AT/TS8xC54/8X2
13. ONCETM Mode (ON Chip Emulation)
The ONCE mode facilitates testing and debugging of systems using TS80C54/58X2 without
removing the circuit from the board. The ONCE mode is invoked by driving certain pins of the
TS80C54/58X2; the following sequence must be exercised:
• Pull ALE low while the device is in reset (RST high) and PSEN is high.
• Hold ALE low as RST is deactivated.
While the TS80C54/58X2 is in ONCE mode, an emulator or test CPU can be used to drive the
circuit Table 13-1 shows the status of the port pins during ONCE mode.
Normal operation is restored when normal reset is applied.
