Prototype Control Probes
11-6
If a Prototype Control Probe is purchased for use with the Z80 or 9900 Emulator Processor
module, the Mobile Microprocessor board is placed permanently within the Prototype
Control Probe. The Emulator Processor Module will function in all emulation modes in this
configuration.
9900, ZSO Prototype Control Probe
The Z80 or 9900 Emulator Processor Prototype Control Probe consists of:
1) A small termination board.
2) Dual six-foot ribbon cables.
3) The interface assembly: a circuit board containing interface and buffer circuitry
and the Mobile Microprocessor board.
4) Two 1.5-foot ribbon cables.
5} A 40-pin plug.
Fig. 11-5 illustrates the Prototype Control Probe.
The termination board plugs into the socket on the Z80 or 9900 Emulator Processor module
vacated by the Mobile Microprocessor board. Two six-foot ribbon cables are attached to
the termination board. The ribbon cables connect to the circuit board located inside the
Probe interface assembly.
The 40-pin plug is designed to fit into the prototype circuit Z80 socket. The plug has a
spring plate on the bottom that slides over the pins for protection against damage. When
the plug is inserted into a socket, the protective plate retracts into the body of the plug.
