The following port power allocation list is based on many things,
including known peripheral requirements and existing power supply
capabilities. These numbers are maximums for each port when used
independently, but the numbers can
be
accumulated (except for
joysticks) when a particular system configuration will guarantee
th9~ it exclusively uses more
than
one port.
The power pins of both joystick ports are tied together and to
a current limited +5 supply. At present, the current limit is set
at 700 ma peak with a 400 ma foldback at steady state short
circuit conditions. The combined utilization of both ports is
limited to 250 ma to insure a minimum voltage drop at
the
pins.

PARALLEL INTERFACE CONNECTOR SPECIFICATION
The 25-pin D-type connector with pins (DB25P=male) at the rear of the
Amiga is nominally used to interface to parallel printers. In this
capacity, data flows from the Amiga to the printer. This interface
may also
be
used for input or bidirectional data transfers. The
implementation is similar to Centronics, but the pin assignment and
drive characteristics vary significantly from that specification
(see Pin Assignment). Signal names correspond to those used in the
other places in this appendix, when possible.

DO-D7 comprise an eight-bit bidirectional bus for
communication with parallel devices,
nominally, a printer.
Output-data-acknowledge from parallel device in
output mode, used in conjunction with DRDY' (pin 1)
for a two-line asynchronous handshake. Functions as
input-data-ready from parallel device in input mode
(similar to DRDY' in output mode) .
See
timing diagrams. The 8520 can
be
programned to
conditionally generate a level 2 interrupt to
the
68000 whenever
the
ACK* input goes active.
This is a general purpose I/O pin shorted to a ..
serial data I/O pin (serial clock on pin 12) .
Note: Nominally used to indicate printer buffer full.
This is a general purpose I/O pin shorted to a
serial clock I/O pin (serial data on pin 11).
Note: Nominally used to indicate printer paper out.
This is a general purpose I/O pin.
Note: nominally a select output from
the
parallel
device to
the
Amiga.
