Operating Mode Selection

The H8S/2633 Series has four operating modes (modes 4 to 7). These modes enable selection of
the CPU operating mode, enabling/disabling of on-chip ROM, and the initial bus width setting, by
setting the mode pins (MD2 to MD0).
Table 3-1 lists the MCU operating modes.

Note: * Not available in the H8S/2633 Series.
The CPU's architecture allows for 4 Gbytes of address space, but the H8S/2633 Series actually
accesses a maximum of 16 Mbytes.
Modes 4 to 6 are externally expanded modes that allow access to external memory and peripheral
devices.
The external expansion modes allow switching between 8-bit and 16-bit bus modes. After program
execution starts, an 8-bit or 16-bit address space can be set for each area, depending on the bus
controller setting. If 16-bit access is selected for any one area, 16-bit bus mode is set; if 8-bit
access is selected for all areas, 8-bit bus mode is set.
Note that the functions of each pin depend on the operating mode.
