1. Set the switches on the DQP-1500 controller

Two switch-packs on the DQP-1500 allow you to set the base address, base interrupt vector,operating mode and interrupt priority level.

A. Base AddressThe DQP-1500's base address is set using switch-pack U8. The factory setting for the baseaddress is 177607408. If a system has more than one DQP-1500 or DRQ3B installed, thesecond base address is 177607608. Additional DQP-1500 modules are given addresses inincrements of 208.

NOTE

Like the DRQ3B, the DQP-1500 has a floating base address. This means thatif there are other devices with floating addresses of lower rank, the DQP-1500

base address may be higher than 177607408.

The base address is set by switches in switch U8. Setting a switch to Closed (On) sets alogical 1 in the address. Figure 1-1 shows the location of switch-pack U8 on the module.Figure 1-2 shows the use of each switch position and the correspondence between baseaddress bits and the switch settings.

The registers on the board are offset from the base address. Throughout this manual, whenan actual address is given for a register, the location is determined using the factoryconfiguration base address. If the module has a different base address, the actual addressesof all the other registers are different. The offsets for each register on the module are listedin Table 1-1.

Table 1-1: Register Address Offsets

The DMA registers, which are accessed through the DMA Data Window register and theDMA Address Window register, have addresses independent of the base address.

B. Vector AddressWhen the DQP-1500 generates an interrupt, processing is diverted to an address defined bythe module's vector address. The DQP-1500 supports two separate vector addresses: one forthe FIFO related interrupts, and one for the DMA channel interrupts. A vector addressdefines the starting location of the interrupt service routine which handles the interrupt.

The factory configuration for the DQP-1500 vector base address is 3008. Additional DQP-1500's are given vector addresses in increments of 108. Thus, a second DQP-1500 installedin a system is assigned a vector address of 3108.

Note:

The DQP-1500 has a floating vector address. This means that if there areother devices with floating vector addresses of lower rank,

the DQP-1500 vector address may be higher than 3008.

Table 1-2 shows how the vector addresses are offset from the vector base address. Thefactory configurations shown are valid only for the first DQP-1500 installed in a system.Second DQP-1500's have vector addresses offset from a base address of 3208.

Table 1-2: Vector Address Offsets

When an interrupt occurs, the DQP-1500 generates the vector according to which interruptoccurred. When a FIFO related interrupt occurs, the vector address generated is 3008. Whena DMA interrupt from either port occurs, the DQP-1500 generates a vector address of 3048.

Positions 1 through 7 of switch-pack U3 are used to set the vector base address of the DQP-1500. Setting a switch to Closed sets a logical 1 in the address. Figure 1-1 shows thelocation of switch-pack U3. Figure 1-3 shows the use of each switch position and thecorrespondence between the vector address bits and the switches in switch-pack U3.

C. Extended Block ModeThe extended block mode option increases data transfer rates by approximately 20% to 2.6megabytes/second. Extended mode may only be used in MicroVAX based systems, PDP-11based systems do not support extended block mode.

Set extended mode by setting position 8 of switch-pack U3 Closed (On), disable extendedblock mode by setting position 8 to the Open or Off. The factory setting is extended blockmode enabled.

D. Interrupt Priority LevelAll Qbus interrupts are assigned a priority level. The highest priority level is 7. Interruptswith a higher priority are serviced first by the CPU. The DQP-1500 can be assigned apriority level between 4 and 7. The factory configuration is for a priority level of 4.

The priority level is set using positions 9 and 10 of switch-pack U3. Table 1-3 shows howthe switches are set for each priority level.

2. Install the Holdoff time jumper on the DQP-1500

A jumper on the DQP-1500 allows you to set the Holdoff time. Whenever the DQP-1500releases the bus, it waits a short period of time before it again requests control of the bus.This time period is call the holdoff time. The DQP-1500 can be set for one of two selectableholdoff times: 1 microsecond or 2.7 microseconds.

The holdoff time of 2.7 microseconds ensures that all other modules installed in a systemhave an opportunity to acquire the bus. However, the maximum throughput rates of theDQP-1500 cannot be achieved using this setting. The 1 microsecond holdoff time, whenused with the extended block mode, allows the maximum performance rates of the DQP-1500 to be obtained. However, when the DQP-1500 is set for 1 microsecond holdoff time,modules placed in the backplane further from the CPU than the DQP-1500 may havedifficulty acquiring the bus. The factory setting is for a holdoff time of 2.7 microseconds.

The three wirewrap posts at P3 on the board are used to select the holdoff time. Thesejumpers share a center post. To change the factory configured holdoff time, remove thejumper from between the center post and bottom post and install it between the center postand top post. The top post is near P3 on the silkscreen.

Figure 1-1 shows the location of the jumpers. Table 1-4 shows the jumper settings.

NoteThe holdoff times given are approximate and can

vary slightly from request to request.

2 General Description

The DQP-1500 provides the functions of a legacy Digital DRQ3B interface in a PCIcontroller for the NuVAX. Like the DRQ3B, the DQP-1500 is a high performance 16-bitparallel interface designed for real time data collection or for high speed inter-processorcommunications. It provides PIO and DMA transfers between a Qbus system and externalequipment at transfer rates up to 1.6 Mbytes/sec of 16-bit words.

Data transfers are selectable as burst, block or extended block mode DMA. Interrupt prioritylevels are switch selectable and interrupt conditions are program selectable.

DRQ3B Interface DescriptionThere are two ports associated with the DRQ3B interface. Port 0 is used for input only andPort 1 is used for output only. Each port consists of a 50-pin connector provided on the cableadapter panel. Each port is 16-data bits wide and uses two control signals to synchronizedata transfer with the external device. Port 0 also includes an end-of-process input signal toallow the external device to abort data transfers. Other general input and output signals areprovided for general purpose use. The signals are listed on the following pages.

Port 0 SignalsSignal Name Signal Description___________________________________________________________________

IN00-15 Port 0 16-bit input data signals. High true.

P0 STROBE Port 0 Strobe input signal. Low true. STROBE is asserted low by theexternal device when the external device is asserting valid data. STROBE isasserted high by the external device after receiving signal ACK.

P0 ACK Port 0 Acknowledge output signal. Low true. The ACK signal is asserted lowby the DQP-1500 after the DQP-1500 has successfully read the data valueon input signals IN00-15. ACK is asserted high by the DQP-1500 afterSTROBE is asserted high and the DQP-1500 is ready to receive more data.

P0 EOP Port 0 END-OF-PROCESS input signal. Low true. When asserted low bythe external device during a data transfer, the data word on the input signallines is flagged as the last data word to transfer for the current DMA. TheEOP signal follows the same timing as the 16-bit input data.

P0 CLR Port 0 CLEAR input signal. Low true. When the CLR signal is asserted lowby the external device, Port 0 input FIFO is reset. This signal can be used bythe external device to ensure that the Port 0 input FIFO is empty following anabort or at the beginning of a data transfer.

EXT INT EXTERNAL INTERRUPT input signal. Low true. The EXT INT signal is forgeneral purpose interrupt use. There is only one EXT INT signal and itappears on both P0 and P1 connectors. When this signal is asserted low bythe external device, a Qbus interrupt is generated if enabled. The EXT INTaction can take place without affecting any DMA activity.

INIT OUT INITIALIZE OUTPUT signal. Low true. INIT OUT is asserted low then highby the DQP-1500 under program control or when power is applied to theworkstation. This signal is intended to be used to initialize external devicesat the same time the DQP-1500 is initialized. There is only one INIT OUTsignal and it appears on both P0 and P1 connectors.

FUNCT OUT0-2 FUNCTION OUTPUT 0,1 and 2 output signals. High true. These threeDQP-1500 generated output signal are provided for general purpose use andare independent of any other DQP-1500 operations.

FUNCT IN0-2 FUNCTION INPUT 0,1 and 2 input signals. High true. These three externaldevice generated signals are provided for general purpose use and areindependent of any other DQP-1500 operations.

GND GROUND. Twenty-one ground pins are provided to support interfacegrounding requirements to an external device.

Port 1 SignalsSignal Name Signal Description________________________________________________________________________________

OUT00-15 Port 1 16-bit Output data signals. High true.

P1 DAV Port 1 Data Available output signal. Low true. DAV is asserted low by theDQP-1500 when asserting valid output data. DAV is asserted high by theDQP-1500 after receiving input signal ACK from the external device.

P1 ACK Port 1 Acknowledge input signal. Low true. The ACK signal is asserted lowby the external device after successfully reading the data value on the outputsignals OUT00-15. ACK is asserted high by the external device after DAV isasserted high.

P1 CLR Port 1 CLEAR input signal. Low true. When the CLR signal is asserted lowby the external device, Port 1 output FIFO is reset. This signal can be usedby the external device to ensure that the Port 1 output FIFO is emptyfollowing an abort or at the beginning of a data transfer.

EXT INT EXTERNAL INTERRUPT input signal. Low true. The EXT INT signal is forgeneral purpose interrupt use. There is only one EXT INT signal and itappears on both P0 and P1 connectors. When this signal is asserted low bythe external device, a Qbus interrupt is generated if enabled. The EXT INTaction can take place without affecting any DMA activity.

INIT OUT INITIALIZE OUTPUT signal. Low true. INIT OUT is asserted low then highby the DQP-1500 under program control or when power is applied to theworkstation. This signal is intended to be used to initialize external devicesat the same time the DQP-1500 is initialized. There is only one INIT OUTsignal and it appears on both P0 and P1 connectors.

FUNCT OUT3-5 FUNCTION OUTPUT 3,4 and 5 output signals. High true. These threeDQP-1500 generated output signal are provided for general purpose use andare independent of any other DQP-1500 operations.
