process works.

The IOS2-IOS0 pins are

decoded through a 3 to 12 Decoder to generate

a 12-bit value. These 12 bits are compared to

the A15-A4 lines of the address bus in order to

determine which block of 16 I/O locations will be

used by the chip. A logic "0" on the AEN signal

enables the I/O decoding process. Tables 3 and

illustrate

the

COM90C66

map.

Reserved locations should not be accessed.

INTERNAL REGISTERS

The

COM90C66

contains

internal

registers

which may be accessed by the microprocessor.

All undefined bits are read as undefined and

must be written as logic "0".

Status Register

The COM90C66 Status Register is an 8-bit

read-only register which can be accessed by the

microprocessor.

All of the bits in this register

(except for bits 5 and 6) are software-compatible

with previous SMSC ARCNET devices.

The

Extended

Timeout

bits

are

now

the

Configuration Register.

The Status Register

contents are traditionally defined as in Table 5.

The

Status

contents

are

defined

differently

during

the

Command

Chaining

operation.

Please refer to the "Command

Chaining" section of this document for these

definitions. The Status Register defaults to the

value 1XX1 0001 upon either hardware or

software reset.

Interrupt Mask Register (IMR)

The COM90C66 is capable of generating an

interrupt signal when certain status bits become

true. A write to the IMR specifies which status

bits will be enabled to generate the interrupt.

The bit positions in the IMR are in the same

position as their corresponding status bits in the

Status Register, and a logic "1" in a particular

position enables the corresponding interrupt.

While the Receiver Inhibited, Reconfiguration,

and

Transmitter

Available

status

bits

are

capable of generating an interrupt if enabled, the

TMA status bit will never cause an interrupt.

The IMR takes on the following bit definition:

BIT

BIT 2

BIT

RE-

CON

The three maskable status bits are ANDed with

their respective mask bits, and the results are

ORed to produce the processor interrupt signal

INTR. An RI or TA interrupt is masked when the

corresponding mask bit is reset to logic "0", but

will reappear when the corresponding mask bit

is set to logic "1" again, unless the interrupt

status condition has been cleared by this time.

A RECON interrupt is cleared when the CLEAR

FLAGS command is issued. The Interrupt Mask

either hardware or software reset.

Diagnostic Status Register

The Diagnostic Status Register contains three

read-only bits which give the user the ability to

troubleshoot network or node operation.

The

various combinations of these bits and the

Transmitter Off bit of the Configuration Register

represent different situations and can be used

during troubleshooting. These bits are reset to

logic "0" upon reading the Diagnostic Status

The register contents are as in Table 6.

The

Diagnostic Status Register defaults to the value

0X00 XXXX upon either hardware or software

reset.

Command Register

Execution

commands

are

initiated

performing a processor I/O write with the written

data defining the commands listed in Table 7.

Any combinations of written data other than

those listed in Table 7 are not permitted and

may result in incorrect chip and/or network

operation.
