Texas Instruments SDSMAC Format (320), Code 04
Data files in the SDSMAC (320) format consist of a start-of-file record,
data records, and an end-of-file record. See Figure 6-2. The format is used
for Texas Instruments’ 320 line of processors. It is very similar to format
90; the only difference is that the address fields represent 16-bit data
words rather than bytes
Each record is composed of a series of small fields, each initiated by a tag
character. the programmer recognizes and acknowledges the following
tag characters:
0 or K—followed by a file header.
7—followed by a checksum which the programmer acknowledges.
8—followed by a checksum which the programmer ignores.
9—followed by a load address which represents a word location.
B—followed by 4 data characters (16-bit word).
F—denotes the end of a data record.
*—followed by 2 data characters.
The start-of-file record begins with a tag character and a 12-character file
header. The first four characters are the word count of the 16-bit data
words; the remaining file header characters are the name of the file and
may be any ASCII characters (in hex notation). Next come interspersed
address fields and data fields (each with tag characters). The address
fields represent 16-bit words. If any data fields appear before the first
address field in the file, the first of those data fields is assigned to address
0000. Address fields may be expressed for any data word, but none are
required.
