3.7.16 Signal Description – PC/104 Connector (CN6, CN8)
3.7.16.1 Address
LA [23:17]
The address signals LA [23:17] define the selection of a 128KB section of memory space within
the 16MB address range of the 16-bit data bus. These signals are active high. The validity of
the MEMCS16# depends on these signals only. These address lines are presented to the
system with tri-state drivers. The permanent master drives these lines except when an alternate
master cycle occurs; in this case, the temporary master drives these lines. The LA signals are
not defined for I/O accesses.
SA [19:0]
System address. Address lines for the first one Megabyte of memory. SA [9:0] used for I/O
addresses. SA0 is the least significant bit
SBHE#
This signal is an active low signal, that indicates that a byte is being transferred on the upper
byte (SD [15:8]) of the 16 bit bus. All bus masters will drive this line with a tri-state driver.
3.7.16.2 Data
SD [15:8]
These signals are defined for the high order byte of the 16-bit data bus. Memory or I/O
transfers on this part of the bus are defined when SBHE# is active.
SD [7:0]
These signals are defined for the low order byte of the 16-bit data bus being the only bus for 8
bit PC-AT/PC104 adapter boards. Memory or I/O transfers on this part of the data bus are
defined for 8-bit operations with even or odd addresses and for 16-bit operations for odd
addresses only. The signals SA0 and SBHE# are used to define the data present on this bus:
