3.2.3 LED Display (PHY) Pins
The LED pins use standard logic drivers. They output a logic low when the LED is meant to be on and
are tri-state when it is meant to be off. The LED cathode should be connected to the output pin and a
series resistor from the power supply connected to the LED anode.

O
O
EEPROM Chip Select
Used to frame transmissions to and from an external
EEPROM.
PROM_CLK
EEPROM Clock
Clock for transmitting to and from an external EEPROM/ROM.
This is compatible with the slowest commercial parts, which
specify a maximum frequency of 1 MHz.
PROM_DI

I
EEPROM Data In
Data line for transmitting from the external EEPROM to the
controller. Must be high with no EEPROM present.
PROM_DO
OZ
EEPROM Data Out
Transfers data from the controller to an external
EEPROM/ROM.
