3.1Ball Assignments

The SC1200/SC1201 processor is highly configurable as illustrated in Figure 3-1 on page 25. Strap options and reg- ister programming are used to set various modes of opera- tion and specific signals on specific balls. This section describes which signals are available on which balls and provides configuration information:

Figure 3-2 on page 28: Illustrates the BGU481 ball assignments.

Table 3-2 on page 29: Lists signals according to ball number. Power Rail, Signal Type, Buffer Type and, where relevant, Pull-Up or Pull-Down resistors are indi- cated for each ball in this table. For multiplexed balls, the necessary configuration for each signal is listed as well.

Table 3-3 on page 40: Quick reference signal list sorted alphabetically - listing all signal names and ball numbers.

The tables in this chapter use several common abbrevia- tions. Table 3-1lists the mnemonics and their meanings

Notes:

1)For each GPIO signal, there is an optional pull-up resistor on the relevant ball. After system reset, the pull-up is present.

This pull-up resistor can be disabled via registers in the Core Logic module. The configuration is without regard to the selected ball function (except for GPIO12, GPIO13, and GPIO16). Alternate functions for GPIO12, GPIO13, and GPIO16 control pull-up resistors.

For more information, see Section 6.4.1 "Bridge, GPIO, and LPC Registers - Function 0" on page 190.

2)Configuration settings listed in this table are with regard to the Pin Multiplexing Register (PMR). See Section 4.2 "Pin Multiplexing, Interrupt Selection, and Base Address Registers" on page 72 for a detailed description of this register.

#

The # symbol in a signal name indicates

 

that the active or asserted state occurs

 

when the signal is at a low voltage level.

 

Otherwise, the signal is asserted when

 

at a high voltage level.

 

 

/

A / in a signal name indicates both func-

 

tions are always enabled (i.e., cycle mul-

 

tiplexed).

 

 

+

A + in signal name indicates the function

 

is available on the ball, but that either

 

strapping options or register program-

 

ming is required to select the desired

 

function.
