VME6U HARDWARE REFERENCE
HACK
------------------------------Host Acknowledge.
HREQ
------------------------------Host Request.
HREQ_PEND
--------------------Host Request Pending.
insert a node
----------------------The act of placing a node on a network for the purpose of transmitting
and receiving messages.
interrupt
---------------------------An event that changes the normal flow of instruction execution other
than an exception or a branch, jump, case or call instruction.
interrupter
------------------------A functional module that generates an interrupt request on the priority
interrupt bus and then provides states/ID information when the interrupt
handler requests it.
ISR
----------------------------------Interrupt Service Routine. A routine executed when a device interrupt
occurs.
latched
-----------------------------Data is electrically stored in a circuit until it is needed. A method of
coordinating two synchronous events.
longword
---------------------------Four bytes (32 bits) of data.
loopback
---------------------------A method of transmitting to the same node’s receivers for testing
purposes. Applies to both fiber optic and wire media. Also, a test that
loops the outgoing signal back to its source.
LSB
---------------------------------Least Significant Byte.
LSP
---------------------------------Least Significant Part of the interrupt address.
LSW
--------------------------------Lease Significant Word.
master
------------------------------A functional module that initiates DTB cycles to transfer data between
itself and a slave module.
message packet
-------------------See packet.
MSB
--------------------------------Most Significant Byte.
MSP
--------------------------------Most Significant Part of the interrupt address.
MSW
-------------------------------Most Significant Word.
native message
--------------------A message that is received by the node of origin.
node latency
-----------------------The time delay at a node before a foreign message can be retransmitted.
packet
------------------------------A message that travels on the network. The minimum packet consists of
81 bits and 1 start bit. The packet includes five fields: Source ID (8 bits),
Age (8 bits), Control (3 bits), Data Address (21 bits), Data (32 bits), and
9 parity bits; one for every 8 bits.
pcb
----------------------------------Printed circuit board.
physical address
------------------The address used by hardware to identify a location in physical memory
or on directly-addressable secondary storage devices (such as disks). A
physical memory address consists of a page-frame number and the
number of a byte within the page.
platinum
---------------------------A protocol where messages are transmitted as fast as the system will
allow with error correction enabled.
p
-------------------------(Also platinum plus). A variable packet size enhancement for the
platinum protocol. Maximum packet size may be set to either 256 bytes
or 1024 bytes.
