Host Interface (HI)

2.6 HOST INTERFACE (HI)

The HI provides a fast parallel data to 8-bit port, which may be connected directly

to the host bus. The HI supports a variety of standard buses, and can be directly

connected to a number of industry standard microcomputers, microprocessors,

DSPs, and DMA hardware.

Signal Name Type State During
Reset Signal Description
H0–H7
PB0–PB7
Input/
Output Input Host Data Bus (H0–H7)—This data bus transfers data
between the host processor and the DSP56012.
When configured as a Host Interface port, the
H0–H7signals are tri-stated as long as HEN is
deasserted. The signals are inputs unless HR/W is high
and HEN is asserted, in which case H0–H7 become
outputs, allowing the host processor to read the
DSP56012 data. H0–H7 become outputs when HACK is
asserted during HOREQ assertion.
Port B GPIO 0–7 (PB0–PB7)—These signals are General
Purpose I/O signals (PB0–PB7) when the Host Interface is
not selected.
After reset, the default state for these signals is GPIO
input.
HOA0–HOA2
PB8–PB10
Input
Input/
Output
Input Host Address 0 – Host Address 2
(HOA0–HOA2)—These inputs provide the address
selection for each Host Interface register.
Port B GPIO 8–10 (PB8–PB10)—These signals are
General Purpose I/O signals (PB8–PB10) when the Host
Interface is not selected.
After reset, the default state for these signals is GPIO
input.
