Introduction
Input and Output Buffers (I/O buffers)
Each signal in the switch matrix is connected to a program-
mable I/O buffer, which is independently configured
through either the RapidConfigure or JTAG Interface. The
I/O buffer attributes include its signal direction (input, out-
put or bi-directional) and data flow mode (flow-through or
registered). The signal can also be inverted at the output.

I/O Port Function Mode
The following legend describes the various modes of the
Input or Output Ports and the specification used by the
Fairchild Development System Software for bitstream gen-
eration.

array side for each I/O Port and control pin is used to pull
unused or non-driven circuits to a stable HIGH level. Figure
3 shows a basic block diagram of an I/O buffer with the
sources for the three control signals (IE, OE and CLK). For
any given port number, these three control signals can be
selected from one of two sources. The control signals are
explained in more detail in the following section.
Next-Neighbor Clocking
Included among the clocking options in MSX532 is the abil-
ity to use an adjacent port as a clock source. This is
referred to as a Next-Neighbor Clock. In the MSX532, Port
0 can be clocked by Port 1, which can be clocked by Port 2,
which can be clocked by Port 3, etc. In turn, Port 531 can
be clocked by Port 0. Since each I/O buffer can be pro-
grammed as an input or an output (among other options)
there are four ways to utilize the next neighbor clock
option.
