NMI
I
Non-Maskable Interrupt
request signal indicates that an external non-maskable
interrupt has been generated. NMI is rising-edge sensitive and must be held LOW
for at least four CLK periods before this rising edge. NMI is not provided with an
internal pull-down resistor. NMI is asynchronous, but must meet setup and hold
times t
20
and t
21
for recognition in any specific clock.
Soft Reset
pin duplicates all functionality of the RESET pin except that the
SMBASE register retains its previous value. For soft resets, SRESET must remain
active for at least 15 CLK periods. SRESET is active HIGH. SRESET is
asynchronous but must meet setup and hold times t
20
and t
21
for recognition in any
specific clock.
System Management Interrupt
input invokes System Management Mode (SMM).
SMI# is a falling-edge triggered signal which forces the embedded ULP Intel486
GX processor into SMM at the completion of the current instruction. SMI# is
recognized on an instruction boundary and at each iteration for repeat string
instructions. SMI# does not break LOCKed bus cycles and cannot interrupt a
currently executing SMM. The embedded ULP Intel486 GX processor latches the
falling edge of one pending SMI# signal while it is executing an existing SMI#. The
nested SMI# is not recognized until after the execution of a Resume (RSM)
instruction.
System Management Interrupt Active
, an active LOW output, indicates that the
embedded ULP Intel486 GX processor is operating in SMM. It is asserted when
the processor begins to execute the SMI# state save sequence and remains active
LOW until the processor executes the last state restore cycle out of SMRAM.
Stop Clock Request
input signal indicates a request was made to turn off or
change the CLK input frequency. When the embedded ULP Intel486 GX processor
recognizes a STPCLK#, it stops execution on the next instruction boundary (unless
superseded by a higher priority interrupt), empties all internal pipelines and write
buffers, and generates a Stop Grant bus cycle. STPCLK# is active LOW. Though
STPCLK# has an internal pull-up resistor, an external 10-K
pull-up resistor is
needed if the STPCLK# pin is not used.
STPCLK# is an asynchronous signal,
but must remain active until the embedded ULP Intel486 GX processor
issues the Stop Grant bus cycle. STPCLK# may be de-asserted at any time
after the processor has issued the Stop Grant bus cycle.

BUS ARBITRATION
BREQ

Bus Request
signal indicates that the embedded ULP Intel486 GX processor has
internally generated a bus request. BREQ is generated whether or not the
processor is driving the bus. BREQ is active HIGH and is never floated.
Bus Hold Request
allows another bus master complete control of the embedded
ULP Intel486 GX processor bus. In response to HOLD going active, the processor
floats most of its output and input/output pins. HLDA is asserted after completing
the current bus cycle, burst cycle or sequence of locked cycles. The embedded
ULP Intel486 GX processor remains in this state until HOLD is de-asserted. HOLD
is active HIGH and is not provided with an internal pull-down resistor. HOLD must
satisfy setup and hold times t
18
and t
19
for proper operation.
