PIN DESCRIPTIONS (for MSM6789L (3.3 V Version)) (Continued)
Symbol Type
Description
Mode Selection.
Low level : Stand-alone mode
High level : Microcontroller interface mode
A high input level causes the MSM6789L to be initialized and to go into the power
down state.
PDWN
I
Power Down.
When a low level is input the MSM6789L goes to the power down
state. Unlike the RESET pin, this pin does not force the MSM6789L to be reset.
When an Low level is applied to this pin during recording operation, the MSM6789L
is halted, and will be maintained in the power down state while
PDWN
is low level.
After this pin is restored to a high level, postprocessing for recording will be
performed.

Write Pulse Input.
Inputting a low pulse to
WR
pin causes a command or data
to be input via D0 to D3 pins.
Read Pulse Input.
Inputting a low pulse to
RD
pin causes status bits or data to
be output via D0 to D3 pins.
Chip Enable Input.
When the
CE
pin is set to low level and the CE pin is set to a
high level, the write pulse (
WR
) or read pulse (
RD
) can be accepted.
When the
CE
pin is set to a high level or CE pin is set to a low level, the write pulse
(
WR
) and read pulse (
RD
) cannot be accepted so that data cannot be communicated
via D0 to D3 pins.
Busy.
This pin outputs a high level while a command is being executed. When this
pin is held high, do not apply any data to D0 to D3 pins. The state of this pin is the
same as the contents of the BUSY bit of the status register.
