PRELIMINARY
MCS chip selects, or they can be configured to access
the 64-Kbyte I/O space.
The PCS pins are not active on reset. PCS6–PCS5 can
be programmed for zero to three wait states. PCS3–
PCS0 can be programmed for four additional wait-state
values: 5, 7, 9, and 15.
INTERRUPT CONTROL UNIT
The Am186ED/EDLV microcontrollers can receive in-
terrupt requests from a variety of sources, both internal
and external. The internal interrupt controller arranges
these requests by priority and presents them one at a
time to the CPU.
The AUXCON register can be used to configure PCS There are up to eight external interrupt sources on the

range is determined by the width of the non-UCS/non- interrupt pins and one nonmaskable interrupt (NMI)
LCS memory range or by the width of the I/O area.
pin. In addition, there are eight internal interrupt

peripheral chip select asserts over a 256-byte address
range, which is twice the address range covered by
peripheral chip selects in the 80C186/188 microcon-
trollers.
sources (three timers, two DMA channels, two asyn-
chronous serial ports, and the Watchdog Timer NMI)
that are not connected to external pins. INT5 and INT6
are multiplexed with DRQ0 and DRQ1. These two in-
terrupts are available if the associated DMA is not en-
abled or is being used with internal synchronization.
The PCS allows for overlap in memory space with the
DRAM (RAS0, RAS1) space. Overlap of the PCS with
LCS, MCS, or UCS in a non-DRAM mode is not recom-
mended. If overlap of the PCS with MCS, LCS, or UCS
occurs, the same number of wait states and external
ready must be used. If overlap of PCS with DRAM
T ^{space occurs, the DRAM controller will assert RAS and}
stop the CAS signal from asserting. This will not modify
the contents of the DRAM and the access will continue
as a normal PCS access. When overlapping the PCS

for PCS space. PCS wait states must be greater than
or equal to DRAM wait states. The ready and wait
states will be determined by the PCS programming in
the MPCS and PACS registers.
A _{PCS space should not contain the address FFFFFh,}
which is the address used for a refresh cycle. The
AD15–AD0 bus will drive FFFFh during a refresh cycle
for the address portion of cycle.
R ^{REFRESH CONTROL UNIT}
The refresh control unit (RCU) automatically generates
refresh bus cycles when enabled. After a programma-
ble period of time, the RCU generates a CAS-before-
D ^{RAS refresh bus cycle. The RCU should not be en-}
The Am186ED/EDLV microcontrollers provide up to six
interrupt sources not present on the 80C186 and
80C188 microcontrollers. There are up to three addi-
tional external interrupt pins—INT4, INT5, and INT6.
These pins operate much like the INT3–INT0 interrupt
pins on the 80C186 and 80C188 microcontrollers.
There are also two internal interrupts from the serial
ports and the watchdog timer can generate interrupts.
INT5 and INT6 are multiplexed with the DMA request
signals, DRQ0 and DRQ1. If a DMA channel is not en-
abled, or if it is not using external synchronization, then
the associated pin can be used as an external interrupt.
INT5 and INT6 can also be used in conjunction with the
DMA terminal count interrupts.
The seven maskable interrupt request pins can be
used as direct interrupt requests. INT4–INT0 can be ei-
ther edge-triggered or level-triggered. INT6 and INT5
are edge-triggered only. In addition, INT0 and INT1 can
be configured in cascade mode for use with an external
82C59A-compatible interrupt controller. When INT0 is
configured in cascade mode, the INT2 pin is automati-
cally configured in its INTA0 function. When INT1 is
configured in cascade mode, the INT3 pin is automati-
cally configured in its INTA1 function. An external inter-
rupt controller can be used as the system master by
abled if at least one bank of DRAM is not enabled. All programming the internal interrupt controller to operate

the A19–A0 bus is undefined; the AD15–AD0 bus is
driven with all 1s (FFFFh). The PCS and MCS chip se-
lects are decoded by the processor using a 20-bit ver-
sion of the AD bus. The highest four bits of this internal
bus are not available externally; however, internally
these bits are set to all 1s during a refresh cycle, result-
ing in the 20-bit address FFFFFh. For this reason, the
MCS and PCS chip selects should not contain the ad-
dress FFFFFh while DRAM is enabled.
Interrupts are automatically disabled when an interrupt
is taken. Interrupt-service routines (ISRs) may
re-enable interrupts by setting the IF flag. This allows
interrupts of greater or equal priority to interrupt the
currently executing ISR. Interrupts from the same
source are disabled as long as the corresponding bit in
the interrupt in-service register is set. INT1 and INT0
provide a special bit to enable special fully nested
mode. When configured in special fully nested mode,
the interrupt source may generate a new interrupt
regardless of the setting of the in-service bit.
