Section 6 Bus Controller (BSC) 
This LSI has an on-chip bus controller (BSC) that manages the external address space divided into 
eight areas. 
The bus controller also has a bus arbitration function, and controls the operation of the bus 
mastership⎯the CPU, DMA controller (DMAC), EXDMA controller (EXDMAC)*, and data 
transfer controller (DTC). A block diagram of the bus controller is shown in figure 6.1. 
Note:  *  Not supported by the H8S/2424 Group. 
6.1  Features 
•  Manages external address space in area units 
Manages the external address space divided into eight areas of 2 Mbytes 
Bus specifications can be set independently for each area 
Burst ROM, DRAM*
1
, synchronous DRAM*
2
, and address/data multiplexed I/O interfaces can 
be set 
•  Basic bus interface 
Chip select signals (CS0 to CS7) can be output for areas 0 to 7 
8-bit access or 16-bit access can be selected for each area 
2-state access or 3-state access can be selected for each area 
Program wait cycles can be inserted for each area 
Extension cycles can be inserted while CS is asserted for each area 
Wait cycles can be inserted by the WAIT pin 
The negation timing of the read strobe signal (RD) can be modified 
•  Burst ROM interface 
Burst ROM interface can be set independently for areas 0 and 1 
•  Address/data multiplexed I/O interface 
Address/data multiplexed I/O interface can be set for areas 6 and 7 
•  DRAM interface*
1
DRAM interface can be set for areas 2 to 5 
•  Synchronous DRAM interface*
2
Continuous synchronous DRAM space can be set for areas 2 to 5
