DESCRIPTION
IN
This input is used to select the master clock to the
device. If it is high, the 28MHz input is enabled; if
low, the XCLK is enabled.
OUT
This signal is a clock, which is obtained after dividing
the 28.63 MHZ clock by eight It is also known as the
color clock frequency for NTSC applications.
OUT
This clock is the CCK clock shifted by 90 degrees.
OUT
This clock is obtained after dividing the 28MHZ clock
by four.
OUT
This clock is obtained after inverting the 7MHZ clock
and shifting it by 90 degrees.
IN
Active high. When this signal is asserted, it disables
the processor cycle and the 8370 internal registers
can be accessed on every CCK clock cycle.
This device is an address generator type IC. Its main function is as a
RAM address generator and register address encoder that produces
all DMA addresses from 25 channels.
The block diagram (Figure 6.3) for this device shows the DMA con-
trol and address bus logic. The output of each controller indicates
the number of DMA channels driving the Register Address Encoder
and RAM Address Generator.
The Register Address Encoder is a simple PLA type of structure that
produces a predetermined address on the RGA bus whenever one of
the DMA channels is active.
The RAM Address Generator contains an 18-bit pointer register for
each of the 25 DMA channels. It also contains pointer restart
(backup) registers and jump registers for six (6) of the channels. A
full 18-bit adder carries out the pointer increments and adds for
jumps.
