A-2

Table A-2 is an alphabetical list of the signals available at the device pins. The Multiplexed With
column lists other signals that share a pin with the signal listed in the Signal column.

Type

Name and Description

Multiplexed With

(Alternate

Function)

A25:19
A18:16
A15:1

O

Address Bus:

Outputs physical memory or port I/O addresses. These
signals are valid when ADS# is active and remain valid until
the next T1, T2P, or Ti.


CAS2:0

ADS#

O

Address Status:

Indicates that the processor is driving a valid bus-cycle
definition and address (W/R#, D/C#, M/IO#, A25:1, BHE#,
BLE#) onto its pins.

BHE#

O

Byte High Enable:

Indicates that the processor is transferring a high data byte.

BLE#

O

Byte Low Enable:

Indicates that the processor is transferring a low data byte.

BS8#

I

Bus Size:

Indicates that an 8-bit device is currently being addressed.

BUSY#

I

Busy:

Indicates that the math coprocessor is busy. If BUSY# is
sampled low at the falling edge of RESET, the processor
performs an internal self test.

TMRGATE2

CAS2:0

O

Cascade Address:

Carries the slave address information from the master
8259A interrupt module during interrupt acknowledge bus
cycles.

A18:16

CLK2

ST

Input Clock:

Is connected to an external clock that provides the
fundamental timing for the microprocessor. The internal
processor clock frequency is half the CLK2 frequency.

CLKOUT

O

Clock Output:

Use this output to synchronize external devices with the
processor.

COMCLK

I

SIO Baud Clock:

An external source connected to this pin can clock the SIO

n

baud-rate generator.

O

Chip-selects:

Activated when the address of a memory or I/O bus cycle is
within the address region programmed by the user.
