Univ~rsal Memory Module REV DtC-26-78




1.0 INTRODUCTION.

1.0.1 The Universal Memory ModuLe is used in the 264XX Terminals
for Display Memory or Program ~emory. This read-write memory
is normally only accessible through the terminAL bus (ROT). If it is
connected to the Processor Module top plane it is then only accessible
through the top plane bus (TOP).
1.0.2 The universal Memory MOdule consists of t~o completely independant
m~mory modules which each use 8 16-Pin so~eted ~OS RAMS. The mOdules
may be configured with 16K R~MS or~anized as 16,384 X 1 bit or 4K RAMS
organized as 4,096 X 1 bit giving the following Universal Memory
Module standard sizes.
8K 0 2 4K modul~s
16k 0 1 16k module, 1 vacant module
32k 0 2 16k modules

1.0.3 The memory mapping of the Universal Memo~y Module is unrestricted
with the following exceptions:
o In BOT or TOP mode the memory in the memory mapped 1/0 space
I/O space (32K-36K) can only be used with an enhanced version of
the Processor Module.

o In BOT mode the module can overlay the 0-64K space occupied by TOP
Read only memory (ROM) or Random access memory (RAM) in which case
the BOT access is obtained by firmware inhibiting the TOP me~ory
-this can only be done if the TOP memory is ~ddressable as all RAM or
all ROM.

o In TOP mode the module can occupy the same 0-64K space as TOP ROM,
if none is present a second Universal ~emory Module addressed as ~OM
(but functioning as RAM) may also be used.
o In TOP mode Bank Switching is possible using an enhanced
v~rsion of the Pracessor Module and the 16K or 32K confiqurations of
Universal Memory module. This permits up to 4 memory modules to
the overlay the 0-64K TOP memory space. Bank Switching can only be
used with an enhanced version of the Processor Module.
