The PE4/ECLK pin is initially configured as ECLK output with stretch. The E clock output function
depends upon the settings of the NECLK bit in the PEAR register, the IVIS bit in the MODE register and
the ESTR bit in the EBICTL register. In normal expanded narrow mode, the E clock is available for use in
external select decode logic or as a constant speed clock for use in the external application system.
The PE2/R/W pin is initially configured as a general purpose input with an internal pull resistor enabled
but this pin can be reconfigured as the R/W bus control signal by writing “1” to the RDWE bit in PEAR.
If the expanded narrow system includes external devices that can be written such as RAM, the RDWE bit
would need to be set before any attempt to write to an external location. If there are no writable resources
in the external system, PE2 can be left as a general purpose I/O pin.

Emulation Expanded Wide Mode
In expanded wide modes, Ports A and B are configured as a 16-bit multiplexed address and data bus and
Port E provides bus control and status signals. These signals allow external memory and peripheral devices
to be interfaced to the MCU. These signals can also be used by a logic analyzer to monitor the progress of
application programs.
The bus control related pins in Port E (PE7/NOACC, PE6/MODB/IPIPE1, PE5/MODA/IPIPE0,
PE4/ECLK, PE3/LSTRB/TAGLO, and PE2/R/W) are all configured to serve their bus control output
functions rather than general purpose I/O. Notice that writes to the bus control enable bits in the PEAR
register in emulation mode are restricted.
4.4.3.1.5
Emulation Expanded Narrow Mode
Expanded narrow modes are intended to allow connection of single 8-bit external memory devices for
lower cost systems that do not need the performance of a full 16-bit external data bus. Accesses to internal
resources that have been mapped external (i.e. PORTA, PORTB, DDRA, DDRB, PORTE, DDRE, PEAR,
PUCR, RDRIV) will be accessed with a 16-bit data bus on Ports A and B. Accesses of 16-bit external
words to addresses which are normally mapped external will be broken into two separate 8-bit accesses
using Port A as an 8-bit data bus. Internal operations continue to use full 16-bit data paths. They are only
visible externally as 16-bit information if IVIS=1.
Ports A and B are configured as multiplexed address and data output ports. During external accesses,
address A15, data D15 and D7 are associated with PA7, address A0 is associated with PB0 and data D8
and D0 are associated with PA0. During internal visible accesses and accesses to internal resources that
have been mapped external, address A15 and data D15 is associated with PA7 and address A0 and data
D0 is associated with PB0.
The bus control related pins in Port E (PE7/NOACC, PE6/MODB/IPIPE1, PE5/MODA/IPIPE0,
PE4/ECLK, PE3/LSTRB/TAGLO, and PE2/R/W) are all configured to serve their bus control output
functions rather than general purpose I/O. Notice that writes to the bus control enable bits in the PEAR
register in emulation mode are restricted.
The main difference between special modes and normal modes is that some of the bus control and system
control signals cannot be written in emulation modes.
