2. 2 A simple bus bus structure ProcessorMemory rd'/wr enable addr[0-11] data[0-7] bus Wires: –Uni-directional or bi-directional –One line may represent multiple wires Bus –Set of wires with a single function Address bus, data bus –Or, entire collection of wires Address, data and control Associated protocol: rules for communication

3. 3 Timing Diagrams write protocol rd'/wr enable addr data t setup t write Most common method for describing a communication protocol Time proceeds to the right on x-axis Control signal: low or high –May be active low (e.g., go’, /go, or go_L) –Use terms assert (active) and deassert –Asserting go’ means go=0 Data signal: not valid or valid Protocol may have subprotocols –Called bus cycle, e.g., read and write –Each may be several clock cycles Read example –rd’/wr set low,address placed on addr for at least t setup time before enable asserted, enable triggers memory to place data on data wires by time t read read protocol rd'/wr enable addr data t setup t read

4. 4 Microprocessor interfacing: I/O addressing A microprocessor communicates with other devices using some of its pins –Port-based I/O (parallel I/O) Processor has one or more N-bit ports Processor’s software reads and writes a port just like a register E.g., P0 = 0xFF; v = P1.2; -- P0 and P1 are 8-bit ports –Bus-based I/O Processor has address, data and control ports that form a single bus Communication protocol is built into the processor A single instruction carries out the read or write protocol on the bus

5. 5 Types of bus-based I/O: memory-mapped I/O and standard I/O Processor talks to both memory and peripherals using same bus – two ways to talk to peripherals –Memory-mapped I/O Peripheral registers occupy addresses in same address space as memory e.g., Bus has 16-bit address –lower 32K addresses may correspond to memory –upper 32k addresses may correspond to peripherals –Standard I/O (I/O-mapped I/O) Additional pin (M/IO) on bus indicates whether a memory or peripheral access e.g., Bus has 16-bit address –all 64K addresses correspond to memory when M/IO set to 0 –all 64K addresses correspond to peripherals when M/IO set to 1

6. 6 Memory-mapped I/O vs. Standard I/O Memory-mapped I/O –Requires no special instructions Assembly instructions involving memory like MOV and ADD work with peripherals as well Standard I/O requires special instructions (e.g., IN, OUT) to move data between peripheral registers and memory Standard I/O –No loss of memory addresses to peripherals –Simpler address decoding logic in peripherals possible When number of peripherals much smaller than address space then high-order address bits can be ignored –smaller and/or faster comparators

7. 7 Consider a simple processor. I call it the simple processing unit (SPU).

38. 38 Figure 1. AT90S8515 with expanded memory. What should we do with A16? Answer: connect it to an unused port pin. Question: How could we map the entire 128K bytes of memory to the top 32 Kbytes of the AVR address space. Answer: Connect AVR A15 to /CE on U4. Now the memory is selected only when the AVR addresses the top have of the memory address space where A15 = 1. Connect A15 and A16 of U4 to unused AVR port pins. By changing these port pin, any of the four 32 K byte pages of U4 memory can be switched in and out of the AVR address space.
