Introduction.
___________ _
This chapter describes the technical details of the PC IEEE
interface. In particular, how the 68B21 peripheral interface
adapter is configured as an IEEE controller chip is described.
This information is only of use to people who are dedicated to
understanding everything in their computer or for those writing
IEEE i/o routines at the assembler level. It is of no concern to
the average or more than average user, who will be accessing
the card via Professional 488 or software bundled with his IEEE
instruments.
___________ _
Specification.
The PC-IEEE interfaces is totally consistent with all
electrical, mechanical and functional specifications of the IEEE
488 and ANSI MC1.1 standards. The PC IEEE card is
compatible with all revisions of the IEEE 488 standard,
including 1975, 1978 and IEEE 488A-1980 supplement. It is also
totally consistent with the electrical and functional specifications
of the IEC 625-1 and BS6146 standards, a simple mechanical
adapter is available to interconnect the PC IEEE with IEC 625
devices.
IEEE standard 728-1982 is a recommended practice for
code and format conventions for use with IEEE 488. PC-IEEE is
perfectly compatible with this set of operational specifications.
