State 0—The read cycle starts in state 0 (S0). During S0, the MC68340 places a valid address on A31–A0 and valid function codes on FC3–FC0. The function codes select the address space for the cycle. The MC68340 drives R/W high for a read cycle. SIZ1/SIZ0 become valid, indicating the number of bytes requested for transfer.

State 1—One-half clock later, in state 1 (S1), the MC68340 asserts AS indicating a valid address on the address bus. The MC68340 also asserts DS during S1. The selected device uses R/W, SIZ1 or SIZ0, A0, and DS to place its information on the data bus. One or both of the bytes (D15–D8 and D7–D0) are selected by SIZ1/SIZ0 and A0.

State 2—As long as at least one of the DSACKsignals is recognized on the falling edge of S2 (meeting the asynchronous input setup time requirement), data is latched on the falling edge of S4, and the cycle terminates.

State 3—If DSACKis not recognized by the start of state 3 (S3), the MC68340 inserts wait states instead of proceeding to states 4 and 5. To ensure that wait states are inserted, both DSACK1 and DSACK0 must remain negated throughout the asynchronous input setup and hold times around the end of S2. If wait states are added, the MC68340 continues to sample DSACKon the falling edges of the clock until one is recognized.

State 4—At the falling edge of state 4 (S4), the MC68340 latches the incoming data and samples DSACKto get the port size.

State 5—The MC68340 negates AS and DS during state 5 (S5). It holds the address valid during S5 to provide address hold time for memory systems. R/W, SIZ1 and SIZ0, and FC3–FC0 also remain valid throughout S5. The external device keeps its data and DSACKsignals asserted until it detects the negation of AS or DS (whichever it detects first). The device must remove its data and negate DSACKwithin approximately one clock period after sensing the negation of AS or DS. DSACKsignals that remain asserted beyond this limit may be prematurely detected for the next bus cycle.

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.
