Parallel Host Interface (Parallel Interface Only)
When the HWT input signal is connected to the host bus write line, the parallel interface is
selected upon reset. (See Section 7.3, Interface Timing and Waveforms for waveform and
timing information.)
The parallel interface emulates a 16C450 UART; (See Table 2-1, Parallel Interface
Registers). Parallel interface operation is equivalent to 16C450 operation with CS0 and CS1
inputs high and DISTR, DOSTR, and ADS inputs low. The corresponding RC224ATLV and
16C450 signals are shown below. 16C450 signals that are not required for RC224ATLV host
computer operation are not shown.

Host Bus Address Lines 0-2. During a host read or write operation, signals HA0–HA2 select
an internal register. The state of the divisor latch access bit (DLAB) affects the selection of
certain registers.
Host Bus Data Lines 0-7. HD0-HD7 are comprised of eight tri-state I/O lines providing
bidirectional communication between the host and the modem. Data, control words, and
status information are transferred through HD0-HD7.

Host Bus Chip Select. HCS input low enables reading from or writing to the modem using the
parallel bus.
Host Bus Read. HRD is an active low read control input. When the modem is selected with
HCS, HRD low allows status or data words to be read from an addressed register.
Host Bus Write. HWT is an active low write control input. When the modem is selected with
HCS, HWT low allows data or control words to be written to an addressed register.
