12.4 PC Card Memory-Mode Enable Signals

PC Card memory-mode enable signals, nPC_CE1 and nPC_CE2, are output on pin MCELn
and pin MCEHn, respectively. Along with the address signal output on pin AD[0] and the data
signals input or output on pins DA[15:8] and DA[7:0], the nPC_CE1 and nPC_CE2 signals
specify the type of access that is being made to the particular segment of memory in the PC
Card, as shown in

Table 12-3

and

Table 12-4

.

Note: Prior to version 8.0 of the PCMCIA specification, two valid types of odd-byte accesses to a

16-bit PC Card were defined as shown in

Table 12-5

. The SMC does not support Type 1

odd-byte access to 16-bit PC Cards.

12.5 PC Card Memory Mapping

The address mapping for access to an 8- or 16-bit PC Card is shown in

Table 12-6

and

Table 12-7

, respectively.

Note: It is up to the programmer to provide an even address for all attribute memory access

operations (see PCMCIA Spec. 2.1), because the PCMCIA controller will generate the
physical address as shown in

Table 12-6

and

Table 12-7

, regardless of whether the least

significant address bit is 0b1 or 0b0.

Note: In

Table 12-6

and

Table 12-7

, bit 1 and bit 0 of the address each show a value of

0b1, 0b0, or 0bx. [25:2] refers to bit positions of the address, not address values.
