To plug in a module, position the 2-row 40 pole or 3-row 60-pole M-module interface connector of the module above the 2-row header P1 of the i4000. Then push the module until the header connector is positioned and press the module with care in its place.

    i4000 - Quad M-module carrier for VMEbus User Manual NTERFACE 4.1. DDRESS NTERFACE The i4000 can be selected to accept either short addressing, using 16-bit addresses (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.

LOCK IAGRAM Figure 7 i4000 block diagram The interrupt controller used on the i4000 is largely compatible with the MC68153 interrupt controller from Motorola. The interrupt controller provides means for the modules to ask for an interrupt of the processor activity and receive service from the processor.

    i4000 - Quad M-module carrier for VMEbus User Manual 5.1.2. A DDRESS APPING As mentioned before the address space occupied by the i4000 board is 0x800 bytes (A0-A10). These 0x800 bytes are divided into 4 identical spaces. Every 0x200 bytes block is assigned to a module slot. The first 0x100 bytes address space are assigned to the module itself and the second 0x100 bytes are used for the access part of the interrupt controller.

C ONTROL EGISTER Control Register Reset: Write only L2-L0 (Interrupt level) The least significant 3-bit field of the register determines the level at which an interrupt will be generated. These three bits are only used in the i4000/NP2 interrupt controller, if the interrupt level dipswitches are set to software irq level (all “on”).
