Long-Pulse Mode
Long-pulse mode is a variant of leading-edge mode. The only
difference is the effect of a data-settling delay, if used. In long-pulse
mode, a programmable delay, rather than delaying the ACK pulse,
increases the minimum width of the pulse.
Long-pulse mode enables you to handshake with a peripheral device
that requires a large minimum pulse width.
Long-pulse mode also enables you to handshake with 8255 emulation
mode, if you set the ACK and REQ signals to active low. If you want to
use long-pulse mode to handshake with an actual 8255 or 82C55 PPI,
make sure you select an adequate minimum pulse width for your 8255
or 82C55. A data-settling delay of 500 ns is sufficient for any current
8255 or 82C55 PPI.
Figures 5-16 and 5-17 show long-pulse mode input
and output diagrams, respectively.
