pcxporter.cpp
Implementation of the Applied Engineering PC Transporter card
Preliminary version by R. Belmont
The PC Transporter is basically a PC-XT on an Apple II card.
Features include:
- V30 CPU @ 4.77 MHz
- 768K of RAM, which defines the V30 address space from 0x00000 to 0xBFFFF
and is fully read/writable by the Apple's CPU.
- Usual XT hardware, mostly inside custom ASICs. There's a discrete
NEC uPD71054 (i8254-compatible PIT) though.
- CGA-compatible video, output to a separate CGA monitor or NTSC-compliant analog
RGB monitor (e.g. the IIgs RGB monitor).
- XT-compatible keyboard interface.
- PC-style floppy controller: supports 360K 5.25" disks and 720K 3.5" disks
- HDD controller which is redirected to a file on the Apple's filesystem
The V30 BIOS is downloaded by the Apple; the Apple also writes text to the CGA screen prior to
the V30's being launched.
The board was developed by The Engineering Department, a company made up mostly of early Apple
engineers including Apple /// designer Dr. Wendall Sander and ProDOS creator Dick Huston.
Software and user documentation at:
http://mirrors.apple2.org.za/Apple%20II%20Documentation%20Project/Interface%20Cards/CPU/AE%20PC%20Transporter/
Notes:
Registers live at CFxx; access CFFF to clear C800 reservation,
then read Cn00 to map C800-CFFF first.
PC RAM from 0xA0000-0xAFFFF is where the V30 BIOS is downloaded,
plus used for general storage by the system.
RAM from 0xB0000-0xBFFFF is the CGA framebuffer as usual.
CF00: PC memory pointer (bits 0-7)
CF01: PC memory pointer (bits 8-15)
CF02: PC memory pointer (bits 16-23)
CF03: read/write PC memory at the pointer and increment the pointer
CF04: read/write PC memory at the pointer and *don't* increment the pointer
TODO:
- A2 probably also can access the V30's I/O space: where's that at? CF0E/CF0F
are suspects...
- There's likely A2 ROM at CnXX and C800-CBFF to support the "Slinky" memory
expansion card emulation function inside one of the custom ASICs. Need to
dump this...
