10.2 Standard NOR-Like Interface
Mobile DiskOnChip G3 uses a NOR-like interface that can easily be connected to any
microprocessor bus. With a standard interface, it requires 13 address lines, 8 data lines and basic
memory control signals (CE#, OE#, WE#), as shown in Figure 22 below. Typically, Mobile
DiskOnChip G3 can be mapped to any free 8KB memory space. In a PC-compatible platform, it is
usually mapped into the BIOS expansion area. If the allocated memory window is larger than 8KB,
an automatic anti-aliasing mechanism prevents the firmware from being loaded more than once
during the ROM expansion search.
Notes: 1. The 0.1 µF and the 10 nF low-inductance high-frequency capacitors must be attached to
67
(*) Address A0 is multiplexed with the DPD signal.
2. Mobile DiskOnChip G3 is an edge-sensitive device. CE#, OE# and WE# should be
each of the device’s VCC and VSS pins/balls. These capacitors must be placed as close
as possible to the package leads.
properly terminated (according to board layout, serial parallel or both terminations) to
avoid signal ringing.
