PURPOSE OF INTERFACE POD
The 9000A-280QT Interface Pod
(hereafter referred to
as
the pod) interfaces
any 9000 Series
or 9100
Series tester (hereafter referred to
as
the mainframe) to a
piece of equipment
that
uses a Z80 microprocessor.
The 9000 Series Digital Troubleshooters and 9100 Series Digital
Test Systems
are designed to
test
and service printed circuit boards,instruments, and systems
that
use bus-oriented microprocessors. The interface pod
adapts
the general
purpose
architecture
of the mainframe to
a specific
microprocessor
or micro-
processor family. The interface pod adapts the mainframe
to
microprocessor-
specific functions such as pin layout,
status/
control functions, interrupt
handling, timing,
size
of
memory space, and
size
of I/
0
space.
Appendix A
contains
informationabout
using this pod with 9100 Series Digital
Test Systems in
TL/l
programs.

DESCRIPTION OF INTERFACE POD
The pod consists of
a
pair
of printed circuit
board
assemblies
mounted
in
a small
break-resistant
case. A
shielded 24-conductor cable connects the printed circuit
boards
to the mainframe;
a
ribbon
cable and connector provide connection to
the unit
under
test, hereafter referred to as
the UUT.
Figure
1—1
shows the relationship of the pod to the mainframe and
to the UUT.
Connection from the pod
to the mainframe
is
via a
front-mounted
25—pin
connector.
Connection to the UUT
is
made by plugging the
ribbon
cable plug
directly
into
the microprocessor socket. The UUT microprocessor
socket gives
the mainframe direct access to all system components which normally communi-
cate with the microprocessor.
