Modular CPUs
The modular CPUs consist of a CPU, memory, and associated integrated circuit chips soldered to
circuit board which is mounted in a plug-in module. The modular CPUs include the model CPU331
and higher. The modular CPUs have the following basic features:
Ŷ
A CPU module must be installed in Slot 1 of a modular CPU baseplate. Slot 1 is a unique size
and type that only fits a CPU module (or special Option modules). Slot 1 is labeled CPU/1.
Details on modular CPU baseplates are located in Chapter 2.
Ŷ
Modular CPUs support expansion and remote baseplates, so A 25-pin D-type female
expansion connector is located at the right end of the CPU baseplate for connection to an
expansion or remote baseplate.
Ŷ
Since the CPU is modular, it can readily be replaced or changed to a different type if desired.
Ŷ
Only one CPU is allowed per system, and it must be mounted in a CPU baseplate. If more
than one baseplate is used in a system, the additional ones must be either expansion or remote
types that do not contain a CPU.
Ŷ
A modular CPU baseplate is always assigned, by default, Rack Number 0.
Ŷ
All have a time-of-day (TOD) clock.
