Table 7. PAGE MODE SELECT
The first page mode (page mode 1) external bus structure uses P2 as the primary address bus,
(multiplexing both the most significant byte (MSB) and least significant byte (LSB) of the address for
each external memory cycle) and P0 is used as the primary data bus. During external code fetches, P0 is
held in a high- impedance state by the processor. Op codes are driven by the external memory onto P0 and
latched at the end of the external fetch cycle at the rising edge of PSEN . During external data read/write
operations, P0 functions as the data I/O bus. It is held in a high- impedance state for external reads from
data memory, and driven with data during external writes to data memory.
During a page hit, P2 drives Addr0–7 of the 16-bit address while the most significant address byte is held
in the external address latches. PSEN , RD , and WR strobe accordingly for the appropriate operation on
the P0 data bus. There is no ALE assertion for page hits.
During a page miss, P2 drives the Addr [8:15] of the 16-bit address and holds it for the duration of the
first half of the memory cycle to allow the external address latches to latch the new most significant
address byte. ALE is asserted to strobe the external address latches. During this operation, PSEN , RD ,
and WR are all held in inactive states and P0 is in a high- impedance state. The second half of the
memory cycle is executed as a page- hit cycle and the appropriate operation takes place.
PAGES1:PAGES0
§ A page miss occurs when the MSB of the subsequent address is different from the last address.
§ A page hit occurs when the MSB of the subsequent address does not change from the last address.
The external memory machine cycle can be 2, 4, or 8 system clocks in length for a page miss.
The external memory machine cycle can be 1, 2, or 4 system clocks in length for a page hit.

P0: Lower address byte.
P2: The upper address byte is multiplexed
with the data byte.
Note: This setting affects external code
fetches only; accessing the external data
memory requires 4 clock cycles, regardless
of page hit or miss.
