3. ADDRESSINGThe MPA-100 occupies a continuous 8 byte block of I/O addresses. For example, if thebase address is set to 300H, then the MPA-100 will o

The first four bytes, Base+0 through Base+3, of address space on the MPA-100 containthe internal registers of the SCC. The next two locations Base+4

4. INTERRUPTSThe MPA-100 supports eleven interrupt levels: IRQ2 -7, IRQ10 - 12, and IRQ14 - 15, and selects which interrupt level is in use through

4.1 Using Terminal Count to Generate InterruptsThe MPA-100 allows the option of generating an interrupt whenever the Terminal Count(TC) signal is asse

5. JUMPER CONFIGURATIONSThe MPA-100 utilizes various jumper blocks which allow the user to customize theirhardware configuration. The following secti

5.3 Interrupt Level Selection - J5 & J6 Jumper blocks J5 and J6 select the interrupt level that the MPA-100 utilizes. Interruptlevels IRQ2 - IRQ7

5.4 Transmit DMA Selection - J8 J8 Selects the DMA channel to be used for Transmit DMA. Three channels (1 - 3) areavailable on the MPA-100 for DMA. Wh

NOTE: Since it is illegal to perform DMA on transmit and receive on thesame DMA channel, jumper blocks J7 and J8 should never have thesame pins c

6. SCC GENERAL INFORMATIONThe Serial Communications Controller (SCC) is a dual channel, multi-protocol datacommunications peripheral. The MPA-100 pr

6.1 Accessing the RegistersThe mode of communication desired is established and monitored through the bit valuesof the internal read and write registe

and receive clocks. These clocks can be programmed in WR11 to come from the RTXC pin, theTRXC pin, the output of the BRG, or the transmit output of th

6.2 Baud Rate Generator ProgrammingThe baud rate generator (hereafter referred to as the BRG) of the SCC consists of a 16-bitdown counter, two 8-bit t

6.3 SCC Data Encoding MethodsThe SCC provides four different data encoding methods, selected by bits D6 and D5 inWR10. These four include NRZ, NRZI, F

7. DIRECT MEMORY ACCESSDirect Memory Access (DMA) is a way of transferring data on the ISA bus directly toand from memory, resulting in high data tran

When using the channel A DTR/REQ pin for transmit DMA the SCC must beprogrammed so that the request release timing of this pin is identical to the WAI

8. CONFIGURATION REGISTERThe MPA-100 is equipped with an onboard register used for configuring informationsuch as DMA enables, DMA sources, interrupt

D1 -RXSRC, RECEIVE DMA SOURCE:When set (logic 1), this bit allows the source for Receive DMA to come from theW/REQB pin of channel B on the SCC. W

9. COMMUNICATIONS REGISTERThe MPA-100 is equipped with an onboard Communications Register which gives theuser options pertaining to the clocks and tes

10. DTE/DCE CONFIGURATIONAs indicated earlier in this manual, the MPA-100 can be configured as either a DataTerminal Equipment (DTE) or a Data Communi

10.1 DTE ConfigurationThe MPA-100 is configured as a DTE device by correctly setting jumper packs J2, J11and J12. See Section 5, Table 3 for this co

The testing signals the DTE can generate are the Local Loopback Test (LL) and theRemote Loopback Test (RL). These signals are generated from the onboa

Control signals the DCE can generate are the Clear to Send (CTS), Carrier Detect (CD),and Data Set Ready (DSR). It can receive the signals Data Termi
