Fig. 3 is the block schematic diagram of another embodiment of the present invention.
Embodiment
At first, seeing also Fig. 2, is the block schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present invention.As shown in the figure, multi-functional input-output system of the present invention consists predominantly of a plurality of input-output units, a control chip 22 and an address data bus 26.System with three input-output units is an example, then these a plurality of input-output units include first input-output unit 241, second input-output unit 243 and the 3rd input-output unit 245, and each input-output unit is respectively equipped with a plurality of data pins and a plurality of address pin.Wherein first input-output unit 241 is provided with data pin dat[i:0], and address pin add[p:0]; Second input-output unit is provided with data pin dat[j:0], and address pin add[q:0]; The 3rd input-output unit then is provided with data pin dat[k:0], and address pin add[r:0].
Be provided with first controller 221, second controller 223 and the 3rd controller 225 that correspond respectively to first input-output unit 241, second input-output unit 243 and the 3rd input-output unit 245 in the control chip 22, each controller is connected to the address data pin ad[m:0 of control chip 22 by a multiplexer 227], address data pin ad[m:0] then include AD[m:0 via one] and etc. the m+1 bar connect the data pin and the address pin of each input-output unit corresponding to the address data bus 26 of the signal line of each address data pin.
During system acting, be to utilize moderator 229 arbitrations that connect multiplexer 227 and each controller respectively, use be decided by to obtain control chip 22 address data pin ad[m:0 by first controller 221, second controller 223 or the 3rd controller 225 by multiplexer 227 in the time interval] the right to use.This moderator 229 can be connected first input-output unit 241, second input-output unit 243 and the 3rd input-output unit 245 respectively with the first enable signal line 291, the second enable signal line 293 and the 3rd enable signal line 295 via activation pin CE1, CE2 and the CE3 of control chip 22 simultaneously, can be when each controller be obtained the address data pin right to use, with its pairing input-output unit activation (enable), other input-output units then give forbidden energy (disable) simultaneously.So can make application system 23,, its specified input-output unit be carried out the action of access by this control chip 22 as computer or other information devices.And the address data pin of the possible maximum quantity of an input-output unit only need be set on the control chip 22, and can reduce the required pin number of control chip 22 in a large number, dwindle the area of control chip 22 and save its cost of manufacture.
In above-mentioned multi-functional input-output system, still a signal corresponding intrument 28 can be set in multiplexer 227.This signal corresponding intrument 28 can preestablish each the data pin of each input-output unit and the corresponded manner of each address pin and control chip 22 each address data pin, and each input-output unit then is connected in address data bus 26 corresponding signal line with each data pin with each address pin according to the corresponded manner that sets in the signal corresponding intrument 28.That is we can be as first input-output unit 241 among the figure, with data pin dat[i:0], address pin add[p:0] connect the signal line AD[i+p+1:0 in the address data bus 26 successively]; Or as second input-output unit 243, with data pin dat[j:0], address pin add[q:0] connect signal line AD[j+p+1:0 in the address data bus 26 according to reverse order]; Or as the 3rd input-output unit 245, with address pin add[q:0] connect address data pin AAD[r:0 successively], data pin dat[k:0] then connect address data pin AD[r+k+1:0 successively] or the like.The spatial disposition mode of its each device or the corresponded manner that other demands are arranged its signal can be complied with by system, so, not only the wiring (layout) of system can be simplified, can significantly reduce the required area of wiring simultaneously, accord with people for the compact requirement of information product.
Above-mentioned signal corresponding intrument 28 can be selected to implement with circuit mode, and directly the corresponded manner switching mode with circuit in multiplexer with each signal realizes.This signal corresponding intrument 28 also may be selected to be flash memory (flash memory), electronics formula ROM (read-only memory) (the electrically erasableprogrammable read-only memory that can erase; EEPROM) or non-volatility memorizer (non-volatilerandom access memory; NVRAM) and in storer, store a signal corresponding tables, utilize this signal corresponding tables and can learn the corresponding relation of each address data pin and each each pin of input-output unit.And in this embodiment, the signal corresponding tables in the storer still can be revised according to the demand additions and deletions of system, makes system design have bigger elasticity.
At last, seeing also Fig. 3, is the block schematic diagram of another embodiment of the present invention.As shown in the figure, its main framework and embodiment illustrated in fig. 2 roughly the same, just each input-output unit 341,343 and 345 still can include at least one control pin, as the control pin com[x:0 of first input-output unit 341], the control pin com[y:0 of second input-output unit 343] and the control pin com[z:0 of the 3rd input-output unit 345].Control chip 32 is provided with a plurality of address data control pin add[m:0], and utilize include many signal line ADC[m:0] address data control bus 36 be connected to each input-output unit.
In the present embodiment, signal corresponding intrument 38 can also comprise the control pin of each input-output unit and the corresponding relation of control chip 32 address data control pin come in, and so will make the wires design of entire system have bigger elasticity.
Multi-functional input-output system of the present invention regardless of applying to the structure of card reader or it being integrated in the computer motherboard, all can be brought into play the advantage of its height cloth linear elasticity and the system of saving area.This system is applicable to various input-output unit, as CF (Compact Flash) storage card, SM (Smart Media) storage card, MS (Memory Stick) storage card, SD (Secured Digital) storage card, MMC (MultiMedia Card) storage card, NAND flash memory cards, NOR flash memory cards, USB device, (parallel) IDE device arranged side by side, tandem (serial) IDE device, ROM (read-only memory) (ROM), the formula of can erasing ROM (read-only memory) (EEPROM) and general I/O chip (General-Purpose I/O) or the like.
In sum, the invention relates to a kind of input-output system when knowing, especially refer to a kind of multi-functional input-output system, it mainly is to utilize a multiplexer to cooperate a signal corresponding intrument, and the circuit that input-output unit is connected with control chip is freely allocated, effectively the required area of reduction wiring.So the present invention one is rich in novelty, progressive, and can utilize effect for industry, meet in the patent please important document undoubtedly, the whence is submitted application for a patent for invention in accordance with the law, earnestly asks and vouchsafes patent of the present invention early, the true feeling moral just.
The above, it only is a preferred embodiment of the present invention, be not to be used for limiting scope of the invention process, be that all equalizations of doing according to the described shape of the present patent application claim, structure, feature, spirit and method change and modification, all should be included in the claim of the present invention.
