Tab. 10.4: Expansion I/O ports description table
Please note that:
•
The SELx and nOEx signals are meaningful only for the A395D mezzanine card. When this mezzanine is not used,
these signals can be left undriven.
•
Mezzanines with 32 I/O signals have a one-to-one correspondence between physical signals and I/O pins (i.e.
X[i] corresponds to the i-th channel of the mezzanine).
In case the A395D mezzanine is used, the mapping between the external channels and the X bus is shown in
. A schematic view of the A395D board is shown in

Simplified scheme related to Tab. 10.5.
For example:
•
A395D channel 0 can be driven with signal X[0] and its status can be read from X[2].
•
A395D channel 1 can be driven with signal X[16] and its status can be read from X[18].
