    Subject: [oc] T80 and IM2
    Top

    Hello friends,
    
    Are there any known problems or timing abberations with the T80 core in 
    IM 2?  I have a design which exhibits the following problem:
    
    * For each interrupt, there is some probability (perhaps 15%) that it 
    goes off to vector FF instead of the proper vector.
    * Probes on the T80 interface shows that Di contains the correct value 
    (34h) in the last cycle M1_n = 0, IORQ_n = 0, but that the CPU then 
    starts fetching bytes from I:FFh instead of I:34h.
    
    I have tried artificially extend the time during with Di is "driven" for 
    an INTAK by one cycle; no effect.  "Driven" here means that the 
    interrupting I/O device -- a PIO model -- puts a value other than FFh on 
    its output; I have adopted the convention that all devices output FFh 
    when they would be tristated on a real system; the outputs are then all 
    ANDed together to form the Di input to the CPU.
