INTERNAL REGISTERS

The COM20020 contains eight internal registers. Tables 2 and 3 illustrate the COM20020 register map. Reserved locations should not be accessed. All undefined bits are read as undefined and must be written as logic "0".

Interrupt Mask Register (IMR)

The COM20020 is capable of generating an interrupt signal when certain status bits become true. A write to the IMR specifies which status bits will be enabled to generate an interrupt. The bit positions in the IMR are in the same position as their corresponding status bits in the Status Register and Diagnostic Status Register. A logic "1" in a particular position enables the corresponding interrupt. The Status bits capable of generating an interrupt include the Receiver Inhibited bit, New Next ID bit, Excessive NAK bit, Reconfiguration Timer bit, and Transmitter Available bit. No other Status or Diagnostic Status bits can generate an interrupt.

The five maskable status bits are ANDed with their respective mask bits, and the results are ORed to produce the interrupt signal. An RI or TA interrupt is masked when the corresponding mask bit is reset to logic "0", but will reappear when the corresponding mask bit is set to logic "1" again, unless the interrupt status condition has been cleared by this time. A RECON interrupt is cleared when the "Clear Flags" command is issued. An EXCNAK interrupt is cleared when the "POR Clear Flags" command is issued. A New Next ID interrupt is cleared by reading the Next ID Register. The Interrupt Mask Register defaults to the value 0000 0000 upon hardware reset.

Data Register

This read/write 8-bit register is used as the channel through which the data to and from the RAM passes. The data is placed in or retrieved from the address location presently specified by the address pointer. The contents of the Data Register are undefined upon hardware reset. In case of READ operation, the Data Register is

Tentative ID Register

The Tentative ID Register is a read/write 8-bit register accessed when the Sub Address Bits are set up accordingly (please refer to the Configuration Register). The Tentative ID Register can be used while the node is on-line to build a network map of those nodes existing on the network. It minimizes the need for operator interaction with the network. The node determines the existence of other nodes by placing a Node ID value in the Tentative ID Register and waiting to see if the Tentative ID bit of the Diagnostic Status Register gets set. The network map developed by this method is only valid for a short period of time, since nodes may join or depart from the network at any time. When using the Tentative ID feature, a node cannot detect the existence of the next logical node to which it passes the token. The Next ID Register will hold the ID value of that node. The Tentative ID Register defaults to the value 0000 0000 upon hardware reset only.

Node ID Register

The Node ID Register is a read/write 8-bit register accessed when the Sub Address Bits are set up accordingly (please refer to the Configuration Register). The Node ID Register contains the unique value which identifies this particular node. Each node on the network must have a unique Node ID value at all times. The Duplicate ID bit of the Diagnostic Status Register helps the user find a unique Node ID. Refer to the Initialization Sequence section for further detail on the use of the DUPID bit. The core of the COM20020 does not wake up until a Node ID other than zero is written into the Node ID Register. During this time, no microcode is executed, no tokens are passed by this node, and no reconfigurations are caused by this node. Once a non-zero NodeID is placed into the Node ID Register, the core wakes up but will not join the network until the TXEN bit of the Configuration Register is set. While the
