Description

 

 

 

 

10

ACK_L

Acknowledge

Driven low by the peripheral

 

 

Low

device to acknowledge data byte

 

 

 

transfer from host during forward

 

 

 

channel transfer. Qualifies data

 

 

 

being transferred to host in reverse

 

 

 

channel transfer.

11

BUSY

Busy

Driven high to indicate the

 

 

 

peripheral device is not ready to

 

 

 

receive data during forward

 

 

 

channel transfer. Used to send

 

 

 

Data3 and Data7 during reverse

 

 

 

channel transfer.

12

PERROR

Parity Error

Driven high by peripheral device to

 

 

 

indicate an error in the paper path

 

 

 

during forward channel transfer.

 

 

 

Used to send Data2 and Data6

 

 

 

during reverse channel transfer.

13

SELECT_L

Select Low

Indicates the peripheral device is

 

 

 

on-line during forward channel

 

 

 

transfer. Used to send Data1 and

 

 

 

Data5 during reverse channel

 

 

 

transfer.

14

AFXN_L

Auto Feed Low

Set low by the host to drive the

 

 

 

peripheral into auto-line feed mode

 

 

 

during forward channel transfer.

 

 

 

During reverse channel transfer, set

 

 

 

low to indicate host can receive

 

 

 

peripheral device data and then set

 

 

 

high to acknowledge receipt of

 

 

 

peripheral data.

15

ERROR_L

Error Low

Set low by the peripheral device to

 

 

 

indicate an error during forward

 

 

 

channel transfer. In reverse channel

 

 

 

transfer, set low to indicate

 

 

 

peripheral device has data ready to

 

 

 

send to the host. Used to send

 

 

 

Data0 and Data4.

16
