Functional Overview
3.3.3 External Bus Selection Register (XBSR)
The External Bus Selection Register controls the mode of the Parallel Port Mux and Host Port Mux. The
Parallel Port Mux can be configured to support the 32-bit EMIF or to support parallel general-purpose I/O. The
Host Port Mux can be configured to support the HPI in 8-bit (multiplexed) mode or parallel general-purpose
I/O (PGPIO).
The XBSR configures the Parallel Port Mux and the Host Port Mux at reset based on the state of the GPIO6
pin at reset. When GPIO6 is high at reset, the Parallel Port Mux will be configured to support the 32-bit EMIF
and the Host Port Mux will be configured to support the HPI in 8-bit (multiplexed) mode. When GPIO6 is low
at reset, both the Parallel Port Mux and the Host Port Mux will be configured to support parallel
general-purpose I/O; the EMIF and HPI will be disabled in this mode. The Paralle/Host Port Mux Mode bit of
the XBSR will reflect the mode selected for the Parallel and Host Port Muxes.†
The clock to the EMIF module is disabled automatically when this module is not selected through the External
Bus Selection Register. Note that any accesses to disabled modules will result in a bus error if the PERITOEN
bit of the Time-Out Control Register is set to 1.

† Modifying the XBSR to change the mode of the Parallel Port Mux and Host Port Mux after the 5501 has been brought out of reset is not
