Pin Description (Continued)
The following pin function descriptions are for 80C88 system in maximum mode (i.e., MN/MX = GND). Only the pin functions which
are unique to the maximum mode are described; all other pin functions are as described above.

I/O REQUEST/GRANT: pins are used by other local bus masters to force the processor to release the local
bus at the end of the processor’s current bus cycle. Each pin is bidirectional with RQ/GT0 having higher
priority than RQ/GT1. RQ/GT has internal bus-hold high circuitry and, if unused, may be left unconnected.
The request/grant sequence is as follows (see RQ/GT Timing Sequence):
1. A pulse of one CLK wide from another local bus master indicates a local bus request (“hold”) to the
80C88 (pulse 1).
2. During a T4 or T1 clock cycle, a pulse one clock wide from the 80C88 to the requesting master (pulse
2), indicates that the 80C88 has allowed the local bus to float and that it will enter the “grant sequence”
state at the next CLK. The CPUs bus interface unit is disconnected logically from the local bus during
“grant sequence”.
3. A pulse one CLK wide from the requesting master indicates to the 80C88 (pulse 3) that the “hold”
request is about to end and that the 80C88 can reclaim the local bus at the next CLK. The CPU then
enters T4 (or T1 if no bus cycles pending).
Each master-master exchange of the local bus is a sequence of three pulses. There must be one idle CLK
cycle after bus exchange. Pulses are active LOW.
If the request is made while the CPU is performing a memory cycle, it will release the local bus during T4
of the cycle when all the following conjugations are met:
1. Request occurs on or before T2.
2. Current cycle is not the low bit of a word.
3. Current cycle is not the first acknowledge of an interrupt acknowledge sequence.
4. A locked instruction is not currently executing.
If the local bus is idle when the request is made the two possible events will follow:
1. Local bus will be released during the next clock.
2. A memory cycle will start within 3 clocks. Now the four rules for a currently active memory cycle apply
with condition number 1 already satisfied.
O LOCK: indicates that other system bus masters are not to gain control of the system bus while LOCK is
active (LOW). The LOCK signal is activated by the “LOCK” prefix instruction and remains active until the
completion of the next instruction. This signal is active LOW, and is held at a high impedance logic one
state during “grant sequence”. In Max Mode, LOCK is automatically generated during T2 of the first INTA
cycle and removed during T2 of the second INTA cycle.
