Mac SE and SE/30 external pinouts

May 1993

This page gives the pin assignments and functions for the connectors on the back panels of the Macintosh SE and SE/30. The pinouts are the same with the exception of the audio output ports. The Macintosh SE provides a monaural signal and the Macintosh SE/30 a stereo signal. Appropriate information appears below.

WARNING: The SCSI port uses the same type of connector as a standard RS-232, 
DB-25 serial interface, but it is different electrically. Do not connect any 
RS-232 device to this connector. Doing so can result in damage to both the 
device and the Macintosh.

Here is a description of the signals in the system expansion slot.

Signal        Description

FC0-FC2       68000 Function Code lines 
A1-A23        68000 Address lines 
E             68000 E Clock 
C8M           Microprocessor clock = 7.8336 MHz = C16M divided by 2. 
C16M          Gate Array Clock = 15.6672 MHz 
HALT/         68000 Halt. Wired directly to RESET/ 
IPL0/-IPL2/   68000 Interrupt Priority Level lines 
BERR/         68000 Bus Error.  Generated by gate array due to SCSI
                access timeout. 
Ext.DTK/      Pull low to put the gate array generated DTACK/ into a
                high-impedance state. The expansion board is then
                responsible for generating the DTACK/signal (as an output
                to the microprocessor, throught the DTACK/signal line). 
VPA/          68000 Valid Peripheral Address. Supplied to 68000.
                For Macintosh SE, VPA space is $E0 0000 to $FF FFFF. 
VMA/          68000 Valid Memory Address 
BR/           68000 Bus Request 
BGACK/        68000 Bus Grant Acknowledge 
BG/           68000 Bus Grant 
DTACK/        68000 Data Transfer Acknowledge. Inserts wait states until
                data bus is available. Normally supplied by the gate array.
                Gate array generation of DTACK/ can be suppressed (put into
                a high-impedance state) by pulling the EXT.DTACK/line low;
                this allows DTACK/ to be externally generated by an add-on
                device. DTACK/ is not supplied for accesses to VPA space,
                is held off to separate 2 successive accesses to the SCC and
                is held off during RAM access by video. 
R/W/          68000 Read/Write 
LDS/          68000 Lower Data Strobe 
UDS/          68000 Upper Data Strobe 
AS/           68000 Address Strobe 
PMCYC/        Processor-Memory Cycle. Used to synchronize with the gate
                array for RAM accesses. PMCYC/ is low when RAM is available
                for microporcessor accesses and is high during video acesses.
                PMCYC/ is always high during SO. 
RESET/        68000 Reset. Wired directly to HALT/. 
D0-D15        68000 Data Bus
