				INTERFACING WITH EXTERNAL MEMORY
	Table 13-2. External Memory Interface Signals (Continued)
Name	Type			Description	Multiplexed
					With
ALE	O	Address Latch Enable			—
		This active-high output signal is asserted only during external
		memory cycles. ALE signals the start of an external bus cycle and
		indicates that valid address information is available on the system
		address/data bus (A19:16 and AD15:0 for a multiplexed bus; A19:0
		for a demultiplexed bus). ALE differs from ADV# in that it does not
		remain active during the entire bus cycle.
		An external latch can use this signal to demultiplex address bits 0–15
		from the address/data bus in multiplexed mode.
BHE#	O	Byte High Enable†			P5.5/WRH#
		During 16-bit bus cycles, this active-low output signal is asserted for
		word reads and writes and high-byte reads and writes to external
		memory. BHE# indicates that valid data is being transferred over the
		upper half of the system data bus. Use BHE#, in conjunction with A0,
		to determine which memory byte is being transferred over the
		system bus:
		BHE#	A0	Byte(s) Accessed
		0	0	both bytes
		0	1	high byte only
		1	0	low byte only
		† The chip configuration register 0 (CCR0) determines whether this
		pin functions as BHE# or WRH#. CCR0.2 = 1 selects BHE#; CCR0.2
		= 0 selects WRH#.
BREQ#	O	Bus Request			P2.3
		This active-low output signal is asserted during a hold cycle when
		the bus controller has a pending external memory cycle.
		The device can assert BREQ# at the same time as or after it asserts
		HLDA#. Once it is asserted, BREQ# remains asserted until HOLD#
		is removed.
		You must enable the bus-hold protocol before using this signal (see
		“Enabling the Bus-hold Protocol” on page 13-32).
CLKOUT	O	Clock Output			P2.7
		Output of the internal clock generator. The CLKOUT frequency is ½
		the internal operating frequency (f). CLKOUT has a 50% duty cycle.
CS5:0#	O	Chip-select Lines 0–5			P3.5:0
		The active-low output CSx# is asserted during an external memory
		cycle when the address to be accessed is in the range programmed
		for chip select x. If the external memory address is outside the range
		assigned to the six chip selects, no chip-select output is asserted
		and the bus configuration defaults to the CS5# values.
		Immediately following reset, CS0# is automatically assigned to the
		range FF2000–FF20FFH (F2000–F20FFH if external).
