D0-D7

I/O

DATA BUS: The Data Bus lines are bidirectional three-state pins connected to the system data bus.

RESET

I

RESET: A high on this input clears the control register and all ports (A, B, C) are set to the input mode.

CS

I

CHIP SELECT: Chip select is an active low input used to enable the 82C55A onto the Data Bus for CPU

communications.

RD

I

READ: Read is an active low input control signal used by the CPU to read status information or data via the data bus.

WR

I

WRITE: Write is an active low input control signal used by the CPU to load control words and data into the 82C55A.

A0-A1

I

ADDRESS: These input signals, in conjunction with the RD and WR inputs, control the selection of one of the three

ports or the control word register. A0 and A1 are normally connected to the least significant bits of the Address Bus

A0, A1.
