Are there any design "gotchas" that have to be considered (funny timing stuff with Phi2 or stretching any timing signals) or do you just plumb data bus and select to it? I know the Z8530 has some software timing issues (because you select a register with the first write then use the register with the next access there's internal set up time) but I wouldn't expect that from the 16550. I've used them in x86 machines and I'd just like to learn if there are any issues to be aware with connecting them to 65xx machines. Thanks! -ethanReceived on 2024-02-12 18:00:13
