The write sample delay field and the xack delay field program the characteristics of the IP conponent interface to the Peripheral Subsystem. See the iAPx 43203 VI..SI Interface Processor Data Sheet, Order Number 171874-001 for details.

If the interrupt inhibit field is a 1 then the IP will inhibit normal function complete interrupts but will continue pass all other interrupts to the AP. If the interrupt inhibit field is 0 then the IP will report successful function completions with interrupts.

IPC State Field -

The IPC state field is used to indicate that the processor has responded to an interprocessor conmunication signal and signalled

the associated Peripheral Subsystem via interrupt. It has the following organization.
