Port C Pin Connections
The signals assigned to port C depend on how the 82C55A is configured.
In mode 0 or no handshaking configuration, port C is configured as
two 4-bit I/O ports. In modes 1 and 2, or handshaking configuration, port C
is used for status and handshaking signals with zero, two, or three lines
available for general-purpose I/O. Table 3-3 summarizes the port C signal
assignments for each configuration.
Note
Table 3-3 shows both the port C signal assignments and the terminology
correlation between different documentation sources. The 82C55A terminology
refers to the different 82C55A configurations as modes, whereas NI-DAQ and
LabVIEW documentation refers to them as handshaking and no handshaking.
These signal assignments are the same for all four 82C55A PPIs.
