Page 5: Using The Manual
- Quad M-module Carrier for VMEbus- Using the manual This manual serves as instruction for the operation of the VMEbus board i4000, the connection of peripheral devices and the integration in a VMEbus system. Furthermore it gives the user additional information for special applications and configurations of the assembly. -
Page 6: Introduction
- Quad M-module Carrier for VMEbus page 5 Introduction The i4000 is a modular passive peripheral-controller for the VME-bus. Up to four M-modules can be connected to the board to form a peripheral-controller.. 2.1. Technical overview The i4000 has the following features: •... -

(A16) or standard addressing, using 24 bit addresses (A24). When using short addressing up to 32 i4000 boards can be put in a single VMEbus system since the lower 11 address lines (A0-A10) are used internally on the i4000. If standard addressing is used, a larger address space is available to select the board. -

(IRQ1-IRQ7) selectable by dip switches (SW3) for all the modules. Each module can generate its own vector. There are two classes of interrupters which are both supported by the i4000: release on acknowledge (ROAK) or release on register access (RORA). The ROAK interrupter negates its interrupt request line in response to an interrupt acknowledge cycle. -

Module installation 4.1. Mounting the module A maximum of four modules can be fitted on the i4000 base board. To plug in a module slide the module from above under an angle on top of the i4000 and first position the 25-pole sub-D connector through the openings in the front cover. - Page 12 - Quad M-module Carrier for VMEbus page 11 Corresponding pins on the 96-way P2 to 24-way header connector on module.

ModuleBaseAddress = i4000BaseAddress + ModuleNumber * $200 EXAMPLE: The installed base address of the i4000 is $800000. A module is fitted into slot 2. The module base address is then $800000 + 2 * $200 = $800200. When using a 32 bit master which accesses the standard address space at address $ffxxxxxx, then the AcQuisition Technology B.V. -
Page 15: The Interrupt Controller
5.2.2. Register description The Interrupt controller of the i4000 contains 8 programmable registers. There are four control registers (CR0-CR3) that govern operation of the Interrupt controller and four vector registers (VR0-VR3) that contain the vector data used during an interrupt acknowledge cycle. -
Page 16: Control Register
The least significant 3-bit field of the register determines the level at which an interrupt will be generated. These three bits are NOT used in the i4000 interrupt controller since the interrupt level for all the four modules is selected via dip switches. However to maintain software compatibility with the A201 it is advisable to program these 3 bits with the same interrupt level as the dip switches. -
Page 17: Vector Registers
5.2.5. Interrupt controller reset When a VMEbus reset is applied, the control registers of the i4000 interrupt controller are set to all zeros (low). The vector registers however are uninitialized and should be programmed before use. -
