Multiplexed Pins
In the table “Signal Functional Description” on page 34, each external signal is listed along with a description
of the signal function. Some signals are multiplexed on the same pin (ball) so that the pin can be used for
different functions. Multiplexed signals are shown as a default signal with a secondary signal in square
brackets (for example, GPIO1[TS1E]). Active-low signals (for example, RAS) are marked with an overline.
It is expected that in any single application a particular pin will always be programmed to serve the same
function. The flexibility of multiplexing allows a single chip to offer a richer pin selection than would otherwise
be possible.
In addition to multiplexing, many pins are also multi-purpose. For example, the EBC peripheral controller
address pins are used as outputs by the PPC405GP to broadcast an address to external slave devices when
the PPC405GP has control of the external bus. When, during the course of normal chip operation, an external
master gains ownership of the external bus, these same pins are used as inputs which are driven by the
external master and received by the EBC in the PPC405GP. In this example, the pins are also bidirectional,
serving as both inputs and outputs.
Intialization Strapping
One group of pins is used as strapped inputs during system reset. These pins function as strapped inputs
only during reset and are used for other functions during normal operation (see “Strapping” on page 56). Note
