Operating Modes
Mode 2 (Strobed Bi-Directional Bus I/O)
The functional configuration provides a means for communi-
cating with a peripheral device or structure on a single 8-bit
bus for both transmitting and receiving data (bi-directional
bus I/O). “Hand shaking” signals are provided to maintain
proper bus flow discipline similar to Mode 1. Interrupt gener-
ation and enable/disable functions are also available.
Mode 2 Basic Functional Definitions:
• Used in Group A only
• One 8-bit, bi-directional bus Port (Port A) and a 5-bit
control Port (Port C)
• Both inputs and outputs are latched
• The 5-bit control port (Port C) is used for control and
status for the 8-bit, bi-directional bus port (Port A)
Bi-Directional Bus I/O Control Signal Definition
(Figures 11, 12, 13, 14)
INTR - (Interrupt Request). A high on this output can be
used to interrupt the CPU for both input or output operations.
Output Operations
OBF - (Output Buffer Full). The OBF output will go “low” to
indicate that the CPU has written data out to port A.
ACK - (Acknowledge). A “low” on this input enables the
three-state output buffer of port A to send out the data. Oth-
erwise, the output buffer will be in the high impedance state.
INTE 1 - (The INTE flip-flop associated with
OBF). Con-
trolled by bit set/reset of PC4.
Input Operations
STB - (Strobe Input). A “low” on this input loads data into the
input latch.
IBF - (Input Buffer Full F/F). A “high” on this output indicates
that data has been loaded into the input latch.
INTE 2 - (The INTE flip-flop associated with IBF). Controlled
by bit set/reset of PC4.

Combinations of Mode 1: Port A and Port B can be individually defined as input or output in Mode 1 to support a wide variety of strobed I/O
applications.
