80C187
input signals to determine whether the cycle is a
read or a write cycle and examines the CMD0 and
CMD1 inputs to determine whether an opcode oper-
and or control status register transfer is to occur
The 80C187 activates its BUSY output some time
after the leading edge of the NPRD or NPRW signal
Input and ouput data are referenced to the trailing
edges of the NPRD and NPRW signals
The 80C187 activates the PEREQ signal when it is
ready for data transfer The 80C187 deactivates
PEREQ automatically
System Configuration
The 80C187 can be connected to the 80C186 CPU
as shown by Figure 9 (Refer to the 80C186 Data
Sheet for an explanation of the 80C186’s signals )
This interface has the following characteristics
 The 80C187’s NPS1 ERROR PEREQ and
BUSY pins are connected directly to the corre-
sponding pins of the 80C186
 The 80C186 pin MCS3 NPS is connected to
NPS1 NPS2 is connected to VCC Note that if the
80C186 CPU’s DEN signal is used to gate exter-
nal data buffers it must be combined with the
NPS signal to insure numeric accesses will not
activate these buffers
 The NPRD and NPRW pins are connected to the
RD and WR pins of the 80C186
 CMD1 and CMD0 come from the latched A2 and
A1 of the 80C186 respectively
 The 80C187 BUSY output connects to the
80C186 TEST BUSY input During RESET the
signal at the 80C187 BUSY output automatically
programs the 80C186 to use the 80C187
 The 80C187 can use the CLKOUT signal of the
80C186 to conserve board space when operating
at 12 5 MHz or less In this case the 80C187
CKM input must be pulled HIGH For operation in
excess of 12 5 MHz a double-frequency external
oscillator for CLK input is needed In this case
CKM must be pulled LOW
