IBM channel to PDP11 interface. [UNIBUS and IBM 360/370]
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6778376
An interface between a UNIBUS and a I/O Channel of the IBM 360/370 computer triplex at SLAC has been designed. IBM calls such a device a Control Unit, and it looks like a tape or a disk drive to the IBM computer. This means that any ordinary batch jobs can transfer data to or from a device connected to a UNIBUS. The programer gets access to the system by a FORTRAN-callable subroutine. This control unit permits bidirectional data transfers at up to 1 MB/s between an IBM 2860 Selector Channel and any DEC PDP11 minicomputer peripheral conforming to IBM GA22-6974 and DEC PDP11 UNIBUS interfacing specifications. The simulator developed to de bug this control unit without using one of the IBM computers is also described. (RWR)
