EEDET
EEPROM Detect. This bit indi-
cates the sampled value of the
EESK/LED1 pin at the end of
H_RESET. This value indicates
whether or not an EEPROM is
present at the EEPROM inter-
face. If this bit is a 1, it indicates
that an EEPROM is present. If
this bit is a 0, it indicates that an
EEPROM is not present.
operation. For example, if the
aborted PREAD operation imme-
diately followed the H_RESET
operation, then the final state of
the EEPROM programmable lo-
cations will be equal to the
H_RESET
those locations.
If a PREAD command is given to
the Am79C978 controller and the
auto-detection pin (EESK/LED1)
indicates that no EEPROM is
present, then the EEPROM read
operation will still be attempted.
Note that at the end of the
H_RESET operation, a read of
the EEPROM will be performed
automatically. This H_RESET-
generated EEPROM read func-
tion will not proceed if the auto-
detection pin (EESK/LED1) indi-
cates
present.
This bit is read accessible al-
ways; write accessible only when
either the STOP or the SPND bit
is set. PREAD is set to 0 during
H_RESET and is unaffected by
S_RESET or the STOP bit.
This bit is read accessible only.
EEDET is read only; write opera-
tions have no effect. The value of
this bit is determined at the end of
the H_RESET operation. It is un-
affected by S_RESET or the
STOP bit.
Table 38 indicates the possible
combinations of EEDET and the
existence of an EEPROM and the
resulting operations that are pos-
sible on the EEPROM interface.

EEPROM Port Enable. When this
bit is set to a 1, it causes the val-
ues of ECS, ESK, and EDI to be
driven onto the EECS, EESK,
and EEDI pins, respectively. If
EEN = 0 and no EEPROM read
function is currently active, then
EECS will be driven LOW. When
EEN = 0 and no EEPROM read
function is currently active, EESK
and EEDI pins will be driven by
the LED registers BCR5 and
BCR4, respectively. See Table
39.
This bit is read accessible al-
ways, write accessible only when
either the STOP or the SPND bit
is set. EEN is set to 0 by
H_RESET and is unaffected by
the S_RESET or STOP bit.
Reserved location. Written as
zero and read as undefined.
EEPROM Chip Select. This bit is
used to control the value of the
EECS pin of the interface when
the EEN bit is set to 1 and the
PREAD bit is set to 0. If EEN = 1
and PREAD = 0 and ECS is set to
a 1, then the EECS pin will be
forced to a HIGH level at the ris-
ing edge of the next clock follow-
ing bit programming.
If EEN = 1 and PREAD = 0 and
ECS is set to a 0, then the EECS
pin will be forced to a LOW level
at the rising edge of the next
clock following bit programming.
ECS has no effect on the output
value of the EECS pin unless the
PREAD bit is set to 0 and the
EEN bit is set to 1.
This bit is read accessible al-
ways, write accessible only when
either the STOP or the SPND bit
is set. ECS is set to 0 by
H_RESET and is not affected by
S_RESET or STOP.
