The Harris 82C55A is a high performance CMOS version of
the industry standard 8255A and is manufactured using a
self-aligned silicon gate CMOS process (Scaled SAJI IV). It
is a general purpose programmable I/O device which may be
used with many different microprocessors. There are 24 I/O
pins which may be individually programmed in 2 groups of
12 and used in 3 major modes of operation. The high
performance and industry standard configuration of the
82C55A make it compatible with the 80C86, 80C88 and
other microprocessors.
Static CMOS circuit design insures low operating power. TTL
compatibility over the full military temperature range and bus
hold circuitry eliminate the need for pull-up resistors. The
Harris advanced SAJI process results in performance equal
to or greater than existing functionally equivalent products at
a fraction of the power.

Functional Description
Data Bus Buffer
This three-state bi-directional 8-bit buffer is used to interface
the 82C55A to the system data bus. Data is transmitted or
received by the buffer upon execution of input or output
instructions by the CPU. Control words and status information are also transferred through the data bus buffer.
Read/Write and Control Logic
The function of this block is to manage all of the internal and
external transfers of both Data and Control or Status words.
It accepts inputs from the CPU Address and Control busses
and in turn, issues commands to both of theControl Groups.
(CS) Chip Select. A “low” on this input pin enables the
communcation between the 82C55A and the CPU.
(RD) Read. A “low” on this input pin enables 82C55A to send
the data or status information to the CPU on the data bus. In
essence, it allows the CPU to “read from” the 82C55A.
(WR) Write. A “low” on this input pin enables the CPU to
write data or control words into the 82C55A.
(A0 and A1) Port Select 0 and Port Select 1. These input
signals, in conjunction with the RD and WR inputs, control
the selection of one of the three ports or the control word
register. They are normally connected to the least significant
bits of the address bus (A0 and A1).

(RESET) Reset. A “high” on this input initializes the control
register to 9Bh and all ports (A, B, C) are set to the input
mode. “Bus hold” devices internal to the 82C55A will hold
the I/O port inputs to a logic “1” state with a maximum hold
current of 400µA.
Group A and Group B Controls
The functional configuration of each port is programmed by
the systems software. In essence, the CPU “outputs” a control word to the 82C55A. The control word contains
information such as “mode”, “bitset”, “bit reset”,etc., that initializes the functional configuration of the 82C55A.
Each of the Control blocks (Group A and Group B) accepts
“commands” from the Read/Write Control logic, receives
“control words” from the internal data bus and issues the
proper commands to its associated ports.
Control Group A - Port A and Port C upper (C7 - C4)
Control Group B - Port B and Port C lower (C3 - C0)
The control word register can be both written and read as
shown in the “Basic Operation” table. Figure 4 shows the
control word format for both Read and Write operations.
When the control word is read, bit D7 will always be a logic
“1”, as this implies control word mode information.

82C55A
Ports A, B, and C
The 82C55A contains three 8-bit ports (A, B, and C). All can
be configured to a wide variety of functional characteristics
by the system software but each has itsown special features
or “personality” to further enhance the power and flexibility of
the 82C55A.
Port A One 8-bit data output latch/buffer and one 8-bit data
input latch. Both “pull-up” and “pull-down” bus-hold devices
are present on Port A. See Figure 2A.
Port B One 8-bit data input/output latch/buffer and one 8-bit
data input buffer. See Figure 2B.
Port C One 8-bit data output latch/buffer and one 8-bit data
input buffer (no latch for input). This port can be divided into
two 4-bit ports under the mode control. Each 4-bit port contains a 4-bit latch and it can be used for the control signal
output and status signal inputs in conjunction with ports A
and B. See Figure 2B.

program, any of the other modes may be selected using a

service a variety of peripheraldevices with a simple software
maintenance routine. Any port programmed as an output
port is initialized to all zeros when thecontrol word iswritten.

Operational Description
Mode Selection
There are three basic modes of operation than can be
selected by the system software:
When the reset input goes “high”, all ports will be set to the
input mode with all 24 port lines held ata logic “one” level by
internal bus hold devices. After the reset is removed, the
82C55A can remain in the input mode with no additional initialization required. This eliminates the need to pullup or pulldown resistors in all-CMOS designs. The control word
The modes for Port A and Port B can be separately defined,
while Port C is divided into two portions as required by the
Port A and Port B definitions. All of the output registers,
including the status flip-flops, will be reset whenever the
mode is changed. Modes may be combined so that their
functional definition can be “tailored” to almost any I/O
structure. For instance: Group B can be programmed in
Mode 0 to monitor simple switch closings or display computational results, Group A could be programmed in Mode 1 to
monitor a keyboard or tape reader on an interrupt-driven
basis.
The mode definitions and possible mode combinations may
seem confusing at first, but after a cursory review of the
complete device operation a simple, logical I/O approach will
surface. The design of the 82C55A has taken into account
things such as efficient PC board layout, control signal definition vs. PC layout and complete functional flexibility to support almost any peripheral device with no external logic.
Such design represents the maximum use of the available
pins.
Single Bit Set/Reset Feature (Figure 5)
Any of the eight bits of Port C can be Set or Reset using a
single Output instruction. This feature reduces software
requirements in control-based applications.
When Port C is being used as status/control for Port A or B,
these bits can be set or reset by using the Bit Set/Reset
operation just as if they were output ports.

Interrupt Control Functions
When the 82C55A is programmed to operate in mode 1 or
mode 2, control signals are provided that can be used as
interrupt request inputs to the CPU. The interrupt request
signals, generated from port C, can be inhibited or enabled
by setting orresetting the associated INTE flip-flop, using the
bit set/reset function of port C.
This function allows the programmer to enable or disable a
CPU interrupt by a specific I/O device without affecting any
other device in the interrupt structure.
INTE Flip-Flop Definition
(BIT-SET)-INTE is SET - Interrupt Enable
(BIT-RESET)-INTE is Reset - Interrupt Disable
NOTE: All Mask flip-flops are automatically reset during mode selection and device Reset.
Operating Modes
Mode 0 (Basic Input/Output). This functional configuration
provides simple input and output operations for each of the
three ports. No handshaking is required, data is simply written to or read from a specific port.
Mode 0 Basic Functional Definitions:
• Two 8-bit ports and two 4-bit ports
• Any Port can be input or output
• Outputs are latched
• Input are not latched
• 16 different Input/Output configurations possible
Mode 1 - (Strobed Input/Output). This functional configura-
tion provides a means for transferring I/O data to or from a
specified port in conjunction with strobes or “hand shaking”
signals. In mode 1, port A and port B use the lines on port C
to generate or accept these “hand shaking” signals.
Mode 1 Basic Function Definitions:
• Two Groups (Group A and Group B)
• Each group contains one 8-bit port and one 4-bit
control/data port
• The 8-bit data port can be either input or output. Both
inputs and outputs are latched.
• The 4-bit port is used for control and status of the 8-bit
port.
