3095 is the second ND-110 CPU board. The first version was numbered 3090. It contains the CPU, bus arbitration logic, memory control, cache memory and other subsystems, including the Real time clock and the I/O for the serial console.

Introduction

The ND-110 is an improvement over the ND-100 in a number of areas.

  • Size. The CPU, the Memory Management System, cache memory and operator panel processor is combined on one single board.
  • New technology. The CPU is constructed by a gate-array. The CPU concists of three VLSI gate arrays, RMIC, RMAC and BUFALU.
  • New cache memory strategy. The first micro instruction word of a macroinstruction is stored in cache memory.
  • Address arithmetic. Address arithmetic is performed in the RMAC gate array, not by the micro code as in ND-100.
  • The interrupt system. Unlike the ND-100 CPU, the ND-110/CX CPU handles synchronous interrupts as traps., a bit like ND-500 does.
  • The Control Store. The control store is based on fast read/write ram instead of prom. At power up the memory is initialised from two 8 kbyte EPROMs. The control store can be read or modified by program.
  • Control logic and timing. Much of the control and timing logic have been moved into PAL chips. The main crystal oscillator is now a 39.3216 MHz oscillator. It is used for the nano-sequencer, the CPU-clock, the bus arbiter, the real time clock and the console UART. The nano-sequencer is a four bit state machine used for timing and control.
  • Power consumption. The power consumption was reduced from 90 watts to 60.[citation needed]

The A and B connectors are used for I/O, the C connector is used for the ND-100 Bus.

I/O Devices on the card

Console terminal interface

The console terminal interface is on the CPU board. It occupies the I/0 address address range 300 (octal) - 307 (octal). Addresses 301 (octal) and 304 (octal) are not used.

read-data

  • address 300 (octal)

The read-data register contains the most recently received character.

read-status

  • address 302 (octal)

The read-status register contains the current status of the input channel. The bits are assigned as follows:

  • Bit 0: Set (= 1) if interrupt on data available.
  • Bit 1: always zero.
  • Bit 2: always zero.
  • Bit 3: Set (= 1) if data is available. Note: bit 3 is never set when the CPU is in OPCOM mode.
  • Bit 4: Set (= 1) if data is in error (one or more of bits 5-7 set).
  • Bit 5: Set (= 1) if there was a framing error.
  • Bit 6: Set (= 1) if there was a parity error.
  • Bit 7: Set (= 1) if there was an overrun.

Bits 8-15 are always zero.

read-control

  • address 303 (octal)

The read-control register is used to set the input channel parameters. Bits 0, 11, 12 and 13 and 14 are used. Unused bits should be set to zero. Note: The word length and parity settings also apply for the output channel.

  • Bit 0: Set to 1 to enable interrupt when data is available.
  • Bit 11 & 12: Bits 11 and 12 determine the word length. Parity, if used, adds 1 extra bit to the word 1ength.
bit 11 bit 12 word length
1 1 5 bits
0 1 6 bits
1 0 7 bits
0 0 8 bits
  • Bit 13: Set (=> 1) for one stop bit. Reset (=> 0) for two stop bits (1.5 for 5-bit word length).
  • Bit 14: Set (=> 1) to make the interface check parity. The word length will be increased by one when parity is being used.

write-data

  • address 305 (octal)

Data written to the write-data register wi11 be sent to the output channel.

write-status

  • address 306 (octal)

The write-status register contains the current status of the output channel. The bits are assigned as follows:

  • Bit 0: Set (= 1) indicates that the interface will generate an interrupt when it is ready for transfer,
  • Bit 3: Set (= 1) indicates that the transmitter is ready for transfer (data may be written).

Bits 1-2 and 4-5 are not used (always zero).

write-control

  • address 307 (octal)

The write-control register is used to set the output channel parameters. Only bit 0 is used. Set the other bits to zero.

  • Bit 0: Set (= 1) to generate interrupts when the device is ready for transfer (a new data word may be written to the write-data register).

The word length and parity (if used) are the same as set in the read-control register.

Real-time clock

The real-time clock on the CPU board occupies device-register address range 10 (octal)-13 (octal). Address 10 (octal) is not used (returns 0).

clear real-time clock

  • device-register address 11 (octal)

Writing to this address causes the next clock pulse to occur exactly 20 ms later. If this instruction is executed repeatedly, the counter will never be incremented, and no clock pulses will occur.

read clock status

  • device-register address 12 (octal)
  • Bit 0: Set (= 1) means that the clock will generate an interrupt when next clock pulse arrives.
  • Bit 3: Set (= 1) means that the clock is ready for transfer (that is a clock pulse has occurred). Bits 1-2 and 4-15 are always zero.

set clock status

  • device-register address 13 (octal)
  • Bit 0: Set (=> 1) to enable interrupts when ready for transfer.
  • Bit 13: Set (=> 1) to clear the ready for transfer bit in the clock status register.
