Shared Pin Operation -
Input/Output Pins
Figure 1 shows a means of implementing this function
when a switch or 2 pin header is used. With no jumper is
installed the pin will be pulled high. With the jumper in
place the pin will be pulled low. If programmability is not
necessary, than only a single resistor is necessary. The
programming resistors should be located close to the series
termination resistor to minimize the current loop area. It is
more important to locate the series termination resistor
close to the driver than the programming resistor.
The I/O pins designated by (input/output) serve as dual
signal functions to the device. During initial power-up, they
act as input pins. The logic level (voltage) that is present on
these pins at this time is read and stored into a 5-bit internal
data latch. At the end of Power-On reset, (see AC
characteristics for timing values), the device changes the
mode of operations for these pins to an output function. In
this mode the pins produce the specified buffered clocks to
external loads.
To program (load) the internal configuration register for these
pins, a resistor is connected to either the VDD (logic 1) power
supplyortheGND(logic0)voltagepotential. A10Kilohm(10K)
resistor is used to provide both the solid CMOS programming
voltageneededduringthepower-upprogrammingperiodandto
provide an insignificant load on the output clock during the
subsequent operating period.
