6.1
Overview
The H8/3067 Group has an on-chip bus controller (BSC) that manages the external address space
divided into eight areas. The bus specifications, such as bus width and number of access states,
can be set independently for each area, enabling multiple memories to be connected easily.
The bus controller also has a bus arbitration function that controls the operation of the internal bus
masters-the CPU, DMA controller (DMAC), and DRAM interface and can release the bus to an
external device.
6.1.1
Features
The features of the bus controller are listed below.
• Manages external address space in area units
Manages the external space as eight areas (0 to 7) of 128 kbytes in 1M-byte modes, or 2
Mbytes in 16-Mbyte modes
Bus specifications can be set independently for each area
DRAM/burst ROM interfaces can be set
• Basic bus interface
Chip select (CS
8-bit access or 16-bit access can be selected for each area
Two-state access or three-state access can be selected for each area
Program wait states can be inserted for each area
Pin wait insertion capability is provided
• DRAM interface
DRAM interface can be set for areas 2 to 5
Row address/column address multiplexed output (8/9/10 bits)
2-CAS byte access mode
Burst operation (fast page mode)
T
cycle insertion to secure RAS precharging time
P
Choice of CAS-before-RAS refreshing or self-refreshing
• Burst ROM interface
Burst ROM interface can be set for area 0
Selection of two- or three-state burst access
