EXPANSION PORTS AND I/O PERIPHERALS
7.1
INTRODUCTION
The upper 128 locations of the X and Y Data memories are defined as the I/O space. The Y memory I/O
space is wholly external, while the X memory I/O space is internal. The X memory I/O space is used to ad-
dress the I/O Interface registers as well as the bus, port select and interrupt control registers. Both I/O spac-
es may be accessed by regular X and Y memory MOVE instructions. The MOVEP instructions offer I/O
short addressing and memory to memory move capability for easy data transfers with the I/O mapped reg-
isters.
The on-chip I/O peripherals are intended to minimize system chip count and "glue" logic in many applica-
tions. Each I/O interface has its own control, status and data registers memory-mapped into the X memory
I/O space. Each interface has several dedicated interrupt vector addresses and control bits to enable/dis-
able interrupts. This minimizes the overhead associated with servicing the device since each interrupt
source has its own service routine.
Three on-chip peripherals are provided in the DSP96002:
•
a 32-bit parallel Host MPU/DMA Interface connected to Port A.
•
a 32-bit parallel Host MPU/DMA Interface connected to Port B.
•
a two-channel DMA Controller.

EXPANSION PORTS CONTROL
The DSP96002 has two external expansion ports (Port A and Port B). Each port has a bus control register
where memory wait states may be specified, parameter and control bits for a page circuit dedicated to
DRAM/VRAM memory support are located, and control bits for direct software control of

7.2.1 Bus Control Registers (BCRA and BCRB)
There are 2 identical BCR registers, one for each port. The Bus Control Registers (BCRx) may be pro-
grammed to insert wait states in a bus cycle during external memory accesses. They are also used to pro-
gram the Page Fault circuitry and for direct software control of the
