The control bits for the External Memory Interface are located in two registers, the Exter-
nal Memory Control Register A – XMCRA, and the External Memory Control Register B
– XMCRB.
When the XMEM interface is enabled, the XMEM interface will override the setting in the
data direction registers that corresponds to the ports dedicated to the XMEM interface.
For details about the port override, see the alternate functions in section “I/O-Ports” on
page 62. The XMEM interface will auto-detect whether an access is internal or external.
If the access is external, the XMEM interface will output address, data, and the control
signals on the ports according to Figure 14 (this figure shows the wave forms without
wait-states). When ALE goes from high-to-low, there is a valid address on AD7:0. ALE is
low during a data transfer. When the XMEM interface is enabled, also an internal access
will cause activity on address, data and ALE ports, but the RD and WR strobes will not
toggle during internal access. When the External Memory Interface is disabled, the nor-
mal pin and data direction settings are used. Note that when the XMEM interface is
disabled, the address space above the internal SRAM boundary is not mapped into the
internal SRAM. Figure 13 illustrates how to connect an external SRAM to the AVR using
an octal latch (typically “74 x 573” or equivalent) which is transparent when G is high.
AD7:0: Multiplexed low-order address bus and data bus.
A15:8: High-order address bus (configurable number of bits).
ALE: Address latch enable.
RD: Read strobe.
WR: Write strobe.
