Note 6: 
When addressing external memory. This specification applies to the first clock cycle following the transition. On subsequent 
cycles following 1 to 0 transitions, the typical current sink capability of Port 0 and Port 2 is approximately 150A, and the 
minimum current sink capability of ALE and PSEN is approximately 400A. On subsequent cycles following 0 to 1 
transitions, the typical current drive capability of Port 0 and Port 2 is approximately 110A. 
Note 7: 
RST = V
CC
. This condition mimics operation of pins in I/O mode. 
Note 8: 
During a 0 to 1 transition, a one-shot drives the ports hard for two clock cycles. This measurement reflects port in transition 
mode. 
Note 9: 
Current required from external circuit to hold a logic-low level on an I/O pin while the corresponding port latch bit is set to 1. 
This is only the current required to hold the low level; transitions from 1 to 0 on an I/O pin must also overcome the transition 
current. 
Note 10: 
Ports 1 and 3 source transition current when being pulled down externally. The current reaches its maximum at approximately 
2V. 
Note 11: 
0.45 < V
IN
 <V
CC
. Not a high-impedance input. This port is a weak address holding latch because Port 0 is dedicated as an 
address bus on the DS80C310. Peak current occurs near the input transition point of the latch, approximately 2V.
