5- 2- 1 Printer Status Port Address Offset = 01H
The Status Port is located at an offset of '01H' from the base address. The contents of this register are
latched for the duration of an IOR# read cycle. The bits of the Status Port are defined as follows:

BUSY
Bit 7 BUSY# (BUSY)
This signal is active during data entry, when the printer is off-line during printing, when the print head is
changing position, or during an error state. When this signal is active, the printer is busy and cannot
accept data. This bit is the inversion value of the Busy input pin.
Bit 6 ACK# (ACKNOWLEDGE)
The level on the ACK# input is read by the CPU as bit 6 of the Printer Status Register. A logic 0 means
that the printer has received a character and can now accept another. A logic 1 means that it is still
processing the last character or has not received the data.
Bit 5 PE (PAPER END)
The level on the PE input is read by the CPU as bit 5 of the Printer Status Register. A logic 1 indicates a
paper end; a logic 0 indicates the presence of paper.
Bit 4 SLCT (PRINTER SELECTED STATUS)
The level on the SLCT input is read by the CPU as bit 4 of the Printer Status Register. A logic 1 means
the printer is on line; a logic 0 means it is not selected.
Bit 3 ERR# (ERROR)
The level on the Error# input is read by the CPU as bit 3 of the Printer Status Register. A logic 0 means
an error has been detected; a logic 1 means no error has been detected.
Bits 1, 2: are not implemented as register bits, during a read of the Printer Status Register these bits are
Logic High.

Bit 0 TMout: TIME OUT
The bit is valid in EPP mode only and indicates that a 10 uSec time out has occurred on the
EPP bus. A logic 0 means that no time out error has occurred; a logic 1 means that a time out error has
been detected. This bit is cleared by a RESET. Writing a one to this bit clears
the time out status bit. On a write, this bit is self clearing and does not require a write of a zero. Writing a
zero to this bit has no effect.
5-2-2 Printer Control Port
ADDRESS PORT = 02H
The Control Port is located at an offset of '02H" from the base address. The Control Register is initialized by
the RESET input, bits 0 to 5 only being affected; bits 6 and 7 are Logic High.

Bit 6 and 7 These tow bits are Logic High during a read, and cannot be written.
Bit 5 PDIR (PARALLEL DIRECTION CONTROL)
Parallel Direction Control is not valid in printer mode. In printer mode, the direction is always out regardless
of the state of this bit. In bi-directional, EPP or ECP mode, A logic 0 means that the printer port is in output
mode (write); A logic 1 means that the printer port is in input mode (read).
Bit 4 IRQEn (INTERRUPT REQUEST ENABLE)
The interrupt request enable bit when set to a high level may be used to enable interrupt requests from the
Parallel Port to the CPU. An interrupt request is generated on the IRQ port by a positive going ACK# input.
When the IRQEn bit is programmed low the IRQ is disabled.

Bit 3 SLIN (PRINTER SELECT INPUT)
This bit is inverted and output onto the SLIN# output. A logic 1 on this bit selects the printer; a logic 0
means the printer is not selected.
Bit 2 INIT# (INITIATE OUTPUT)
A 0 starts the printer (50 microsecond pulse, minimum).
Bit 1 AFD (AUTOFEED)
This bit is inverted and output onto the AFD# output. A logic 1 causes the printer to generate a line feed
after each line is printed. A logic 0 means no autofeed.
Bit 0 STB (STROBE)
A 0.5 microsecond minimum high active pulse clocks data into the printer. Valid data must be present for a
minimum of 0.5 microseconds before and after the strobe pulse. This bit is inverted and output onto the
STB# output.
5-2-3 EPP Address Port

The contents of DB0-DB7 are b uffered (non- inverting) and output to ports PD0-PD7 during a write
operation. The leading edge of LOW causes an EPP address write cycle to be performed, and
the trailing edge of LOW latches the data for the duration of the EPP write cycle.
PD0-PD7 ports are read during a read operation. The leading edge of IOR causes and EPP address read
cycle to be performed and the data to be output to the host CPU.

5-2-5 EPP 1.9 Operation
When the EPP mode is selected in the configuration register, the standard and bi-directional modes are
also available. If no EPP Read, Write or Address cycle is currently executing, then the PDx bus is in the
standard or bi-directional mode, and all output signals (STB, AFDD, INIT) are as set by the SPP Control
Port and direction is controlled by PCD of the Control port.
In EPP mode, the system timing is closely coupled to the EPP timing. For this reason, a watchdog
timer is required to prevent system lockup. The timer indicates if more than 10usec have elapsed
from the start of the EPP cycle (IOR# or IOW# asserted ) to WAIT# being deasserted (after command). If
a time-out occurs, the current EPP cycle is aborted and the time-out condition is indicated in Status bit
0.
During an EPP cycle, if STROBE is active, it overrides the EPP write signal forcing the PDx bus to
always be in a write mode and the WRITE# signal to always be asserted.
5-2-6 EPP Version 1.7 Operation
When the EPP 1.7 mode is selected in the configuration register, the standard and bi-directional modes
are also available. If no EPP Read, Write or Address cycle is currently executing, then the PDx bus is in
the standard or bi-directional mode, and all output signals (STB, AFD, INIT) are as set by the SPP
Control Port and direction is controlled by PCD of the Control port.
In EPP mode, the system timing is closely coupled to the EPP timing. For this reason, a watchdog
timer is required to prevent system lockup. The timer indicates if more than 10usec have elapsed from
the start of the EPP cycle (IOR# or IOW# asserted) to the end of the cycle IOR# or IOW# deasserted). If
a time-out occurs, the current EPP cycle is aborted and the time-out condition is indicated in Status bit
0.

5-3-1.1 Data and ECP- AFIFO Port
ADDRESS OFFSET = 400H
Modes 000 and 001 (Data Port)
The Data Port is located at an offset of '00H'from the base address. The data register is cleared at
initialization by RESET. During a WRITE operation, the Data Register latches the contents of the data
bus on the rising edge of the IOW# input. The contents of this register are buffered (non inverting) and
output onto the PD0-PD7 ports. During a READ operation, PD0-PD7 ports are read and output to the
host CPU.
Mode 011 (ECP FIFO-Address/RLE)
A data byte written to this address is placed in the FIFO and tagged as an ECP Address/RLE. The
hardware at the ECP port transmits this byte to the peripheral automatically. The operation of this
register is only defined for the forward direction (direction is 0). Refer to the ECP Parallel Port Forward
Timing Diagram, located in the Timing Diagrams section of this data sheet.

5-3-1.2 Device Status Register (DSR)
The Status Port is located at an offset of '01H'from the base address. Bits 0-2 are not implemented as
register bits; during a read of the Printer Status Register these bits are a low level. The bits of the Status
Port are defined as follows:
Bit 0-2: the Status Port is located at an offset of '01H'from the base address. Bits 0-2 are not implemented as register bits; during a read of the Printer Status Register these bits are a low level.
Bit 3 Fault# : The level on the Fault# input is read by the CPU as bit 3 of the Device Status Register.
Bit 4 SLCT: The level on the Select input is read by the CPU as bit 4 of the Device Status Register.
Bit 5 PError: The level on the PError input is read by the CPU as bit 5 of the Device Status Register.
Printer Status Register.
Bit 6 ACK#: The level on the ACK# input is read by the CPU as bit 6 of the Device Status Register.
Bit 7 BUSY#: This complement of the level on the BUSY input is read by the CPU as bit 7 of the Device
Status Register.
5-3-1.3 Device Control Register (DCR)
The Control Register is located at an offset of '02H'from the base address. The Control Register is
initialized to zero by the RESET input, bits 0 to 5 only being affected; bits 6 and 7 are hard wired low.
Bit 6 and 7 during a read are a low level, and cannot be written.
Bit 5 PDIR:
If mode=000 or mode=010, this bit has no effect and the direction is always out regardless of the state of
this bit. In all other modes, Direction is valid and a logic 0 means that the printer port is in output mode
(write); a logic 1 means that the printer port is in input mode (read).
Bit 4 AckIntEn-INTERRUPT REQUEST ENABLE: The interrupt request enable bit when set to a high
level may be used to enable interrupt requests from the Parallel Port to the CPU due to a low to high
transition on the ACK# input. Refer to the description of the interrupt under Operation, Interrupts.
Bit 3 SLIN: This bit is inverted and output onto the SLIN# output. A logic 1 on this bit selects the printer;
a logic 0 means the printer is not selected.
Bit 2 INIT# (INITIATE OUTPUT):
This bit is output onto the INIT# output without inversion.
Bit 1 AFD (AUTOFEED):
This bit is inverted and output onto the AFD# output. A logic 1 causes the printer to generate a line feed
after each line is printed. A logic 0 means no autofeed.
Bit 0 STB (STROBE):
This bit is inverted and output onto the STROBE# output.

5-3-1.4 C-FIFO (Parallel Port Data FIFO) Mode = 010
ADDRESS OFFSET = 400H
Bytes written or DMAed from the system to this FIFO are transmitted by a hardware handshake to the
peripheral using the standard parallel port protocol. Transfers to the FIFO are byte aligned. This mode is
only defined for the forward direction.
5-3-1.5 ECP- DFIFO (ECP Data FIFO) Mode = 011
ADDRESS OFFSET = 400H
Bytes written or DMAed from the system to this FIFO, when the direction bit is 0, are transmitted by a
hardware handshake to the peripheral using the ECP parallel port protocol. Transfers to the FIFO are byte
aligned. Data bytes from the peripheral are read under automatic hardware handshake from ECP into this
FIFO when the direction bit is 1. Reads or DMAs from the FIFO will return bytes of ECP data to the
system.
5-3-1.6 T- FIFO (Test FIFO Mode) Mode = 110
ADDRESS OFFSET = 400H
Data bytes may be read, written or DMAed to or from the system to this FIFO in any direction.
Data in the T-FIFO will not be transmitted to the parallel port lines using a hardware protocol
handshake. However, data in the T-FIFO may be displayed on the parallel port data lines.
The T-FIFO will not stall when overwritten or underrun. If an attempt is made to write data to a full T-FIFO,
the new data is not accepted into the T-FIFO. If an attempt is made to read data from an empty T-FIFO,
the last data byte is re-read again. The full and empty bits must always keep track of the correct FIFO
state. The T-FIFO will transfer data at the maximum ISA rate so that software may generate performance
metrics.
The FIFO size and interrupt threshold can be determined by writing bytes to the FIFO and checking the
full and ServiceIntr bits.
The writeIntrThreshold can be determined by starting with a full T-FIFO, setting the direction bit to 0 and
emptying it a byte at a time until ServiceIntr is set. This may generate a spurious interrupt, but will
indicate that the threshold has been reached.
The readIntrThreshold can be determined by setting the direction bit to 1 and filling the empty T-FIFO a
byte at a time until ServiceIntr is set. This may generate a spurious interrupt, but will indicate that the
threshold has been reached.
Data bytes are always read from the head of T-FIFO regardless of the value of the direction bit. For
example if 44h, 33h, 22h is written to the FIFO, then reading the T-FIFO will return 44h, 33h, 22h in the
same order as was written.
5-3-1.7 Cnfg-A (Configuration Register A) Mode = 111
ADDRESS OFFSET = 400H

Mode [7:5]
Description
000
Standard Parallel Port Mode. In this mode the FIFO is reset and common collector drivers
are used on the control lines (STB#, AFD#, lNIT# and SLIN#). Setting the direction bit will
not tri-state the output drivers in this mode.
001
PS/2 Parallel Port Mode. Same as above except that direction may be used to
tri-state the data lines and reading the data register returns the value on the data lines and
not the value in the data register. All drivers have active pull-ups (push-pull).
010
Parallel Port FIFO Mode. This is the same as 000 except that bytes are written or DMAed
to the FIFO. FIFO data is automatically transmitted using the standard parallel port protocol.
Note that this mode is only useful when direction is 0. All drivers have active pull-ups (pushpull).
011
ECP Parallel Port Mode. In the forward direction (direction is 0) bytes placed into the ECPDFIFO and bytes written to the ECP-AFIFO are placed in a single FIFO and transmitted
automatically to the peripheral using ECP parallel port and packed into bytes in the ECPDFIFO. All drivers have active pull-ups (push-pull).
100
Selects EPP Mode: In this mode, EPP is selected if the EPP supported option in selected
in configuration register L3-CRFO. All drivers have active pull-ups (push-pull).
101
Reserved
110
Test Mode. In this mode the FIFO may be written and read, but the data will not be
transmitted on the parallel port. All drivers have active pull-ups (push-pull).
111
Configuration Mode. In this mode the Cnfg-A, Cnfg-B registers are accessible at
Ox400 and Ox401. All drivers have active pull-ups (push-pull).

Bit 4 ErrIntrEn# : Read/Write (Valid only in ECP Mode)
1 Disables the interrupt generated on the asserting edge of Fault#.
0 Enables an interrupt pulse on the high to low edge of Fault#. Note that an interrupt will be generated if
Fault# is asserted (interrupting) and this bit is written from a 1 to a 0. This prevents interrupts from being
lost in the time between the read of the ECR and the write of the ECR.
Bit 3 DMAEn
Read/Write
1 Enables DMA (DMA starts when Servicelntr is 0).
0 Disables DMA unconditionally.
Bit 2 Servicelntr
Read/Write
Disables DMA and all of the service interrupts.
Enables one of the following 3 cases of interrupts. Once one of the 3 service interrupts has occurred
Servicelntr bit shall be set to a 1 by hardware. It must be reset to 0 to re-enable the interrupts.
Writing this bit to a 1 will not cause an interrupt.
Case DMAEn=1
During DMA (this bit is set to a 1 when terminal count is reached).
Case DMAEn=0 direction=0
This bit shall be set to 1 whenever there are WriteIntrThreshold or more bytes free in the FIFO.
Case DMAEn=0 direction=1
This bit shall be set to 1 whenever there are ReadlntrThreshold or more valid bytes to be read from the
FIFO.
Bit 1 full
Read only
1 The FIFO cannot accept another byte or the FIFO is completely full.
0 The FIFO has at least 1 free byte.
Bit 0 empty
Read only
1 The FIFO is completely empty.
0 The FIFO contains at least 1 byte of data.

5-3-2 Operation
Mode Switching / Software Control
Software will execute P1284 negotiation and all operation prior to a data transfer phase under programmed
I/O control (mode 000 or 001). Hardware provides an automatic control line handshake, moving data
between the FIFO and the ECP port only in the data transfer phase (modes 011 or 010).
Setting the mode to 011 or 010 will cause the hardware to initiate data transfer.
If the port is in mode 000 or 001 it may switch to any other mode. If the port is not in mode 000 or 001 it
can only be switched into mode 000 or 001. The direction can only be changed in mode 001.
Once in an extended forward mode the software should wait for the FIFO to be empty before switching
back to mode 000 or 001. In this case all control signals will be deasserted before the mode switch. In an
ECP reverse mode the software waits for all the data to be read from the FIFO before changing back to
mode 000 or 001. Since the automatic hardware ECP reverse handshake only cares about the state of the
FIFO it may have acquired extra data which will be discarded. It may in fact be in the middle of a transfer
when the mode is changed back to 000 or 001. In this case the port will deassert AFD# independent of the
state of the transfer. The design shall not cause glitches on the handshake signals if the software meets
the constraints above.
5-3-2.1 ECP Operation
Prior to ECP operation the Host must negotiate on the parallel port to determine if the peripheral supports the ECP protocol. This is a somewhat complex negotiation carried out under program control in
mode 000.
After negotiation, it is necessary to initialize some of the port bits. The following are required:
l Set Direction=0, enabling the drivers.
l Set Strobe=0, causing the STB# signal to default to the deasserted state.
l Set AutoFeed=0, causing the AFD# signal to default to the deasserted state.
l Set mode=011 (ECP Mode)
ECP address/RLE bytes or data bytes may be sent automatically by writing the ECP-AFIFO or
ECP-DFIFO respectively.
Note that all FIFO data transfers are byte wide and byte aligned. Address/RLE transfers are byte-wide and
only allowed in the forward direction.
The host may switch directions by first switching to mode=001, negotiating for the forward or reverse channel, setting direction to 1 or 0, then setting mode= 011. When direction is 1 the hardware shall handshake
for each ECP read data byte and attempt to fill the FIFO. Bytes may then be read from the ECP-DFIFO as
long as it is not empty.
ECP transfers may also be accomplished (albeit slowly) by handshaking individual bytes under program
control in mode = 001, or 000.
5-3-2.2 Termination form ECP mode
Termination form ECP Mode is similar to the termination from Nibble/Byte Modes. The host is permitted to
terminate from ECP Mode only is specific well-defined states. The termination can only be executed while
the bus is in the forward direction. While the channel is in the reverse direction, it must first be transitioned
Rev. B.02
into the forward direction.

5-3-2.3 Command/Data
ECP Mode supports two advanced features to improve the effectiveness of the protocol for some applications. The features are implemented by allowing the transfer of normal 8-bit commands.
When in the forward direction, normal data is transferred when HostAck is high and an 8-bit command is
transferred when HostAck is low.
The most significant bit of the command indicates whether it is a run-length count (for compression) or a channel address.
When in the reverse direction, normal data is transferred when PeriphAck is high and an 8-bit command
is transferred when PeriphAck is low. The most significant bit of the command is always zero. Reverse
channel addresses are seldom used and may not be supported in hardware.
5-3-2.4 Data Compression
The ECP port supports run length encoded (RLE) decompression in hardware and can transfer compressed data to a peripheral. Run length encoded (RLE) compression in hardware is not supported. To
transfer compressed data in ECP mode, the compression count is written to the ECP-AFIFO and the
data byte is written to the ECP-DFIFO.
Compression is accomplished by counting identical bytes and transmitting an RLE byte that indicates
how many times the next byte is to be repeated. Decompression simply intercepts the RLE byte and
repeats the following byte the specified number of times. When a run-length count is received from a
peripheral, the subsequent data byte is replicated the specified number of times. A run-length count of
zero specifies that only one byte of data is represented by the next data byte, whereas a run-length
count of 127 indicates that the next byte should be expanded to 128 bytes. To prevent data expansion,
however, run-length counts of zero should be avoided.

5-3-2.5 Pin Definition
The drivers for STB#, AFD#, lNIT#
and SLIN# are open-collector in mode 000 and are push-
pull in all other modes.
5-3-2.6 ISA Connections
The interface can never stall causing the host to hang. The width of data transfers is strictly controlled on
an I/O address basis per this specification. All FIFO-DMA transfers are byte wide; byte aligned and end
on a byte boundary. (The PWord value can be obtained Configuration Register A, Cnfg-A, described in the next section.) single byte wide transfers are always possible with standard or PS/2 mode
using program control of the control signals.

5-3-2.7 Interrupts
The interrupts are enabled by Servicelntr in the ECR register.
Servicelntr = 1 Disables the DMA and all of the service interrupts.
Servicelntr = 0 Enables the selected interrupt condition. If the interrupting condition is valid, then the
interrupt is generated immediately when this bit is changed from a 1 to a 0. This can occur during
Programmed I/O if the number of bytes removed or added from/to the FIFO does not cross the threshold.
The interrupt generated is ISA friendly in that it must pulse the interrupt line low, allowing for interrupt
sharing. After a brief pulse low following the interrupt event, the interrupt line is tri-stated so that
other interrupts may assert.
An interrupt is generated when:
1. For DMA transfers: When Servicelntr is 0, DMAEn is 1and the DMA TC is received.
2. For Programmed I/O:
a. When Servicelntr is 0, DMAEn is 0, direction is 0 and there are writeIntrThreshold or more free
bytes in the FIFO. Also, an interrupt is generated when Servicelntr is cleared to 0 whenever there
are writeIntrThreshold or more free bytes in the FIFO.
b. When Servicelntr is 0, DMAEn is 0, direction is 1 and there are readlntrThreshold or more bytes
in the FIFO. Also, an interrupt is generated when Servicelntr is cleared to 0 whenever
there are readlntrThreshold or more bytes in the FIFO
3. When ErrIntrEn# is 0 and Fault# transitions from high to low or when ErrIntrEn# is set from 1 to 0 and
ErrIntrEn# is set from 1 to 0 and Fault# is asserted.
4. When AckIntEn is 1 and the ACK# signal transitions from a low to a high.
5-3-2.8 FIFO Operation
The FIFO threshold is set in the chip configuration registers. All data transfers to or from the parallel port
can proceed in DMA or Programmed I/O (non-DMA) mode as indicated by the selected mode. The FIFO
is used by selecting the Parallel Port FIFO mode or ECP Parallel Port Mode. (FIFO test mode will be
addressed separately.) After a reset, the FIFO is disabled. Each data byte is transferred by a Programmed I/O cycle or PDRQ depending on the selection of DMA or Programmed I/O mode.
The following paragraphs detail the operation of the FIFO flow control. In these descriptions, <threshold>
ranges from 1 to 16. The parameter FIFOTHR, which the user programs, is one less and ranges from 0 to
15.
A low threshold value (i.e.2) results in longer periods of time between service requests, but requires faster
servicing of the request for both read and write cases. The host must be very responsive to the service
request. This is the desired case for use with a "fast" system.
A high value of threshold (i.e.2) is used with a "sluggish" system by affording a ling latency period after a
service request, but results in more frequent service requests.

5-3-2.9 DMA Transfers
DMA transfers are always to or from the ECP-DFIFO, T-FIFO or C-FIFO. DMA utilizes the standard PC
DMA services. To use the DMA transfers, the host first sets up the direction and state as in the programmed I/O case. Then it programs the DMA controller in the host with the desired count and memory
address. Lastly it sets DMAEn to 1 and Servicelntr to 0. The ECP requests DMA transfers from the host
by activating the PDRQ pin. The DMA will empty or fill the FIFO using the appropriate direction and
mode. When the terminal count in the DMA controller is reached, an interrupt is generated and
Servicelntr is asserted, disabling DMA. In order to prevent possible blocking of refresh requests dReq
shall not be asserted for more than 32 DMA cycles in a row. The FIFO is enabled directly by asserting
PDACK# and addresses need not be valid. PINTR is generated when a TC is received. RDRQ must not
be asserted for more than 32 DMA cycles in a row. After the 32nd cycle, PDRQ must be kept unasserted
until PDACK# is deasserted for a minimum of 350nsec. (Note: The only way to properly terminate DMA
transfers is with a TC.)
DMA may be disabled in the middle of a transfer by first disabling the host DMA controller. Then setting
Servicelntr to 1, followed by setting DMAEn to 0, and waiting for the FIFO to become empty or full.
Restarting the DMA is accomplished by enabling DMA in the host, setting DMAEn to 1, followed by
setting Servicelntr to 0.
5-3-2.10 DMA Mode - Transfers from the FIFO to Host
(Note: In the reverse mode, the peripheral may not continue to fill the FIFO if it runs out of data to
transfer, even if the chip continues to request more data from the peripheral.)
The ECP activates the PDRQ pin whenever there is data in the FIFO. The DMA controller must respond
to the request by reading data from the FIFO. The ECP will deactivate the PDRQ pin when the FIFO
becomes empty or when the TC becomes true (qualified by PDACK#), indicating that no more data is
required. PDRQ goes inactive after PDACK# goes active for the last byte of a data transfer (or on the
active edge of lOR#, on the last byte, if no edge is present on PDACK#). If PDRQ goes inactive due to
the FIFO going empty, then PDRQ is active again as soon as there is one byte in the FIFO. If PDRQ
goes inactive due to the TC, then PDRQ is active again when there is one byte in the FIFO, and
Servicelntr has been re-enabled. (Note: A data underrun may occur if PDRQ is not removed in time to
prevent an unwanted cycle.)
5-3-2.11 Programmed I/O (NON-DMA) Mode
The ECP or parallel port FIFOs may also be operated using interrupt driven programmed I/O. Software
can determine the WriteIntrThreshold, ReadlntrThreshold, and FIFO depth by accessing the FIFO in Test
Mode.
Programmed I/O transfers are to the ECP-DFIFO at 400H and ECP-AFIFO at 000H or from
The ECP-DFIFO located at 400H, or to/from the T-FIFO at 400H. To use the programmed I/O transfers,
the host first sets up the direction and state, sets DMAEn to 0 and Servicelntr to 0. The ECP requests
programmed I/O transfers from the host by activating the PINTR pin. The programmed I/O will empty or
fill the FIFO using the appropriate direction and mode.
Note: A threshold of 16 is equivalent to a threshold of 15. These two cases are treated the same.

5-3-2-12 Programmed I/O - Transfer from the FIFO to Host
In the reverse direction an interrupt occurs when Servicelntr is 0 and ReadlntrThreshold bytes are
available in the FIFO. If at this time the FIFO is full it can be emptied completely in a single burst,
otherwise ReadlntrThreshold bytes may be read from the FIFO in a single burst. ReadlntrThreshold=16<threshold>) data bytes in FIFO
An interrupt is generated when Servicelntr is 0 and the number of bytes in the FIFO is greater than or
equal to (16-<threshold>). (If the threshold=12, then the interrupt is set whenever there are 4-16 bytes
in the FIFO.) The PINT pin can be used for interrupt-driven systems. The host must respond to the
request by reading data from the FIFO. This process is repeated until the last byte is transferred out of
the FIFO. If at this time the FIFO is full, it can be completely emptied in a single burst, otherwise a
minimum of (16-<threshold>) bytes may be read from the FIFO in a single burst.
5-3-2-13 Programmed I/O -- Transfer from the Host to FIFO
In the forward direction an interrupt occurs when Servicelntr is 0 and there are WriteIntrThreshold or
more bytes free in the FIFO. At this time if the FIFO is empty it can be filled with a single burst before
the empty bit needs to be re-read. Otherwise it may be filled with WriteIntrThreshold bytes.
WriteIntrThreshold=(16-<threshold>) free bytes in FIFO.
An interrupt is generated when Servicelntr is 0 and the number of bytes in the FIFO is less than or equal
to <threshold>. (If the threshold=12. then the interrupt is set whenever there are 12 or less bytes of
data in the FIFO.) The PINT pin can be used for interrupt-driven systems. The host must respond to the
request by writing data to the FIFO. If at this time the FIFO is empty. It can be completely filled in a
single burst, otherwise a minimum of (16-<threshold>) bytes may be written to the FIFO in a single
burst. This process is repeated until the last byte is transferred into the FIFO.
Power management capabilities are provided for the following logical devices: floppy disk, UART 1,
UART2 and the parallel port. For each logical device, two types of power management are
provided; direct powerdown and auto powerdown.

6. Configuration Register
The configuration registers of AT7601F are implemented to provide special function control, such as power-down
mode, I/O port tri-state control, and select address-decoding modes. The current IRQ and DMA channel used for
AT7601F can be setting in configuration registers.
The configuration registers can only be accessed through configuration I/O ports (INDEX and DATA) under configuration mode. These two ports'addresses are assigned to high base address+04H and high base address+05H.
To enter configuration mode, the configuration Key (78H) must be write twice into INDEX register successively. And
write AAH into INDEX register to exit configuration mode.

configuration mode as shown following:
