However, there are some special things to note when using the Expansion Bus in HPI
mode of operation. These features are shown in the following tables. There are also
some restrictions on the timing parameters and these are outlined in Section 42.4.1.3,
“Expansion Bus Interface Configuration” on page 1676.
The Expansion-bus address-pins bits 0, 1, 2, 22, and 23 are multiplexed with special
function signal pins for HPI as shown in Table 42-3.

The byte identification signal, EX_HBIL, is used to determine the byte transfer order.
(EX_HBIL is driven low for the first byte of the transfer and driven high for the second
byte.)
The byte order bit (BOB) in the HPIC register (contained in the DSP) — within the HPI
device — is used to determine the placement for the two bytes of the transfer. Please
consult the datasheet of the specific DSP being connected to determine the order of the
transferred bytes.
When operating in HPI mode, bits 13:10 in the Timing and Control (EXP_TIMING_CS)
Registers are ignored.
When operating in HPI-16, non-multiplexed mode, the Expansion bus address bus
provides direct accesses to the DSP memory space. The data associated with this
address will be read or written from the location specified by the value contained on the
Expansion Bus address bits.The signals EX_HCNTL [1:0] are multiplexed onto the
EX_ADDR [2:1] pins. When communicating to a multiplexed HPI interface, the
EX_HCNTL [1:0] signals are used to select one of four internal registers used for
interfacing to the DSP. The EX_HCNTL [1:0] mapping is described in the Table 42-4.
