Port C Pin Assignments
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 3-2
summarizes the port C signal assignments for each configuration.
Consult Chapter 6, Programming, for register-level programming
information.
Note: Table 3-2 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, ComponentWorks, LabWindows/CVI, and LabVIEW
documentation refers to them as handshaking and no handshaking. These
signal assignments are the same for all four 82C55A PPIs. Refer to Port
Identification in Chapter 6, Programming, for more information.
