ARM720T_LH79520 – Sharp LH79520 SoC with ARM720T 32-bit RISC Processor 
Pin Description 
The following pin description is for the processor when used on the schematic. In an OpenBus System, although the same 
signals are present, the abstract nature of the system hides the pin-level Wishbone interfaces. The interface signals to the 
physical processor will be made available as sheet entries, associated with the parent sheet symbol used to reference the 
underlying OpenBus System.

Description 
Control Signals 
CLK_I 
I Rise 
External (system) clock. This signal is internally wired to the 
ARM7_SYS_CLK output. 
RST_I 
I High 
External (system) reset. This signal is internally wired to the 
ARM7_SYS_RESET output 
Interrupt Signals 
INT_I 
I 32 
Interrupt lines. The least significant 5 lines are routed through to the 
physical device on the PER_INT bus (see 
External Memory Interface Signals 
ME_STB_O 
O High 
Strobe signal. When asserted, indicates the start of a valid Wishbone 
data transfer cycle 
ME_CYC_O 
O High 
Cycle signal. When asserted, indicates the start of a valid Wishbone 
bus cycle. This signal remains asserted until the end of the bus 
cycle, where such a cycle can include multiple data transfers 
ME_ACK_I 
I High 
Standard Wishbone device acknowledgement signal. When this 
signal goes High, an external Wishbone slave memory device has 
finished execution of the requested action and the current bus cycle 
is terminated 
ME_ADR_O 
O 32 
Standard Wishbone address bus, used to select an address in a 
connected Wishbone slave memory device for writing to/reading 
from 
ME_DAT_I 
I 32 
Data received from an external Wishbone slave memory device 
ME_DAT_O 
O 32 
Data to be sent to an external Wishbone slave memory device 
ME_SEL_O 
O 4 
Select output, used to determine where data is placed on the 
ME_DAT_O line during a Write cycle and from where on the 
ME_DAT_I line data is accessed during a Read cycle. Each of the 
data ports is 32-bits wide with 8-bit granularity, meaning data 
transfers can be 8-, 16- or 32-bit. The four select bits allow targeting 
of each of the four active bytes of a port, with bit 0 corresponding to 
the low byte (7..0) and bit 3 corresponding to the high byte (31..24) 
ME_WE_O 
Level 
Write enable signal. Used to indicate whether the current local bus 
cycle is a Read or Write cycle. 
0 = Read 
1 = Write 
ME_CLK_O 
O Rise 
External (system) clock signal (identical to CLK_I), made available 
for connecting to the CLK_I input of a slave memory device. Though 
not part of the standard Wishbone interface, this signal is provided 
for convenience when wiring your design 
ME_RST_O 
O High 
Reset signal made available for connection to the RST_I input of a 
slave memory device. This signal goes High when an external reset 
is issued to the processor on its RST_I pin. When this signal goes 
Low, the reset cycle has completed and the processor is active 
again. Though not part of the standard Wishbone interface, this 
signal is provided for convenience when wiring your design
