PC Card (PCMCIA) Interface
The PXA27x processor requires external glue logic to complete the 16-bit PC Card socket interface
that allows either 1-socket or 2-socket solutions.
The following illustrations show general solutions for a one- and two-socket configurations:
•
Figure 6-10, "External Logic for a One-Socket Configuration Expansion PC Card," on page II:
6-27
•
Figure 6-11, "External Logic for a Two-Socket Configuration Expansion PC Card," on
page II: 6-28
The pull-ups shown are included as specified in the PC Card Standard, Volume 2, Electrical
Specification, PCMCIA/JEITA. Low-power systems must remove power from the pull-ups during
sleep to avoid unnecessary power consumption.
GPIO or memory-mapped external registers controls the reset of the 16-bit PC Card interface,
power selection (VCC and VPP), and drive enables. The INPACK# signal is not used.
