PC87303VUL SuperI/O TM Sidewinder Lite
Floppy Disk Controller, Keyboard Controller,
Real-Time Clock, Dual UARTs, IEEE 1284 Parallel Port,
and IDE Interface
General Description
Features
The PC87303VUL is a single chip solution incorporating a
Keyboard and PS/2É Mouse Controller (KBC), Real Time
Clock (RTC) and most commonly used I/O peripherals in
ISA, EISA and MicroChannelÉ based computers. In addition
to the KBC and RTC, a Floppy Disk Controller (FDC), two
full featured UARTs, an IEEE 1284 compatible parallel port
and all the necessary control logic for an IDE interface provides support for most commonly used I/O peripherals.
Standard PC-ATÉ address decoding for all the peripherals,
a set of configuration registers, and two user selectable chip
selects are also implemented in this highly integrated member of the SuperI/O family. The advanced features and high
integration of the PC87303 result in several benefits for low
cost, high performance systems. Printed circuit board space
savings, fewer components on the motherboard and compatibility with the latest industry standard peripherals are
only a few of the benefits of using a PC87303.
The KBC is fully software compatible with the 8042AH microcontroller. It contains system timing, control logic, custom ROM program memory, RAM data memory and 18 programmable I/O lines necessary to implement dedicated
control functions. It is an efficient controller which uses predominantly single byte instructions with support for binary and
BCD arithmetic and extensive bit handling capabilities.

Features (Continued)
The RTC is a low-power design that provides a time-of-day
clock, a 100-year calendar, several alarm features and 242
bytes of general purpose RAM. An external battery is used
to maintain the time and contents of the general purpose
RAM, when power is removed from the PC87303. The
PC87303 RTC is compatible with the DS1287 and
MC146818 RTC devices.
The PC87303 FDC uses a high performance analog data
separator eliminating need for any external filter components. The FDC is fully compatible with the PC8477 and
incorporates a superset of DP8473, NEC mPD765 and
N82077 floppy disk controller function. All popular 5.25×
and 3.5× floppy drives, including 2.88 MB 3.5× floppy drive,
are supported. Full TDR support for PC-AT and PS/2 floppy
drive types is also provided.
The two UARTs are fully NS16450 and NS16550 compatible.
The parallel port is fully IEEE 1284 level 2 compatible. The
SPP (Standard Parallel Port) is fully compatible with ISA,
EISA and MicroChannel parallel ports. In addition to the
SPP, EPP (Enhanced Parallel Port) and ECP (Extended Capabilities Port) modes are supported by the parallel port.
All IDE control signals with DMA support, including support
for Type F DMA are provided by the PC87303. Only external
signal buffers are required to implement a complete IDE
interface.
A set of fourteen configuration registers are provided to
control various functions of the PC87303. These registers
are accessed using two 8-bit wide index and data registers.
The ISA I/O address of the register pair can be relocated
using a power-up strapping option.
Two general purpose user programmable chip selects are
available. These chip selects can be used to decode game
port addresses.

Register bit. The system should pull this pin high using a 4.7 kX resistor. (See WRITE for further

Track 0. This input indicates to the controller that the head of the selected floppy disk drive is at
track zero.
Battery. Real-Time Clock battery pin.
Digital Supply. This is the 5V supply voltage for the digital circuitry.
Analog Supply. This pin is the 5V supply for the analog data separator.
I
Valid Data. These inputs are sensed during reset, and determine the state of bit 5 in the FDC Tape
Drive Register (3F3h). Thus, they determine whether bits 6 and 7 of this register contain valid media
id information for floppy drives 0 and 1. If VLD0 is sensed low at reset, then whenever drive 0 is
accessed, bit 5 of the Tape Drive Register is a 0 indicating that bits 6 and 7 contain valid media id
information. If VLD0 is sensed high at reset, then whenever drive 0 is accessed, bit 5 of the Tape
Drive Register is a 1 indicating that bits 6 and 7 do not contain valid media id information. The same
is true of VLD1 relative to the media id information for drive 1.
If bit 0 of FCR is 1, the VLD bits have no meaning. VLD0 value during reset is loaded into bit 0 of FCR
(to select between media sense or DRATE). A 30 kX internal pulldown resistor is present on each
pin. Use a 10 kX resistor to pull these pins high during reset. These strap option pins are CMOS input
buffers. (See IDEHI, DRID1 and DTR2 for further information.)

2.0 Configuration Registers
2.1 OVERVIEW
2.2 SOFTWARE CONFIGURATION
Fourteen registers constitute the Base Configuration Register set, and control the PC87303 setup. In general, these
registers control the enabling of major functions (FDC,
UARTs, parallel port, pin functionalty etc.), the I/O addresses of these functions, and whether they power-down via
hardware control or not. These registers are the Function
Enable Register (FER), the Function Address Register
(FAR), the Power and Test Register (PTR), the Function
Control Register (FCR), the Printer Control Register (PCR),
the Keyboard and Real-Time Clock Control Register (KRR),
the Power Management Control Register (PMC), the Tape,
UARTs and Parallel Port Register (TUP), the SuperI/O Identification Register (SID), the Advanced SIO Configuration
Register (ASC), the Chip Select 0 Configuraton Register 0
(CS0CF0), the Chip Select 0 Configuration Register 1
(CS0CF1), the Chip Select 1 Configuration Register 0
(CS1CF0) and the Chip Select 1 Configuration Register 1
(CS1CF1).
The FER, FAR, and PTR can be accessed via hardware or
software. During reset, the PC87303 loads a set of default
values, selected by a hardware strapping option, into these
three Configuration Registers. FCR, PCR and KRR can only
be accessed by software.
An index and data register pair are used to read and write
these registers. Each Configuration Register is pointed to by
the value loaded into the Index Register. The data to be
written into the Configuration Register is transferred via the
Data register. A Configuration Register is read in a similar
way (i.e., by pointing to it via the Index Register and then
reading its contents via the Data Register).
Accessing the Configuration Registers in this way requires
only two system I/O addresses. Since that I/O space is
shared by other devices the Index and Data Registers can
still be inadvertantly accessed. To reduce the chances of an
inadvertant access, a simple procedure (see Section 2.2)
has been developed.
If the system requires access to the Configuration Registers
after reset, the following procedure must be used to change
data in the registers.
1. Determine the PC87303 Index Register’s default location.
Check the four possible locations (see Table 2-1) by
reading them twice. The first byte is the ID byte 88h. The
second byte read is always 00h, but read after write always brings the value of the written byte. Compare the
data read with the ID byte and then 00h. A match occurs
at the correct location. Note that the ID byte is only issued from the Index Register during the first read after a
reset. Subsequent reads return the value loaded into the
Index Register. Bits 5 – 6 are reserved and always read 0.
2. Load the Configuration Registers.
A. Disable CPU interrupts.
B. Write the index of the Configuration Register (00h –
0Dh) to the Index Register one time.
C. Write the correct data for the Configuration Register in
two consecutive write accesses to the Data Register.
D. Enable CPU interrupts.
3. Load the Configuration Registers (read-modify-write).
A. Disable CPU interrupts.
B. Write the index of the Configuration Register (00h –
0Dh) to the Index Register one time.
C. Read the configuration data in that register via the
Data Register.
D. Modify the configuration data.
E. Write the changed data for the Configuration Register
in two consecutive writes to the Data Register. The
register updates on the second consecutive write.
F. Enable CPU interrupts.
A single read access to the Index and Data Registers can
be done at any time without disabling CPU interrupts. When
the Index Register is read, the last value loaded into the
Index Register is returned. When the Data Register is read,
the Configuration Register data pointed to by the Index Register is returned.

2.0 Configuration Registers (Continued)
2.3 HARDWARE CONFIGURATION
COM3 is the UART address at 3E8 – Fh
During reset, 1 of 32 possible sets of default values are
loaded into the first three Configuration Registers. A strapping option on five pins (CFG0–4) selects the set of values
that is loaded. This allows for automatic configuration without software intervention. Table 2-1 shows the 32 possible
default configurations. The default configuration can be
modified by software at any time after reset by using the
access procedure described in the Software Configuration
Section.
Table 2-1 is organized as follows. The logic values of the
five external Configuration Pins are associated with the resulting Configuration Register Data and the activated functions. The activated functions are grouped into seven categories based on the data in the FER. In some cases the
data in the FER is given as one of two options. This is because the primary or secondary IDE address is chosen via
the FER.
The PTR has one value associated with the active functions
in the FER. This value allows the power-down of all clocks
when the PWDN pin goes active. In the last case where no
functions are active after reset, activating the PWDN pin
also stops the crystal.
Most of the variability available is through the FAR. Addresses controlled by the FAR are coded as follows:
COM4 is the UART address at 2E8 – Fh
LPTA is the parallel port ( ll PORT ) address at 3BC – 3BEh
LPTB is the ll PORT address at 378 – 37Fh
The chosen addresses are given under active functions and
are in the same order as the active functions they are associated with. In other words, if the active functions are given
as FDC, IDE, UART1, UART2, ll PORT and the addresses
are given as PRI, PRI, COM1, COM2, LPTB; then the functions and the addresses are associated as follows: FDC e
PRI, IDE e PRI, UART1 e COM1, UART2 e COM2,
ll PORT e LPTB.
2.4 INDEX AND DATA REGISTERS
One more general aspect of the Configuration Registers is
that the Index and the Data Register pair can be relocated
to any one of two locations. This is controlled through a
hardware strapping option on two pins (BADDR0,1) and it
allows the registers to avoid conflicts with other adapters in
the I/O address space. Table 2-2 shows the address options.

2.0 Configuration Registers (Continued)
2.5 BASE CONFIGURATION REGISTERS
2.5.1 Function Enable Register (FER, Index 00h)
This register enables and disables major chip functions. Disabled functions have their clocks automatically powered
down, but the data in their registers remains intact. It also
selects whether the FDC and the IDE controller is located at
their primary or secondary address.
Bit 0 When this bit is one the parallel port can be accessed
at the address specified in the FAR.
Bit 1 When this bit is one, UART1 can be accessed at the
address specified in the FAR. When this bit is zero,
access to UART1 is blocked and it is in power-down
mode. The UART1 registers retain all data in power
down mode.
Caution: Any UART1 interrupt that is enabled and
active or becomes active after UART1 is disabled asserts the associated IRQ pin when UART1 is disabled. If disabling UART1 via software, clear the IRQ
Enable bit (MCR3) to zero before clearing FER 1.
This is not an issue after reset because MCR3 is zero
until it is written.
Bit 2 When this bit is one, UART2 can be accessed at the
address specified in the FAR. When this bit is zero,
access to UART2 is blocked and it is in power-down
mode. The UART2 registers retain all data in power
down mode.
Caution: Any UART2 interrupt that is enabled and
active or becomes active after UART2 is disabled asserts the associated IRQ pin when UART1 is disabled
Bit 3
Bit 4
Bit 5
Bit 6
Bit 7
If disabling UART2 via software, clear the IRQ Enable bit (MCR3) to zero before clearing FER1. This is
not an issue after reset because MCR3 is zero until it
is written.
When this bit is one, the FDC can be accessed at the
address specified in the FER bits. When this bit is
zero access to the FDC is blocked and it is in powerdown mode. The FDC registers retain all data in power down mode.
When this bit is zero the PC87303 can control two
floppy disk drives directly without an external decoder. When this bit is one the two drive select signals
and two motor enable signals from the FDC are encoded so that four floppy disk drives can be controlled (see Table 2-3 and Figure 2-2 ). Controlling
four FDDs requires an external decoder. The pin
states shown in Table 2-3 are a direct result of the bit
patterns shown. All other bit patterns produce pin
states that should not be decoded to enable any
drive or motor.
This bit selects the primary or secondary FDC address. (See Table 2-4.)
When this bit is a one the IDE drive interface can be
accessed at the address specified by FER bit 7.
When it is zero, bit 0 of PMC determines whether the
HCS0,1 pins are inactive, or in TRI-STATE. IDEHI
and IDEHLO are inactive and IDED7 is in TRISTATE.
This bit selects the primary or secondary IDE address. (See Table 2-4).

Note: When FER4 e 1, MTR1 presents a pulse that is the inverted image of the IOW strobe. This inverted pulse is active whenever an I/O write to address 3F2h or
372h takes place. This pulse is delayed by 25 ns–80 ns after the leading edge of IOW and its leading edge can be used to clock data into an external latch (e.g.,
74LS175). Address 3F2h is used if the FDC is located at the primary address (FER5 e 0) and address 372h is used if the FDC is located at the secondary address
(FER5 e 1).

2.5.3 Power and Test Register (PTR, Index e 02h)
This register determines several power-down features: the
power-down method used when the power-down pin
(PWDN) is asserted (crystal and clocks vs clocks only),
whether hardware power-down is enabled, and provides a
bit for software power-down of all enabled functions. It selects whether IRQ7 or IRQ5 is associated with LPTB. It puts
the enabled UARTs into their test mode.
Independent of this register the floppy disk controller can
enter low power mode via the Mode Command or the Data
Rate Select Register.
Bit 0 Setting this bit causes all enabled functions to be
powered down. If the crystal power-down option is selected (see Bit 1) the crystal is also powered down. All
register data is retained when the crystal or clocks are
stopped.
Bit 1 When the power-down pin or Bit 0 is asserted this bit
determines whether the enabled functions have their
internal clocks stopped (Bit 1 e 0) or the external
crystal (Bit 1 e 1) is stopped. Stopping the crystal is
the lowest power consumption state of the part. However, if the crystal is stopped, a finite amount of time
( E 8 ms) is required for crystal stabilization once the
power-down pin (PWDN) or Bit 0 is deasserted. If all
internal clocks are stopped, but the crystal continues
to oscillate, no stabilization period is required after the
power-down pin or Bit 0 is deasserted.
Bit 2 Setting this bit enables the chip select function of the
PWDN/CSOUT pin. Resetting this bit enables the
power-down function of this pin. Sync pin is sampled
during reset to this bit.

2.0 Configuration Registers (Continued)
Bit 3 Setting this bit associates the parallel port with IRQ7
when the address for the parallel port is 378 – 37Fh
(LPTB). This bit is a ‘‘don’t care’’ when the parallel
port address is 3BC–3BEh (LPTA) or 278 – 27Fh
(LPTC).
Bit 4 Setting this bit puts UART1 into a test mode, which
causes its Baud Out clock to be present on its SOUT1
pin if the Line Control Register bit 7 is set to 1.
Bit 5 Setting this bit puts UART2 into a test mode, which
causes its Baud Out clock to be present on its SOUT2
pin if the Line Control Register bit 7 is set to 1.
Bit 6 Setting this bit to a 1 prevents all further write accesses to the Configuration Registers. Once it is set by
software it can only be cleared by a hardware reset.
After the initial hardware reset it is 0.
Bit 7 When not in EPP or ECP modes, this bit controls
Compatible/Extended mode, thus controlling Pulse/
Level interrupt.
Set this bit to 0 for Compatible mode, Pulse Interrupt.
Set this bit to 1 for Extended mode, Level Interrupt.
Bit 4
Logical Drive Exchange bit. This bit allows software
to exchange the physical floppy-disk control signals, assigned to drives 0 and 1, thus exchanging
the logical drives A and B.
This is accomplished by exchanging control of the
DR0 and MTR0 pins with the DR1 and MTR1 pins.
The result is undefined if this bit is set while bit 4 of
FER is 1. Table 2-9 shows the associations between the Configuration Register bit, the Digital
Output Register bits (DRVSEL0,1 and MTR0,1) and
the drive and motor control pins (DR0,1 and
MTR0,1). When bit 2 of ASC Register is 1, the logical drive exchange function is controlled by bits 2
and 3 of TDR.

3. Clear PTR bit 1 and then set PTR bit 0 (power-down)
high. See Section 2.5.3 PTR bits 0 and 1.
1: Pin 2 is CS0 output. The PC87303 assumes
that CS input is 1, thus bit 6 of KRR must be 1
to access the KBC.
Mode 3: The external crystal is stopped and internal clocks
are stopped for all enabled functions.
This mode is entered by any of the following actions:
1. Clear all FER bits that enable the FDC, UART1, and
UART2 functions. See Section 2.5.1 FER bits 1 – 3.
2. Set PTR bit 1 (XTAL/CLK), clear PTR bit 2 (CSOUT/

2.7 POWER-UP PROCEDURE AND CONSIDERATIONS
2.7.1 Crystal Stabilization
If the crystal is stopped by putting either the FDC or the
UARTs into low power mode, then a finite amount of time
( E 8 ms) must be allowed for crystal stabilization during
subsequent power-up. The stabilization period can be
sensed by reading the Main Status Register in the FDC, if
the FDC is being powered up. (The Request for Master bit is
not set for E 8 ms.) If either one of the UARTs are being
powered up, but the FDC is not, then the software must
determine the E 8 ms crystal stabilization period. Stabilization of the crystal can also be sensed by putting the UART
into local loopback mode and sending bytes until they are
received correctly.
Enable CS1 assertion on read cycles.
Enable full address-decoding.
0: Decode only address bits A9–A0. Ignore address bit A10.
1: Decode address bits A10–A0
CS1 Select Bit.
0: Pin 23 is SYSCLK.
1: Pin 23 is CS1 output. The PC87303 assumes
that SYSCLK input is 1, thus bit 7 of KRR must
be 0 to operate the KBC.
2.7.2 UART Power-Up
The clock signal to the UARTs is controlled through the
Configuration Registers (FER, PTR). In order to restore the
clock signal to one or both UARTs the following conditions
must exist:
1. The appropriate enable bit (FER 1,2) for the UART(s)
must be set
2. and the power-down bit (PTR 0) must not be set
3. and if the PWDN pin option (PTR 2) is used the
CSOUT/PDWN pin must be inactive.
If the crystal has been stopped follow the guidelines in Section 2.7.1 before sending data or signalling that the receiver
channel is ready.
2.6 POWER-DOWN OPTIONS
There are various methods for entering the power-down
mode. All methods result in one of three possible modes.
This section associates the methods of entering powerdown with the resulting mode.
Mode 1: The internal clock stops for a specific function (i.e.,
UART1 and/or UART2 and/or FDC).
This mode is entered by any of the following actions:
1. Clear the FER bit for the specific function that is powered
down. See Section 2.5.1 FER bits 1–3.
2. During reset, set certain CFG 0–4 pins. See Table 2-1.
3. Execute the FDC Mode Command with PTR bit 1 e 0
(XTAL/CLK). See Section 4.2.6 LOW PWR.
4. Set Data Rate Select Register bit 6, in the FDC, high, with
PTR bit 1 e 0. See Section 3.6 bit 6.
Mode 2: The internal clocks are stopped for all enabled
functions.
2.7.3 FDC Power-Up
The clock signal to the FDC is controlled through the Configuration Registers, the FDC Mode Command and the Data
Rate Select Register. In order to restore the clock signal to
the FDC the following conditions must exist:
1. The appropriate enable bit (FER 3) must be set
2. and the power-down bit (PTR 0) must not be set
3. and if the PWDN pin option (PTR 2) is used the
CSOUT/PDWN pin must be inactive.
In addition to these conditions, one of the following must be
done to initiate the recovery from power-down mode:
1. Read the Main Status Register until the RQM bit (MSR7)
is set or
Note: Clocks to disabled functions are always inactive.
This mode is entered by any of the following actions:
1. Clear all FER bits for any enabled function. See Section
2.5.1 FER bits 1–3.
2. Clear PTR bits 1 (XTAL/CLK) and 2 (CSOUT/PWDN select). Then assert the PWDN signal low. See Section
2.5.3 PTR bits 1,2 and Section 1.0 PWDN pin.
26
The FDC supports the standard PC data rate drives of 250/
500 kbps, 300/500 kbps, and 1 Mbps in MFM-encoded data
mode, but is no longer guaranteed through functional testing to support the older FM encoded data mode. References to the older FM mode remain in this document to
clarify the true functional operation of the device.
The 1 Mbps data rate is used by the high performance tape
and floppy drives. The FDC supports these floppy drives
which utilize high density media, and require the perpendicular recording mode format. When used with the 1 Mbps
data rate, this new format allows the use of 4 MB floppy
drives which format Extra Density (ED) media to 2.88 MB
capacity.
The high performance internal analog data separator needs
no external components. It improves on the window margin
performance standards of the DP8473, and is compatible
with the strict data separator requirements of floppy disk
and floppy-tape drives.
The FDC contains write precompensation circuitry that defaults to 125 ns for 250 kbps, 300 kbps, and 500 kbps and
to 41.67 ns for 1 Mbps. These values can be overridden in
software to disable write precompensatoin or to provide levels of precompensation up to 250 ns.
2.0 Configuration Registers (Continued)
2. Write to the Data Rate Select Register and set the Software Reset bit (DSR7) or
3. Write to the Digital Output Register, set and then clear
the Reset bit (DOR2) or
4. Read the Data Register and the Main Status Register
until the RQM bit is set.
If the crystal has been stopped, read the RQM bit in the
Main Status Register until it is set. The RQM bit is not set
until the crystal has stabilized.
3.0 FDC Register Description
The floppy disk controller is suitable for all PC-AT, EISA,
PS/2, and general purpose applications. The operational
mode (PC-AT, PS/2, and Model 30) of the FDC is determined by bits 7, 6 of ASC register. AT mode is the default.
DP8473 and N82077 software compatibility is provided. Key
features include a 16-byte FIFO, PS/2 diagnostic register
support, perpendicular recording mode, CMOS disk interface, and a high performance analog data separator. See
Figure 3-1 .

3.1 FDC CONTROL REGISTERS
The following FDC registers are mapped into the addresses
shown in Table 3-1 and described in the following sections.
The base address range is provided by the on-chip address
decoder pin. For PC-AT or PS/2 applications, the diskette
controller primary address range is 3F0 to 3F7h, and the
secondary address range is 370 to 377h. The FDC supports
three different register modes: the PC-AT mode, PS/2
mode (Micro Channel systems), and the Model 30 mode
(Model 30). See Section 5.2 for more details on how each
register mode is enabled. When applicable, the register definition for each mode of operation is given. If no special
notes are made, then the register is valid for all three register modes.

Reset Controller: Writing a 0 to this bit resets the

the DSR, CCR, and other bits of the DOR. A software reset affects the Configure and Mode command bits (see Section 4.0 FDC Command Set Description). The minimum time that this bit must be
low is 100 ns. Thus, toggling the Reset Controller bit
during consecutive writes to the DOR is an acceptable method of issuing a software reset.
D1, D0 Drive Select: These two bits are binary encoded for
the four drive selects DR0 – DR3, so that only one
drive select output is active at a time. (See bit 4 of

3.1.4 Tape Drive Register (TDR)
Read/Write
The TDR register is the Tape Drive Register and the floppy
disk controller media and drive type register. The register
has three modes of operation (see Table 3-3):
Compatible PC-AT TDR mode. The register is used to assign a particular drive number to the tape drive support
mode of the data separator. All other logical drives can be
assigned as floppy drive support. Bits 2 – 7 are TRI-STATE
during read.
Automatic Media Sense mode. Bits 5 – 7 are implemented,
in addition to the bits of the Compatible PC-AT TDR mode.
Bits 2 – 4 are reserved.
Enhanced mode. This is the PS/2 TDR mode. It uses all
the register’s bits for operation with PS/2 floppy drives.
The use of the TDR bits, for each of these modes, is shown
in Table 3-3.

3.1.5 Main Status Register (MSR)
3.1.6 Data Rate Select Register (DSR)
Read Only
Write Only
The read-only Main Status Register indicates the current
status of the disk controller. The Main Status Register is
always available to be read. One of its functions is to control
the flow of data to and from the Data Register (FIFO). The
Main Status Register indicates when the disk controller is
ready to send or receive data through the Data Register. It
should be read before each byte is transferred to or from
the Data Register except during a DMA transfer. No delay is
required when reading this register after a data transfer.
After a hardware or software reset, or recovery from a power-down state, the Main Status Register is immediately
available to be read by the mP. It contains a value of 00h
until the oscillator circuit has stabilized, and the internal registers have been initialized. When the FDC is ready to receive a new command, it reports an 80h to the mP. The
system software can poll the MSR until it is ready. The worst
case time allowed for the MSR to report an 80h value (RQM
set) is 2.5 ms after reset or power up.
This write-only register is used to program the data rate,
amount of write precompensation, power-down mode, and
software reset. The data rate is programmed via the CCR,
not the DSR, for PC-AT and PS/2 Model 30 and MicroChannel applications. Other applications can set the data rate in
the DSR. The data rate of the floppy controller is determined by the most recent write to either the DSR or CCR.
The DSR is unaffected by a software reset. A hardware reset sets the DSR to 02h, which corresponds to the default
precompensation setting and 250 kbps.

Request for Master: Indicates that the controller is

the FIFO. This bit is cleared immediately after a byte
transfer and is set again as soon as the disk controller is ready for the next byte. During a Non-DMA
Execution phase, the RQM indicates the status of
the interrupt pin.
Data I/O (Direction): Indicates whether the controller is expecting a byte to be written to (0) or read
from (1) the Data Register.
Non-DMA Execution: Indicates that the controller
is in the Execution Phase of a byte transfer operation in the Non-DMA mode. This mode can be used
for multiple byte transfers by the mP in the Execution Phase via interrupts or software polling.
Command in Progress: This bit is set after the first
byte of the Command Phase is written. This bit is
cleared after the last byte of the Result Phase is
read. If there is no Result Phase in a command, the
bit is cleared after the last byte of the Command
Phase is written.

Maximum Allowable Data Transfer Service Time
(THRESH a 1) c 8 c tDRP b (16 c tICP)
This formula is good for all data rates with the FIFO enabled
or disabled. THRESH is a four bit value programmed in the
Configure command, which sets the FIFO threshold. If the
FIFO is disabled, THRESH is zero in the above formula. The
last term of the formula, (16 c tICP) is an inherent delay due
to the microcode overhead required by the FDC. This delay
is also data rate dependent. See Table 9-1 for the tDRP and
tICP times. See Section 11.2.2 for a description of tDRP and
tICP.
The programmable FIFO threshold (THRESH) is useful in
adjusting the floppy controller to the speed of the system. In
other words, a slow system with a sluggish DMA transfer
capability uses a high value of THRESH, giving the system
more time to respond to a data transfer service request
(FDRQ for DMA mode or IRQ6 for Interrupt mode). Conversely, a fast system with quick response to a data transfer
service request would use a low value of THRESH.

3.1.7 Data Register (FIFO)
Read/Write
The FIFO (read/write) is used to transfer all commands,
data, and status between the mP and the FDC. During the
Command Phase, the mP writes the command bytes into the
FIFO after polling the RQM and DIO bits in the MSR. During
the Result Phase, the mP reads the result bytes from the
FIFO after polling the RQM and DIO bits in the MSR.
Enabling the FIFO, and setting the FIFO threshold, is done
via the Configure command. If the FIFO is enabled, only the
Execution Phase byte transfers use the 16 byte FIFO. The
FIFO is always disabled during the Command and Result
Phases of a controller operation. A software reset will not
disable enabled FIFO if the LOCK bit is set in the Lock
Command. After a hardware reset, the FIFO is disabled to
maintain compatibility with PC-AT systems.
The 16-byte FIFO can be used for DMA, Interrupt, or software polling type transfers during the execution of a read,
write, format, or scan command. In addition, the FIFO can
be put into a Burst or Non-Burst mode with the Mode command. In the Burst mode, FDRQ or IRQ6 remains active
until all of the bytes have been transferred to or from the
FIFO. In the Non-Burst mode, FDRQ or IRQ6 is deasserted
for 350 ns to allow higher priority transfer requests to be
serviced. The Mode command can also disable the FIFO for
either reads or writes separately. The FIFO allows the system a larger latency without causing a disk overrun/underrun error. The FIFO is typically used with multitasking operating systems and/or when running systems at
or above a 1 Mbps data rate. In its default state, the FIFO is
disabled and contains a zero threshold. The default state is
entered after a hardware reset.
3.1.8 Digital Input Register (DIR)
Read Only
This diagnostic register is used to detect the state of the
DSKCHG disk interface input and some diagnostic signals.
The function of this register depends on its mode of operation. When in the PC-AT mode, the D6 – D0 are TRI-STATE
to avoid conflict with the fixed disk status register at the
same address. DIR is unaffected by a software reset.

4.0 FDC Command Set Description
This section presents the FDC command setÐfull description in Section 4.1 and a working summary in Section 4.2.
Each command contains a unique first command byte, the
opcode byte, which tells the controller how many (0 or
more) command bytes to expect. The information for each
command is displayed using the structure shown in Figure
4-1 .
If an invalid command byte is issued to the controller, it
immediately enters the Result Phase and the status is 80h
signifying an Invalid Command.

Control Mark: Controller tried to read a sector
which contained a deleted data address mark during execution of Read Data or Scan commands. Or,
if a Read Deleted Data command was executed, a
regular address mark was detected.
CRC Error in Data Field: Controller detected a
CRC error in the Data Field. Bit 5 of ST1 is also set.
Wrong Track: Only set if desired sector is not
found, and the track number recorded on any sector
of the current track is different from the track address specified in the Command Phase.
Scan Equal Hit: ‘‘Equal’’ condition satisfied during
any Scan command.
Scan Not Satisfied: Controller cannot find a sector
on the track which meets the desired condition during any Scan command.
Bad Track: Only set if the desired sector is not
found, the track number recorded on any sector on
the track is FF (hex) indicating a hard error in IBM
format, and is different from the track address specified in the Command Phase.

4.1 COMMAND DESCRIPTIONS
4.1.1 Configure Command
The Configure Command controls some operation modes of
the controller. It should be issued during the initialization of
the FDC after power-up. These bits are set to their default
values after a hardware reset. The value of each bit after a
software reset is explained. The default value of each bit is
denoted by a ‘‘bullet’’ to the left of each item.
34
4.0 FDC Command Set Description (Continued)
The sixth byte of the result phase varies depending on what
commands have been previously executed. If a format command has previously been issued, and no reads or writes
have been issued since then, this byte contains the Sectors
per track value. If a read or a write command has been
executed more recently than a format command, this byte
contains the End of Track value. The LOCK bit is set in the
Lock command. The eighth result byte also contains the bits
programmed in the Perpendicular Mode command. The last
two bytes of the Dumpreg Result Phase are set in the Configure command. After a hardware or software reset, the
parameters in the result bytes are set to their appropriate
default values.

verify operation. A seek and sense interrupt operation is performed prior to the execution of the
read, write, scan, or verify operation. The IPS bit
does not need to be set.
FIFO: Enable FIFO for Execution Phase data transfers. Default after a software reset if the LOCK bit is 0. If the

THRESH retains its value. A high value of
THRESH is suited for slow response systems,
and a low value of THRESH is better for fast response systems.
PRETRK: Starting track number for write precompensation.
Programmable from track 0 (‘‘00’’) to track 255
(‘‘FF’’). Defaults to track 0 (‘‘00’’) after a software

4.1.3 Format Track Command
This command formats one track on the disk in IBM, ISO, or
Perpendicular format. After the index hole is detected, data
patterns are written on the disk including all gaps, Address
Marks, Address Fields, and Data Fields. The exact format is
determined by the following parameters:
1. The MFM bit in the Opcode (first command) byte, which
determines the format of the Address Marks and the encoding scheme.
2. The IAF bit in the Mode command, which selects between IBM and ISO format.
3. The WGATE and GAP bits in the Perpendicular Mode
command, which select between the conventional and
Toshiba Perpendicular format.
4. The Bytes per Sector code, which determines the sector
size.
5. The Sector per Track parameter, which determines how
many sectors are formatted on the track.
6. The Data Pattern byte, which is used as the filler byte in
the Data Field of each sector.
4.1.2 Dumpreg Command
The Dumpreg command is designed to support system runtime diagnostics, application software development and debug. This command has a one-byte command phase and a
10-byte result phase. The Result Phase returns the values
of parameters set in other commands. That is, the PTR
(Present Track Register) contains the least significant byte
of the track the microcode has stored for each drive. The
Step Rate Time, Motor Off and Motor On Times, and the
DMA bit are all set in the Specify command.
35
4.0 FDC Command Set Description (Continued)
To allow for flexible formatting, the mP must supply the four
Address Field bytes (track, head, sector, bytes per sector
code) for each sector formatted during the Execution
Phase. This allows for non-sequential sector interleaving.
This transfer of bytes from the mP to the controller can be
done in the DMA or Non-DMA mode, with the FIFO enabled
or disabled.
The Format Gap byte in the Command Phase is dependent
on the data rate and type of disk drive, and controls the
length of GAP3. Some typical values for the programmable
GAP3 are given in Table 4-1. Figure 4-2 shows the track
format for each of the formats recognized by the format
command. Table 4-2 shows some typical values for the Format GAP3 based on media type. The Format command terminates when the index hole is detected a second time, at
which point an interrupt is generated. Only the first three
status bytes in the Result Phase are significant.

TMR: Motor Timer mode. Default after a software reset.
4.1.4 Invalid Command
# 0 e Timers for motor on and motor off are defined
If an invalid command (illegal Opcode byte in the Command
Phase) is received by the controller, the controller responds
with ST0 in the Result Phase. The controller does not generate an interrupt during this condition. Bits 6 and 7 in the
MSR are both set to a 1, indicating to the mP that the controller is in the Result Phase and the contents of ST0 must
be read. The system reads an 80h value from ST0 indicating
an invalid command was received.

Configure command.
Status Register 0 (80h)
1 e The IPS bit in the command byte of a read, write,
scan, or verify is enabled so that if it is set, the
controller performs seek and sense interrupt operations before executing the command.
4.1.5 Lock Command
The Lock command allows the user full control of the FIFO
parameters after a software reset. If the LOCK bit is set to 1,
then the FIFO, THRESH, and PRETRK bits in the Configure
command are not affected by a software reset. In addition,
the FWR, FRD, and BST bits in the Mode command are
unaffected by a software reset. If the LOCK is 0 (default
after a hardware reset), then the above bits are set to their
default values after a software reset. This command is useful if the system designer wishes to keep the FIFO enabled
and retain the other FIFO parameter values (such as
THRESH) after a software reset.
After the command byte is written, the result byte must be
read before continuing to the next command. The execution
of the Lock command is not performed until the result byte
is read by the mP. If the part is reset after the command byte
is written but before the result byte is read, then the Lock
command execution is not performed. This is done to prevent accidental execution of the Lock command.
LOW
PWR: Low Power mode. Default after a software reset.
# 00 e Completely disable the low power mode.
01 e Automatic low power. For 500 kbps operation,
go into low power mode 512 ms after the head
unload timer times out. For 250 kbps operation
the timeout period is doubled to 1s.
10 e Manual low power. Go into low power mode
now.
11 e Not used.
ETR: Extended Track Range. Default after a software reset.
# 0 e Track number is stored as a standard 8-bit value

set, an extra byte is required in the Seek Command Phase and Sense Interrupt Result Phase.

function is described below. These bits are set to their default values after a hardware reset. The default value of
each bit is denoted by a ‘‘bullet’’ to the left of each item. The
value of each parameter after a software reset is explained.
Note: This bit is only valid if the FIFO is enabled in the Configure
command. If the FIFO is not enabled in the Configure command, then this bit is a don’t care.

e 1, controller issues 4095 maximum recalibrate step pulses.
DENSEL: Density Select Pin Configuration. This 2-bit value
configures the Density Select output to one of
three possible modes. The default mode configures the DENSEL pin according to the state of
the IDENT input pin after a data rate has been
selected. That is, if IDENT is high, the DENSEL
pin is active high for the 500 kbps/1 Mbps data
rates. If IDENT is low, the DENSEL pin is active
low for the 500 kbps/1 Mbps data rates. See Table 4-3. In addition to these modes, the DENSEL
output can be set to always low or always high, as
shown in Table 4-4. This allows the user more
flexibility with new drive types.

4.0 FDC Command Set Description (Continued)
Perpendicular Recording drives operate in ‘‘Extra High Density’’ mode at 1 Mbps and are downward compatible with
1.44 Mbyte and 720 kbyte drives at 500 kbps (High Density)
and 250 kbps (Double Density) respectively. If perpendicular
drives are present in the system, this command should be
issued during initialization of the floppy controller, which
configures each drive as perpendicular or conventional.
Then, when a drive is accessed for a Format or Write Data
command, the floppy controller adjusts the Format or Write
Data parameters based on the data rate selected (see Table 4-6).
4.1.8 Perpendicular Mode Command
The Perpendicular Mode command is designed to support
the unique Format and Write Data requirements of Perpendicular (Vertical) Recording disk drives (4 Mbyte unformatted capacity). The Perpendicular Mode command configures each of the four logical drives as a perpendicular or
conventional disk drive. Configuration of the four logical disk
drives is done via the D3–0 bits, or with the GAP and WG
control bits. This command should be issued during the initialization of the floppy controller.

on the bytes per sector code. In addition, the End of Track
Sector Number (EOT) should be specified, allowing the controller to read multiple sectors. The Data Length byte is a
don’t care and should be set to FFh.
Looking at the second command byte, DC3–0 corresponds
to the four logical drives.
A 0 written to DCn sets drive n to conventional mode, and a
1 sets drive n to perpendicular mode. The OW (Overwrite)
bit offers additional control. When OW e 1, the values of
DC3 – 0 (drive configuration bits) are changeable. When OW
e 0, the internal values of DC3–0 are unaffected, regardless of what is written to DC3–0.
The function of the DCn bits must also be qualified by setting both WG and GAP to 0. If WG and GAP are used (i.e.,
not set to 00), they override whatever is programmed in the
DCn bits. Table 4-7 indicates the operation of the FDC
based on the values of GAP and WG. Note that when GAP
and WG are both 0, the DCn bits are used to configure each
logical drive as conventional or perpendicular. DC3 – 0 is unaffected by a software reset, but WG and GAP are both
cleared to 0 after a software reset. A hardware reset resets
all the bits to zero (conventional mode for all drives). The
Perpendicular Mode command bits may be rewritten at any
time.

The controller then starts the Data Separator and waits for
the Data Separator to find the next sector Address Field.
The controller compares the Address Field ID information
(track, head, sector, bytes per sector) with the desired ID
specified in the Command Phase. If the sector ID bytes do
not match, then the controller waits for the Data Separator
to find the next sector Address Field. The ID comparison
process repeats until the Data Separator finds a sector Address Field ID that matches that in the command bytes, or
until an error occurs. Possible errors are:
1. The mP aborted the command by writing to the FIFO. If
there is no disk in the drive, the controller hangs up. The
mP must then take the controller out of this hung state by
writing a byte to the FIFO. This puts the controller into the
Result Phase.
2. Two index pulses were detected since the search began,
and no valid ID has been found. If the track address ID
differs, the WT bit or BT bit (if the track address is FFh) is
set in ST2. If the head, sector, or bytes per sector code
did not match, the ND bit is set in ST1. If the Address
Field AM was never found, the MA bit is set in ST1.
3. The Address Field was found with a CRC error. The CE
bit is set in ST1.
Once the desired sector Address Field is found, the controller waits for the Data Separator to find the subsequent Data
Field for that sector. If the Data Field (normal or deleted) is
not found within the expected time, the controller terminates
the operation and enters the Result Phase (MD is set in
ST2). If a Deleted Data Mark is found and Skip Flag (SK)
was set in the Opcode command byte, the controller skips
this sector and searches for the next sector Address Field
as described above. The effect of SK on the Read Data
command is summarized in Table 4-9.
Note: When in the Perpendicular Mode for any drive at any data rate selected by the DC3–0 bits, write precompensation is set to zero.
Perpendicular Recording type disk drives have a Pre-Erase
Head which leads the Read/Write Head by 200 mm, which
translates to 38 bytes at the 1 Mbps data transfer rate (19
bytes at 500 kbps). The increased spacing between the two
heads requires a larger GAP2 between the Address Field
and Data Field of a sector at 1 Mbps. (See Perpendicular
Format in Table 4-1.) This GAP2 length of 41 bytes (at
1 Mbps) ensures that the Preamble in the Data Field is completely ‘‘pre-erased’’ by the Pre-Erase Head. Also, during
Write Data operations to a perpendicular drive, a portion of
GAP2 must be rewritten by the controller to guarantee that
the Data Field Preamble has been pre-erased (see Table
4-6).
4.1.9 Read Data Command
The Read Data command reads logical sectors containing a
Normal Data Address Mark (AM) from the selected drive
and makes the data available to the host mP. After the last
Command Phase byte is written, the controller simulates the
Motor On time for the selected drive internally. The user
must turn on the drive motor directly by enabling the appropriate drive and motor select disk interface outputs with the
Digital Output Register (DOR).
If Implied Seeks are enabled, the controller performs a Seek
operation to the track number specified in the Command
Phase. The controller also issues a Sense Interrupt for the
seek and waits the Head Settle time specified in the Mode
command.
The correct ID information (track, head, sector, bytes per
sector) for the desired sector must be specified in the command bytes. See Table 4-8 Sector Size Selection for details
41
4.0 FDC Command Set Description (Continued)
Having found the Data Field, the controller then transfers
data bytes from the disk drive to the host (described in
Section 5.3 Controller Phases) until the bytes per sector
count has been reached, or the host terminates the operation (through TC, end of track, or implicitly through overrun).
The controller then generates the CRC for the sector and
compares this value with the CRC at the end of the Data
Field.
Having finished reading the sector, the controller continues
reading the next logical sector unless one or more of the
following termination conditions occurred:
1. The DMA controller asserted TC. The IC bits in ST0 are
set to Normal Termination.
2. The last sector address (of side 1 if MT was set) was
equal to EOT. The EOT bit in ST1 is set. The IC bits in
ST0 are set to Abnormal Termination. This is the expected condition during Non-DMA transfers.
3. Overrun error. The OR bit in ST1 is set. The IC bits in ST0
are set to Abnormal Termination. If the mP cannot service
a transfer request in time, the last correctly read byte is
transferred.
4. CRC error. The CE bit in ST1 and the CD bit in ST2 are
set. The IC bits in ST0 are set to Abnormal Termination.
If Multi-Track Selector (MT) was set in the Opcode command byte, and the last sector of side 0 has been transferred, the controller then continues with side 1.
Upon terminating the Execution Phase of the Read Data
command, the controller asserts IRQ6, indicating the beginning of the Result Phase. The mP must then read the result
bytes from the FIFO. The values that are read back in the
result bytes are shown in Table 4-10. If an error occurs, the
result bytes indicate the sector read when the error occurred.

After waiting the Motor On time, the controller starts the
Data Separator and waits for the Data Separator to find the
next sector Address Field. If an error condition occurs, the
IC bits in ST0 are set to Abnormal Termination, and the
controller enters the Result Phase. Possible errors are:
1. The mP aborted the command by writing to the FIFO. If
there is no disk in the drive, the controller hangs up. The
mP must then take the controller out of this hung state by
writing a byte to the FIFO. This puts the controller into the
Result Phase.
2. Two index pulses were detected since the search began,
and no AM has been found. If the Address Field AM was
never found, the MA bit is set in ST1.
4.1.10 Read Deleted Data Command
The Read Deleted Data command reads logical sectors
containing a Deleted Data AM from the selected drive and
makes the data available to the host mP. This command is
identical to the Read Data command, except for the setting
of the CM bit in ST2 and the skipping of sectors. The effect
of SK on the Read Deleted Data command is summarized in
Table 4-11. See Table 4-10 for the state of the result bytes
for a Normal Termination of the command.

4.1.12 Read A Track Command
The Read A Track command reads sectors in physical order
from the selected drive and makes the data available to the
host. This command is similar to the Read Data command
with the following exceptions:
1. The controller waits for the index pulse before searching
for a sector Address Field. If the mP writes to the FIFO
before the index pulse, the command enters the Result
Phase with the IC bits in ST0 set to Abnormal Termination.
2. A comparison of the sector Address Field ID bytes will be
performed, except for the sector number. The internal
sector address is set to 1, and then incremented for each
successive sector read.

4.1.11 Read ID Command
The Read ID command finds the next available Address
Field and returns the ID bytes (track, head, sector, bytes per
sector) to the mP in the Result Phase. There is no data
transfer during the Execution Phase of this command. An
interrupt is generated when the Execution Phase is completed.
The controller first simulates the Motor On time for the selected drive internally. The user must turn on the drive motor
directly by enabling the appropriate drive and motor select
disk interface outputs with the Digital Output Register
(DOR). The Read ID command does not perform an implied
seek.
43
4.0 FDC Command Set Description (Continued)
After the last command byte is issued, the DRx BUSY bit is
set in the MSR for the selected drive. The controller will
simulate the Motor On time, and then enter the Idle Phase.
The execution of the actual step pulses occur while the controller is in the Drive Polling Phase. An interrupt will be generated after the TRK0 signal is asserted, or after the maximum number of recalibrate step pulses are issued. There is
no Result Phase. Recalibrates should not be issued on
more than one drive at a time. This is because the drives are
actually selected via the DOR, which can only select one
drive at a time. No other command except the Sense Interrupt command should be issued while a Recalibrate command is in progress.
3. If the Address Field ID comparison fails, the controller
sets ND in ST1, but continues to read the sector. If there
is a CRC error in the Address Field, the controller sets CE
in ST1, but continues to read the sector.
4. Multi-track and Skip operations are not allowed. SK and
MT should be set to 0.
5. If there is a CRC error in the Data Field, the controller
sets CE in ST1 and CD in ST2, but continues reading
sectors.
6. The controller reads a maximum of EOT physical sectors.
There is no support for multi-track reads.

The Relative Seek parameters are defined as follows:
DIR: Read/Write Head Step Direction Control
0 e Step Head Out

RTN: Relative Track Number. This value will determine how
many incremental tracks to step the head in or out
from the current track number.
The controller will issue RTN number of step pulses and
update the Present Track Register for the selected drive.
The one exception to this is if the TRK0 disk input goes
active, which indicates that the drive read/write head is at
the outermost track. In this case, the step pulses for the
Relative Seek are terminated, and the PTR value is set according to the actual number of step pulses issued. The
arithmetic is done modulo 255. The DRx BUSY bit in the
MSR is set for the selected drive. The controller will simulate the Motor On time before issuing the step pulses. After
the Motor On time, the controller will enter the Idle Phase.
The execution of the actual step pulses occurs in the Idle
Phase of the controller.
After the step operation is complete, the controller will generate an interrupt. There is no Result Phase. Relative Seeks
should not be issued on more than one drive at a time. This
is because the drives are actually selected via the DOR,
which can only select one drive at a time. No other command except the Sense Interrupt command should be issued while a Relative Seek command is in progress.

4.1.13 Recalibrate Command
The Recalibrate command is very similar to the Seek command. The controller sets the Present Track Register (PTR)
of the selected drive to zero. It then steps the head of the
selected drive out until the TRK0 disk interface input signal
goes active, or until the maximum number of step pulses
have been issued. See Table 4-12 for the maximum recalibrate step pulse values based on the R255 and ETR bits in
the Mode command. If the number of tracks on the disk
drive exceeds the maximum number of recalibrate step
pulses, another Recalibrate command may need to be issued.

4.1.15 Scan Commands
SCAN EQUAL
The Scan commands allow data read from the disk to be
compared against data sent from the mP, using ones complement arithmetic, sector by sector.
There are three Scan commands to choose from:
1. Scan Equal: checks to see if the scanned value of the
disk data is equal to that of the mP data. The scan condition is therefore: disk data e mP data?
2. Scan Low or Equal: checks to see if the scanned value of the disk data is equal to or less than that of the mP
data. The scan condition is therefore: disk data s data?
3. Scan High or Equal: checks to see if the scanned value of the disk data is equal to or greater than that of the
mP data. The scan condition is therefore: disk data t
mP data?
The results of these comparisons are indicated in the Status
Register bits 3 and 2, see Table 4-13, and the structure of
the three commands follows.
Each sector is compared starting with the most significant
bytes first, and where the next sector is defined as the current Sector Number plus the Sector Step Size. Reading of
sectors continues until either the scan condition is met, the
End of Track (EOT) has been reached, or the Terminal
Count (TC) is asserted.
If the Wildcard mode is enabled in the Mode command, an
FFh from either the disk or the mP is used as a don’t care
byte that will always match equal. Read errors on the disk
will have the same error conditions as the Read Data command.
Additionally, if the Skip Flag (SK) bit is set, sectors with
deleted data marks will be ignored. If all sectors read are
skipped, the command will terminate with bit 3 of the Status
Register set (mimicking a Scan Equal Hit).

4.1.16 Seek Command
The Seek command steps the selected drive in or out until
the desired track number is reached. During the Execution
Phase of the Seek command, the track number to seek to is
compared with the present track number. The controller will
determine how many step pulses to issue, and the DIR disk
interface output will indicate which direction the R/W head
should move. The DRx BUSY bit is set in the MSR for the
appropriate drive. The controller will wait the Motor On time
before issuing the first step pulse.
After the Motor On time, the controller will enter the Idle
Phase. The execution of the actual step pulses occurs in the
Drive Polling phase of the controller. The step pulse rate is
determined by the value programmed in the Specify command. An interrupt will be generated one step pulse period
after the last step pulse is issued. A Sense Interrupt command should be issued to determine the cause of the interrupt. There is no Result Phase.
While the internal microengine is capable of performing
seek commands on 2 or more drives at the same time, software should ensure that only one drive is seeking at a time.
This is because the drives are actually selected via the
DOR, which can only select one drive at a time. No other
command except a Sense Interrupt command should be issued while a Seek command is in progress.
If the extended track range mode is enabled with the ETR
bit in the Mode command, a fourth command byte should be
written in the Command Phase to indicate the four most
significant bits of the desired track number. Otherwise, only
three command bytes should be written.

1. Entry into the Result Phase of any of the following commands:
a. Read Data
b. Read Deleted Data
c. Read a Track
d. Read ID
e. Write Data
f. Write Deleted Data
g. Format
h. Scan

2. Occurrence of a data transfer in the Execution Phase
while in the Non-DMA mode.
46
4.0 FDC Command Set Description (Continued)
3. The Ready Signal changed state during the polling mode
for an internally selected drive. (Occurs only after a hardware or software reset.)
4. A Seek, Relative Seek, or Recalibrate command terminates.
An interrupt due to reasons 1 or 2 does not require the
Sense Interrupt command and is cleared automatically. This
type of interrupt occurs during normal command operations
and is easily discernible by the mP via the MSR. It is cleared
when reading or writing information from or to the Data Register (FIFO).
An interrupt caused by reasons 3 or 4 is identified with the
aid of the Sense Interrupt command. This type of interrupt is
cleared after the first result byte has been read. Use bits 5,
6, and 7 of ST0 to identify the cause of the interrupt as
shown in Table 4-14.
Issuing a Sense Interrupt command without an interrupt
pending is treated as an Invalid command. If the extended
track range mode is enabled, a third byte should be read in
the Result Phase, which will indicate the four most significant bits of the present track number. Otherwise, only two
result bytes should be read.

4.1.19 Set Track Command
This command is used to inspect or change the value of the
internal Present Track Register. This can be useful for recovery from disk mistracking errors, where the real current
track can be read through the Read ID command, and then
the Set Track command can be used to set the internal
Present Track Register to the correct value.
If the WNR bit is a 0, a track register is to be read. In this
case, the Result Phase byte contains the value in the internal register specified, and the third byte in the Command
Phase is a dummy byte.
If the WNR bit is a 1, data is written to a track register. In this
case the third byte of the Command Phase is written to the
specified internal track register, and the Result Phase byte
contains this new value.
The DS1 and DS0 bits select the Present Track Register for
the particular drive. The internal register address depends
on MSB, DS1, and DS0 as shown in Table 4-15. This command does not generate an interrupt.

completion of the command. Also see Table 4-19 for further
explanation of the result bytes with respect to the MT and
EC bits.
The Motor Off and Motor On timers are artifacts of the NEC
mPD765. These timers determine both the delay from selecting a drive motor until a read or write operation is started, and the delay of deselecting the drive motor after the
command is completed. Since the FDC enables the drive
and motor select line directly through the DOR, these timers
only provide some delay from the initiation of a command
until it is actually started.

4.1.21 Verify Command
The Verify command reads logical sectors containing a Normal Data AM from the selected drive without transferring

Data command, except that no data is transferred during

The Verify command is designed for post-format or postwrite verification. Data is read from the disk, as the controller checks for valid Address Marks in the Address and Data
Fields. The CRC is computed and checked against the previously stored value on the disk. The EOT value should be
set to the final sector to be checked on each side. If EOT is
greater than the number of sectors per side, the command
will terminate with an error and no useful Address Mark or
CRC data will be given.
The TC pin cannot be used to terminate this command
since no data is transferred. The verify command can simulate a TC by setting the EC bit to a 1. In this case, the
command will terminate when SC (Sector Count) sectors
have been read. (If SC e 0 then 256 sectors will be verified.) If EC e 0, then the command will terminate when

4.1.22 Version Command
The Version command can be used to determine the floppy
controller being used. The Result Phase uniquely identifies
the floppy controller version. The FDC returns a value of
90h in order to be compatible with the 82077. The DP8473
and other NEC765 compatible controllers will return a value
of 80h (invalid command).

Command Phase:
4.1.23 Write Data Command
The Write Data command receives data from the host and
writes logical sectors containing a Normal Data AM to the
selected drive. The operation of this command is similar to
the Read Data command except that the data is transferred
from the mP to the controller instead of the other way
around.
The controller will simulate the Motor On time before starting the operation. If implied seeks are enabled, the seek and
sense interrupt functions are then performed. The controller
then starts the Data Separator and waits for the Data Separator to find the next sector Address Field. The controller
compares the Address ID (track, head, sector, bytes per
sector) with the desired ID specified in the Command
Phase. If there is no match, the controller waits to find the
next sector Address Field. This process continues until the
desired sector is found. If an error condition occurs, the IC
bits in ST0 are set to Abnormal Termination, and the controller enters the Result Phase. Possible errors are:
1. The mP aborted the command by writing to the FIFO. If
there is no disk in the drive, the controller will hang up.
The mP must then take the controller out of this hung
state by writing a byte to the FIFO. This will put the controller into the Result Phase.
2. Two index pulses were detected since the search began,
and no valid ID has been found. If the track address ID
differs, the WT bit or BT bit (if the track address is FFh)
will be set in ST2. If the head, sector, or bytes per sector
code did not match, the ND bit is set in ST1. If the Address Field AM was never found, the MA bit is set in ST1.
3. The Address Field was found with a CRC error. The CE
bit is set in ST1.
4. If the controller detects the Write Protect disk interface
input is Asserted. Bit 1 of ST1 is set.
If the correct Address Field is found, the controller waits for
all (conventional mode) or part (perpendicular mode) of
GAP2 to pass. The controller will then write the preamble
field, address marks, and data bytes to the Data Field. The
data bytes are transferred to the controller by the mP.
Having finished writing the sector, the controller will continue reading the next logical sector unless one or more of the
following termination conditions has occurred:
1. The DMA controller asserted TC. The IC bits in ST0 are
set to Normal Termination.
2. The last sector address (of side 1 if MT was set) was
equal to EOT. The EOT bit in ST1 is set. The IC bits in
ST0 are set to Abnormal Termination. This is the expected condition during Non-DMA transfers.
3. Underrun error. The OR bit in ST1 is set. The IC bits in
ST0 are set to Abnormal Termination. If the mP cannot
service a transfer request in time, the last correctly written byte will be written to the disk.
If MT was set in the Opcode command byte, and the last
sector of side 0 has been transferred, the controller will then
continue with side 1.

5.0 FDC Functional Description
The PC87303 is software compatible with the DP8473 and
82077 floppy disk controllers. Upon a power on reset, the
16-byte FIFO will be disabled. Also, the disk interface outputs will be configured as active push-pull outputs, which
are compatible with both CMOS inputs and open-collector
resistor terminated disk drive inputs. The FIFO can be enabled with the Configure command. The FIFO can be very
useful at the higher data rates, with systems that have a
large amount of DMA bus latency, or with multi-tasking systems such as the EISA or MCA bus structures.
The FDC will support all the DP8473 Mode command features as well as some additional features. Additional features include control over the enabling of the FIFO for reads
and writes, a Non-Burst mode for the FIFO, a bit that will
configure the disk interface outputs as open-drain outputs,
and programmability of the DENSEL output.
5.3 CONTROLLER PHASES
The FDC has three separate phases of a command, the
Command Phase, the Execution Phase, and the Result
Phase. Each of these controller phases determine how data
is transferred between the floppy controller and the host
microprocessor. In addition, when no command is in progress, the controller is in the Idle Phase or Drive Polling
Phase.
5.3.1 Command Phase
During the Command Phase, the mP writes a series of bytes
to the Data Register. The first command byte contains the
opcode for the command, and the controller knows how
many more bytes to expect based on this opcode byte. The
remaining command bytes contain the particular parameters
required for the command. The number of command bytes
varies for each particular command. All the command bytes
must be written in the order specified in the Command Description Table. The Execution Phase starts immediately after the last byte in the Command Phase is written. Prior to
performing the Command Phase, the Digital Output Register
should be set and the data rate should be set with the Data
Rate Select Register or Configuration Control Register.
The Main Status Register controls the flow of command
bytes, and must be polled by the software before writing
each Command Phase byte to the Data Register. Prior to
writing a command byte, the RQM bit (D7) must be set and
the DIO bit (D6) must be cleared in the MSR. After the first
command byte is written to the Data Register, the CMD
PROG bit (D4) is also set and remains set until the last
Result Phase byte is read. If there is no Result Phase, the
CMD PROG bit will be cleared after the last command byte
is written.
A new command may be initiated after reading all the result
bytes from the previous command. If the next command
requires selecting a different drive or changing the data rate,
the DOR and DSR or CCR should be updated. If the command is the last command, the software should deselect the
drive.
5.1 MICROPROCESSOR INTERFACE
The FDC interface to the microprocessor consists of the
A9 – A3, AEN, RD, and WR lines, which access the chip for
reads and writes; the data lines D7–0; the address lines
A2 – 0, which select the appropriate register (see Table 3-1);
the IRQ6 signal, and the DMA interface signals DRQ,
DACK, and TC. It is through this microprocessor interface
that the floppy controller receives commands, transfers
data, and returns status information.
5.2 MODES OF OPERATION
The FDC has three modes of operation: PC-AT mode, PS/2
mode, and Model 30 mode, which are determined by the
state of the IDENT pin and MFM pin. IDENT can be tied
directly to VDD or GND. The MFM pin must be tied high or
low with a 10 kX resistor (there is an internal 40 kX –50 kX
resistor on the MFM pin). The state of these pins is interrogated by the controller during a chip reset to determine the
mode of operation. See Section 3.0 Register Description for
more details on the register set used for each mode of operation. After chip reset, the state of IDENT can be changed
to change the polarity of DENSEL (see Section 1.0 Pin Description).
PC-AT ModeÐBits 7, 6 of ASC register are 11 (default):
The PC-AT register set is enabled. The DMA enable bit in
the Digital Output Register becomes valid (IRQ6 and DRQ
can be TRI-STATE). TC and DENSEL become active high
signals (defaults to a 5.25× floppy drive).
PS/2 ModeÐBits 7, 6 of ASC register are 01: This mode
supports the PS/2 Models 50/60/80 configuration and register set. The DMA enable bit in the Digital Output Register
becomes a don’t care (IRQ6 and DRQ signals are always
valid). TC and DENSEL become active low signals (default
to 3.5× floppy drive).
Model 30 ModeÐBits 7, 6 of ASC register are 00: This
mode supports the PS/2 Model 30 configuration and register set. The DMA enable bit in the Digital Output Register
becomes valid (IRQ6 and DRQ can be TRI-STATE). TC is
active high and DENSEL becomes active low (default to
3.5× floppy drive).
Note: As a general rule, the operation of the controller core is independent
of how the mP updates the DOR, DSR, and CCR. The software must
ensure that the manipulation of these registers is coordinated with the
controller operation.
5.3.2 Execution Phase
During the Execution Phase, the disk controller performs
the desired command. Commands that involve data transfers, (e.g., read, write, or format operation) require the mP to
write or read data to or from the Data Register at this time.
Some commands such as a Seek or Recalibrate control the
read/write head movement on the disk drive during the Execution Phase via the disk interface signals. Execution of other commands does not involve any action by the mP or disk
drive, and consists of an internal operation by the controller.

5.0 FDC Functional Description (Continued)
Burst Mode. DRQ remains active until enough bytes have
been read from the controller to empty the FIFO.
If there is data to be transferred between the mP and the
controller during the Execution, there are three methods
that can be used, DMA mode, interrupt transfer mode, and
software polling mode. The last two modes are called the
Non-DMA modes. The DMA mode is used if the system has
a DMA controller. This allows the mP to do other tasks while
the data transfer takes place during the Execution Phase. If
the Non-DMA mode is used, an interrupt is issued for each
byte transferred during the Execution Phase. Also, instead
of using the interrupt during Non-DMA mode, the Main
Status Register can be polled by software to indicate when
a byte transfer is required. All of these data transfer modes
work with the FIFO enabled or disabled.
Non-Burst Mode. DRQ is deasserted after each read transfer. If the FIFO is not completely empty, DRQ is reasserted
after a 350 ns delay. This allows other higher priority DMA
transfers to take place between floppy transfers. In addition,
this mode allows the controller to work correctly in systems
where the DMA controller is put into a read verify mode,
where only DACK signals are sent to the FDC, with no RD
pulses. This read verify mode of the DMA controller is used
in some PC software. The FIFO Non-Burst mode allows the
DACK input from the DMA controller to be strobed, which
correctly clocks data from the FIFO.
For both the Burst and Non-Burst modes, when the last byte
in the FIFO has been read, DRQ goes inactive. DRQ is then
reasserted when the FIFO trigger condition is satisfied. After
the last byte of a sector has been read from the disk, DRQ
is again generated even if the FIFO has not yet reached its
threshold trigger condition. This guarantees that all the current sector bytes are read from the FIFO before the next
sector byte transfer begins.
Write Data Transfers
Whenever the number of bytes in the FIFO is less than or
equal to THRESH, a DRQ is generated. This is the trigger
condition for the FIFO write data transfers from the mP to
the floppy controller.
Burst Mode. DRQ remains active until enough bytes have
been written to the controller to completely fill the FIFO.
Non-Burst Mode. DRQ is deasserted after each write
transfer. If the FIFO is not full, DRQ is reasserted after a 350
ns delay. This deassertion of DRQ allows other higher priority DMA transfers to take place between floppy transfers.
The FIFO has a byte counter which monitors the number of
bytes being transferred to the FIFO during write operations
for both Burst and Non-Burst modes. When the last byte of
a sector is transferred to the FIFO, DRQ is deasserted even
if the FIFO has not been completely filled. Thus, the FIFO is
cleared after each sector is written. Only after the floppy
controller has determined that another sector is to be written is DRQ asserted again. Also, since DRQ is deasserted
immediately after the last byte of a sector is written to the
FIFO, the system does not need to tolerate any DRQ deassertion delay and is free to do other work.
Read and Write Data Transfers
The DACK input signal from the DMA controller may be held
active during an entire burst or it may be strobed for each
byte transferred during a read or write operation. When in
the Burst mode, the floppy controller deasserts DRQ as
soon as it recognizes that the last byte of a burst was transferred. If DACK is strobed for each byte, the leading edge of
this strobe is used to deassert DRQ. If DACK is strobed, RD
or WR are not required. This is the case during the Read-
5.3.2.1 DMA ModeÐFIFO Disabled
The DMA mode is selected by writing a 0 to the DMA bit in
the Specify command and by setting the DMA enabled bit
(D3) in the DOR. With the FIFO disabled, a DMA request
(DRQ) is generated in the Execution Phase when each byte
is ready to be transferred. The DMA controller should respond to the DRQ with a DMA acknowledge (DACK) and a
read or write strobe. The DRQ is cleared by the leading
edge of the active low DACK input signal. After the last byte
is transferred, an interrupt is generated, indicating the beginning of the Result Phase. During DMA operations the chip
select input (CS) must be held high. The DACK signal acts
as the chip select for the FIFO in this case, and the state of
the address lines A2–A0 is a don’t care. The Terminal
Count (TC) signal can be asserted by the DMA controller to
terminate the data transfer at any time. Due to internal gating, TC is only recognized when DACK is low.
PC-AT Mode. When in the PC-AT interface mode with the
FIFO disabled, the controller is in single byte transfer mode.
That is, the system has one byte time to service a DMA
request (DRQ) from the controller. DRQ will be deasserted
between each byte.
PS/2 and Model 30 Modes. When in the PS/2 or Model 30
modes, DMA transfers with the FIFO disabled are performed differently. Instead of a single byte transfer mode,
the FIFO is actually enabled with THRESH e 0Fh. Thus,
DRQ is asserted when one byte has entered the FIFO during reads, and when one byte can be written to the FIFO
during writes. DRQ is deasserted by the leading edge of the
DACK input, and is reasserted when DACK goes inactive
high. This operation is very similar to Burst mode transfer
with the FIFO enabled except that DRQ is deasserted between each byte.
5.3.2.2 DMA ModeÐFIFO Enabled
Read Data Transfers
Whenever the number of bytes in the FIFO is greater than
or equal to (16 b THRESH), a DRQ is generated. This is the
trigger condition for the FIFO read data transfers from the
floppy controller to the mP.
58
5.0 FDC Functional Description (Continued)
Verify mode of the DMA controller. If DACK is held active
during the entire burst, the trailing edge of the RD or WR
strobe is used to deassert DRQ. DRQ is deasserted within
50 ns of the leading edge of DACK, RD, or WR. This quick
response should prevent the DMA controller from transferring extra bytes in most applications.
Overrun Errors
An overrun or underrun error terminates the execution of
the command if the system does not transfer data within the
allotted data transfer time (see Section 3.7), which puts the
controller into the Result Phase. During a read overrun, the
mP is required to read the remaining bytes of the sector
before the controller asserts IRQ6, signifying the end of execution. During a write operation, an underrun error terminates the Execution Phase after the controller has written
the remaining bytes of the sector with the last correctly written byte to the FIFO and generated the CRC bytes. Whether
there is an error or not, an interrupt is generated at the end
of the Execution Phase, and is cleared by reading the first
Result Phase byte.
DACK asserted alone without a RD or WR strobe is also
counted as a transfer. If RD or WR are not being strobed for
each byte, DACK must be strobed for each byte so that the
floppy controller can count the number of bytes correctly. A
new command, the Verify command, has been added to
allow easier verification of data written to the disk without
the need of actually transferring the data on the data bus.
data in or out of the Data Register (A2 – A0 must be valid).
CS asserted by itself is not significant. CS must be asserted
with RD or WR for a read or write transfer to be recognized.
The Burst mode may be used to hold the IRQ6 pin active
during a burst, or the Non-Burst mode may be used to toggle the IRQ6 pin for each byte of a burst. The Main Status
Register is always valid from the mP point of view. For example, during a read command, after the last byte of data
has been read from the disk and placed in the FIFO, the
MSR still indicates that the Execution Phase is active, and
that data needs to be read from the Data Register. Only
after the last byte of data has been read by the mP from the
FIFO does the Result Phase begin.
The same overrun and underrun error procedures from the
DMA mode apply to the Non-DMA mode. Also, whether
there is an error or not, an interrupt is generated at the end
of the Execution Phase, and is cleared by reading the first
Result Phase byte.
5.3.2.5 Software Polling
If the Non-DMA mode is selected and interrupts are not
suitable, the mP can poll the MSR during the Execution
Phase to determine when a byte is ready to be transferred.
The RQM bit (D7) in the MSR reflects the state of the IRQ6
signal. Otherwise, the data transfer is similar to the Interrupt
Mode described above. This is true for the FIFO enabled or
disabled.
5.3.3 Result Phase
During the Result Phase, the mP reads a series of bytes
from the data register. These bytes indicate the status of the
command. This status may indicate whether the command
executed properly, or contain some control information (see
the Command Description and Status Register Description).
These Result Phase bytes are read in the order specified for
that particular command. Some commands will not have a
result phase. Also, the number of result bytes varies with
each command. All of the result bytes must be read from
the Data Register before the next command can be issued.
Like the Command Phase, the Main Status Register controls the flow of result bytes, and must be polled by the
software before reading each Result Phase byte from the
Data Register. The RQM bit (D7) and DIO bit (D6) must both
be set before each result byte can be read. After the last
result byte is read, the COM PROG bit (D4) in the MSR is
cleared, and the controller is ready for the next command.
5.3.2.3 Interrupt ModeÐFIFO Disabled
If the Interrupt (Non-DMA) mode is selected, IRQ6 is asserted instead of DRQ when each byte is ready to be transferred. The Main Status Register should be read to verify
that the interrupt is for a data transfer. The RQM and NON
DMA bits (D7 and D5) in the MSR are set. The interrupt is
cleared when the byte is transferred to or from the Data
Register. CS and RD or CS and WR must be used to transfer the data in or out of the Data Register (A2–A0 must be
valid). CS asserted by itself is not significant. CS must be
asserted with RD or WR for a read or write transfer to be
recognized.
The mP should transfer the byte within the data transfer
service time (see Section 3.7). If the byte is not transferred
within the time allotted, an Overrun Error will be indicated in
the Result Phase when the command terminates at the end
of the current sector.
An interrupt is also be generated after the last byte is transferred. This indicates the beginning of the Result Phase.
The RQM and DIO bits (D7 and D6) in the MSR is set, and
the non-DMA bit (D5) is cleared. This interrupt is cleared by
reading the first Result Phase byte.
5.3.4 Idle Phase
After a hardware or software reset, or after the chip has
recovered from the power-down mode, the controller enters
the Idle Phase. Also, when there are no commands in progress the controller is in the Idle Phase. The controller waits
for a command byte to be written to the Data Register. The
RQM bit is set and the DIO bit cleared in the MSR. After
receiving the first command (opcode) byte, the controller
enters the Command Phase. When the command is completed the controller again enters the Idle Phase. The Data
Separator remains synchronized to the reference frequency
while the controller is idle. While in the Idle Phase, the controller will periodically enters the Drive Polling Phase (see
Section 5.3.5).
5.3.2.4 Interrupt ModeÐFIFO Enabled
The Interrupt (Non-DMA) mode with the FIFO enabled is
very similar to the Non-DMA mode with the FIFO disabled.
In this case, IRQ6 is asserted instead of DRQ under the
exact same FIFO threshold trigger conditions. The MSR
should be read to verify that the interrupt is for a data transfer. The RQM and NON DMA bits (D7 and D5) in the MSR is
set. CS and RD or CS and WR must be used to transfer the
59

difference between the input data and the divider’s output.
The PLL is ‘‘locked’’ when the frequency of the divider is
exactly the same as the average frequency of the data read
from the disk. A block diagram of the data separator is
shown in Figure 5-1 .
To ensure optimal performance, the data separator incorporates several additional circuits. The quarter period delay
line is used to determine the center of each bit cell, and to
disable the phase comparator when the raw data signal is
missing a clock or data pulse in the MFM or FM pattern. A
secondary PLL is used to automatically calibrate the quarter
period delay line. The secondary PLL also calibrates the
center frequency of the VCO.
To eliminate the logic associated with controlling multiple
data rates, the FDC supports each of the four data rates
(250, 300, 500 kbps, and 1 Mbps) with a separate, optimized
internal filter. The appropriate filter for each data rate is automatically switched into the data separator circuit when the
data rate is selected via the Data Rate Select or Configuration Control Register. These filters have been optimized
through lab experimentation, and are designed into the controller to reduce the external component cost associated
with the floppy controller.
The FDC has a dynamic window margin and lock range performance capable of handling a wide range of floppy disk
drives. Also, the data separator works well under a variety of
conditions, including the high motor speed fluctuations of
floppy compatible tape drives.
5.3.5 Drive Polling Phase
The National FDC supports the polling mode of the old generation 8-inch drives as a means of monitoring any change
in status for each disk drive present in the system. This
mode is supported for the sole purpose of providing backward compatibility with software that expects its presence.
While in the Idle Phase the controller enters a Drive Polling
Phase every 1 ms (based on the 500 kbps data rate). While
in the Drive Polling Phase, the controller interrogates the
Ready Changed status for each of the four logical drives.
The internal Ready line for each drive is toggled only after a
hardware or software reset, and an interrupt is generated for
drive 0. At this point, the software must issue four Sense
Interrupt commands to clear the Ready Changed State
status for each drive. This requirement can be eliminated if
drive polling is disabled via the POLL bit in the Configure
command. The Configure command must be issued within
500 ms (worst case ) of the hardware or software reset for
drive polling to be disabled.
Even if drive polling is disabled, drive stepping and delayed
power-down occurs in the Drive Polling Phase. The controller checks the status of each drive and if necessary it issues
a step pulse on the STEP output with the DIR signal at the
appropriate logic level. Also, the controller uses the Drive
Polling Phase to control the Automatic Low Power mode.
When the Motor Off time has expired, the controller waits
512 ms based on the 500 kbps and 1 Mbps data rate before
powering down if this function is enabled via the Mode command.
If a new command is issued when the FDC is in the middle
of a polling routine, the MSR will not indicate a ready status
for the next parameter byte until the poling sequence completes the loop. This can cause a delay between the first
and second bytes of up to 500 ms at 250 kbps.
Figure 5-2 shows the floppy disk controller dynamic window
margin performance at the four different data rates. Dynamic window margin is the primary indicator of the quality and
performance level of the data separator. This measurement
indicates how much motor speed variation (MSV) of the
drive spindle motor and bit jitter (or window margin) can be
tolerated by the data separator.
MSV is shown on the x-axis of the dynamic window margin
graph. MSV is translated directly to the actual data rate of
the data as it is read from the disk by the data separator.
That is, a faster than nominal motor will result in a higher
frequency in the actual data rate.
The dynamic window margin performance curves also indicate how much bit jitter (or window margin) can be tolerated
by the data separator. This parameter is shown on the
y-axis of the graphs. Bit jitter is caused by the magnetic
interaction of adjacent data pulses on the disk, which effectively shifts the bits away from their nominal positions in the
middle of the bit window. Window margin is commonly measured as a percentage. This percentage indicates how far a
data bit can be shifted early or late with respect to its nominal bit position, and still be read correctly by the data separator. If the data separator cannot correctly decode a shifted
bit, then the data is misread and a CRC results.
5.4 DATA SEPARATOR
The internal data separator consists of an analog PLL and
its associated circuitry. The PLL synchronizes the raw data
signal read from the disk drive. The synchronized signal is
used to separate the encoded clock and data pulses. The
data pulses are deserialized into bytes and then sent to the
mP by the controller.
The main PLL consists of five main components, a phase
comparator, a charge pump, a filter, a voltage controlled
oscillator (VCO), and a programmable divider. The phase
comparator detects the difference between the phase of the
divider’s output and the phase of the raw data being read
from the disk. This phase difference is converted to a current by the charge pump, which either charges or discharges one of three filters which is selected based on the data
rate. The resulting voltage on the filter changes the frequency of the VCO and the divider output to reduce the phase
60
5.0 FDC Functional Description (Continued)
Note: The dynamic window margin curves were generated using a FlexStar
FS-540 Floppy Disk Simulator and a proprietary dynamic window margin test program written by National Semiconductor.
The dynamic window margin performance curves contain
two pieces of information: 1) the maximum range of MSV
(also called ‘‘lock range’’) that the data separator can handle with no read errors, and 2) the maximum percentage of
window margin (or bit jitter) that the data separator can handle with no read errors. Thus, the area under the dynamic
window margin curves in Figure 5-2 is the range of MSV and
bit jitter that the FDC can handle with no read errors. The
FDC internal analog data separator has a much better performance than comparable digital data separator designs,
and does not require any external components.
The controller takes best advantage of the internal analog
data separator by implementing a sophisticated read algorithm. This ID search algorithm, shown in Figure 5-3 , enhances the PLL’s lock characteristics by forcing the PLL to
relock to the crystal reference frequency any time the data
separator attempts to lock to a non-preamble pattern. This
algorithm ensures that the PLL is not thrown way out of lock
by write splices or bad data fields.

5.6 PERPENDICULAR RECORDING MODE
The FDC is fully compatible with perpendicular recording
mode disk drives at all data rates. These perpendicular
mode drives are also called 4 Mbyte (unformatted) or
2.88 Mbyte (formatted) drives, which refers to their maximum storage capacity. Perpendicular recording will orient
the magnetic flux changes (which represent bits) vertically
on the disk surface, allowing for a higher recording density
than the conventional longitudinal recording methods. With
this increase in recording density comes an increase in the
data rate of up to 1 Mbps, thus doubling the storage capacity. In addition, the perpendicular 2.88M drive is read/write
compatible with 1.44M and 720k diskettes (500 kbps and
250 kbps respectively).
5.5 CRYSTAL OSCILLATOR
The FDC is clocked by a single 24 MHz signal. An on-chip
oscillator is provided to enable the attachment of a crystal
or a clock signal.
A parallel resonant crystal is preferred if at all possible. In
some cases, a series resonant crystal can be used, but care
must be taken to ensure that the crystal does not oscillate
at a sub-harmonic frequency. The oscillator is able to work
with high profile, low profile, and surface mount type crystal
enclosures. External bypass capacitors (5 pF to 10 pF)
should be connected from XTAL1 and XTAL2 to GND. If an
external oscillator circuit is used, it must have a duty cycle of
at least 40% – 60%, and minimum input levels of 2.4V and
0.4V. The controller should be configured so that the external oscillator clock is input into the X1/OSC pin, and XTAL2
is left unconnected.
62
5.0 FDC Functional Description (Continued)
pre-erase head is located at the beginning of the Data Field
preamble. This means that WGATE should be asserted
when the read/write head is at least 38 bytes (at 1 Mbps)
before the preamble. See Table 4-5 for a description of the
WGATE timing for perpendicular drives at the various data
rates.
Because of the 38 byte spacing between the read/write
head and the pre-erase head at 1 Mbps, the GAP2 length of
22 bytes used in the standard IBM disk format is not long
enough. There is a new format standard for 2.88M drives at
1 Mbps called the Perpendicular Format, which increases
the GAP2 length to 41 bytes (see Figure 4-1 ). The Perpendicular Mode command will put the floppy controller into
perpendicular recording mode, which allows it to read and
write perpendicular media. Once this command is invoked,
the read, write and format commands can be executed in
the normal manner. The perpendicular mode of the floppy
controller will work at all data rates, adjusting the format and
write data parameters accordingly. See Section 4.2.6 for
more details.
The 2.88M drive has unique format and write data timing
requirements due to its read/write head and pre-erase head
design (see Figure 5-4 ). Unlike conventional disk drives
which have only a read/write head, the 2.88M drive has
both a pre-erase head and read/write head. With conventional disk drives, the read/write head by itself is able to
rewrite the disk without problems. For 2.88M drives, a preerase head is needed to erase the magnetic flux on the disk
surface before the read/write can write to the disk surface.
The pre-erase head is activated during disk write operations
only, i.e., Format and Write Data commands.
In 2.88M drives, the pre-erase head leads the read/write
head by 200 mm, which translates to 38 bytes at 1 Mbps
(19 bytes at 500 kbps). For both conventional and perpendicular drives, WGATE is asserted with respect to the position of the read/write head. With conventional drives, this
means that WGATE is asserted when the read/write head is
located at the beginning of the Data Field preamble. With the
2.88M drives, since the preamble must be pre-erased before it is rewritten, WGATE should be asserted when the

5.0 FDC Functional Description (Continued)
There are two modes of low power in the floppy controller:
manual low power and automatic low power. Manual low
power is enabled by writing a 1 to bit 6 of the DSR. The chip
will go into low power immediately. This bit will be cleared to
0 after the chip is brought out of low power. Manual low
power can also be accessed via the Mode command. The
function of the manual low power mode is a logical OR function between the DSR low power bit and the Mode command manual low power bit setting.
Automatic low power mode will switch the controller into low
power 500 ms (at the 500 kbps MFM data rate) after it has
entered the idle state. Once the auto low power mode is set,
it does not have to be set again, and the controller will automatically go into low power mode after it has entered the
idle state. Automatic low power mode can only be set with
the Mode command.
There are two ways the FDC section can recover from the
power-down state. 1) The part will power up after a software
reset via the DOR or DSR. Since a software reset requires
reinitialization of the controller, this method can be undesirable. 2) The part will also power up after a read or write to
either the Data Register or Main Status Register. This is the
preferred method of power up since all internal register values are retained. It may take a few milliseconds for the oscillator to stabilize, and the mP will be prevented from issuing commands during this time through the normal Main
Status Register protocol. That is, the RQM bit in the MSR
will be a 0 until the oscillator has stabilized. When the controller has completely stabilized from power up, the RQM bit
in the MSR is set to 1 and the controller can continue where
it left off.
The Data Rate Select, Digital Output, and Configuration
Control Registers are unaffected by the power-down mode.
They will remain active. It is up to the user to ensure that the
Motor and Drive Select signals are turned off.
5.7 DATA RATE SELECTION
The data rate can be chosen two different ways with the
FDC. For PC compatible software, the Configuration Control
Register at address 3F7h is used to program the data rate
for the floppy controller. The lower bits D1 and D0 are used
in the CCR to set the data rate. The other bits should be set
to zero. See Table 3-7 for the data rate select encoding.
The data rate can also be set using the Data Rate Select
Register at address 4. Again, the lower two bits of the register are used to set the data rate. The encoding of these bits
is exactly the same as those in the CCR. The remainder of
the bits in the DSR are used for other functions. Consult the
Register Description (Section 3.1.6) for more details.
The data rate is determined by the last value that is written
to either the CCR or the DSR. In other words, either the
CCR or the DSR can override the data rate selection of the
other register. When the data rate is selected, the microengine and data separator clocks are scaled appropriately.
Also, the DRATE0 and DRATE1 output pins will reflect the
state of the data select bits that were last written to either
the CCR or the DSR.
5.8 WRITE PRECOMPENSATION
Write precompensation is a way of preconditioning the
WDATA output signal to adjust for the effects of bit shift on
the data as it is written to the disk surface. Bit shift is caused
by the magnetic interaction of data bits as they are written
to the disk surface, and has the effect of shifting these data
bits away from their nominal position in the serial MFM or
FM data pattern. Data that is subject to bit shift is much
harder to read by a data separator, and can cause soft read
errors. Write precompensation predicts where bit shift could
occur within a data pattern. It then shifts the individual data
bits early, late, or not at all such that when they are written
to the disk, the resultant shifted data bits will be back in their
nominal position.
The FDC supports software programmable write precompensation. Upon power up, the default write precomp values
will be used (see Table 3-6). The programmer can choose a
different value of write precomp with the DSR register if
desired (see Table 3-5). Also on power up, the default starting track number for write precomp is track zero. This starting track number for write precomp can be changed with the
Configure command.
Note: If the power to an external oscillator driving the PC87303 is to be
independently removed during the FDC low power mode, it must not
be done until 2 ms after the FDC low power command is issued.
5.10 RESET OPERATION
The floppy controller can be reset by hardware or software.
Hardware reset is enacted by pulsing the Master Reset input pin. A hardware reset will set all of the user addressable
registers and internal registers to their default values. The
Specify command values will be don’t cares, so they must
be reinitialized. The major default conditions are: FIFO disabled, FIFO threshold e 0, Implied Seeks disabled, and
Drive Polling enabled.
A software reset can be performed through the Digital Output Register or Data Rate Select Register. The DSR reset
bit is self-clearing, while the DOR reset bit is not self-clearing. If the LOCK bit in the Lock command was set to a 1
previous to the software reset, the FIFO, THRESH, and
PRETRK parameters in the Configure command will be retained. In addition, the FWR, FRD, and BST parameters in
the Mode command will be retained if LOCK is set to 1. This
function eliminates the need for total reinitialization of the
controller after a software reset.
5.9 FDC LOW POWER MODE LOGIC
The FDC section of the PC87303 supports two low power
modes described here in detail. Other low power modes of
the PC87303 are described in Section 2.5. Details concerning entering and exiting low power mode via setting Date
Rate Select Register bit 6 or by executing the FDC Mode
Command are covered below and in Section 3.1.6 and Section 4.1.6. The microcode is driven from the clock, so it will
be disabled while the clock is off. The FDC clock is always
disabled upon entering this mode, however, the oscillator is
only disabled when PTR1 e 1. Upon entering the powerdown state, the RQM (Request For Master) bit in the MSR
will be cleared.

Register Addresses (AEN e 0)
5.0 FDC Functional Description
(Continued)
After a hardware (assuming the FDC is enabled in the FER)
or software reset, the Main Status Register is immediately
available for read access by the mP. It will return a 00h value
until all the internal registers have been updated and the
data separator is stabilized. When the controller is ready to
receive a command byte, the MSR will return a value of 80h
(Request for Master bit is set). The MSR is guaranteed to
return the 80h value within 2.5 ms after a hardware or software reset. All other user addressable registers other than
the Main Status Register and Data Register (FIFO) can be
accessed at any time, even while the part is in reset.
6.0 Serial Ports
Each of these serial ports functions as a serial data input/
output interface in a microcomputer system. The system
software determines the functional configuration of the
UARTs via a 8-bit bidirectional data bus.
The UARTs are completely independent. They perform
serial-to-parallel conversion on data characters received
from a peripheral device or a MODEM, and parallel-to-serial
conversion on data characters received from the CPU. The
CPU can read the complete status of either UART at any
time during the functional operation. Status information reported includes the type and condition of the transfer operations being performed by the UART, as well as any error
conditions (parity, overrun, framing, or break interrupt).
The UARTs have programmable baud rate generators that
are capable of dividing the internal reference clock by divisors of 1 to (216 –1), and producing a 16x clock for driving
the transmitter logic. Provisions are also included to use this
16x clock to drive the receiver logic. The UARTs have complete MODEM-control capability and a prioritized interrupt
system. Interrupts can be programmed to the user’s requirements, minimizing the computing required to handle the
communications link.

6.2 LINE CONTROL REGISTER (LCR)
Read/Write
The system programmer uses the Line Control Register
(LCR) to specify the format of the asynchronous data communications exchange and set the Divisor Latch Access bit.
This is a read and write register. Table 6-2 shows the contents of the LCR. Details on each bit follow.

FIGURE 6-1. PC87303 Composite Serial Data
Bits 0,1 These two bits specify the number of data bits in
each transmitted or received serial character. The
encoding of bits 0 and 1 is as follows:
6.1 SERIAL PORT REGISTERS
Two identical register sets, one for each channel, are in the
PC87303. All register descriptions in this section apply to
the register sets in both channels. See Table 6-1.

Bit 5
This bit specifies the number of Stop bits transmitted with each serial character. If it is 0, one Stop
bit is generated in the transmitted data. If it is 1,
when a 5-bit data length is selected, one and a
half Stop bits are generated. If it is logic 1, when
either a 6-, 7-, or 8-bit word length is selected, two
Stop bits are generated. The receiver checks the
first Stop bit only, regardless of the number of
Stop bits selected.
This bit is the Parity Enable bit. When it is 1, a
Parity bit is generated (transmit data) or checked
(receive data) between the last data bit and Stop
bit of the serial data. (The Parity bit is used to
produce an even or odd number of 1s when the
data bits and the Parity bit are summed.)
This bit is the Even Parity Select bit. When parity is
enabled and bit 4 is 0, an odd number of logic 1s
is transmitted or checked in the data word bits and
Parity bit. When parity is enabled and bit 4 is 1, an
even number of logic 1s is transmitted or checked.
This bit is the Stick Parity bit. When parity is enabled it is used in conjunction with bit 4 to select
Mark or Space Parity. When LCR bits 3, 4 and 5
are 1 the Parity bit is transmitted and checked as a
0 (Space Parity). If bits 3 and 5 are 1 and bit 4 is a
0, then the Parity bit is transmitted and checked as
1 (Mark Parity). If bit 5 is 0 Stick Parity is disabled.
Bit 6
Bit 7
66
This bit is the Break Control bit. It causes a break
condition to be transmitted to the receiving UART.
When it is set to 1, the serial output (SOUT) is
forced to the Spacing state (0). The break is disabled by setting bit 6 to 0. The Break Control bit
acts only on SOUT and has no effect on the transmitter logic.
Note that this feature enables the CPU to alert a
terminal. If the following sequence is used, no erroneous characters will be transmitted because of
the break.
1. Wait for the transmitter to be idle, (TEMT e 1).
2. Set break for the appropriate amount of time. If
the transmitter will be used to time the break
duration, then check that TEMT e 1 before
clearing the Break Control bit.
3. Clear break when normal transmission has to
be restored.
During the break, the Transmitter can be used as
a character timer to accurately establish the break
duration by sending characters and monitoring
THRE and TEMT.
This bit is the Divisor Latch Access Bit (DLAB). It
must be set high (logic 1) to access the Divisor
Latches of the Baud rate Generator during a Read
or Write operation or to have the Baud Out
(BOUT) signal appear on the BOUT pin. It must be
set low (logic 0) to access any other register.

TABLE 6-4. PC87303 UART Divisors,
Baud Rates and Clock Frequencies
6.3 PROGRAMMABLE BAUD RATE GENERATOR
The PC87303 contains two independently programmable
Baud rate Generators. The 24 MHz crystal oscillator frequency input is divided by 13, resulting in a frequency of
1.8462 MHz. This is sent to each Baud rate Generator and
divided by the divisor of the associated UART. The output
frequency of the Baud rate Generator (BOUT1,2) is 16 c the
baud rate.
divisor Ý e (frequency input) (baud rate c 16)
24 MHz Input Divided to 1.8462 MHz
The output of each Baud rate Generator drives the transmitter and receiver sections of the associated serial channel.
Two 8-bit latches per channel store the divisor in a 16-bit
binary format. These Divisor Latches must be loaded during
initialization to ensure proper operation of the Baud rate
Generator. Upon loading either of the Divisor Latches, a
16-bit Baud Counter is loaded. Table 6-4 provides decimal
divisors to use with crystal frequencies of 24 MHz. The oscillator input to the chip should always be 24 MHz to ensure
that the Floppy Disk Controller timing is accurate and that
the UART divisors are compatible with existing software.
Using a divisor of zero is not recommended.

6.4 LINE STATUS REGISTER (LSR)
Bit 4
This 8-bit register provides status information to the CPU
concerning the data transfer. Table 6-2 shows the contents
of the Line Status Register. Details on each bit follow:
Bit 0 This bit is the receiver Data Ready (DR) indicator. It
is set to 1 whenever a complete incoming character
has been received and transferred into the Receiver
Buffer Register or the FIFO. It is reset to 0 by reading the data in the Receiver Buffer Register or the
FIFO.
Bit 1 This bit is the Overrun Error (OE) indicator. It indicates that data in the Receiver Buffer Register was
not read by the CPU before the next character was
transferred into the Receiver Buffer Register, thereby destroying the previous character. The OE indicator is set to 1 upon detection of an overrun condition,
and reset whenever the CPU reads the contents of
the Line Status Register. If the FIFO mode data continues to fill the FIFO beyond the trigger level, an
Overrun error will occur only after the FIFO is completely full and the next character has been received
in the shift register. OE is indicated to the CPU as
soon as it happens. The character in the shift register is overwritten, but is not transferred to the FIFO.
Bit 2 This bit is the Parity Error (PE) indicator. It indicates
that the received data character does not have the
correct parity, as selected by the even-parity select
bit. The PE bit is set to 1 upon detection of a parity
error and is reset to 0 whenever the CPU reads the
contents of the Line Status Register. In the FIFO
mode this error is associated with the particular
character in the FIFO that it applies to. This error is
revealed to the CPU when its associated character is
at the top of the FIFO.
Bit 3 This bit is the Framing Error (FE) indicator. It indicates that the received character did not have a valid Stop bit. It is set to 1 whenever the Stop bit following the last data bit or parity bit is a 0 (Spacing level).
The FE indicator is reset whenever the CPU reads
the contents of the Line Status Register. In the FIFO
mode this error is associated with the particular
character in the FIFO that it applies to. This error is
revealed to the CPU when its associated character is
at the top of the FIFO. The UART will try to resynchronize after a framing error by assuming that the
error was due to the next start bit. It samples this
‘‘start’’ bit twice and then takes in the bits following it
as the rest of the frame.
This bit is the Break Interrupt (BI) indicator. It is set
to 1 whenever the received data input is held in the
Spacing (0) state for longer than a full word transmission time (i.e., the total time of Start bit a data
bits a Parity a Stop bits). The BI indicator is reset
whenever the CPU reads the contents of the Line
Status Register. In the FIFO mode this error is associated with the particular character in the FIFO that it
applies to. This error is revealed to the CPU when its
associated character is at the top of the FIFO. When
break occurs only one character is loaded into the
FIFO. To Restart after a break is received, the SIN
pin must be 1 for at least (/2 bit time.
Note: Bits 1 through 4 are the error conditions that produce a
Receiver Line Status interrupt whenever any of the corresponding conditions are detected and the interrupt is enabled.
Bit 5
Bit 6
Bit 7
This bit is the Transmitter Holding Register Empty
(THRE) indicator. It indicates that the UART is ready
to accept a new character for transmission. In addition, it causes the UART to issue an interrupt to the
CPU when the Transmit Holding Register Empty Interrupt enable is set high. The THRE bit is set to 1
when a character is transferred from the Transmitter
Holding Register into the Transmitter Shift Register.
The bit is reset to 0 whenever the CPU loads the
Transmitter Holding Register. In the FIFO mode it is
set when the XMIT FIFO is empty; it is cleared when
at least 1 byte is written to the XMIT FIFO.
This bit is the Transmitter Empty (TEMT) indicator. It
is set to 1 whenever the Transmitter Holding Register (THR) and the Transmitter Shift Register (TSR)
are both empty. It is reset to 0 if either the THR or
TSR contains a data character. In the FIFO mode
this bit is set to 1 whenever the transmitter FIFO and
the shift register are both empty.
In the NS16450 Mode this is 0. In the FIFO Mode
this bit is set when there is at least one parity error,
framing error or break indication in the FIFO. It is
cleared when the CPU reads the LSR, if there are no
subsequent errors in the FIFO.
Note: The Line Status Register is intended for read operations
only. Writing to this register is not recommended as this
operation is only used for factory testing. In the FIFO mode
the software must load a data byte in the Rx FIFO via the
Loopback Mode in order to write to LSR2–LSR4. LSR0 and
LSR7 can’t be written to in FIFO Mode.
69
6.0 Serial Ports (Continued)
Bits 1, 2 These two bits of the IIR are used to identify the
highest priority interrupt pending as indicated in
Table 6-5.
6.5 FIFO CONTROL REGISTER (FCR)
This is a write-only register at the same location as the IIR
(the IIR is a read-only register). This register is used to enable the FIFOs, clear the FIFOs and to set the RCVR FIFO
trigger level.
Bit 0
Writing a 1 to FCR0 enables both the XMIT and
RCVR FIFOs. Resetting FCR0 clears all bytes in
both FIFOs. When changing from FIFO Mode to
NS16450 Mode and vice versa, data is automatically cleared from the FIFOs. This bit must already
be 1 when other FCR bits are written to or they will
not be programmed.
Bit 1
Writing 1 to FCR1 clears all bytes in the RCVR
FIFO and resets its counter logic to 0. The shift
register is not cleared. The 1 that is written to this
bit position is self-clearing.
Bit 2
Writing 1 to FCR2 clears all bytes in the XMIT
FIFO and resets its counter logic to 0. The shift
register is not cleared. The 1 that is written to this
bit position is self-clearing.
Bit 3
Writing to FCR3 does not change UART operations.
Bits 4, 5 FCR4 to FCR5 are reserved for future use.
Bits 6, 7 The combination of FCR6 and FCR7 are used to
designate the interrupt trigger level. See Figure
6-2 . When the number of bytes in the RCVR FIFO
equals the designated interrupt trigger level, a Received Data Available Interrupt is activated. This
interrupt must be enabled by setting the Interrupt
Enable Register (IER) bit 0.
FCR Bits
In the 16450 mode this bit is 0. In the FIFO mode it
is set along with bit 2 when a time-out interrupt is
pending. See Table 6-5.
Bits 4, 5 These bits of the IIR are always 0.
Bits 6, 7 These two bits are set when FCR0 e 1. (FIFO
Mode enabled.)
Bit 3
6.7 INTERRUPT ENABLE REGISTER (IER)
This register enables the five types of UART interrupts.
Each interrupt can individually activate the appropriate interrupt (IRQ3 or IRQ4) output signal. It is possible to totally
disable the interrupt system by resetting bits 0 through 3 of
the Interrupt Enable Register (IER). Similarly, setting bits of
this register to 1, enables the selected interrupt(s). Disabling
an interrupt prevents it from being indicated as active in the
IIR and from activating the interrupt output signal. All other
system functions operate in their normal manner, including
the setting of the Line Status and MODEM Status Registers.
Table 6-2 shows the contents of the IER. Details on each bit
follow. See MODEM Control Register bit 3 for more information on enabling the interrupt pin.
Bit 0
When set to 1 this bit enables the Received Data
Available Interrupt and Timeout Interrupt in the
FIFO Mode.
Bit 1
This bit enables the Transmitter Holding Register
Empty Interrupt when set to 1.
Bit 2
This bit enables the Receiver Line Status Interrupt
when set to logic 1.
Bit 3
This bit enables the MODEM Status Interrupt
when set to logic 1.
Bits 4 – 7 These four bits are always logic 0.

6.8 MODEM CONTROL REGISTER (MCR)
This register controls the interface with the MODEM or data
set (or a peripheral device emulating a MODEM). The contents of the MODEM Control Register (MCR) are indicated
in Table 6-2 and are described as follows:
Bit 0
This bit controls the Data Terminal Ready (DTR)
output. When it is set to 1, the DTR output is
forced to a logic 0. When it is reset to 0, the DTR
output is forced to 1. In Local Loopback Mode, this
bit controls bit 5 of the MODEM Status Register.
FIGURE 6-2. Receiver FIFO Trigger Level
6.6 INTERRUPT IDENTIFICATION REGISTER (IIR)
In order to provide minimum software overhead during data
character transfers, the UART prioritizes interrupts into four
levels and records these in the Interrupt Identification Register. The four levels of interrupt conditions in order of priority are Receiver Line Status; Received Data Ready; Transmitter Holding Register Empty; and MODEM Status.
When the CPU accesses the IIR, the UART freezes all interrupts and indicates the highest priority pending interrupt to
the CPU. While this CPU access is occurring, the UART
records new interrupts, but does not change its current indication until the current access is complete. Table 6-2 shows
the contents of the IIR. Details on each bit follow.
Bit 0
This bit can be used in an interrupt environment to
indicate whether an interrupt condition is pending.
When it is 0, an interrupt is pending and the IIR
contents may be used as a pointer to the appropriate interrupt service routine. When it is 1, no interrupt is pending. See Table 6-5.
Note: The DTR and RTS output of the UART may be applied to
an EIA inverting line driver (such as the DS1488) to obtain the proper polarity input at the MODEM or data set.
Bit 1
Bit 2
70
This bit controls the Request to Send (RTS) output. Its effect on the RTS output is identical to that
described above for bit 0. In Local Loopback
Mode, this bit controls bit 4 of the MODEM
Status Register.
This bit is the OUT1 bit. It does not have an output
pin associated with it. It can be written to and read
by the CPU. In Local Loopback Mode, this bit controls bit 6 of the MODEM Status Register.
6.0 Serial Ports (Continued)
Bit 3
Bit 4
spectively. The MODEM Control output pins are
forced to their high (inactive) states. In the Loopback Mode, data that is transmitted is immediately
received. This feature allows the processor to verify the transmit-and-received-data paths of the serial port.
In the Loopback Mode, the receiver and transmitter interrupts are fully operational. The MODEM
Status Interrupts are also operational, but the interrupts’ sources are the lower four bits of MCR
instead of the four MODEM control inputs. Writing
a 1 to any of these 4 MCR bits will cause an interrupt. In Loopback Mode the interrupts are still controlled by the Interrupt Enable Register. The IRQ3
and IRQ4 pins will be at TRI-STATE in the Loopback Mode.
Bits 5 – 7 These bits are permanently set to 0.
This bit enables the interrupt when set. No external pin is associated with this bit other than IRQ3,
4. In Local Loopback Mode, this bit controls bit 7
of the MODEM Status Register.
This bit provides a Local loopback feature for diagnostic testing of the UART. When it is set to 1, the
following changes take place: the transmitter Serial Output (SOUT) is set to the Marking (1) state;
the receiver Serial Input (SIN) is disconnected; the
output of the Transmitter Shift Register is ‘‘looped
back’’ (connected) to the Receiver Shift Register;
the four MODEM Control inputs (DSR, CTS, RI
and DCD) are disconnected; and the DTR, RTS,
OUT1, IRQ ENABLE bits in MCR are internally
connected to DSR, CTS, RI and DCD in MSR, re-

6.9 MODEM STATUS REGISTER (MSR)
This register provides the current state of the control lines
from the MODEM (or peripheral device) to the CPU. In addition to this current-state information, four bits of the
MODEM Status Register provide change information. These
bits are set to a logic 1 whenever a control input from the
MODEM changes state. They are reset to logic 0 whenever
the CPU reads the MODEM Status Register. Table 6-2
shows the contents of the MSR. Details on each bit follow.
Bit 0 This bit is the Delta Clear to Send (DCTS) indicator.
Bit 0 indicates that the CTS input to the chip has
changed state since the last time it was read by the
CPU.
Bit 1 This bit is the Delta Data Set Ready (DDSR) indicator. It indicates that the DSR input to the chip has
changed state since the last time it was read by the
CPU.
Bit 2 This bit is the Trailing Edge of Ring Indicator (TERI)
detector. It indicates that the RI input to the chip has
changed from a low to a high state.
Bit 3 This bit is the Delta Data Carrier Detect (DDCD) indicator. It indicates that the DCD input to the chip
has changed state.
The address decoding of the registers utilizing A0 and A1 is
shown in Table 7-1. Table 7-3 shows the Reset states of
Parallel port registers and pin signals. These registers are
shown in Section 7.2 to Section 7.4.

This bit is the complement of the Ring Indicator (RI)
input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to a 1, this bit is

This bit is the complement of the Data Carrier Detect (DCD) input. If bit 4 of the MCR is set to a 1, this
bit is equivalent to IRQ ENABLE in the MCR.

In Compatible mode a write operation causes the data to be
presented on pins PD0 – PD7. A read operation in this mode
causes the Data Register to present the last data written to
it by the CPU. See Table 7-3.
In the Extended Mode a write operation to the data register
causes the data to be latched. If the Data Port Direction bit
(CTR5) is 0, the latched data is presented to the pins; if it is
1 the data is only latched. When Data Port Direction bit
(CTR5) is 0, a read operation from this register allows the
CPU to read the last data it wrote to the port. In the Extended Mode with the Data Port Direction bit set to 1 (read), a
read from this register causes the port to present the data
on pins PD0 – PD7.
6.10 SCRATCHPAD REGISTER (SCR)
This 8-bit Read/Write Register does not control the UART
in any way. It is intended as a scratchpad register to be used
by the programmer to hold data temporarily.

7.0 Parallel Port
7.1 INTRODUCTION
This parallel interface is designed to provide all of the signals and registers needed to communicate through a standard parallel printer port as found in the IBM PC-XT, PC-AT,
PS/2 and Centronics systems. This parallel port supports
three standard modes of operation: SPP, EPP, ECP. The
Standard Parallel Port (SPP) is a software based protocol
with performance of up to 150 kbps.
The Enhanced Parallel Port (EPP) is a hardware protocol
which offers up to 2 Mbps.
The Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) is also a hardware
protocol with up to 2 Mbps transfer rate. In addition, the
ECP has FIFO’s for receive and transmit, and DMA support,
to reduce the CPU overhead. The ECP mode 0 is in fact
compatible with the SPP mode. The ECP specification defines the AC/DC parameters of the signals to allow fast
communication without termination problems.

To support a high transfer rate, the I/O buffers of the parallel port signals require improved impedance matching. IEEE
P1284 defines two types of I/O buffers, Level 1 (standard
I/O buffersÐopen-drain with weak pull-up), and Level 2
(new I/O buffersÐpush-pull with driver impedance and slew
rate according to new standards).

7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
Bit 0 When in EPP mode, this is the timeout status bit.
When this bit is 0, no timeout.
When this bit is 1, timeout occurred on EPP cycle
(minimum 10 ms).
It is cleared to 0 after STR is read, i.e., consecutive
reads (after the first read) always return 0. It is also
cleared to 0 when EPP is enabled (bit 0 of PCR is
changed from 0 to 1).
When not in EPP mode, this bit is 1.
Bit 1 Reserved, this bit is always 1.
Bit 2 In the compatible mode (PTR7 bit is 0), or in ECP and
EPP bit 4 of PCR e 0, this bit is always one.
In the Extended Mode (PTR7 bit is 1), or in ECP and
EPP with bit 4 of PCR e 1, this bit is the IRQ
STATUS bit.
In the Extended mode if CTR4 e 1, then this bit is
latched low when the ACK signal makes a transition
from low to high. Reading this bit sets it to a one.
Bit 3 This bit represents the current state of the printer
error signal (ERROR). The printer sets this bit low
when there is a printer error. This bit follows the state
of the ERR pin.
Bit 4 This bit represents the current state of the printer
select signal (SLCT). The printer sets this bit high
when it is selected. This bit follows the state of the
SLCT pin.
Bit 5 This bit represents the current state of the printer
paper end signal (PE). The printer sets this bit high
when it detects the end of the paper. This bit follows
the state of the PE pin.
Bit 6 This bit represents the current state of the printer
acknowledge signal (ACK). The printer pulses this
signal low after it has received a character and is
ready to receive another one. This bit follows the
state of the ACK pin.
Bit 7 This bit (BUSY) represents the current state of the
printer busy signal. The printer sets this bit low when
it is busy and cannot accept another character. This
bit is the inverse of the (BUSY/WAIT) pin.
IEEE P1284, Draft 2.00, September 10, 1993, Microsoft’s
ECP Protocol, and ISA Interface Standard, revision 1.14,
July 7, 1993 provide detailed descriptions of Level 2 I/O
buffers.
When an EPP or ECP mode is configured, with the exception of ECP mode 000, the following parallel port pins have
Level 2 I/O buffers: PD0–PD7, STB, AFD, INIT, SLIN, ACK,
ERR, SLCT, PE and BUSY.
(See DC Electrical Characterisitics, Section 11.1 for further
information.)
7.2 DATA REGISTER (DTR)
TL/C/12074 – 28
This is a bidirectional data port that transfers 8-bit date. The
direction is determined by the PTR7 and the CTR5 bits.
When PTR7 is high, the CTR5 bit will determine the data
direction in conjunction with the Read and Write strobes.
When PTR7 bit is low, the parallel port operates in the output mode only. See PTR7 bit and CTR5 bit for further information. The reset value of this register is 0. See Table 7-3.
7.3 STATUS REGISTER (STR)
TL/C/12074 – 29
This register provides status for the signals listed below. It is
a read only register. Writing to it is an invalid operation that
has no effect.
73
7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
Normally when the Control Register is read, the bit values
are provided by the internal output data latch. These bit
values can be superseded by the logic level of the STB,
AFD, INIT, and SLIN pins, if these pins are forced high or
low by an external voltage. In order to force these pins high
or low the corresponding bits should be set to their inactive
state (e.g., AFD e STB e SLIN e 0, INIT e 1). See Table
7-4.

Signal
TL/C/12074–30
This register provides all output signals to control the printer. Except for bit 5, it is a read and write register.
Bit 0
This bit (STB) directly controls the data strobe signal to the printer via the STB pin. This bit is the
inverse of the STB pin.
Bit 1
This bit (AFD) directly controls the automatic feed
XT signal to the printer via the AFD pin. Setting this
bit high causes the printer to automatically feed
after each line is printed. This bit is the inverse of
the AFD pin.
Bit 2
This bit (INIT) directly controls the signal to initialize the printer via the INIT pin. Setting this bit to
low initializes the printer. This bit follows the INIT
pin.

7.5 ENHANCED PARALLEL PORT OPERATION
EPP mode provides for greater throughput, and more complexity, than Compatible or Extended modes by supporting
faster transfer times and a mechanism that allows the host
to address peripheral device registers directly. Faster transfers are achieved by automatically generating the address
and data strobes. EPP is compatible with both Compatible
and Extended mode parallel-port devices. It consists of
eight (0 – 7) single-byte registers (See Table 7-5).
There are two EPP modes:
EPP rev 1.7 is supported when bit 0 of PCR is 1, and bit 1 of
PCR is 0.
EPP rev 1.9 (IEEE 1284) is supported when bit 0 of PCR is
1, and bit 1 of PCR is 1.
EPP is supported for a parallel port whose base address is
278h or 378h, but not for a parallel port whose base address is 3BCh (there are no EPP registers at 3BFh). There
are four EPP transfer operations: address write, address
read, data write and data read. An EPP transfer operation is
composed of a host read or write cycle (from or to an EPP
register) and an EPP read or write cycle (from a peripheral
device to an EPP register, or from an EPP register to a
peripheral device).
Note: This pin must be set to 1 before enabling the EPP or ECP
modes via bits 0 or 2 of the PCR register.
Bit 3
Reset Control
SLIN
This bit (SLIN) directly controls the select in signal
to the printer via the SLIN pin. Setting this bit high
selects the printer. It is the inverse of the SLIN pin.
This bit controls the parallel port generated by the
ACK signal. Its function changes slightly depending on the parallel port mode selected. In ECP
mode this bit should be set to 0. In the following
description, IRQx indicates either IRQ5 or IRQ7
(based upon PTR3).
Compatible mode:
when bit 4 e 0 IRQx is floated
when bit 4 e 1 IRQx follows ACK transitions
Extended mode:
when bit 4 e 0 IRQx is floated
when bit 4 e 1 IRQx becomes active on ACK trailing edge
EPP mode:
when bit 4 e 0 IRQx is floated
when bit 4 e 1 IRQx is pulsed when ACK is activated, or an EPP timeout occurs.
Bit 5
This bit determines the parallel port direction when
bit 7 of PTR is 1. The default condition results in
the parallel port being in the output mode. This is a
Read/Write bit in EPP mode. In SPP mode it is a
write only bit; a read from it will return 1. See Table
7-3 for further details.
Bits 6, 7 Reserved. These bits are always 1.

7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
The software must write zero to bits 0, 1 and 3 of the CTR
register, before accessing the EPP registers, since the pins
controlled by these bits are controlled by hardware during
EPP access. Once these bits are written with zero, the software may issue multiple EPP access cycles. The software
must set bit 7 of the PTR register to 1, if bit 5 of CTR is to
control direction.
To meet the EPP 1.9 specifications, the software should
change direction (bit 5 of CTR) only when bit 7 of STR is 1
(i.e., change direction at EPP Idle Phase, as defined in the
IEEE 1284 document).
When bit 7 of PTR is 0, EPP cycles to the external device
are generated by invoking read or write cycles to the EPP.
When bit 7 of PTR is 1:
1. Reading an EPP register during forward direction (bit 5 of
CTR is 0) is allowed only in EPP 1.7. It returns the register
latched value (not the PD0–7 pins’ value), and does not
generate an EPP read cycle.
2. Writing to an EPP register during backward direction (bit 5
of CTR is 1) updates the register data, and does not generate an EPP write cycle.
EPP 1.7 Address Read
The following procedure reads from the address register.
See also Figure 7-2 .
1. The host reads a byte from the EPP address register. RD
goes low to gate PD0 – 7 into D0 – 7.
2. The EPP pulls ASTRB low to signal the peripheral to
start sending data.
3. If WAIT is low during the host read cycle, then the EPP
pulls IOCHRDY low.
When WAIT goes high, the EPP stops pulling IOCHRDY
to low.
4. When IOCHRDY goes high it causes RD to go high if
WAIT is high during the host read cycle then the EPP
does not pull IOCHRDY to low.
5. When RD goes high, it causes the EPP to pull ASTRB
high.
Only when ASTRB is high can the EPP change PD0 – 7.
After ASTRB goes high, the EPP puts D0 – 7 in TRISTATE.
EPP 1.7 Address Write
The following procedure selects a peripheral device or register. See also Figure 7-1 .
1. The host writes a byte to the EPP address register. WR
goes low to latch D0–D7 into the address register. The
latch drives the address register onto PD0–7 and the
EPP pulls WRITE low.
2. The EPP pulls ASTRB low to indicate that data has been
sent.
3. If WAIT is low during the host write cycle, IOCHRDY
goes low.
When WAIT goes high, the EPP pulls IOCHRDY high.
4. When IOCHRDY goes high it causes WR to go high. If
WAIT is high during the host write cycle then the EPP
does not pull IOCHRDY to low.
5. When WR goes high it causes the EPP to pull WRITE
and ASTRB to high.
Only when WRITE and ASTRB are high can the EPP
change PD0 – 7.

EPP 1.7 Data Write and Data Read
This procedure writes to the selected peripheral device or
register. See also Figure 7-3 .
An EPP 1.7 data write operation is similar to the EPP 1.7
address write operation, and an EPP 1.7 data read operation is similar to the EPP 1.7 address read operation, except
that the data strobe (DSTRB signal), and a data register,
replace the address strobe (ASTRB signal) and the address
register respectively.
EPP Zero Wait State (ZWS) Address Write/Read Operation (both 1.7 and 1.9)
The following procedure performs a short write to the selected peripheral device or register.
ZWS should be configured as follows: bit 5 of FCR is 1 and
bit 6 of FCR is 0.
1. The host writes a byte to the EPP address register. WR
goes low to latch D0 – 7 into the data register. The latch
drives the data register onto PD0 – 7.
TL/C/12074–31
FIGURE 7-1. EPP 1.7 Address Write
76
7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
2. The EPP first pulls WRITE low, and then pulls ASTRB
low to indicate that data has been sent.
3. If WAIT is high during the host write cycle, ZWS goes low
and IOCHRDY goes high.
4. When the host pulls WR high, the EPP pulls ASTRB,
ZWS and WRITE to high.
Only when WRlTE and ASTRB are high can the EPP
change PD0–7.
5. If the peripheral is fast enough to pull WAIT low before
the host terminates the write cycle, the EPP pulls
IOCHRDY to low, but does not pull ZWS to low, thus
carrying out a normal (non-ZWS EPP 1.7) write operation.
EPP 1.9 Address Write
The following procedure selects a peripheral or register.
See also Figure 7-4 .
1. The host writes a byte to the EPP address register.
2. The EPP pulls IOCHRDY low, and waits for WAIT to go
low.
3. When WAIT goes low the EPP pulls WRITE to low drives
the latched byte onto PD0 – PD7.
If WAIT was already low, steps 2 and 3 occur concurrently.
4. The EPP pulls ASTRB low and waits for WAIT to go high.
5. When WAIT goes high, the EPP stops pulling IOCHRDY
low, pulls ASTRB high, and waits for WAIT to go low.
Note: A read operation is similar, except for the data direction, and the
activation of RD instead of WR.
6. Only if no EPP write is pending, when WAIT goes low, (or
when bit 7 of PTR is 1, and the direction is changed to
Backwards by setting bit 5 of CTR to 1), the EPP pulls
WRITE to high.
If an EPP write is pending WRITE remains low, and the
EPP may change PD0 – PD7.
EPP Zero Wait State (ZWS) Data Write/Read Operation
(both 1.7 and 1.9)
An EPP 1.7 and 1.9 Zero Wait State data write/read operation is similar to the EPP Zero Wait State address write/read
operation with the exception that the data strobe (DSTRB
signal), and a data register, replace the address strobe
(ASTRB signal) and the address register, respectively. See
Figure 7-3 .

If wait was already low, steps 2 and 3 occur concurrently.
3. When WAIT goes high, the EPP stops pulling IOCHRDY

4. When RD goes high, the EPP puts D0–7 in TRI-STATE.
EPP 1.9 Data Write and (Backward) Data Read
This procedure writes to the selected peripheral drive or
register. See Figure 7-5 .
EPP 1.9 data read and write operations are similar to EPP
1.9 address read and write operations, respectively, except
that the data strobe (DSTRB signal) and a data register replace the address strobe (ASTRB signal) and the address
register.

ward direction when bit 5 of DCR is 1). All DMA transfers are
to or from these registers. The ECP does not assert DMA
request for more than 32 consecutive DMA cycles. The ECP
stops requesting DMA when TC is detected during an ECP
DMA cycle.
Writing into a full FIFO, and reading from an empty FIFO,
are ignored. The written data is lost, and the read data is
undefined. The FIFO empty and full status bits are not affected by such access.
Some registers are not accessible in all modes of operation,
or may be accessed in one direction only. Accessing a non
accessible register has no effect: Data read is undefined,
data written is ignored, the FIFO does not update. The
PV87323VF Parallel Port registers (DRT, STR and CTR) are
not accessible when ECP is enabled.
To improve noise immunity in ECP cycles, the state machine does not examine the control handshake response
lines until the data has had time to switch.
IN ECP mode:
DATAR replaces DTR of SPP/EPP modes
DSR replaces SPR of SPP/EPP modes
DCR replaces CTR of SPP/EPP modes
A detailed description of the various modes follows in Sections 7.8 – 7.11.
7.6 EXTENDED CAPABILITIES PARALLEL PORT (ECP)
7.6.1 Introduction
The ECP support includes a 16-byte FIFO that can be configured for either direction, command/data FIFO tags (one
per byte), a FIFO threshold interrupt for both directions,
FIFO empty and full status bits, automatic generation of
strobes (by hardware) to fill or empty the FIFO, transfer of
commands and data, and a Run Length Encoding (RLE)
expanding (decompression) as explained below.
The Extended Capabilities Port (ECP) is enabled when bit 2
of PCR is 1. Once enabled, its mode is controlled via the
mode field of ECRÐbits 5,6,7 of ECR register.
The ECP has ten registers. See Table 7-7.
The AFIFO, CFIFO, DFIFO and TFIFO registers access the
same ECP FIFO. The FlFO is accessed at Base a 000h, or
Base a 400h, depending on the mode field of ECR and the
register.
FIFO can be accessed by host DMA cycles, as well as host
PIO cycles.
When DMA is configured and enabled (bit 3 of ECR is 1 and
bit 2 of ECR is 0) the ECP automatically (by hardware) issues DMA requests to fill the FIFO (in the forward direction
when bit 5 of DCR is 0) or to empty the FIFO (in the back-

Parallel Port Data Register
7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
Reading this register has no effect and the data read is
undefined. Writes to this register during backward direction
(bit 5 of DCR is 1) have no effect and the data is ignored.
7.6.2 Software Operation
Software operation is detailed in the document Extended
Capabilities Port Protocol and ISA Interface Standard. To
highlight the ECP usage some software operations are detailed below:
1. The software should enable ECP (bit 2 of PCR is 1) after
bits 0 – 3 of the Parallel Port Control Register (CTR) are
0100.
2. When ECP is enabled, and the software wishes to switch
modes, it should switch only through modes 000 or 001.
3. When ECP is enabled, the software should change direction only in mode 001.
4. The software should switch from mode 010, or 011 to
mode 000, or 001, only when the FIFO is empty.
5. The software should switch to mode 011 when bits 0 and
1 of DCR are 0.
6. The software should switch to mode 010 when bit 0 of
DCR is 0.
7. The software should disable ECP (bit 2 of PCR is 0) only
when in mode 000 or 001.
Software may switch from mode 011 backward direction to
modes 000 or 001 when there is an on-going ECP read
cycle. In this case the read cycle is aborted by deasserting
AFD. The FIFO is reset (empty) and a potential byte expansion (RLE) is automatically terminated since the new mode
is 000 or 001.
The ZWS signal is asserted by the ECP when ECP is enabled, and an ECP register is accessed by host PIO instructions, thus using a host zero wait cycle.
The ECP uses the X1/OSC clock. This clock can be frozen
(a power-down mode). When this power-down mode occurs, the DMA is disabled, all interrupts (except ACK) are
masked, and the FIFO registers are not accessible (access
is ignored). The other ECP registers are always accessible
when the ECP is enabled. During this period the FIFO status
and contents are not lost, although the host reads bit 2 of
ECR as 0, bit 1 of ECR as 1 and bit 0 of ECR as 1, regardless of the actual values of these bits. When the clock starts
toggling again these bits resume their original functions (values).
When the clock is frozen, an on-going ECP cycle may be
corrupted but next ECP cycle will not start. This is true even
if in forward direction the FIFO is not empty, and in backward direction the FIFO is not full. If the ECP clock starts or
stops toggling during a host cycle that accesses the FIFO,
the cycle may yield wrong data.
DSR: Read only. Same as the current STR register, except
for bit 2, which is reserved.
Writes to this register have no effect and the data is ignored.
Note: The FDC has a register of the same name (DSR).
DCR: Same as the SPP CTR register, with the following
exceptions:
1. When bit 5 of the DCR is 0 the ECP is in forward
direction, and when bit 5 is high (1) the ECP is in
backward direction.
2. The ECP drives the PD0-PD7 pins in the forward
direction but does not drive them in the backward
direction.
3. The direction bit, bit 5, is readable and writable.
4. When the control bit is read, the bit values are
provided by the internal data latch. These bit values are not superseded by the logic level of the
STB, AFD, INIT and SLIN pins.
5. Bit 4 of the DCR enables the ACK deassertion
interrupt event (1 e enable, 0 e mask). If a level
interrupt is configured (bit 4 of PCR is 1) clearing
this bit clears the ACK pending interrupt request.
This bit does not float the IRQ pin.
In mode 011, when bit 1 of DRC is 0, AFD is controlled by
ECP hardware. When bit 1 of DCR is 1, AFD is driven low.
In mode 011 or 010, when bit 0 of DCR is 0, STB is controlled by the ECP hardware. When bit 0 of DCR is 1, STB is
driven low.
CFIFO: Parallel Port FIFO Register. Write only.
A byte written, or DMAed, to this register is pushed into the
FIFO and tagged as data.
Reading this register has no effect and the data read is
undefined.
DFIFO: ECP Data FIFO Register.
In the forward direction (bit 5 of DCR is 0) a byte written, or
DMAed, to this register is pushed into the FIFO and tagged
as data.
Reading this register has no effect and the data read is
undefined.
In the backward direction (bit 5 of DCR is 1) the ECP automatically issues ECP read cycles to fill the FIFO. Reading
this register pops a byte from the FIFO.
Writing this register has no effect and the data written is
ignored.
TFIFO: Test FlFO Register.
A byte written into this register is pushed into the FIFO. A
byte read from this register is popped from the FIFO. The
ECP does not issue a ECP cycle to transfer the data to or
from the peripheral device.
The TFIFO is readable and writable in both directions. In the
forward direction (bit 5 of DCR is 0) PD0 – PD7 are driven,
but the data is undefined.
Note 1: The ECP outputs are inactive when the ECP is disabled.
Note 2: Only the FIFO/DMA/RLE are not functional when the clock is frozen. All other registers are accessible and functional. The FIFO/
DMA/RLE are affected by ECR modifications. i.e., they are reset
even when exits from modes 010/011 are carried out while the
clock is frozen.
7.7 REGISTER DEFINITIONS
DATAR: Same as DTR register, except that read always
returns the values of the PD0–PD7 pins (not the register
latched data).
AFIFO: ECP Address FIFO Register. Write Only. In the forward direction (bit 5 of DCR is 0) a byte written into this
register is pushed into the FIFO and tagged as command.
80
7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
The FIFO does not stall when overwritten or underrun (access is ignored). Bytes are always read from the top of the
FIFO, regardless of the direction bit (bit 5 of DCR). For example if 44h, 33h, 22h, 11h is written into the FIFO, reading
the FIFO returns 44h, 33h, 22h, 11h (in the same order it
was written).
CNFGA: Configuration Register A. Read only.
Reading this register always returns 0001x100. Writing this
register has no effect and the data is ignored.
Bit 3 of CNFGA reflects the value of bit 5 of the ASC register.
CNFGB: Configuration Register B. Read only.
Reading this register returns the configured parallel port interrupt line, and its state, as follows.
Bit 7
This bit is always 0.
Bit 6
Holds the (non-inverted) value on the configured IRQ pin.
Bits 5, 4
These bits are 1 when IRQ5 is configured, and
0 when IRQ7 is configured.
Bit 3
This bit is always 1.
Bits 2 – 0 These bits are always 0.
Writing this register has no effect and the data
is ignored.
ECR: Extended Control Register. This register controls the
ECP and parallel port functions. Upon reset this register is
initialized to 00010101.
IOCHRDY is driven low on ECR read when the ECR status
bits are not holding updated data.
Bits 7, 6, 5 (Mode) Bit 7 is the MSB of the three bits value.
000: Standard mode. Write cycles are performed under software control. STB, AFD,
INIT, and SLIN are open-drain outputs.
Bit 5 of DCR is ignored (assumes forward
direction) and PD0–PD7 are driven. The
FIFO is reset (empty).
001: PS/2 mode. Read and write cycles are
performed under software control. The
FIFO is reset (empty). STB, AFD, INIT, and
SLIN are open-drain outputs.
010: Parallel Port FIF0 mode. Write cycles are
performed under hardware control (STB is
controlled by hardware). Bit 5 of DCR is
ignored (assumes forward direction) and
PD0–PD7 are driven. STB, AFD, INIT, and
SLIN are open-drain output buffers when
bit 1 of PCR is 0. When bit 1 of PCR is 1,
the output buffers are push-pull.
011: ECP FIFO mode. The FIFO direction is
controlled by bit 5 of DCR.
Read and write cycles to the device are
performed under hardware control (STB
and AFD are controlled by hardware). STB,
AFD, INIT, and SLIN are push-pull output
buffers.
100: Reserved.
101: Reserved.
Bit 4
Bit 3
110: FIFO test mode. The FIFO is accessible
via the TFIFO register.
The ECP does not issue ECP cycles to fill/
empty the FIFO.
111: Configuration mode. The CNFGA and
CNFGB registers are accessible in this
mode.
ECP Interrupt Mask bit. When this bit is 0 an
interrupt is generated on ERR assertion (the
high-to-low edge of ERR). An interrupt is also
generated when ERR is asserted while this bit is
changed from 1 to 0; this prevents the loss of
an interrupt between ECR read and ECR write.
When this bit is 1, no interrupt is generated.
ECP DMA Enable bit. When this bit is 0, DMA is
disabled and the PDRQ pin is in TRI-STATE.
When this bit is 1, DMA is enabled and DMA
starts when bit 2 of ECR is 0.
Note: PDACK is assumed inactive when this bit is 0.
Bit 2
Bit 1
Bit 0
81
ECP Service bit. When this bit is 0, and one of
the following three interrupt events occur, an interrupt is generated and this bit is set to 1 by
hardware.
1. Bit 3 of ECR is 1, and terminal count is
reached during DMA.
2. Bit 3 of ECR is 0 and bit 5 of DCR is 0, and
there are eight or more bytes free in the
FIFO.
3. Bit 3 of ECR is 0 and bit 5 of DCR is 1, and
there are eight or more bytes to be read from
the FIFO.
When this bit is 1, DMA and the above three
interrupts are disabled.
Writing 1 to this bit does not cause an interrupt.
When the ECP clock is frozen this bit is read as
0, regardless of its actual value (even though
the bit may be modified by software when the
ECP clock is frozen).
FIFO Full bit. Read only.
This bit is 0 when the FIFO has at least one free
byte.
This bit is 1 when the FIFO is full.
This bit continuously reflects the FIFO state,
and therefore can only be read. Data written to
this bit is ignored.
When the ECP clock is frozen this bit is read as
1, regardless of the actual FIFO state.
FIFO Empty bit. Read only.
This bit is 0 when the FiFO has at least one byte
of data.
This bit is 1 when the FIFO is empty.
This bit continuously reflects the FIFO state,
and therefore can only be read. Data written to
this bit is ignored.
When the ECP clock is frozen this bit is read as
1, regardless of the actual FIFO state.
7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
When BUSY is high the ECP deasserts STB and changes
AFD and PD0 – 7 only after BUSY is low.
7.8 SOFTWARE CONTROLLED DATA TRANSFER
(Modes 000 and 001)
Software controlled data transfer is supported in modes 000
and 001. The software generates peripheral-device cycles
by modifying the DATAR and DCR registers and reading the
DSR, DCR and DATAR registers. The negotiation phase
and nibble mode transfer, as defined in the IEEE 1284 standard, are performed in these modes.
In these modes the FIFO is reset (empty) and is not functional, the DMA and RLE are idle.
Mode 000 is for the forward direction only; the direction bit
is forced to 0 and PD0–7 are driven. Mode 001 is for both
the forward and backward directions. The direction bit controls whether PD0 –7 are driven.
TL/C/12074 – 36
FIGURE 7-6. ECP Forward Write Cycle
7.9.3 Backward Direction (bit 5 of DCR is 1)
When the ECP is in the backward direction, and the FIFO is
not full (bit 1 of ECR is 0), the ECP issues a read cycle from
the peripheral device and monitors the BUSY signal. If
BUSY is high the byte is a data byte and it is pushed into the
FIFO. If BUSY is low the byte is a command byte. The ECP
checks bit 7 of the command byte, if it is high the byte is
ignored, if it is low the byte is tagged as an RLC byte (not
pushed into the FIFO but used as a Run Length Count to
expand the next byte read). Following an RLC read the ECP
issues a read cycle from the peripheral device to read the
data byte to be expanded. This byte is considered a data
byte, regardless of its BUSY state (even if it is low). This
byte is pushed into the FIFO (RLC a 1) times (i.e.,
RLC e 0: push the byte once, RLC e 127: push the byte
128 times).
When the ECP is in the backward direction, and the FIFO is
not empty (bit 0 of ECR is 0), the FIFO can be emptied by
software reads from the FIFO register (only DFIFO in mode
011, no AFIFO and CFIFO read).
When DMA is enabled (bit 3 of ECR is 1 and bit 2 of ECR is
0) the ECP automatically issues DMA requests to empty the
FIFO (only in mode 011).
7.9 AUTOMATIC DATA TRANSFER (Modes 010 and 011)
Automatic data transfer (ECP cycles generated by hardware) is supported only in modes 010 and 011. Automatic
DMA access to fill or empty the FIFO is supported in modes
010, 011 and 110. Mode 010 is for the forward direction
only. The direction bit is forced to 0 and PD0–7 are driven.
Mode 011 is for both the forward and backward directions.
The direction bit controls whether PD0–7 are driven.
Automatic Run Length Expanding (RLE) is supported in the
backward direction.
Note 1: FIFO-full condition is checked before every expanded byte push.
Note 2: A pending DMA request is removed, and a pending RLE expansion
is aborted, when you switch from modes 010 or 011 to other
modes.
Note 3: The two FIFO ports are neither synchronized nor linked together,
except via the empty and full FIF0 status bits. The FIFO shall not
delay the push and pop operations, even when they are performed
concurrently. Care must be taken not to corrupt PD0–PD7 or D0–7
while the other FIFO port is accessed.
Note 4: In the forward direction, the empty bit is updated when the ECP
cycle is completed, not right after the last byte is popped out of the
FIFO (valid cleared on cycle end).
Note 5: ZWS is not asserted for DMA cycles.
7.9.4 ECP Backward Read Cycle
An ECP read cycle starts when the ECP drives AFD low.
The peripheral device drives BUSY high for a normal data
read cycle, or drives BUSY low for a command read cycle,
and drives the byte to be read onto PD0 – 7.
When ACK is asserted the ECP drives AFD high. When AFD
is high the peripheral device deasserts ACK. The ECP reads
the PD0 – 7 byte, then drives AFD low. When AFD is low the
peripheral device may change BUSY and PD0 – 7 states in
preparation for the next cycle.
Note 6: The one-bit command/data tag is used only in forward direction.
7.9.1 Forward Direction (bit 5 of DCR e 0)
When the ECP is in forward direction and the FIFO is not full
(bit 1 of ECR is 0) the FIFO can be filled by software writes
to the FlFO registers (AFIFO and DFIFO in mode 011, and
CFIFO in mode 010).
When DMA is enabled (bit 3 of ECR is 1 and bit 2 of ECR is
0) the ECP automatically issues DMA requests to fill the
FIFO with normal data byte.
When the ECP is in forward direction and the FIFO is not
empty (bit 0 of ECR is 0) the ECP pops a byte from the FIFO
and issues write cycle to the peripheral device. The ECP
drives AFD according to the operation mode (ECR bits 5–7)
and according to the tag of the popped byte as follows: In
Parallel Port FIFO mode (mode 010) AFD is controlled by bit
1 of DCR. In ECP mode (mode 011) AFD is controlled by the
popped tag. AFD is driven high for normal data byte and
driven low for command byte.
TL/C/12074 – 37
FIGURE 7-7. ECP Backward Read Cycle
7.9.2 ECP Forward Write Cycle
An ECP write cycle starts when the ECP drives the popped
tag onto AFD and the popped byte onto PD0–7. When
BUSY is low the ECP asserts STB. In 010 mode the ECP
deasserts STB to terminate the write cycle. In 011 mode the
ECP waits for BUSY to be high before it deasserts STB.
82
7.0 Parallel Port (Continued)
8.2 IDE SIGNALS
7.10 FIFO TEST ACCESS (Mode 110)
Mode 110 is for testing the FIFO in PIO and DMA cycles.
Both read and write operations (pop and push) are supported, regardless of the direction bit.
In the forward direction PD0–PD7 are driven, but the data is
undefined. This mode can be used to measure the hostECP cycle throughput, usually with DMA cycles. This mode
can also be used to check the FIFO depth and its interrupt
threshold, usually with PIO cycles.
Using ’LS244 devices in the IDE interface provides buffering
of the control and address lines. Four control signals, IDEHI,
IDELO, HCS0, HCS1, one status signal, IOCS16, and one
data signal, IDED7, are required by the IDE interface. The
PC87303 provides all of these signals. They are summarized below.
IDEHI enables an ’LS245 octal bus transceiver for the upper
data lines (D15 – 8) during 16-bit read and write operations
at addresses 1F0 – 1F7. IDEHI will activate the ’LS245 only if
the IOCS16 output from the hard drive is active. IDELO enables another ’LS245 octal bus transceiver for the lower
data lines (D7 – 0) during all (1F0 – 1F7, 3F6 and 3F7) reads
and writes.
The IDED7 signal insures that the D7 data bus signal line is
disabled for address 3F7 (this bit is used for the Disk
Changed register on the floppy disk controller at that address).
The two ’LS245 chips are used to enable or TRI-STATE the
data bus signals. In the PC-AT mode the PC87303 provides
the two hard disk chip selects (HCS0, HCS1) for the IDE
interface.
The HCS0 output is active low when the 1F0 – 1F7h I/O
address space is chosen and corresponds to the 1FX signal
on the IDE header.
The HCS1 output is active low when the 3F6 or 3F7 I/O
addresses are chosen and corresponds to 3FX on the IDE
header. These are the two address blocks used in the
PC-AT hard disk controller.
Table 8-1 summarizes the addresses used by the PC-AT
hard disk controller.
7.11 CONFIGURATION REGISTERS ACCESS (Mode 111)
The two configuration registers, CNFGA and CNFGB, are
accessible only in this mode.
7.12 INTERRUPT GENERATION
An interrupt is generated when any of the following events
occurs:
1. When bit 2 of ECR is 0, bit 3 of ECR is 1 and TC is
asserted during ECP DMA cycle.
2. When bit 2 of ECR is 0, bit 3 of ECR is 0, bit 5 of DCR is 0
and there are eight or more bytes free in the FIFO. It
includes the case when bit 2 of ECR is cleared to 0 and
there are already eight or more bytes free in the FIFO
(modes 010, 011 and 110 only).
3. When bit 2 of ECR is 0, bit 3 of ECR is 0, bit 5 of DCR is 1
and there are eight or more bytes to be read from the
FIFO. It includes the case when bit 2 of ECR is cleared to
0 and there are already eight or more bytes to be read
from the FIFO (modes 011 and 110 only).
4. When bit 4 of ECR is 0 and ERR is asserted (high to low
edge) or ERR is asserted when bit 4 of ECR is modified
from 1 to 0.
5. When bit 4 of DCR is 1 and ACK is deasserted (low-tohigh edge).
The interrupt is generated according to bits 4, 5 and 6 of
PCR.
TABLE 8-1. IDE Registers and Their ISA Addresses
Address
Note: Interrupt events Ý2, Ý3 and Ý4 are level events, thus they are
shaped as interrupt pulses. These interrupts are masked (inactive)
when the ECP clock is frozen. Interrupt event Ý1 is a pulse event.
The last interrupt event behaves as in the normal SPP mode: the IRQ
signal follows the ACK signal transition (when bit 5 of PCR is 0 and bit
6 of PCR is 0). Note that interrupt event Ý4 may be lost when the
ECP clock is frozen.
8.0 Integrated Device Electronics
Interface (IDE)
8.1 INTRODUCTION
Another key interface for PC design is facilitated through the
use of the PC87303 IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) Hard
Disk interface. Only three buffer chips are required to construct the IDE Hard Disk Interface circuit.
The IDE interface is essentially the PC-AT bus ported to the
hard drive. The hard disk controller resides on the hard drive
itself. So the IDE interface circuit must provide the PC-AT
bus signals, including data bits D15–0, address lines A3 – 0,
as well as the common control signals.

b) IDED7 is functional (i.e., read: IDED7 to D7, write D7 to
IDED7) when IDEACK is asserted and either RD or WR is
asserted.
c) HCS1,0 are not asserted on DMA cycles.
The IDE Interface Circuit has some additional IDE DMA support. When bit 1 of FCR is 1, the PC87303 IDE responds to
a DMA acknowledgement on the IDEACK input pin as follows:
a) IDEL0 is asserted when IDEACK is asserted and either
RD or WR is asserted.
The equations shown in Figure 8-1 define the signals of the

9.0 Keyboard Controller and Real-Time Clock
The I/O ports provide up to 18 programmable lines for dedicated control functions. Four lines may be used to expand
the number of I/O ports.
The KBC is software compatible with the 8042AH industry
standard keyboard controller as well as National’s
PC87911. The PC87303 can execute code previously written for an 8042 without further development.
The following sections will describe in detail the operation of
the functional blocks shown in Figure 9-1 .
The RTC supports a 100-year calendar as well as a time-ofday clock with alarm features and battery backup.
The keyboard controller (KBC) is a general purpose 8-bit
microcontroller. It consists of 256 Bytes of data memory and
2 kBytes of Read-Only Memory (ROM), two 8-bit I/O ports, a
three register system interface, an 8-bit timer/counter, and
facilities for both binary and Binary Coded Decimal (BCD)
arithmetic. Figure 9-1 shows the relationships of these functional blocks and Figure 9-2 displays the interface between
the PC87303 and a host system.
The ROM may be custom programmed during manufacture
according to customer requirements. These versions of devices are available by special order. For applications which
require program development capabilities, the RAM-based
PC87323 SuperI/O Sidewinder is recommended.

9.1.1 Host System Interface

Common Signals
The keyboard controller is interfaced to the host system
through a common system interface. The interface consists
of the address bus A0–A9, Address Enable (AEN) signal,
data bus D0 – D7, and control signals I/O Read (IOR), I/O
Write (IOW), and Chip Select (CS) (see Figure 9-2 ).
Address bus A0 –A9 connects to the system address
SA0 – SA9 of the system. The PC87303 uses the system
address and the AEN signal to decode the access to the
configuration register.
Data bus D0 – D7 connects to the peripheral bus XD0–XD7
of the system.
The IOR and IOW inputs connect to the IOR and IOW lines
of the system. All read and write operations to the PC87303
are I/O operations.
The CS pin is the keyboard controller chip-select. It must be
connected to the keyboard controller chip/select signal of
the system when bit 6 of KRR is 0. The PC87303 decodes
the keyboard controller chip-select from A0–A9 (60h or
64h) when bit 6 of KRR is 1.

System Interface Registers
The keyboard controller consists of three 8-bit registers:
Data Byte Buffer Output (DBBOUT), Data Byte Buffer Input
(DBBIN), and STATUS. See Figure 9-2 .
The DBBOUT register is used to transfer data from the keyboard controller to the host system. It is written by the keyboard controller using the OUT DBB,A instruction. A data
read operation by the host system reads its content.
The DBBIN register is used to transfer data from the host
system to the keyboard controller. It is written by the host
system. It is read by the keyboard controller using an IN
A, DBB instruction.
The STATUS register holds status information related to the
system interface. Figure 9-3 shows the bit definition. It is
read-only by the system.

2. 003h When the input buffer of the host interface (DBBlN)
is full, and the IBF interrupt is enabled, the CPU
makes an interrupt call to this location.
3. 007h When the timer overflows and the timer interrupt is
enabled, the CPU makes an interrupt call to this
location.
P24 – P27 can be used to enhance the interface to the host
system. P24 and P25 can be used to reflect the state of the
OBF and IBF flags respectively in the STATUS register using the ‘‘EN FLAGS’’ instruction. After executing this instruction, P24 reflects the value of the OBF pin and P25
reflects the value of the IBF pin. Data written to P24 and
P25 serve as a mask to the output. When a 1 is written, P24
outputs the state of the OBF flag and P25 outputs the complement state of the IBF flag. When 0 is written, the output
is forced to zero. These OBF and IBF pins can be used as
the interrupt requests to the host system for data transfer
handshaking.
The ‘‘EN DMA’’ instruction configures P26 and P27 as DRQ
and DACK pins. After executing this instruction, P26 and
P27 can be utilized for DMA transfers between the host
system and the PC87303. P26 goes active when 1 is written
to it. It can be used as the DRQ to the host system. When
P27 which is connected to the DACK of the system is pulled
active, data can be read or written through D0–D7, hence
completing the DMA cycle. P26 is reset to zero when P27 is
pulled active or the ‘‘EN DMA’’ instruction is executed. The
latter case allows the PC87303 to abort a DMA request.
9.1.3 Data Memory and Registers
The keyboard controller has 256 Bytes of data memory, including 2 banks of registers, 8 registers each, and an 8-level
stack. Figure 9-4 shows the data RAM organization.
RAM locations 0h – 7h are used as register bank0. They are
designated as R0 – R7 respectively. Register bank1 (R0Ê –
R7Ê ) are located in 18h – 1Fh of the address map. Bank0 is
the default register bank when the chip comes out from reset. Bank switching is accomplished by using ‘‘register bank
select’’ instructions (SEL RB0, SEL RB1). Locations 8h –
17h are reserved for the stack. Each stack entry consists of
2 bytes. Figure 9-5 shows the organization of the stack. The
stack pointer in the PSW register points to the top of the
stack. A 0 in the stack pointer corresponds to RAM locations 8h and 9h.
9.1.2 Program Memory
The keyboard controller of the PC87303 has a 2k x 8 ROM
based program memory. An 10-bit program counter allows
direct access to every location of the program memory. Figure 9-4 shows the memory map. There are three special
locations associated with hardware functions.
1. 000h After the keyboard controller is reset, the program
counter is initialized to 000h.

Program Status Word Register (PSW)
General Purpose I/O
This 8-bit register holds the program execution status. The
bit definition of the PSW register is shown in Figure 9-6 .
The 16 general purpose I/O lines, P10 – P17 and P20 – P27,
are mapped to Port 1 and Port 2 respectively. These I/O
lines are quasi-bidirectional because the output buffer cannot be turned off even if the I/O line is intended for input.
When a 0 is written to an I/O line, it behaves like an output.
When a 1 is written to an I/O line, it behaves like an input.
On reset, all I/O lines are inputs.

is not restored if an RET Return instruction is executed. See
Figure 9-5 .
Figure 9-7 illustrates the structure of the I/O line. Q1 and Q2
are the normal output transistors. When the I/O line is intended for output, 0 is written into the flip-flop, which latches, and Q2 turns on. When 1 is written, Q1 turns on briefly
because it is gated by a short port-write pulse also. Q1
charges up the pad to near VCC and then turns off. An active pull-up transistor Q3 turns on also, but it provides a
large pull-up resistance because it is a weak transistor. At
this stage, the I/O line can be used as input: a low impedance low voltage can override the pin and the input buffer
reads a low level input. If the pin is driven high or undriven, a
high level is read. Therefore, to use a port pin as input, a
logic 1 must first be written to it. When the keyboard controller is reset, all port lines will be initialized to logic 1.
Because Q1 turns on momentarily when a write to the port
is performed there is potential for a current surge. A series
resistor connected to those port lines used as inputs, is recommended to limit the potential surge (Figure 9-8) .
9.1.4 I/O Interface
The keyboard controller of the PC87303 provides 16 general purpose I/O lines, two open-collector output lines and
two input lines as shown in the Functional Block Diagram in
Figure 9-1 .

FIGURE 9-8. Using Port Pins as Inputs

9.0 Keyboard Controller and Real-Time Clock (Continued)
Figure 9-9 shows the two different clock sources for the
counter. The clock source is selected by software.
When the port line is used as an output, an active pull-up
technique is used (instead of a traditional pull-up resistor),
which turns on Q3 only when Q2 is off, hence eliminating a
steady current flow.
Timer Operation
The counter can be set to the timer operation mode by connecting its clock source to the internal timing generator. The
clock frequency to the timer is equal to the oscillator frequency divided by 480.
The initial value of the timer is programmable. After the timer is started (by STRT T instruction), it counts up continuously until it is stopped or the keyboard controller is reset.
The Timer Overflow Flag is set when the count value overflows from FFh back to 00h. The Timer Overflow Flag can
be tested by a conditional jump instruction (JTF). This instruction also resets the flag. When the timer interrupt is
enabled, an interrupt occurs when the timer overflows. This
is discussed more detail in the interrupt section.
Open-Collector Outputs
In order to reduce the glue logic used in a PC-AT compatible
environment, four dedicated open-collector outputs are provided: KBCLK, KBDAT, MCLK and MDAT. KBCLK is the
complement of P26. KBDAT is the complement of P27.
MCLK is the complement of P23. MDAT is the complement
of P22. These four drivers can drive 16 mA, making them
suitable for driving keyboard and mouse cables. TEST0 and
TEST1 must be externally connected to KBCLK and KBDAT
in the PC-AT compatible applications.
Test Inputs
TEST0 and TEST1 are two dedicated input pins. Conditional
jump instructions directly check the level of these two pins.
TEST1 also serves as the event counter input.
Event Counter Operation
When the clock input of the counter is switched to the external input (TEST1), it essentially becomes an event counter.
The falling edge of the signal on the TEST1 pin causes the
counter to increment. Timer Overflow Flag and Timer interrupt operate in the same way as they do in the timer mode.
Connection to the I/O Expander
The number of keyboard controller I/O pins can be expanded by adding one or more 8243 I/O Expander chips. Each
I/O expander offers 16 I/O port pins designated as Port 4,
5, 6, and 7. The keyboard controller makes use of the P20 –
P24 and the Strobe pin to interface with the 8243.
9.1.6 Interrupts
The keyboard controller of the PC87303 provides 2 different
internal interrupts. They are the Input Buffer Full (IBF) interrupt and Timer Overflow interrupt. These two interrupts can
be independently enabled or disabled by software. Both of
them are disabled when the chip comes out from reset.
9.1.5 Timer/Counter
The keyboard controller is equipped with an 8-bit counter
which can be used as a timer or an event counter.
TL/C/12074 – 44
FIGURE 9-9. Timing Generation and Timer Circuit
89
9.0 Keyboard Controller and Real-Time Clock (Continued)
Most of the keyboard controller instructions require only one
instruction cycle. The others require two cycles. Refer to the
instruction set for details.
Timer Interrupt
If the timer interrupt is enabled, upon the timer overflow, an
interrupt occurs. It causes the program to perform a subroutine call to program address 007h. The interrupt is cleared
by this subroutine call. The current Program Counter (PC)
and the upper 4 bits of the PSW is pushed into the stack
before the call occurs. At the end of the timer interrupt service routine, an RETR instruction restores the PSW and the
PC. Because the timer interrupt has a lower priority than the
IBF interrupt, simultaneous IBF and timer interrupts cause
the timer interrupt to be pending. It is served as soon as the
program returns from the IBF interrupt service routine.
Input Buffer Full (IBF) Interrupt
If the lBF interrupt is enabled, when there is a host write
operation to the keyboard controller (CS e 0, IOW e 0), an
interrupt occurs. The processor saves the current Program
Counter and the upper 4 bits of the PSW into the stack and
performs a subroutine call to the program address 003h.
Upon entering the interrupt service routine, further interrupts
are held off. The interrupt is re-enabled upon the execution
of the RETR instruction.
TL/C/12074 – 45
FIGURE 9-10. Internal Clock Connection
9.1.7 Oscillator and Instruction Timing
The oscillator pins of the keyboard controller are X1 and X2,
when bit 7 of KRR is 0. When bit 7 of KRR is 1, the Keyboard Controller clock is SYSCLK. Figures 9-10 and 9-11
show the connections for internal and external clock configuration via X1 and X2 pins.
The oscillator clock is divided by 3 to generate the state
timing, then is further divided down by 5 to generate the
instruction timing (Figure 9-12) . Hence each instruction cycle consists of 5 states and 15 clock cycles.

Interrupt. See Control Register A in the Control Register and
Interrupt section for divider configurations and rate selections.
During divider reset (bits 6 – 4 of Control Register A e 11x),
the divider chain is reset to 0. An update will occur 500 ms
after the divider chain is activated into normal operational
mode (bits 6 – 4 of Control Register A e 010). The periodic
flag also becomes active 1/2 of the programmed value
when the divider chain is activated.
9.2 REAL-TIME CLOCK FUNCTION
The RTC in the PC87303 is a low-power clock that provides
a time-of-day clock and 100-year calendar with alarm features and battery operation. Other features include three
maskable interrupt sources and 242 bytes of general purpose RAM. Valid RAM and time can be maintained through
the use of an external battery source. It is software compatible with the DS1287 and MC146818.
9.2.1 Memory Map
The RTC contains 14 time and control registers. It also contains 242 bytes of general purpose battery backed static
RAM in two banks. RAMSEL is used to select the active
bank. Refer to Table 9-2.
Figure 9-13 represents the internal and external circuitry
that comprise the oscillator. The oscillator input may be driven from an external source. If this is desired, the input
should be driven rail to rail and be approximately a 50%
duty cycle. The oscillator output should be open in this case.
The external capacitor values should be chosen to provide
the manufacturer’s specified load capacitance for the crystal when combined with the parasitic capacitance of the
trace, socket, and package, which can vary from 0 pF to
8 pF. The rule of thumb in choosing these capacitors is:
CL e (C1 * C2)/(C1 a C2) a Cparasitic
C2 l C1
C1 can be trimmed to obtain the 32768.0 Hz.
9.2.2 Bus Interface
The RTC function is mapped to I/O locations 70h (index)
and 71h (data). This decode is done internal to the
PC87303.
9.2.3 Time Generation
The Time Generation function divides the 32.768 kHz from
the external clock pins (X1C, X2C) down to a one Hertz
signal. The divider chain is controlled by bits 6–4 of Control
Register A. Bits 3–0 of Control Register A select one of

The time is updated once per second. If a read of the timing
registers coincides with an update, data read may not be
valid. Also, writes to time registers during an update have
undefined results.
To avoid accessing invalid data, the RTC in the PC87303
provides a user copy of the time registers. Then four methods are available for reading and writing time to ensure that
the correct time is written or read. They are as follows:
Method 1ÐSet the SET bit. (CRB7)
Set the SET bit to 1. This takes a snapshot of the internal
time registers and loads it into the user copy. Then when
the SET bit is written with 0, the user copy will update the
internal registers.
Method 2ÐAccess after detection of an Update Ended
Interrupt.
This interrupt indicates that an update has just completed
and the next update will occur after 999 ms.
Method 3ÐPoll update-in-progress (bit 7 in Control Register A).
The update occurs 244 ms after the update-in-progress
bit goes high. Therefore if a 0 is read, there is a minimum
of 244 ms in which the time is guaranteed to remain stable.
Method 4ÐUse a Periodic interrupt to determine if an
update cycle is in progress.
The periodic interrupt is first set to a desired period. The
program can then use the periodic interrupt to signify that
there is (Periodic Interrupt/2 a 244 ms) remaining until
another update occurs.
The Alarm condition is also generated by the Time Keeping
function. After each update, the seconds, minutes, and
hours are compared with the seconds alarm, minutes alarm,
and hours alarm. If equal, the Alarm lag is set in Control

9.2.4 Time Keeping
The time is kept in BCD or binary format. The format is
determined by bit 2 of Control Register B (DM). Either 12 or
24 hour representation for the hours can be maintained as
determined by bit 1 of Control Register B (24/12). Note that
when changing the format the time registers must be re-initialized to the corresponding data format.
Daylight savings and leap year exceptions are handled by
the time keeping function. When bit 0 of Control Register A
(DSE) is a ‘‘1’’, time advances from 1:59:59 AM to 3:00:00
on the first Sunday in April. On the last Sunday of October
time changes from 1:59:59 to 1:00:00 when daylight savings
is enabled. On leap year February is extended to 29 days.

Register C. This causes an interrupt condition (IRQZ e 0) if
the Alarm Interrupt Enable bit is set in Control Register B. If
both bit 7 and bit 6 of any alarm byte (seconds alarm, minutes alarm, hours alarm) are 1, then that alarm byte is a
‘‘don’t care’’.
9.2.7 System Bus Lock Out and Power-Up Detection
As the RTC switches to battery power all inputs are locked
out so that the internal registers can not be modified. This
lockout condition continues for 62 ms (min) to 125 ms (max)
after the RTC switches from battery power to system power.
The 62 ms – 125 ms lockout during power transition from
battery to system power depends on the following conditions:
1. If the Divider Chain Control (bits 6 – 4 in Control Register
A) is in any mode but Normal Operation (010), all inputs
are enabled immediately upon detection of system voltage above that of battery voltage.
2. When Battery voltage is below 1V and MR is 1, all inputs
are enabled immediately upon detection of system voltage above that of battery voltage. This also initializes registers 00 through 0D to 00.
3. If the VRT bit (bit 7 in Control Register D) is 0, all inputs
are enabled immediately upon detection of system voltage above that of battery voltage.
9.2.5 RAM
The RAM data is accessed at locations 0E–7F when
RAMSEL (bit 2) of the configuration registers is 0, and locations 00 –7F when RAMSEL is 1. Battery backed power enables the RAM to retain information during system powerdown.
9.2.6 Power Management
The Power Management function provides power to the
RTC in the PC87303. During system operation, power from
the system is used. When system voltage falls below battery
voltage, the Power Management function switches the RTC
cell to battery power. For proper operation, a 500 mV differential is needed between VCC and VBAT. Figure 9-15 represents a typical battery configuration and Figure 9-16 represents typical battery current during battery backed mode.
9.2.8 Oscillator
When power is applied to the RTC in the PC87303, the
Oscillator is operational with the following exceptions:
1. The VRT bit (bit 7 in Control Register D) is a 0. The oscillator is disabled after initial power-up. This reduces power
consumption during the time between when the battery is
initially installed and when the RTC is initialized for timekeeping.
2. The Divider Chain Control (bits 6 – 4 in Control Register A)
is in Oscillator Disabled modes (000 and 001). This provides a means for the user to ‘‘shut-down’’ the oscillator
and reduce the power consumption of the RTC cell. The
RAM remains functional when the oscillator is disabled.
TL/C/12074 – 50
FIGURE 9-15. Typical Battery Configuration
9.2.9 Interrupt Handling
The Periodic, Alarm, and Update ended Interrupts are generated (IRQZ is driven low) when the respective enable bits
in Control Register B are set and an interrupt condition occurs. A read from Register C clears the active interrupt. If a
second interrupt condition occurs (other than that which
caused the interrupt) during a read from Register C, IRQZ
remains active (low). Thus, it is recommended that when
multiple interrupts are enabled, the interrupt service routine
continues to read (and service interrupts) until bit 7 of Control Register C (IRQ Flag) returns to a 1. Note that if an
interrupt is not serviced before a second condition of the
same interrupt occurs, the second interrupt event is lost.
