TINY-2/MICRO-2 Technical Ref., 2. Ed 1989

- 4 -

INTRODUCTION

This manual applies to both the TINY-2 and MICROPOWER-2 packet controllers. These units share
the same basic design and interface to radios and computer terminals identically. The term TINY-
2/MICRO-2 is used throughout this manual to refer to both units when dealing with components
and procedures which are the same for both units.

The terms "Computer and terminal" are used interchangeably to refer to the computer or terminal
used to communicate with the packet controller. This is not meant to imply that a computer is nec-
essary for operation of a packet controller.

Every effort has been made to make  this manual complete  and accurate, however  PacComm as-
sumes  no  responsibility  for  damages  incurred  as  a  result  of  using  this  documentation.  PacComm
reserves  the  right  to  make  changes  to  equipment  specifications  or  documentation  at  any  time
without notice or obligation to previous purchasers. Your comments and suggestions for improve-
ment are welcome.

Be sure to read any errata, manual updates, and software release notes before operating the pack-
et controller.

Features

Firmware

Completely TNC-2 firmware Compatible
Supports all 'TAPR' commands plus many PacComm additions.
Personal Message System (optional on TINY-2)

Hardware

NMOS Z-80 CPU and SIO (MDLC) [MICROPOWER-2: CMOS]
4.9 MHz CPU clock speed
32k EPROM and 32k RAM
Typical Power Consumption: 9 – 14 VDC @ 220 mA [40 mA]
Crystal controlled IC modem supports 1200/2200 Hz tones
DE-9P (male) for RS-232 Computer
TNC-2 type modem disconnect header
Power, Connect, Status, PTT, Carrier Detect LEDs
Extruded aluminum case 5 × 7 × 1 3/8 inches with gray, oven baked wrinkle finish
Metal end panels grounded to prevent RFI

NET/ROM and ROSE Compatibility

The TINY-2/MICRO-2 are TNC-2 compatible meaning that an EPROM designed for a TNC-2 com-
patible (such as both NET/ROM and ROSE networking EPROMs) will operate in a TINY-2/MICRO-2.
Please refer to Appendix A for interconnection cable Information for dual/multi-node units.
