Bi-directional, tristate, buffered data lines. Connected to data


D0-D7
bus directly or through buffers
RD-bar Active low read control
WR-bar Active low write control
A0 Address input line, used to select control register
CS-bar Active low chip select
Bi-directional, 3-bit cascade lines. In master mode, PIC places
slave ID no. on these lines. In slave mode, the PIC reads slave ID
CAS0-2
no. from master on these lines. It may be regarded as slave-
select.
SP-bar Slave program / enable. In non-buffered mode, it is SP-bar
/ EN- input, used to distinguish master/slave PIC. In buffered mode, it
bar is output line used to enable buffers
