Output Control Signal Definition

OBF (Output Buffer Full F/F). The OBF output will go "low" to Indicate that the CPU has written data out to the specified port. The OBF F/F will be set by the rising edge of the WR Input and reset by ACK Input being low.

ACK (Acknowledge Input). A "low" on this Input informs the 8255A that the data from port A or port B has been ac· cepted. In essence, a response from the peripheral device indicating that it has received the data output by the CPU.

INTR (Interrupt Reque,t). A "high" on this output can be used to interrupt the CPU when an output device has ac- cepted data transmitted by the CPU. INTR is set when ACK is a "one", OBF IS a "one" and INTE is a "one". It is reset by the falling edge of WR.

INTEA

Controlled by bit set/reset of PC6.

INTE B

Controlled by bit set/reset of PC2.
