Signal descriptions

• /CD: Card detect. Connects to the expansion port. Grounded by the HuCard so the CD-ROM² can tell a card is inserted.
• AUDIO IN: Mono audio. Mixed into both channels.
• CPU PA20..0: CPU physical address (the 21-bit post-MMU address). PA20 is used as /CE.
• CPU D7..0: The order of these pins depends on region. For PC-Engine, they are ascending, and for TurboGrafx-16, they are descending.
• HSM: High speed mode, asserted by the CPU when operating at 7.16 MHz.
