FRZ0—Freeze Bus Monitor Enable

1 = When FREEZE is asserted, the bus monitor is disabled.

0 = When FREEZE is asserted, the bus monitor continues to operate as programmed.

FIRQ—Full Interrupt Request Mode

1 = Configures port B for seven interrupt request lines, autovector, and no external chip selects.

0 = Configures port B for four interrupt request lines and four external chip selects. See Table 4-5 for pin function selection.

SHEN1, SHEN0—Show Cycle Enable

These two control bits determine what the EBI does with the external bus during internal transfer operations (see Table 4-6). A show cycle allows internal transfers to be externally monitored. The address, data, and control signals (except for AS) are driven externally. DS is used to signal address strobe timing for show cycles. Data is valid on the next falling clock edge after DS is negated. However, data is not driven externally, and AS and DS are not asserted externally for internal accesses unless show cycles are enabled.

If external bus arbitration is disabled, the EBI will not recognize an external bus request until arbitration is enabled again. To prevent bus conflicts, external peripherals must not attempt to initiate cycles during show cycles with arbitration disabled.

SUPV—Supervisor/User Data Space

The SUPV bit defines the SIM40 registers as either supervisor data space or user (unrestricted) data space.

1 = The SIM40 registers defined as supervisor/user are restricted to supervisor data access (FC3–FC0 = $5). An attempted user-space write is ignored and returns BERR.

0 = The SIM40 registers defined as supervisor/user data are unrestricted (FC2 is a don't care).

IARB3–IARB0—Interrupt Arbitration Bits 3–0

These bits are used to arbitrate for the bus in the case that two or more modules simultaneously generate an interrupt at the same priority level. No two modules can share the same IARB value. The reset value of IARB is $F, allowing the SIM40 to arbitrate during an IACK cycle immediately after reset. The system software should initialize the IARB field to a value from $F (highest priority) to $1 (lowest priority). A

MC68340 specifications

The Motorola MC68340 is a highly integrated microprocessor that was introduced in the early 1990s. It belongs to the 68000 family of microprocessors and is designed to cater to the demands of embedded systems, particularly in telecommunications and networking applications. This chip represents a significant evolution in microprocessor technology by combining a microprocessor core with additional peripherals on a single chip, making it an attractive solution for engineers looking to design compact and efficient systems.

One of the key features of the MC68340 is its 32-bit architecture, which allows for significant processing power and data handling capabilities. This architecture enables the processor to handle larger data sizes and perform more complex calculations compared to its 16-bit predecessors. The MC68340 operates at clock speeds typically ranging from 16 MHz to 25 MHz. Its dual instruction pipeline enhances throughput, allowing for simultaneous instruction fetches and executions, which significantly boosts performance.

A notable characteristic of the MC68340 is the inclusion of integrated peripherals, which help reduce the overall component count in a system. Key integrated components include a memory management unit (MMU), a direct memory access (DMA) controller, and various communication interfaces such as serial ports. The memory management capabilities enhance the processor's ability to manage memory resources efficiently, enabling it to support multitasking environments commonly found in modern computing.

In terms of connectivity, the MC68340 features connections for both synchronous and asynchronous serial communication, making it well-suited for networking tasks. The processor supports a range of bus standards, including address and data buses, which facilitate seamless interaction with peripheral devices.

Another important aspect of the MC68340 is its flexibility. The processor supports multiple operating modes, including multiple CPU configurations and compatibility with the Motorola 68000 family, allowing for easier integration into existing systems.

Moreover, the MC68340 boasts low power consumption compared to many of its contemporaries, making it an excellent choice for battery-operated applications, enhancing its appeal in sectors like telecommunications, industrial control, and automotive systems. Its combination of performance, integration, versatility, and efficiency has secured the MC68340 a reputable position in the annals of embedded systems technology, proving to be a valuable asset for developers and engineers alike.
