Pin # Signal Description (P1 Row B)
49 (B17) DACK1* DMA Acknowledge 1 – Used by DMA controller to select the I/O
resource requesting the bus, or to request ownership of the bus as a bus
master device. Can also be used by the ISA bus master to gain control of
the bus from the DMA controller.
50 (B18) DRQ1
DMA Request 1 – Used by I/O resources to request DMA service. Must
be held high until associated DACK1 line is active.
51 (B19) Refresh* Memory Refresh – This signal is driven low to indicate a memory refresh
cycle is in progress. Memory is refreshed every 15.6 usec.
52 (B20) SysClk* System Clock – This is a free running clock typically in the 8 MHz to 10
MHz range, although its exact frequency is not guaranteed.
53 (B21) IRQ7 Interrupt Request 7 – Asserted by a device when it has pending interrupt
request. Only one device may use the request line at a time.
54 (B22) IRQ6
Interrupt Request 6 – Asserted by a device when it has pending interrupt
request. Only one device may use the request line at a time.
55 (B23) IRQ5 Interrupt Request 5 – Asserted by a device when it has pending interrupt
request. Only one device may use the request line at a time.
56 (B24) IRQ4 Interrupt Request 4 – Asserted by a device when it has pending interrupt
request. Only one device may use the request line at a time.
57 (B25) IRQ3
Interrupt Request 3 – Asserted by a device when it has pending interrupt
request. Only one device may use the request line at a time.
58 (B26) DACK2* DMA Acknowledge 2 – Used by DMA controller to select the I/O
resource requesting the bus, or to request ownership of the bus as a bus
master device. Can also be used by the ISA bus master to gain control of
the bus from the DMA controller.
59 (B27) TC
Terminal Count – This signal is a pulse to indicate a terminal count has
been reached on a DMA channel operation.
60 (B28) BALE Buffered Address Latch Enable – This signal is used to latch the LA23 to
LA17 signals or decodes of these signals. Addresses are latched on the
falling edge of BALE. It is forced high during DMA cycles. When used
with AENx, it indicates a valid processor or DMA address.
61 (B29) +5V +5V power ±5%
62 (B30) OSC Oscillator – This clock signal operates at 14.3 MHz. This signal is not
synchronous with the system clock (SYSCLK).
63 (B31) GND Ground
64 (B32) GND Ground
Notes: The shaded area denotes power or ground. The signals marked with * indicate active low.

Pin # Signal Description (P1 Row C)
1 (C0) GND Ground
2 (C1) SBHE*
System Byte High Enable – This signal is driven low to indicate a transfer
of data on the high half of the data bus (D15 to D8).
3 (C2) LA23 Latchable Address 23 – This signal must be latched by the resource if the
line is required for the entire data cycle.
4 (C3) LA22 Latchable Address 22 – Refer to LA23, pin C2, for more information.
5 (C4) LA21 Latchable Address 21 – Refer to LA23, pin C2, for more information.
