8086
Table 1. Pin Description
The following pin function descriptions are for 8086 systems in either minimum or maximum mode. The ‘‘Local
Bus’’ in these descriptions is the direct multiplexed bus interface connection to the 8086 (without regard to
additional bus buffers).

2– 16, 39 I/O ADDRESS DATA BUS: These lines constitute the time multiplexed
memory/IO address (T
1
), and data (T
2
,T

,T
W
,T
4
) bus. A
0
is
analogous to BHE
for the lower byte of the data bus, pins D

–D
0
.Itis
LOW during T
1
when a byte is to be transferred on the lower portion
of the bus in memory or I/O operations. Eight-bit oriented devices tied
to the lower half would normally use A
0
to condition chip select
functions. (See BHE.) These lines are active HIGH and float to 3-state
OFF during interrupt acknowledge and local bus ‘‘hold acknowledge’’.

, 35–38 O ADDRESS/STATUS: During T
1
these are the four most significant
address lines for memory operations. During I/O operations these
A

,
lines are LOW. During memory and I/O operations, status information
A

is available on these lines during T

) is updated at the beginning of each
CLK cycle. A

and A

are encoded as shown.
This information indicates which relocation register is presently being
used for data accessing.
These lines float to 3-state OFF during local bus ‘‘hold acknowledge.’’

the bus high enable signal
(BHE
) should be used to enable data onto the most significant half of
the data bus, pins D

–D
8
. Eight-bit oriented devices tied to the upper
half of the bus would normally use BHE to condition chip select
functions. BHE
is LOW during T
1
for read, write, and interrupt
acknowledge cycles when a byte is to be transferred on the high
portion of the bus. The S
7
status information is available during T
2
,
T
3
, and T
4
. The signal is active LOW, and floats to 3-state OFF in
‘‘hold’’. It is LOW during T
1
for the first interrupt acknowledge cycle.

RD 32 O READ: Read strobe indicates that the processor is performing a
memory or I/O read cycle, depending on the state of the S
2
pin. This
signal is used to read devices which reside on the 8086 local bus. RD
is active LOW during T
2
,T
3
and T
W
of any read cycle, and is
guaranteed to remain HIGH in T
2
until the 8086 local bus has floated.
This signal floats to 3-state OFF in ‘‘hold acknowledge’’.
