STD 32 Single Master
The ZT 8905 supports additional memory and I/O through the STD 32 bus. Both Standard
Architecture (8- and 16-bit) and Extended Architecture (8-, 16-, and 32-bit) transfer types are
dynamically supported through the STD 32 interface. Jumperless configuration of interrupt, DMA, and
STD 32 bus memory and I/O space is configured through the BIOS SETUP utility. See the section
"ZT 8905 SETUP" in Chapter 2 for more information.
STD 32 Multiple Master (STAR SYSTEM)
The ZT 8905 is configurable to operate in a multiple master architecture as a Permanent Master or a
Temporary Master. With this architecture, up to seven ZT 8905 boards share STD bus memory and
I/O resources. The Permanent Master provides the system clock and reset function and also
provides the pull-up signals for the open-collector signals on the STD 32 bus. The Permanent Master
is also responsible for initializing shared memory and other system I/O on behalf of any Temporary
Masters. The STAR BIOS manages all of the system initialization.
