3.8. CPU TEST PINS (J1)
The CPU test pins are connected to the corresponding CPU pins. The test pin numbers
correspond to the CPU pin numbers on a one-to-one basis. The test pins can be used to
handle CPU signals for test purposes.
3.9. CLOCK SOCKET (OSC1)
The OSC1 socket is connected to an oscillator used to supply clock pulses to the CPU. The
V830 uses a PLL for system clock generation. The SW1-7 setting specifies the frequency of
the oscillator connected to the OSC1 socket. The frequency must be half or one-third the
internal clock frequency.
The oscillator connected to the OSC1 socket must be of an 8-pin DIP type (half type).
[Caution] When you have to cut an oscillator or crystal pin for convenience, be careful not to
cut it too short, or otherwise the frame (housing) of the oscillator or crystal may touch a tine in
the socket, resulting in a short-circuit occurring.

RTE-V830-PC USER’S MANUAL

3.10. DRAM-SIMM SOCKETS
The RTE-V830-PC has DRAM-SIMM sockets used to install two 4 Mbytes (standard) of SIMMs.
Each socket can hold a 72-pin 4-, 8-, or 16-Mbyte SIMM (known as a module for DOS/V
machines), so it is easy to expand the capacity of DRAM. Select SIMM chips that meet the
access timing requirements listed in a table elsewhere. The selected SIMM chips must be of
the same model. The capacity of installed SIMMs can be detected using a PIO port. (See
Section 6.2.)
3.11. ROM SOCKETS
The RTE-V830-PC has ROM sockets to hold 40-pin ROM chips to provide standard 128 Kbytes
(64K x 16 bits). When the ROM chips used here are to be replaced, the access time should be
150 ns or less.

4. INSTALLATION AND USE
The RTE-V830-PC board is designed to be installed in the ISA bus slot of a PC/AT or compatible
(hereafter called the PC). However, it can also be used as a standalone, if it is powered from
an external power supply. When the board is used for testing purposes or with the Multi
debugger, communication software called RTE for Windows must be installed in the PC. Refer
to the RTE for Windows Installation Manual for installation and test methods.
4.1. BOARD SETTING
The RTE-V830-PC board has DIP switches. The DIP switches can be used to set up the
evaluation board. The switch layout is shown below.
Switches on the RTE-V830-PC Board
SW2 is a switch for selecting the I/O address of the ISA bus. Switch contacts 1 to 8 correspond
to ISA addresses A4 to A11, respectively (A12 to A15 are fixed at 0). This means that the I/O
address that can be selected ranges between 000xH and 0FFxH. When a switch contact is
open, it corresponds to 1. When it is closed, it corresponds to 0. Generally, SW2 is set to any
value between 20xH and 3FxH.

4.2. INSTALLATION ON THE ISA BUS
When the RTE-V830-PC is installed in the ISA bus slot of the PC, power (+5V) is supplied from
the ISA bus to the board. In addition, the ISA bus can be used for communication with the
debugger, so programs are down-loaded at high speed.
The RTE-V830-PC can be installed in the ISA bus slot according to the following procedure.
•Set the I/O address of the PC using a DIP switch on the board. Be careful not to specify
the same I/O address as used for any other I/O unit. See Section 4.1 for switch setting.
‚Turn off the power to the PC, open its housing, and confirm the ISA bus slot to be used. If
the slot is equipped with a rear panel, remove the rear panel.
ƒInsert the board into the ISA bus slot. Make sure that the board does not touch any
adjacent board. Fasten the rear panel of the board to the housing of the PC with screws.
„Turn on the power to the PC, and check that the POWER-LED on the board lights. If the
LED does not light, turn off the PC power immediately, and check the connection. If
the system does not start normally (for example, if an error occurs during installation of a
device driver), it is likely that the set I/O address is the same as one already in use.
Reconfirm the I/O address of the board by referring to the applicable manual of the PC or
the board.
…When the system turns out to be normal, turn off the PC power again, and put back its
housing.

RTE-V830-PC USER’S MANUAL

4.3. STANDALONE USE OF THE BOARD
When the RTE-V830-PC is used as a standalone rather than being installed in the PC, it
requires an external power supply. In addition, communication with the debugger is supported
only by the RS-232C interface. This configuration is useful when the host debugger used with
the board is not one in the PC/AT or compatible as well as when the board is used for hardware
confirmation and expansion.
The RTE-V830-PC can be used as a standalone according to the following procedure.
•Get an RS-232C cable for connection with the host and an external power supply (+5 V, 1
A) on hand. Especially for the power supply, watch for its voltage and connector polarity.
In addition, attach spacers to the four corners of the board, so it will not pose any problem
wherever it is installed. See Sections 3.7 and 3.2 for RS-232C cable connection and the
power supply connector, respectively.
‚Set the RS-232C baud rate using a DIP switch on the board. See Section 4.1 for switch
setting.
ƒConnect the board to the host via an RS-232C cable. Also connect an external power
supply to the JPOWER connector, then check that the POWER-LED on the board lights.
If the LED does not light, turn off the power immediately, and check the connection.

EXT-BUS space (6010-0000H to 601F-FFFFH)
This space is used for a hardware expansion board connected to the JEXT connector on the
RTE-V830-PC. See Chapter 7 for details of the EXT-BUS.
SYSTEM-I/O space (6100-0000H to 61FF-FFFFH)
This space is assigned to I/O devices for controlling each function on the board. It acts as
memory-mapped I/O units. See Chapter 6 for details..
SRAM space (FE00-0000H to FE07-FFFFH and 7E00-0000H to 7E07-FFFFH)
This space is provided in SRAM on the board. Its capacity is 512 Kbytes. SRAM can be
accessed with no wait state. Wait states can be specified for read and write cycles
separately. (See Section 6.2.)
ROM space (FFFC-0000H to FFFF-FFFFH and 7FFC-0000H to 7FFF-FFFFH)
This space is provided in ROM on the board. Its storage capacity is 256 Kbytes. Ten wait
states are inserted in a ROM access cycle during ready signal control. If the external bus
clock frequency is 50 MHz, the access time of the ROM must be 150 ns or less.
The standard ROM chip that is factory-set contains the Multi monitor.
5.2. I/O MAP
The I/O space in the V830-CPU is not used by the RTE-V830-PC. The I/O registers used for
control purposes are allocated in the memory-mapped SYSTEM-I/O space.

RTE-V830-PC USER’S MANUAL

6. SYSTEM-I/O
SYSTEM-I/O is an I/O device mapped in a memory space. The I/O devices include the
UART/TIMER, PIO, and ISA bus interface. (No description about the ISA bus interface is
included.)
6.1. UART/TIMER (SCC2691)
The SCC2691 UART receiver/transmitter LSI chip produced by PHILIPS Signetics is used as the
UART/TIMER. Because the SCC2691 has a 3-character buffer in the receiver section, it is
possible to minimize chances of an overrun error occurring during reception. Moreover, a
3.6864 MHz oscillator is connected across the X1 and X2 pins. It, in conjunction with a 16-bit
counter in the SCC2691, enables measurement of about 271 ns to 17.8 ms.
Each register in the SCC2691 is assigned as listed below. Refer to the applicable SCC2691
manual for the function of each register.

DTR- NMIMASK TOVERFCLR- Reserved
field 1
Reserved field 1: The bit in this field is reserved for the system. Once the bit is initialized to 1,
do not change it.
TOVERCLR-: This is a control bit used to clear TOVERF- in bit 5 of port 2. It should be
initialized to 1 and usually kept to be 1. When TOVERF- is to be cleared,
the bit should be rest to 0, then set back to 1.
NMIMASK: This bit is used to mask an NMI signal input to the CPU. When the bit is 1,
the NMI signal is masked at a gate. The bit should be initialized to 1.
When an NMI becomes acceptable, the bit should be reset to 0. In the Multi
monitor, it is initialized to 1.
DTR-: This bit controls the DTR signal output from the JSIO connector. The
inverted state of this bit is converted to the RS-232C level and output to the
JSIO connector.
Port 2: Internal control port (input).....61000808h
P27 P26 P25 P24
PD2 PD1 TOVERF- DSR-
DSR-: This bit indicates the state of the DSR signal input from the JSIO connector. The
state of this bit represents the inverted state of the DSR signal at the JSIO
connector.
TOVERF-: This bit becomes 0, when 30 or more bus cycles occur to result in a time-out. The
flag is cleared (to 1), using bit 1 (TOVERCLR-) of port 2.
PD[2..1]: PD[2..1] of a DRAM (72-pin SIMM) chip mounted on the board can be read-
accessed. The states of these bits indicate the size of the DRAM area. The
following table lists the relationships between PD[2..1] and the DRAM capacity.
