Preliminary specification
SAA2501
The actions shown in Fig.15 are:
1. In order for the SAA2501 to keep L3DATA in 3-state,
L3MODE must be kept LOW during the whole period
that reset signal at pin RESET is asserted; meanwhile,
no transfers can be performed (L3CLK stays HIGH).
2. For a proper initialization of the L3 interface logic of the
SAA2501, it is mandatory to make L3MODE HIGH and
LOW again after the device reset has been
de-activated. This must be done before any L3
transfer, even to or from other devices than the
SAA2501, is performed. Figure 14 shows that L3CLK
stays HIGH during this step.
3. Now the first transfer can be performed on the L3 bus.
This transfer must be a operational address (indicated
in Fig.14 by L3MODE = 0), addressing any of the
devices connected to the L3 bus. The first transfer to
the SAA2501 itself must always be either the writing of
a control word or the reading of the SAA2501 status;
the first transfer may never be a data item byte
transfer.
Remark: any deviation from these steps may result in
illegal L3 protocol behaviour of the SAA2501, even with
the possibility of disturbing transfers to other devices
connected to the L3 bus.
7.20.4 L3 INTERFACE CONTROL
The control of the SAA2501 L3 interface is performed with
one-byte control words. Status polling is not necessary
before writing control bytes. After writing the SAA2501
‘write control’ operational address, one or more control
bytes may be written. Each written control byte overrules
the previously sent control byte.

Note
1. Control bytes of type I initiate the transfer of a data item. The control byte of type C may be used after interrupting a
transfer, in order to write APU coefficients, to return to the interrupted transfer.
