3.7Performing a Multiplexed Access Without HAS

The HAS signal is not required when the host processor has dedicated signals (address lines or bit I/O) capable of driving the control lines. Dedicated pins can be directly connected to HCNTL[1:0], HR/W, and

HHWIL.

Figure 3 and Figure 5 show examples of signal connections when HAS is not used for multiplexed transfers. When HAS is not used, it must be tied high (inactive). Figure 9 and Figure 10 show typical HPI signal activity when HAS is tied high. The falling edge of internal HSTRB latches the HCNTL[1:0], HR/W, and HHWIL states into the HPI. Internal HSTRB is derived from HCS, HDS1, and HDS2, as described in Section 3.3.
