Pinouts listed are from the 1400LT service manual; note that surving 1400FD documentation from radioshack.com has a number of differences:

  • ENABLE and TC are listed as active-high
  • AEN (pin 57, BEN) and IOREADY are listed as active-low
  • Pin 60 is listed as MOTOR-ON

However it should be noted that the information in the 1400LT table is more consistent with the ISA bus standard, and that the 1400FD document lists pin 17 as "47", suggesting data may be inaccurate perhaps due to OCR error(s).

Signal Descriptions

Signal Name I/O Description
ECLK 0 Clock: This is the system clock. It has 2 speed modes. (4.77MHz, 7.16MHz). The clock has a 50% duty cycle
/BRST 0 RESET: This is a the system reset. This signal is synchronized to the falling edge of clock and is active LOW
A0 - A19 0 Address Bits 0-19: These lines are generated by either the CPU (V20) or the DMA controller (82C37). They are active HIGH.
D0 - D7 0 Data Bits 0-7: These lines are active HIGH.
ALE 0 Address Latch Enable: This is provided by the Bus Controller (pPD71088). The CPU addresses are latched with the falling edge of ALE.
IOREDY 0 I/O Channel Ready: This line is pulled low by a memory or 1/0 device to lengthen 1/0 or memory cycle.
IRQ 2,3,5 I Interrupt Requests 2,3,5: These lines are used to signal the processor that an I/O device requires attention.
/EIR 0 I/O Read Strobe: This signal is active LOW.
/EIW 0 1/0 Write Strobe: This signal is active LOW.
/EMR 0 Memory Read Strobe: This signal is active LOW.
/EMW 0 Memory Write Strobe: This signal is active LOW.
DR 1 & 3 I DMA Requests 1 and 3: These lines are asynchronous channel requests used by peripheral devices to gain DMA service. A request is generated by bringing DRl and, 3 lines must be held high until the corresponding DACK line goes active.
/DACK 0, 1 & 3 0 DMA Acknowledge 0, 1 & 3: These lines are used to acknowledge DMA requests and refresh system DRAM (DACKO). They are active LOW.
BEN 0 Address Enable: This line is used to degate the CPU and other devices from the 1/0 channel to allow DMA transfers to take place. This signal is active HIGH. When this line is HIGH, the DMA Controller (82C37) has control of the lines (address bus, data bus read and write strobe: memory and I/O)
/TC 0 Terminal Count: This line provides a pulse when the terminal count for DMA channel is reached. This signal is active LOW.
/ENABLE 0 ENABLE: This line maintains a High level when internal devices are selected (ROM. RAM, VRAM, and I/O)
+5v +5V +1%, -5% Max 200mA available on the bus.
GND Power Return for +5V
