PCMCIA Output Port Signals (OP[0:4])
A PCMCIA slot can use the signals in
Table 16-3
to control the RESET input and output enable of the
buffers to the card. The MPC885 gives software a way to control the output signal state. This function is
not necessarily specific to the PCMCIA interface; a system can use these signals as a general-purpose
output port.
16.2.4
Other PCMCIA Signals
The PCMCIA socket uses the signals in
Table 16-4
, although their function is not necessarily specific to
PCMCIA
SPKR_x
Speaker. input. When the card and socket are programmed for I/O interface operation, BVD2_x is
used as digital audio (SPKR_x) and is generated by I/O PC cards. SPKR_x must be used to provide
the socket’s single amplitude (digital) audio wave form to the system. The SPKR_x signal of all
sockets are XORed and routed through the speaker out signal (SPKROUT).
RDY/ BSY_x,
IREQ_x
Ready/busy or interrupt request. Input. When the card and its socket are programmed for memory
interface operation, this signal is used as RDY/BSY_x and must be asserted by a PC card to indicate
that the PC card is busy processing a previous write command. When the card and its socket are
programmed for I/O interface operation, this signal is used as IREQ_x and must be asserted by a
PC card to indicate that a device on the PC card requires service by host software. Must be held
negated when no interrupt is requested. These signals are connected to IP_x7.

Description
RESET_x
Card reset. Output. Provided to clear the card’s configuration option register, thus placing the card
in its default (memory-only interface) state and beginning an additional card initialization. RESET_A
is connected to OP0 and RESET_B is connected to OP3.
POE_x
PCMCIA buffers output enable. An output port line reflecting the value of PGCRx[CxOE]. Used to
three-state address and strobe lines addressing each slot. POE_A connects to OP1; POE_B
connects to OP2.

Description
IRQ
Power is on. Input. The card power supply circuitry can use two of the IRQ signals as
general-purpose interrupt requests to notify the MPC885 when the card’s power supply reaches the
full required voltage.
SPKROUT
Speaker out. Output. Provides a digital audio wave form to be driven to the system’s speaker. It is
generated as a logic exclusive OR of the SPKR_A and SPKR_B input signals.
Note: General purpose timer 1 can be used to drive SPKROUT. When enabled, timer 1 is exclusive
ORed with the resulting exclusive OR of the SPKR_A and SPKR_B input signals to generate
SPKROUT. See
Section 17.2.2.6, “Timer 1 and SPKROUT.”
