3 S1D13506 Host Bus Interface
The S1D13506 implements a 16-bit PC Card (PCMCIA) Host Bus Interface which is used
to interface to the PC Card bus.
The PC Card Host Bus Interface is selected by the S1D13506 on the rising edge of
RESET#. After releasing reset the bus interface signals assume their selected configuration.
For details on S1D13506 configuration, see Section 4.2, “S1D13506 Hardware Configu-
ration” on page 15.
Note
At reset, the Register/Memory Select bit in the Miscellaneous Register (REG[001h] bit
7) is set to 1. This means that only REG[000h] (read-only) and REG[001h] are
accessible until a write to REG[001h] sets bit 7 to 0 making all registers accessible.
When debugging a new hardware design, this can sometimes give the appearance that
the interface is not working, so it is important to remember to clear this bit before
proceeding with debugging.

The bus signal A0 is not used by the S1D13506 internally.

Although a clock is not directly supplied by the PC Card interface, one is required by
the S1D13506 PC Card Host Bus Interface. For an example of how this can be accom-
plished see the discussion on BUSCLK in Section 3.2, “PC Card Host Bus Interface
Signals” on page 12.
