Table 1. Pin Description

The following pin function descriptions are for 8088 systems in either minimum or maximum mode. The "local bus" in these descriptions is the direct multiplexed bus interface connection to the 8088 (without regard to additional bus buffers).

I/O

Address Data Bus: These lines constitute the time multiplexed memory/IO

 

 

 

address (T1) and data (T2, T3, Tw, and T4) bus. These lines are active HIGH and

 

 

 

float to 3-state OFF during interrupt acknowledge and local bus "hold acknowl-

 

 

 

edge".

 

 

 

A15-A8

Address Bus: These lines provide address bits 8 through 15 for the entire bus

 

 

 

cycle (T1-T4). These lines do not have to be latched by ALE to remain valid.

 

 

 

A15-A8 are active HIGH and float to 3-state OFF during interrupt acknowledge

 

 

 

and local bus "hold acknowledge".

RD

32

0

Read: Read strobe indicates that the processor is performing a memory or I/O

 

 

 

read cycle, depending on the state of the 10/~ pin or S2. This signal is used to

 

 

 

read devices which reside on the 8088 local bus. RD is active lOW during T2, T3

 

 

 

and Tw of any read cycle, and is guaranteed to remain HIGH in T2 until the 8088

 

 

 

local bus has floated.

 

 

 

 

 

 

This signal floats to 3-state OFF in "hold acknowledge".

 

 

READY

22

I

READY: is the acknowledgement from the add ressed memo ry or I/O device that

 

 

 

it will complete the data transfer. The RDY signal from memory or I/O is syn-

 

 

 

chrpnized by the 8284 clock generator to form READY. This signal is active

 

 

 

HIGH. The 8088 READY input is not synchronized. Correct operation is not

 

 

 

guaranteed if the set up and hold times are not met.

 

 

INTR

18

I

Interrupt Request: is a level triggered input which is sampled during the last

 

 

 

clock cycle of each instruction to determine if the processor should enter into an

 

 

 

interrupt acknowledge operation. A subroutine is vectored.to via an interrupt

 

 

 

vector lookup table located in system memory. It can be internally masked by

 

 

 

software resetting the interrupt enable bit.INTR is internally synchronized. This

 

 

 

signal is active HIGH.

 

 

 

TEST

23

I

TEST: input is examined by the "wait for test" instruction. If the TEST input is

 

 

 

lOW, execution continues, otherwise the processor waits in an "idle" state. This

 

 

 

input is synchronized internally during each clock cycle on the leading edge of

 

 

 

ClK.

 

 

 

NMI

17

I

Non·Maskable Interrupt: is an edge triggered input which causes a type 2

 

 

 

interrupt. A subroutine is vectored to via an interrupt vector lookup table located

in system memory. NMI is not maskable internally by software. A transition from a lOW to HIGH initiates the interrupt at the end of the current instruction. This input is internally synchronized.
