A(0:1) /
Address Bus
An active HIGH output BUS from the PIC. Contains the address of the
currentbuscycleaslatchedbytheendofSTRBA. Insystemconfigurations
including the MMU function, the only active lines during memory cycles
are A(4:15). In this example, A(2:3) are high impedance (don't care) and
A(0:1) turn into inputs called Extended Addresses, EXT AD (0:1). In this

Extended Address
Bus
A bi-directionaly active HIGH BUS. In CPU cycles, it is an output BUS
that is used to select one of 256 pages, 4K words each, expanding the
direct addressing space to 1M word. In DMA cycles, indicated by DMA-
ACK being active, it is also an output BUS except when programmed for
the physical demultiplexed DMA mode. In this example, it becomes an
