Name	Type	Description
HLDA#	O	Bus Hold Acknowledge
		This active-low output indicates that the CPU has released the bus as the result
		of an external device asserting HOLD#.
		HLDA# is multiplexed with P2.6 and CPVER.
HOLD#	I	Bus Hold Request
		An external device uses this active-low input signal to request control of the
		bus. This pin functions as HOLD# only if the pin is configured for its special
		function and the bus-hold protocol is enabled. Setting bit 7 of the window
		selection register (WSR) enables the bus-hold protocol.
		HOLD# is multiplexed with P2.5.
INST	O	Instruction Fetch
		This active-high output signal is valid only during external memory bus cycles.
		When high, INST indicates that an instruction is being fetched from external
		memory. The signal remains high during the entire bus cycle of an external
		instruction fetch. INST is low for data accesses, including interrupt vector
		fetches and chip configuration byte reads. INST is low during internal memory
		fetches.
		INST is multiplexed with P5.1 and SLPCS#.
INTOUT#	O	Interrupt Output
		This active-low output indicates that a pending interrupt requires use of the
		external bus. How quickly the microcontroller asserts INTOUT# depends upon
		the status of HOLD# and HLDA# and whether the microcontroller is executing
		from internal or external program memory. If the microcontroller is executing
		from internal memory and receives an interrupt request while in hold, it asserts
		INTOUT# immediately. However, if the microcontroller is executing code from
		external memory and receives an interrupt request while in hold, it asserts
		BREQ# and waits until the external device deasserts HOLD# to assert
		INTOUT#. If the microcontroller is executing code from external memory and
		receives an interrupt request as it is going into hold (between the time that an
		external device asserts HOLD# and the time that the microcontroller responds
		with HLDA#), the microcontroller asserts both HLDA# and INTOUT# and keeps
		them asserted until the external device deasserts HOLD#.
		INTOUT is multiplexed with P2.4 and AINC#.
NMI	I	Nonmaskable Interrupt
		In normal operating mode, a rising edge on NMI generates a nonmaskable
		interrupt. NMI has the highest priority of all prioritized interrupts. Assert NMI for
		greater than one state time to guarantee that it is recognized.
ONCE#	I	On-circuit Emulation
		Holding ONCE# low during the rising edge of RESET# places the device into
		on-circuit emulation (ONCE) mode. This mode puts all pins into a high-
		impedance state, thereby isolating the device from other components in the
		system. The value of ONCE# is latched when the RESET# pin goes inactive.
		While the device is in ONCE mode, you can debug the system using a clip-on
		emulator. To exit ONCE mode, reset the device by pulling the RESET# signal
		low. To prevent inadvertent entry into ONCE mode, either configure this pin as
		an output or hold it high during reset and ensure that your system meets the VIH
		specification (see datasheet).
		ONCE# is multiplexed with P2.6.
