HOST PROCESSOR INTERFACE

The address map, shown below in Table 1, shows

the addresses of the different blocks of the

FDC37C78 immediately after power up. Some

addresses are used to access more than one

register.

The host processor communicates with the

FDC37C78 through a series of read/write

registers. The port addresses for these registers

are shown in Table 1. Register access is

accomplished through programmed I/O or DMA

transfers. All registers are 8 bits wide.
