MC68040 Floating-Point Emulation (MC68040FPSP)
for descriptions of emulator use of
this signal.
5.7.2 Reset In (
RSTI
)
This input signal causes the M68040 to enter reset exception processing. The
RSTI
signal
is an asynchronous input that is internally synchronized to the next rising edge of the
BCLK signal. All three-state signals are set to the high-impedance state, and all outputs,
except
MI
, are negated when
RSTI
is recognized. The assertion of
RSTI
does not affect
the test pins. Refer to
Section 7 Bus Operation
for a description of reset operation and to
Section 8 Exception Processing
for information about the reset exception.
5.7.3 Reset Out (
RSTO
)
The M68040 asserts this output during execution of the RESET instruction to initialize
external devices. Refer to
Section 7 Bus Operation
for a description of reset out bus
operation.
5.8 INTERRUPT CONTROL SIGNALS
The following signals control the interrupt functions.
5.8.1 Interrupt Priority Level (
IPL2
–
IPL0
)
These input signals provide an indication of an interrupt condition and the encoding of the
interrupt level from a peripheral or external prioritizing circuitry.
IPL2
is the most significant
bit of the level number. For example, since the
IPLˉ
signals are active low,
IPL2
–
IPL0
= $5
corresponds to an interrupt request at interrupt priority level 2.
During a processor reset, the levels on the
IPLˉ
lines are latched and used to select the
output driver characteristics for three signal groups listed in Table 5-5. Refer to
Section 8
Exception Processing
for information on interrupts and to
Section 11 MC68040
Electrical and Thermal Characteristics
for information on driver characteristics. Refer to
Appendix A MC68LC040
and
Appendix B MC68EC040
for how these signals are
different on power-up.
