DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 22 HOW TO DO IT -- PC CARDS Start here when you have completely finished wiring your pc card. You are now in the PC program. You must now generate 4 plot files. The 2 outer planes (component and solder) and the 2 inner planes (power and ground). You should try to use the following form for plot filenames. End the name with "C" for component, "S" for solder, "P" for power, and "G" for ground. To generate the component and solder plane plots get on the appropriate side and say W. Then type the filename. Now for inner planes. If you want anything but clearances in your inner planes, STOP and see RPH. Otherwise you now type INNER to the extended scanner. This deletes all lines and points except dip pins and feed throughs, and sets the pad type for these to 2 (clearances). Currently the plane connections aren't indicated by the absence of pads. To make the inner plane plots, use the extended mode PPLOT command, which asks for the plane number, then the filename. The plane number is the same as the one you gave to attach to the plane in the first place. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 23 MORE PC CARDS -- PCP Now you have 4 plot files (if not see RPH). Now run PCP. The following indicates program prompts in upper case, then a description of your response in loser case. It is suggested that you run PCP on a teletype when doing a TRW run, and save the output for transfering to a planning sheet. When program starts up, it asks: OUTPUT MODE(S)? If you respond "?", the following list will be typed: CHAR EFFECT ? TYPE THIS LIST C CALCOMP OUTPUT F FR80 OUTPUT X XGP OUTPUT G GO DIRECTLY TO X PROG W SPOOL X OUTPUT, "R XS" WHEN ALL DONE S ENABLE RESTART CAPABILITY R ROTATE PLOT T TRW OUTPUT M MAP RETICLES A ADD SYMBOL DEFINITIONS D MAKE DRILL TAPE FIRST TIME THROUGH You may type any of the characters in the first column all on one line, the program will warn you of any conflicting modes. Here is a brief description of each of the modes: ? Obvious C This causes a plot to be made on the calcomp plotter. F This causes a file to be written on the current area with the extension 'F80'. This file when copied onto a magtape (see description, end of page), will produce FR80 microfilm of the pc card. X Instead of driving the calcomp plotter, plotter commands go into a file with the extension 'PLX'. This file when processed by the 'X' program will produce XGP output of your pc card. G This specifies that when the first plot is done, the program should link directly to the 'X' program, which will then produce the XGP output. W This causes output to the XGP to be generated and 'X' to be run, but 'X' writes its output on the disk again. Later when you have run all your cards through 'PCP', you run 'XS' which finds, prints on the XGP, and deletes all the temporary files. This saves time and paper on the XGP. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 23-1 S This command, intended for use exclusively with calcomp plotter output, plots a cross 2" above the intial pen position, and during the processing of the plot, accasionally saves a core image (it will ask how often to do this). If for some reason you must start over, mearly position the bullseye on the pen carraige over the cross and run file called "PLTSAV.DMP", which will continue the plot from the place where it left off. R This will cause the plot to be rotated 90 degrees CCW. T This will write a file with the extension 'MAG'. When copied to a magtape (see next page) the tape can be sent to TRW in L.A. and plotted on film on their gerber plotter system. This also generates a 'LOG' file which should be XGP'd and stuck in the plot log book. M When this mode is selected, the program will ask for pad types which want to be the same wheel pos as another pad type, or the same as some position not accessible by pad types directly. A This causes PCP to accept extra symbol definitions other than the standard ones. D A drill tape file is made from the first file processed. If you select both "T" and "D" modes, the trw output will be a drill plot. That is, no lines, text, or pads are drawn and donut pads are plotted at the location of each drill hole. If you selected the "T" output mode: and "M" mode, If you have a pad type in your pc card, and you want to use one of the standard reticles (i.e. nortronics target), this allows you to map the pad type into a different wheel position than usual. If you answer "Y", you are asked the following: RETICLE MAPPING LIVES FOR EVER IN THIS CORE IMAGE! PAD TYPE NUMBER? Here you respond with the pad type number which you set in the pc prog. If you respond , you get out. WHEEL POS? Now you tell which wheel position you wish selected for this pad type. Then you loop back to the pad type prompt. and "A" mode, If you are using any characters not in the TRW standard character set (see RPH for character set), say Y. If you say Y, the following DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 23-2 will be asked: SYMBOL DEFINITIONS LIVE FOR EVER (IN THIS CORE IMAGE). BE SURE TO MAKE A SKETCH OF THE SYMBOL INDICATING THE "D" CODE. D60? Type the single character for this code (no ). Any previously assigned codes will be printed followed their character, then you will be asked to assign the first unassigned code. Type the character you used when you placed the text in the PC prog. D61? This will continue until you answer . If you selected the "F" output mode: AT FR80 SCALE OF 3.7 FRAME IS ABOUT 22X17. FR80 SCALE*10 ? This is exactly what it seems, if your card is somewhat smaller than this, you may use a larger scale. Use AID to calculate the appropriate scale. will get you 37 (scale of 3.7). FR80 FRAME IS 22X17. The frame size will be printed if you give a scale other than 37. SCALE FACTOR? Scale of 1 is real size (you get this if you type alone). Don't use anything else if you are making a TRW plot or an FR80 plot. This may be used to make detail plots. POSITIVE X,Y OFFSET (IN INCHES, DECIMAL POINT OK!)? This must be used to generate TRW plot tapes, and CINCH drill tapes. Both systems have 0,0 at the lower left. The standard film we are using at TRW is 24 x 20 inches. Thus the offset should be 12,10. The CINCH drill frame size we will use is 20 x 20 inches, so use 10,10 for drill tape. If is typed, and you are making a TRW plot, 12,10 will be used. Otherwise 0,0 is used. This offset is not used for FR80 output. FR80 output is centered automatically. The preceeding information is asked only once every time the program is started. The rest is asked in a loop starting here. When done type ^C (call). FILENAME? Type the plot filename, default extension is "PCP". CHAR "M" HEIGHT SCALE CODE (IN MILS) 0 M50 120 1 M51 2 M52 3 M53 DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 23-3 4 M54 This controls the character size, the typeout actually stops at the end of each line, suppresses text of this scale. If this is a TRW tape, the height must be divisible by 15. Otherwise it must be divisible by 5. This number is the height and spacing of the characters of that scale. Scale 0 (M50) is used for the messages, which are plotted across the bottom of the film. If you respond with altmode, the rest of the char. size promts are suppressed. PUT PEN AT 0,0. LINES, TEXT, AND PADS MAX X= 0.000 MIN X= 0.000 MAX Y= 0.000 MIN Y= 0.000 This information is calculated from the plot file, and does not include the card outline. If any of the numbers are abnormally large, STOP and get RPH immediately. If this is a TRW plot tape the following is asked: OPERATOR MESSAGES, 40 CHARS PER LINE (MAX). END WITH . STANFORD A.I. PROJECT. This puts messages on the tape which are typed to the operator at TRW at this point in the plot. These messages are also plotted across the bottom of the film for identification purposes. The first line always identifies us, subsequent lines should identify the plane number (0 to 4, top to bottom) and what it is. End with a blank line. If you specified "D" mode: TYPE X,Y OF HOLES TO ADD TO DRILL TAPE DECIMAL POINT OK, OFFSET WILL BE ADDED. Then loop asking the question: X,Y OF HOLE? Until you type just return. The hole are placed on the front of the drill tape in the order in which you typed them. If this is not a drill plot (pads for drill holes only), the following question is asked (unless this is a TRW run): SKIP PLOTTING OF ALL PADS? This is only useful on calcomp for overlaying plots with the same pads. Now the program will spew out various things about how far along it is. If the card number was available when the plot files were written, it was passed in the file. If not, the following question will be asked: DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 23-4 CARD NUMBER? Here you type the number of the card you want to use. If you type 0 or just , no card will be done. Here progress on the card is indicated. Now the program will type: ACTUAL MAX X = 0.000 MIN X = 0.000 MAX Y = 0.000 MIN Y = 0.000 These numbers include the card outline as well as lines, text, etc. They must be copied to the TRW planning sheet if this is a TRW plot. Then it says: PLOT DONE! And here we loop back to the plot filename prompt! Unless the "G" output mode was selected, in which case we go to the 'X' prog which runs automatically. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 24 MORE PC CARDS -- AFTER PCP At completion of plots, the following command should be typed to generate an FR80 tape: COPY MTA0:FOO_STANFO.F80[DAT,RPH],,STANFO.F80[DAT,RPH] To punch paper tape from an XXX.DRL file, run TD[F,RPH] and type the filename XXX, this is a separate program because the tape must be punched in binary. To make a TRW magtape from your 'MAG' files, type: COPY MTA0:/EVEN_XXC.MAG,XXS.MAG,XXP.MAG,XXG.MAG,XXD.MAG Were the file names are the appropriate files you have just generated. The order is not important, but should agree with the file numbers on the planning sheets and any messages on the tape itself. You should also XGP all the 'LOG' files and put the file #'s on them. fin DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 25 RUNNING WL How to run the wire lister or Easy little steps for muddy little feet Commands are single letters with or without control or meta. The command may be preceeded by any of the following: DEC NODEC (NOTHING) (nothing)  ONE ALT control  TWO ALTS Meta  THREE ALTS control-meta ˆ doesn't matter If more than one of the above appear, then all will satisfy command. In all but the "I" command, if only one wire list exists, the "WIRE LIST ID?" prompt will be skipped. Commands: ˆE EXIT. ˆ@ SAME AS "XDSKIN". D Enter DIP SUB-MODE. See next page for commands in DIP SUB-MODE. _ Set default wire list id. This is the wire list which is used for all commands requiring single wire lists. The 2 wire list id's are "D" and "PC". _ Toggle wire list id's. (switch from D to PC or back). I OR I ASKS: FILENAME? You may type a filename (default extension is ='WD' and ='WPC') or @filename (default extension is "DIR"). The format of a "DIR" file will be explained later. If you type "" you get wire list with id "D". If you type "" you get the wire list with id "PC". The file(s) are read, signal names are compared and the wire list is built. After the file name you may type a module location which takes effect for any dips or pins which do not already specify a module location. You may also type variable settings enclosed DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 25-1 in parentheses, separated by commas. See the end of this writeup for exact information. Example: IFOO 1AE3 (N0,M0) 1AE4 (N6,M1) This reads file FOO.WD twice, once (called slice 1) for module location 1AE3 with N=0 and M=0, and once for location 1AE4 with N=6 and M=1. The file(s) are read, signal names are compared and the wire list is built. I Asks: FILENAME? Same options as reading 'WD' or 'WPC' files, default extension is 'WEQ'. This file contains some number of signal names on each line, seperated by tabs. The effect of this file is that each line is treated as a wire. So you may cause certain wires to be grounded or connected to HI, or even connected to other wires. Please note: The card location of the wire list you wish to affect should appear with the filename, just like reading a wire list. U Asks: CARD(NLLN)? if necessary This copies the dips from the default wire list (a logic wire list), to the other wire list (a pc wire list). The locations are used for matching. N OR N Asks: WIRE LIST TITLE? The string you type will be used on listings involving this wire list. L Asks: CARD (NLLN)? if necessary This lists a wire list onto a file. The default extension is 'WL'. All sorts of neat things are indicated on the wire list, the best way to find out what they are is to make one. Any unnamed signals are given unique numbers which are printed preceeded by a "#". L Asks: CARD (LN)? if necessary This makes the following summaries: Summarizes all dip types used in this wire list DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 25-2 totaling the different body names and total number of sections used. UNGENERATED SIGNALS UNUSED SIGNALS Each of these catagories is listed, only one of the names of a wire fitting the catagory is listed. The default extension is 'WLS'. L Asks: CARD (NLLN)? if necessary Then asks for a filename. The default extension is 'WLU'. Writes a listing file which is sorted by dip number. Under each dip number is listed the signals connected to each pin. At the end of the listing, the edge connector fingers are listed in alphabtical order along with the signal connected to each. This prints out the following info: LOC DIPTYPE BODY POS FILE For each body followed by: PIN # TYPE HI LOW USE SIGNAL NAME For each pin of body. Then: CONNECTORS PIN FILE SIGNAL NAME For all connector pins. This allows you to find out a signal name from the LOC(PIN #). P or P which asks for signal name Then prints for that the signal name, the information which would be printed for that signal in L. Prints on TTY. P Asks: CARD (LN)? if necessary Then asks: DIP OR CONNECTOR LOCATION? DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 25-3 Then prints info for that loc which you would have gotten in a L listing. Prints on TTY. P Asks: SIGNAL NAME? Then does P for this signal for each card currently read in. In addition, if (NODEC) OR ? (DEC) appears in front of the signal name both the hi and low versions of the signal will be printed. This works for P, P, and P. W Asks: CARD (LN)? if necessary This writes a file for input to the PC prog for generating router files which are read by wagner's router prog. The default extension is "WDR". W This writes a back panel wirelist file from all the cards in the default wirelist. The default extension is 'BAC'. B Reads a back panel wire list written with W (default extension is 'BAC'). You may now make back panel listings using ˆX commands. B READS A 'BAC' FILE, BUT ONLY INPUTS FILENAME AND TITLE INFO, AND DIP COUNTS FOR MAKING AN 'MPL' FILE. B Reads a file of the same format as a 'WEQ' file, however default extension is 'BEQ'. It has the same effect on the back panel as a 'WEQ' file has on a card wire list. Except there is no problem with the card location, it applies to the whole back panel. C Asks: CARD (LN)? if necessary Then asks for a filename. The default extension is 'WLC'. The card specified is found in D wire list and PC wire list. The two wire lists are compared and an error listing is produced. Make one to find out the format. The info from C is included in C. C Asks: CARD (LN)? if necessary DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 25-4 This compares D and PC wire list as in C, but it only checks if you have placed the right dip sockets on the pc card for the dips you are using in the logic drawing. Also checks that you have not pre-assigned an illegal connector pin #. This be done only after a L verify has been done with no errors because the kinds of errors found by this check will confuse C. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 26 EXTEND MODE COMMANDS ˆX If any control bits held down asks: Si? Now type a 1 to 6 (or more) letter command possibly preceded by a "-". The meanings of these commands are explained below: A "D" at the left means available in dip sub-mode only, a "B" means available in both top-mode and dip sub-mode, nothing means available only in top mode. B RESIDENT Reads in the dip defintion file at the bottom of free core, and marks the last loc used. now whenever you type ^c start, the dips stay in the core image. All other data in program free storage is cleared. B -RESIDENT Release dips from bottom of core. Now when you type ^c start the dips go away. B DDT Enters DDT if loaded. B SAVE Asks for a filename, (default extension is 'DMP') then executes a swap uuo to save the current core image. If DSKIN is in progress, it is suspended during the save and restarted (using DSKCON) after- wards. However, when the saved core image is run again, the DSKIN is not continued. It may be continued manually by a DSKCON command. DEC AT DEC NO SWAP UUO IS USED, THE PROGRAM MERELY EXITS TO THE MONITOR AND YOU MAY SAVE IT, THEN START OR RUN IT LATER. B DSKIN Asks for a filename, (default extension is 'TXT') then takes input from there instead of tty. If an error is encountered, input reverts to the tty. B DSKHLD Releases disk input file, remembering where it was. later you can give a DSKCON command to continue. B DSKCON If the last dskin was held by a DSKHLD command or an error, the command causes the file to be reopened and the appropriate chars skipped to get it back where it was. DSKHLD and DSKCON are used by SAVE to get around the fact that the swap uuo does a reset. B DSKSKP If no file open, asks for name and opens it. Reads to the next line feed echoing characters as it goes. Then asks "STOP?". If you respond with "y", then skipping stops and control reverts to who ever had it last. If you respond with altmode then skipping stops and control reverts to tty. Anything else causes then next line to be printed, skipped, and the prompt repeated. DEFPPN Accepts a p,pn to use when none is specified (input only). DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 26-1 -DEFPPN Resets defppn to 0. this is the default. the effect of 0 is that it is used for the p,pn on input unless you are reading filenames from and indirect file. in that case, the p,pn used are those of the indirect file. B CLEAR This command is equivalent to "^C START" except that it doesn't flush DSKIN. STATUS Prints out current program status, like SPACES, REFERENCES, PAGE, EXTENT, and default wire ID. SPACES Makes spaces in signal names significant. Affects the I and I commands only. -SPACES Spaces in signal names are no longer significant except when they seperate 2 digits. This is the default. REFERENCE This enables the feature in 'WL' files which causes all signal names for a wire to appear in each alphabetical sorting of each name, but only one of them will have the pin information printed. All the others will print "_____ REFERENCE" next to the signal with which the pins appear. -REFERENCE Disable references in 'WL' file. Signal names appear only once, with the pins. IERROR Enable output of errors on wirelist file input to go to a file. When you do I, I, I, and B you are asked for a filename (default extension is 'WIE'). This file contains the filename of the file being processed and any errors which cannot be indicated later. If you respond with to the WIE filename prompt, output will go to TTY as if no IERROR command had been done. -IERROR Disable input errors going to file, they will go to the TTY instead. This is the default. PART Write a "PARTITION" file, default extension is 'PAR'. This is the file for input to Wagner's partitioning program. SIGSUM Write signal summary listing for entire wire list. Default extension is 'WSS'. These files may be merged by the program "M.DMP[WL,RPH]" to form a master signal summary ('MSS'). ERRSUM This writes a file (default extension is 'LES') which has each run of some of the categories from the wire list summary output. The difference is that this is a binary file which goes back into D and allows you to flash the runs from each DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 26-2 error category. CONSUM Write connector pins needed summary. This lists signals in same format as SIGSUM but only those which need to get from one card to another, but don't. Default extension is 'WCS'. WLSSEL LIKE L, EXCEPT THAT YOU ARE ASKED ABOUT EACH CATEGORY BEFORE IT IS WRITTEN INTO THE FILE. BSSEL LIKE BSUM, EXCEPT ASKS ABOUT EACH CATEGORY. MAKALL ASKS FOR ONE NAME AND POSSIBLE A CARD NAME, THEN DOES L, L, L (WRITES 3 FILES). BMAKALL LIKE MAKALL, BUT DOES BLIST, AND BSUM. UMAKE WRITES 'UML' FILE FOR INPUT TO "D" PROGRAM WHICH REPLACES ALL EDGE PINS WITH GENERATED "U" PINS. STUFF WRITES 'STF' FILE WHICH TELLS FOR EACH DIP TYPE ON A BOARD WHERE IT IS USED (WHAT LOCATION). LPART WRITES 'PRT' FILE WHICH TELLS FOR EACH DIP TYPE ON A BOARD WHAT ITS PART NUMBER IS AND HOW MANY ARE USED. UML Prints a module map for the card you select. Also prints edge signals in boxes for each paddle. Default extension is 'UML' TEST Asks: CARD (LN)? if necessary This writes a card tester file for P. Petit's simulator. The default extension is "TST". ROUTE Asks: CARD (LN) ? if necessary This routes all runs on the specified card and then produces a listing (default extension 'WLR'). The listing is like a 'WL' listing except that the pins are ordered and a pseudo Z-level is indicated in an extra column. ZLEVEL Asks: CARD (LN) ? if necessary This routes all runs on the specified card and then produces a listing (default extension 'WLZ'). The listing is 4 from-to listings. First is PWR and GND Z-level 1 and Z-level 2. Then signals, Z-level 1 and Z-level 2. BLIST Write back panel wirelist, default extension is 'BL'. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 26-3 BSUM Write back panel wirelist summary, similar to 'WLS' for normal wirelist. Default extension is 'BS'. BPRINT Asks for a signal name, and prints the run on the tty. DI (NODEC) OR ? (DEC) works here as in "P" commands. SIMPLE Writes back panel information necessary for running the DEC wirelist package over the back panel. ASIMPLE WRITES SAME INFO AS SIMPLE COMMAND, BUT ASSIGNS REAL PIN NAMES IN PLACE OF "U" PIN NAMES. REDAC Writes a REDAC-compatible wirelist. First, the REDAC master library is read (filename LIBRY.RDC) automatically. If the library is not found, you are asked for the correct filename. Respond with if none exists. WL then asks: CARD (NLLN)? if necessary Then asks for a filename. The default extension is 'CON'. If terminators are discovered in the wirelist, you will be asked whether or not you want them in the REDAC output. This writes a pc card interconnection list in the correct format for input to REDAC. STRAPS Reads a 'C2C' file which has 2 card locations on each line seperated by a tab, specifying which cards have their back strap connectors strapped together. A special format allows each paddle to be mentioned explicitly so you can strap different paddles in different directions. An attempt is made to look at each wire which has a back connector on it. If it has no name, lose. Otherwise find the same named wire on the other card. If found then try to match edge pins on this wire with edge pins on that wire. A match occurs if they are the same pin, or if one or both are "wild" specified pins. This allows errors to be avoided when only one card is placed. CSTRAP Asks for "CARD nlln" if necessary (should be). Then writes a file with the default extension 'DAT'. The file contains the back connector locations which are gotten by taking a wild back connector from this card and finding the matching connector on the other card. This allows pre- placement of pins which have been previously assigned on one of a pair of cards. The file is suitable for reading with the "IPINS" command in the drawing prog. EXTENT This is the number of paddles to assume make it to the back panel for card with no location. It is initialized to 4. -EXTENT This resets the extent to 4 (the default). PAGE This allows you to set the number of lines per page to assume when making listings, in case output will not go to LPT. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 26-4 -PAGE Resets page length to 52 (the default, to allow for spooler or other headings). OLD Sets mode for reading "old" format DIPS.DIP files. -OLD Clears mode set by OLD. ECL Sets default for ECL dips during dip definition. -ECL Clears ECL default. TTL Sets default for TTL dips during dip definition. -TTL Clears TTL default. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 27 DIP SUB-MODE ˆE Exit to TOP MODE (commands on previous page). ˆ@ SAME AS "XDSKIN". ˆI Input dip file into internal structure. If filename is omitted, last one used for I or W command is used. Name starts as "DIPS.DIP[]". Default extension is always 'DIP'. ˆW Write internal list into file. Filename same as for I. ˆN Change (or just print if no filename arg) the default dip filename. ˆL Asks: FILENAME? Default extension is 'LSD'. This makes a listing of all dip definitions. ˆD Delete definition of . If is blank you get DDT. ˆP Print definition of on TTY. ˆR Rename dip with name . Asks for new name. ˆS SET PART NUMBER STRING FOR DIP . ˆC Copy definition of . Asks: NEW DIP NAME? If it already exists, you are asked: ALREADY EXISTS, REPLACE? Then you are asked: LOADING CONVERSION FACTOR? The format is or /. This is the scale which is applied to all loadings of the old dip definition to get the new one. ˆM Modify definition of . If no definition exists for this dip name, it TYPES: NEW NAME # OF PINS? Answer with . DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 27-1 If a definition already exists, types out the number of pins. Then a heading line is typed and echoing is turned off. It tabs to the PIN # column and waits for a command. Now you may type: Types the information for pin . Types the information for pin then tabs to the "TYPE" column. You can now change any or all of the data items for this pin. Type to fill in the rest of the line with the old stuff. Type to get to the next column. Bad format is filtered out and only good data is echoed. To leave a column unchanged, just to the next column without typing anything. Asks for a new DIPNAME. You can either edit another dip or get back to DIP SUB-MODE by typing . A Types pin automatically when you type for pin . You get out of automatic mode by typing or reaching last pin. T L U P S Automatically copies all columns to the left of the TYPE, LOAD, USE, PS, and SECTION columns respectively when you type the command above. In all the above ALTMODE is equivalent to . Legal TYPES are: I input OP pull up output IS input with load sharing VCC or P power O output GND or G ground OT tri-state output NC or N no connection OC open collector output You may prefix any of the above types with the letter "T" for TTL or "E" for ECL. YOU MAY FOLLOW AN I OR IS WITH "P" IF THIS PIN HAS AN INTERNAL PULLUP OR PULLDOWN. YOU MAY FOLLOW AN OUTPUT (O, OC, OT, OP) BY "F" IF IT IS A FLIP-FLOP OUTPUT. If the X commands ECL or TTL have been performed, the prefix "E" or "T" is assumed automatically. With no prefix, the pin definition is neutral with respect to TTL vs ECL. The USE column is for comments such as "S1" or "S4" on an ALU dip. PS is an arbitrary number which you assign to identify pins that share load. Give the same number to all pins that share with eachother. SECTION is for defining the sections of the dip and for specifying equivalent pins in other sections. The section information is: /
. The equivalent pins in different sections are identified by having equal logical pin numbers.

The first part of the slicespec allows you to specify the for any unspecified dip locations. In addition the filespec for the indirect file may include a construct which will be used on any filespec's in the file which don't have their own. The rest is for the special construct in signal names which we will call expressions. The sets the lower bound of values to , the sets the upper bound. The sets variable to . The format of a signal name which uses an expression is as follows: ::= ( ( )* ( [ ] ) )* ( )* ::= | | ::= ( , )* ::= ( "{" "}" )* ( ) ::= | ::= | ::= "(" ")" | - | + | A-Z | ::= + | - ::= / | * ::= 0-9 | 0-9 DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 28-1 The "()" pair in the primary definition may be replaced by a "<>" pair, but you must close with the same thing with which you opened. If = the expression is evaluated. Then the thing in [] is replaced by the I'th string (where value of =I). If I less than or equal to zero, or I greater than the number of strings, the thing in brackets is replaced with null. If = the first expression is evaluated. If the value is non-zero, the string contain in the following "{}" pair is the result of the expr. Otherwise, the evaluation of the expression after the "}" is done and so on until on becomes true or the "]" is reached. If = the thing in [] is replaced by the decimal value of the expression with leading zeroes added to make the length of the result equal to the length of the longest variable in the expression. The following is the format of a "STRAP" file, it tells which paddles of which cards are strapped together: {}* ::= | ::= {} ::= ::= 0-15 ::= {} ::= A-Z ::= A-Z ::= 1-63 ::= A-Z SEMANTICS: The construct is used if the back strap connectors of both cards correspond on a one-to-one basis.

TO WHICH YOU MAY TYPE EITHER FILNAM.EXT[P,PN] DEFAULT EXT IS 'WD' OR @FILNAM.EXT[P,PN] DEFAULT EXT IS 'DIR' IF THE "@" CONSTRUCT IS USED, ANOTHER FILENAME IS SCANNED FROM THE FILE, AND SO ON UNTIL END OF FILE (BLANK LINES ARE IGNORED). FILENAMES ARE GOBBLED AND THE FILES READ UNTIL YOU TYPE A BLANK FILENAME FROM THE TTY. IT THEN ASKS: REF FILENAME? YOU NOW MAY TYPE THE OUTPUT FILENAME (DEFAULT EXT IS 'REF'). IF BLANK NAME IS TYPED, OUTPUT GOES TO THE TTY. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 33 MISCELANEOUS DRAWING PITFALLS: 1. LINES WHICH APPEAR TO TOUCH MAY NOT INTERSECT IN THE DATA STRUCTURE. TO INSURE CONTINUITY YOU MUST EITHER: A. USE THE "-" METHOD TO HAVE A LINE YOU ARE DRAWING INTERSECT A POINT YOU CAN SEE. B. USE THE "A" OR "A" METHOD TO ATTACH TO A POINT OR LINE RESP. (IN CASE OF DIFFICULTY, LEARN THE "B" AND "B" FUNCTIONS.) 2. LABELS (LOGICAL NAMES) MAY APPEAR NEAR A WIRE AND NOT BE ASSOCIATED WITH IT. TO FORCE ASSOCIATION, YOU MUST: A. GET ON THE POINT AT THE END OF THE WIRE AND PLACE THE TEXT THERE. MOVE THE WIRE IF THE TEXT GETS GARBAGED BY SOME NEARBY OBJECT. 3. USE "XDANGLE" TO FIND MOST ERRORS OF FORM 1 AND 2. (YOU MIGHT USE THE "A" FUNCTION TO ATTACH SOME TEXT TO THE NEAREST POINT) PC CARD LAYOUT RESTRICTIONS (BY MCGUIRE): THE FOLLOWING LAYOUT TECHINQUES ARE TO BE CONSIDERED MANDITORY UNTIL PROVEN OTHERWISE: THE STANDARD STEP SIZE (50 MILS) WILL BE USED IN ALL PC CARDS EXCEPT FOR SPECIAL PURPOSE ONES. THIS ALLOWS EXACTLY ONE WIRE TO PASS DIRECTLY BETWEEN TWO PADS. WIRES BETWEEN PADS SHOULD BE WITHIN 15 DEGREES OF STRAIGHT THROUGH TO ALLOW 18 MILS OF CLEARANCE BETWEEN WIRE AND PAD, 30 DEGREES GIVES 15 MILS OF CLEARANCE, STRAIGHT THROUGH GIVES 20 MILS OF CLEARANCE. WIRES BETWEEN PADS ARE ALLOWED ONLY ON THE TOP (DIP INSERTION) SIDE OF PC CARDS OWING TO TROUBLE WITH SOLDER BRIDGING ON THE BOTTOM. SPACING BETWEEN WIRES MAY BE THE MINIMUM, THAT IS 50 MILS. CONSIDER PADS AND FEED THROUGH TO BE 52 MILS IN DIAMETER AND WIRES TO BE 10 MILS WIDE (AFTER ETCHING). IF A FEED THROUGH IS TO BE PLACED BETWEEN TWO WIRES THE WIRES MUST BE AT LEAST 100 MILS APART IN ORDER THAT THE 20 MILS CLEARANCE BE MAINTAINED AROUND THE FEED THROUGH. PLANE DESIGNATIONS: IN ORDER TO AVOID CONFUSION THE FOLLOWING PLANE DESIGNATIONS WILL BE USED IN ALL PC CARDS: PLANE USE 0 GROUND PLANE. 1 FIRST POWER PLANE(USE THIS IF ONLY ONE) 2 SECOND POWER PLANE(USE THIS AND 1 IF TWO POWER PLANES) 3 THIRD POWER PLANE. DSK:DRAW;SUDS 7 Page 33-1 IF SOMEBODY NEEDS MORE THAN 4 PLANES, HE IS CRAZY AND SHOULD SEE RPH FOR TREATEMENT. EXTERIOR PLANES!!!!!!!! THE SIDE OF THE BOARD INTO WHICH DIPS ARE INSERTED WILL BE REFERED TO AS THE TOP. THE OTHER SIDE WILL BE REFERED TO AS THE OTHER SIDE.
