IEI. Interrupt Enable In (input, Active High). This signal is used with Interrupt Enable
Out (IEO) to form a priority daisy chain when there is more than one interrupt-driven
device. A High on this line indicates that no higher-priority device is requesting an inter-
rupt.
IEO. Interrupt Enable Out (output, Active High). This signal is used with Interrupt Enable
In (IEI) to form a priority daisy chain when there is more than one interrupt-driven device.
A High on this line indicates that this device is requesting an interrupt, and that no higher-
priority device, is not requesting an interrupt. A Low blocks any lower-priority devices
from requesting an interrupt.
IORQ. Input/Output Request (input, Active Low). IORQ is used with RD, A0–A3, and CS
to transfer data between the KIO and the CPU. When IORQ, RD, and CS are Active Low,
the device selected by A0–A3 transfers data to the CPU. When IORQ and CS are Active
Low, but RD is Active High, the device selected by A0–A3 is written into by the CPU.
When IORQ and M1 are both Active Low, the KIO may respond with an interrupt vector
from its highest-priority interrupting device.
M1. Machine Cycle 1 (input, Active Low). When M1 and RD are Low, the Z80 CPU
fetches an instruction from memory; the KIO decodes this cycle to determine if the RETI
instruction sequence is being executed. When M1 and IORQ are both active, the KIO
decodes the cycle to be an interrupt acknowledge, and may respond with a vector from its
highest-priority interrupting device.
OSC. Oscillator (output). This output is a reference clock for the oscillator.
PA0–PA7. Port A Bus (bidirectional, tristated). One of the 8-bit ports of the PIO. PA0 is
the least-significant bit of the bus.
PB0–PB7. Port B Bus (bidirectional, tristated). One of the 8-bit ports of the PIO. PB0 is
the least-significant bit of the bus. This port can also supply 1.5mA at 1.5V to drive Dar-
lington transistors.
PC0–PC7. Port C Bus (bidirectional, tristated). PC0 is the least-significant bit of the bus.
These pins are multiplexed between the 8-bit PIA and additional modem control signals
for the serial channels.
RD. Read (input, Active Low). When RD is active, a memory or I/O read operation is in
progress. RD is used with A0–A3, CS and IORQ to transfer data between the KIO and
CPU.
RESET. Reset (input, Active Low). A Low on this pin forces the KIO into a Reset condi-
tion. This signal must be active for a minimum of three Clock cycles. The KIO resets so
that the PIO ports operate in Mode 1
• With handshakes inactive and interrupts disabled
• PIA port in Input mode and active
• CTC channel counting terminated and interrupts disabled
