MOTO
I
Selection input for Intel/Motorola μP Interface.
Setting this pin to a logic "High" configures the Microprocessor Interface to operate in the Motorola
mode. Likewise, setting this pin to a logic "Low" configures the Microprocessor Interface to operate
in the Intel Mode.
D[7:0]
I/O
Bi-Directional Data Bus for register read or write operations
A[11:0]
I
Twelve Bit Address Bus input:
This Twelve bit Address Bus is provided to allow the user to select an on-chip register or on-chip
RAM location and Select the desired Framer Channel to address.
CS
I
Chip Select input.
This active-”Low” signal selects the Microprocessor Interface of the UNI device and enables read/
write operations with the on-chip registers/on-chip RAM.
INT
O
Interrupt Request Output:
This open-drain/active-low output signal will inform the local
μP
that the UNI has an interrupt condi-
tion that needs servicing.

ESCRIPTION
ALE_AS
ALE
I
Address-Latch Enable:
This “active-high” signal is used to latch the contents on
the address bus, A[11:0]. The contents of the Address Bus are latched into the
A[11:0] inputs on the falling edge of ALE_AS. Additionally, this signal can be
used to indicate the start of a burst cycle.
RD_DS
RD*
I
Read Signal:
This “active-low” input functions as the read signal from the local
μP
. When this signal goes "Low", the UNI Microprocessor Interface will place the
contents of the addressed register on the Data Bus pins (D[15:0]). The Data Bus
will be "tri-stated" once this input signal returns "High".
WR_R/W
WR*
I
Write Signal:
This "active-low" input functions as the write signal from the local
μP
. The contents of the Data Bus (D[15:0]) will be written into the addressed reg-
ister (via A[11:0]), on the rising edge of this signal.
RDY_DTCK
READY*
O
Ready Output:
This "active-low" signal is provided by the UNI device, and indi-
cates that the current read or write cycle is to be extended until this signal is
asserted. The local
μP
will typically insert WAIT states until this signal is
asserted. This output will toggle "Low" when the device is ready for the next
Read or Write cycle.
