

OE

is an active low-output-enable input signal.

OE

is

used to gate memory read data from the Am79C930 de-
vice onto the PCMCIA data bus.

OE

should be deas-

serted during memory write cycles to the Am79C930
device.

OE

is used for Common memory accesses and

Attribute memory accesses.

INPACK

Input Acknowledge

Output

The

INPACK

signal is an active low signal.

INPACK

is

asserted when the Am79C930 device is selected and
the Am79C930 device can respond to an I/O read cycle
at the address currently on the address bus. This signal
is used by the host to control the enable of any input data
buffer between the card and the CPU. This signal will be
inactive until the card is configured.

IORD

I/O Read

Input

IORD

is an active low signal.

IORD

is asserted by the

host system to indicate to the Am79C930 device that a
read from the Am79C930’s I/O space is being per-
formed. The Am79C930 device will not respond to the

IORD

signal until it has been configured for I/O opera-

tion by the system.

IOWR

I/O Write

Input

IOWR

is an active low signal.

IOWR

is asserted by the

host system to indicate to the Am79C930 device that a
write to the Am79C930’s I/O space is being performed.
The Am79C930 device will not respond to the

IOWR

sig-

nal until it has been configured for I/O operation by
the system.

IREQ

Interrupt Request

Output

IREQ

is an active low signal.

IREQ

is asserted by the

Am79C930 device to indicate to the host that software
service is required.

IREQ

can operate in the pulse mode

or level mode of operation as defined in the PCMCIA
specification. In pulse mode of operation, an interrupt is
signaled by the Am79C930 device by asserting a low-
going pulse of at least 0.5 microseconds (

µ

s). In pulse

mode of operation, the inactive state (i.e., HIGH output)
is driven, not floated. In level mode of operation, an in-
terrupt is signaled by the Am79C930 device by assert-
ing a LOW level. In level mode of operation, the inactive
state (i.e., HIGH output) is driven, not floated.
