Files on this disk
------------------
- README: you are reading it.
- *.EXE and *.LST: the ETM executable programs, and
field and register list files:
- ETMUSC.EXE /.LST for the USC (Z16C30)
- ETMMUSC.EXE /.LST for the MUSC (Z16C33)
- ETMIUSC.EXE /.LST for the IUSC (Z16C31)
Version 1.2 release notes
-------------------------
1. The Help menu displays three more options than are described in the
user's guide:
- Editors: explains the three editors of the ETM.
- Field Types: the ETM considers four types of register fields, listed and
compared here.
- Code Generation: provides explanations on the C files generated by the
ETM.
2. Memory requirements
The ETM dynamically allocates memory when you build an initialization
sequence and open windows. To avoid a shortage of memory, it is advised
to work with 640k RAM with a maximum of that memory available to
executable programs. You should remove all TSR programs (Terminate-
Stay-Resident).
3. Cross-references to technical documentation
The ETM provides cross-references to the technical documentation of the
supported device. These references are displayed on the bottom-right
corner of the screen with the following formats:
(TM:page number) for reference to a Technical Manual
(PS:page number) for reference to a Product Specification
ETMUSC.EXE and ETMMUSC.EXE
reference the Z16C30/Z16C33 technical manual
ETMIUSC.EXE
reference the Z16C30/Z16C33 technical manual
and the Z16C31 product specification
BBS information
---------------
Zilog's Bulletin Board can be accessed at the following number
(408) 370-8024
(2400 bds, 8 bits/no parity, 1 stop bit)
For a full access to the Bulletin Board services, you must register by
returning the enclosed registration card. Your priviledges will be updated
to allow you to download next releases of the ETM.
USC Initialization window
-------------------------
From the set of USC initialization variables, seven primary variables
should particularly catch your attention:
Configuration, Protocol, BaudRate,
TxMethod, RxMethod, TSA, Enables
If you choose to implement any of these variables, the ETM will ask you
to set the secondary variables (Interfaces, Processor, ExtClockRate,
etc...) as required.
This is the complete set of initialization variables of the ETM Version 1.2.
Configuration
Interface8 type of 8-bit interface
Interface16 type of 16-bit interface
Processor type of processor
IntAckPin configuration of INTACK pin
Protocol
ModemControl modem control signals
BaudRate
ExtClockRate external clock rate value
ExtClockPin pin for external clock
ThisBaudRateFor baud rate for reception or transmission
UseDPLL sets baud rate using DPLL or not
DPLL_X DPLL multiplier
Async_X Asynchronous protocol special multiplier
CTR_X 5-bit counter multiplier
BRG_X baud rate generator multiplier
TxMethod
StatusIntEnable enable for status interrupts
RxMethod
TSA
Enables
The BaudRate and ExtClockRate are numerical variables. You can select
one of the proposed values or enter your own. You can use decimal values
in the following formats:
- 9600
- 64k or 64K for 64,000
- 1m or 1M for 1,000,000
These programs are released as an engineering aid to electronic design
engineers using the Zilog family of data communication products. They may
not be altered in any way.
This is the first release of Zilog's
ELECTRONIC TECHNICAL MANUAL
for the USC family of devices
