Parallel Port Anomalies

General

The ÉlanSC310 microcontroller parallel port can be

physically mapped to three different I/O locations or

can be completely disabled. These I/O locations are

3B(x)h, 37(x)h, and 27(x)h. Typically the system BIOS

or a software driver sets up the port at system boot

time. Generally, LPT1 is set up by software to be asso-

ciated with IRQ7, and LPT2 (and LPT3 if desired) is set

up to be associated with IRQ5. In the ÉlanSC310 mi-

crocontroller, the parallel port is always associated with

IRQ7. This cannot be changed regardless of the I/O lo-

cation to which the parallel port is mapped.

Local Bus or Maximum ISA Configuration

The Parallel Port Address Select Register, Port 3D4h,

Index 20h, controls the parallel port mapping. If the Bus

Mode Initialization Register, port 3D4h, Index 19h, has

been configured to its mandatory bit settings prior to

configuring the Parallel Port Address Select Register,

the parallel port cannot be remapped. This can cause

the system boot sequence to require modification such

that the parallel port is set up prior to Port 3D4h, Index

19h being configured. For more details about this

anomaly, see chapters 3 and 4 of the

ÉlanTMSC310

Programmer’s Reference Manual, order #20665.

PC/AT Support Features

The ÉlanSC310 microcontroller provides all of the sup-

port functions found in the original PC/AT. These in-

clude the Port B status and control bits, speaker

control, extensions for fast reset, and A20 gate control.

(Fast CPU reset and fast A20 gate functions are con-

trolled by either the Miscellaneous 1 Register, Index

6Fh, or port 92h). For more information, see Chapter 3

of the

ÉlanTMSC310 Microcontroller Programmer’s

Reference Manual, order #20665.

The ÉlanSC310 microcontroller also includes support

for port B, and a miscellaneous PC/AT register that al-

lows direct programming of the speaker via the SPK

line. In addition, the ÉlanSC310 microcontroller also

generates a chip select and clock source for an exter-

nal, standard 8042 keyboard controller or the PC/XT

keyboard feature.

Note: For more information about the PC/AT and PC/

XT keyboard interface, see Appendix B of the

ÉlanTMSC310 Microcontroller Programmer’s Refer-

ence Manual, order #20665.

Port B and NMI Control

Port B is a PC/AT-standard miscellaneous feature con-

trol register that is located at I/O address 061h. The

lower 4 bits of the 8-bit register are read/write control

bits that enable or disable NMI check condition sources

and sound generation features. The top, or most signif-

icant 4 bits are read/write bits that return status and di-

agnostic information and control the PC/XT keyboard

interface.

There is a master NMI enable function provided that

can inhibit any NMIs from reaching the CPU regardless

of the state of the individual source enables. This mas-

ter NMI control is located as a single bit (7) of the reg-

373 Octal D Transparent Latch
