MA17503
RADIATION HARD MIL-STD-1750A INTERRUPT UNIT
The MA17503 Interrupt Unit is a component of the MAS281
BLOCK DIAGRAM
chip set. Other chips in the set include MA17501 Execution Unit
and the MA17502 Control Unit. Also available is the peripheral
MA31751 Memory Management/Block Protection Unit. The
lnterrupt Unit, in conjunction with these additional chips,
implements the full MIL-STD-1750A Instruction Set
Architecture.
The MA17503 - consisting of the Pending Interrupt
Register, Mask Register, Interrupt Priority Encoder, Fault
Register, Timer A, Timer B, Trigger-Go Counter, Bus Fault
Timer, and DMA interface - handles all interrupt fault, and DMA
interfacing, in addition to providing all three hardware timers.
The Interrupt Unit also implements 26 of the MIL-STD-1750A
specified l/O commands. Table 1 provides brief signal
definitions.
The MA17503 is offered in dual-in-line, flatpack or leadless
chip carrier packaging. Screening and packaging options are
described at the end of this document.
