The invention discloses the external unit bus that is used for being coupled to transmission data between the external unit of principal computer, comprising used instrument and method.Can well understand the present invention for making, in the following description, provide a large amount of specific details, as optional network specific digit, register, address, sequential, signal and form etc.But to those skilled in the art, clearly, implementing can not need these specific details when of the present invention.Under the other situation,, some well-known circuit and equipment are then represented with block scheme for fear of the present invention is beyonded one's depth.
Referring to Fig. 1, the preferred embodiments of the present invention have wherein been provided.A plurality of external units with numeral 11 to 16 Lai Biao Chi, are coupled to principal computer 10 by single cable 17.In this preferred embodiment, all devices is by babyphone socket and principal computer communication, and unitor done following distribution: top power (tip-power), annular-data (ring-data) and ring set-recurrence power (sleeve-power refurn).High level signal (1) is minimum to be 2.4 volts, and low level signal (0) is up to 0.8 volt.Although wish in a preferred embodiment of the invention to use unit cable, other communication device also can use as broadband method, fibre system and infrared signal.
Bus among the present invention supports that (key table of this equipment shows a symbol or a kind of function to encoding device, as keyboard 14), (the corresponding opertaing device of this equipment is (as mouse type scaler 11 or 12 for equipment relatively, display highlighting move can any point be starting point) and absolute device (a constant direct relation being arranged, between the display position of this equipment and the device location) as sketching board 13.
This system also allows the extended address equipment networking, and extended address equipment is shared public hardware jumper address, but particular device is also had unique address, and principal computer needed to differentiate this address before this equipment of visit.For example, suppose that instrument can be coupled to principal computer, and controlled by principal computer.In this case, all instrument all have identical mounting hardware wire jumper address.The principal computer of ground floor is in order to choose instrument, as long as select this hardware jumper address simply.At this moment, all instrument all are in disarmed state.If principal computer is sent out a signal to a certain instrument, and the extended address of this signal and instrument coupling, then this instrument is just become effective status by this principal computer.Extended address is an identification code, and in a preferred embodiment, extended address is 64 bytes.As long as principal computer provides extended address, the equipment with this address promptly enters effective status.The order of being sent out to the instrument address is later on all carried out by this equipment, and needn't all provide extended address at every turn.Effectively instrument is carried out all orders to the instrument address, and invalid equipment then is in passive state.Invalid for effective extended address equipment is become, as long as principal computer provides the extended address of another extended address equipment, it is become effectively, it is invalid simultaneously former effective equipment to be become.Suppose anyly can all be applicable to the present networks design proposal by the equipment of principal computer control, as electric light, electric furnace, spray irrigation system and telephone answering machine etc.Suppose the hardware jumper address that has another extended address equipment in this system at least, this address will be used for system protection or User Recognition.For example, a certain equipment on this address can have an extended address, has only after system user provides this extended address, and system could work.In other cases, some may require principal computer to provide the extended address of other safety equipment before operating in separately and carrying out.These safety equipment are as " key ", are used for some operation of pinning total system or carrying out in system.
In addition, the present invention has kept software address section 16 for network application.Keep the software address section and be when having identical external unit to be coupled on the bus used.For example, if be coupled not only mouse type scaler on the bus, principal computer distributes new address for each mouse type scaler, and these addresses just are placed on the software address section.
Although provided the special case that is coupled to each type equipment on the bus, may not have only a kind of by every kind equipment for addresses distributed.For example the sketching board pen is a kind of absolute device, also be absolute device and touch video screen, and it has identical fix command address with sketching board.At this moment, principal computer will be given the new address of each devices allocation in the software address section.
In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the address assignment of a plurality of external units is as follows:
Address device type example
0000(0) extended address equipment safety system, user ID
0001(1) extended address equipment instrument
0010(2) encoding device keyboard

…… …… ……
1111(15) software address addressing same external equipment
Those skilled in the art will recognize, can also give other address of these devices allocation, the numerical digit of these addresses can be than Duoing among the embodiment or lacking.
In this preferred embodiment, all external units all have four registers to be used for receiving and sending data.To each equipment, say that register 3 and tin register 3 have comprised the status information such as device address, handling procedure information.All the other registers all are data registers, and except that listening register 2, these registers are task equipments, listen register 2 to comprise the extended address of extended address equipment or the equipment Proprietary Information of software address addressing unit.
In this preferred embodiment of the present invention, three types communication is arranged, i.e. order, data and omnidistance signal on the external bus.Order is sent to external unit by principal computer; Data are sent to external unit or are sent to principal computer by external unit by principal computer; Omnidistance signal is the special system-wide information that is sent to.
In the preferred embodiment, data are by the low level time of each bit and the rate code of high level time.The bit boundary definition is the negative edge on the bus.Zero-code is such bit, and its low level time is greater than high level time, shown in Fig. 2 bit 20." 1 " then is defined as such bit, its low level time less than high level time, shown in Fig. 2 bit 21.In this preferred embodiment, start bit is defined as " 1 ", position of rest is " 0 ", position of rest does not have extra negative edge to define the bit time.Position of rest is used for the termination of processing procedure on the synchronous bus.
The bit cycle of command signal and low speed data transmission is approximately 100 microseconds ± 30%.The bit of high speed data transfer is 50 microseconds ± 1%.The form of data processing be start bit (1) be thereafter can reach 256 data bit, be position of rest at last, when using other communication device, then can adopt other signal format.
Order can only be sent by principal computer.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, three kinds of orders are arranged: say, listen and zero clearing.As shown in Figure 6, be the beginning of directive command, provided the prompting pulse earlier, the prompting pulse is produced for low level sends in the cycle at " T-attn " by bus by principal computer.In this preferred embodiment, the T-attn cycle is approximately the 560-1040 microsecond.After the prompting pulse is synchronizing pulse, and synchronizing pulse is in order to start bus timing.Continue to use behind the synchronizing pulse and do the primary timing reference point of order.After the order position of rest (being " 0 " in the present embodiment).Behind the position of rest, if there is not the services request of miscellaneous equipment, bus recovery is to its normal high level state.
In this preferred embodiment, order is one 8 place values.This order contains 4 device address sections, stipulates the mounting hardware wire jumper address (address as mouse type scaler is 0011) of required external unit.Thereafter two is command bit, is two bit register address fields at last, and it provides a special register R0-R3 in the selected external unit for the treatment of appointment.In this preferred embodiment, command code is as follows:
Command code
Zero clearing 01
Listen 10
Say 11
Say that order makes selected equipment that its data are passed to principal computer, listen order to make selected equipment receive and deposit its register in from the data of principal computer.The zero clearing order all has effect to each equipment by the specific installation definition, and it can be used for the register zero clearing or all keys on the keyboard are resetted so that send again.
Certain external unit is carried out when saying order in elected, and this equipment must be made within a certain period of time and echoing, and this is called " time exceeds " cycle.Time exceeds the cycle, and " Tlt " is approximately 140-260 microsecond (2 bits).Exceed if selected equipment is not free, then become effective status on bus, carry out data transmission, the finish command is carried out then, returns to the disarmed state on the bus.
Omnidistance signal is used for neither order the also process processing of non-data.Omnidistance signal comprises: prompting and synchronizing signal, be used for initial order and bus timing; Service request signal is used for equipment and serves to the principal computer request; Reset signal makes bus be low level in the minimal value of Tres, interrupts to produce on bus.The Tres cycle is approximately 2.8-5.2 millisecond (40 bits).Omnidistance signal will be done detailed description with other processing procedure.
Since external unit receive principal computer say order after can only send data, native system provides a kind of equipment can notify principal computer to need service method, this sends service request signal by equipment to principal computer and realizes.Among the present invention, sending service request signal is exactly to make bus keep low level behind the position of rest of arbitrary command process.Each external unit that is coupled on the bus all has some registers (being 4 registers in this preferred embodiment), and Fig. 3 shows a register of external unit.The A13 position is the services request enable bit, and when this position is changed to high level by principal computer, when needing service, equipment just can make bus be in low level behind the position of rest of command process, as shown in Figure 6.Equipment will continue to send services request, up to the order of saying of receiving principal computer.The process flow diagram of Fig. 4 has provided the treatment step after the device request service.
At first, this equipment determines whether it asks service, and promptly whether it has data to transmit to principal computer.If there are data to transmit, equipment is with its position, inner mark position.When principal computer sent Next Command, whether equipment inspection this issued its order.If order does not choose this equipment, equipment will check whether its services request enable bit (the A13 position of register 3) is changed to high level.If high level, this equipment makes bus behind the order position of rest be low level, referring to Fig. 6.Equipment is waited for and is received next principal computer order then, checks whether order is said in selected execution.If this equipment is chosen in order, it will determine whether order, and if not saying order, equipment sends services request, carry out the order of receiving, and wait for Next Command then; If say order, equipment sends data, and thinks that services request is satisfied.Equipment continues to monitor himself state, when needs service with decision.Owing to make principal computer can control the services request enable bit, on bus, realized more efficient operation.After receiving services request, principal computer only need check whether the equipment that the services request enable bit is set needs service.In addition, principal computer can be forbidden the unwanted equipment of some special applications.
When transmitting data, equipment can collision detection.If external unit will export 1, and data line is 0 maybe will become 0, can think that primary collision has taken place for this equipment and another equipment.This means that another equipment also transmits data on bus.When this situation took place, the equipment that hit stops to carry out on the bus said order, and keeps the transmission data in order to sending again.When bumping, equipment is with its position, inner mark position.In the prior art, external unit can't collision detection.This new feature of the present invention makes communication operation more effective.By collision detection, equipment can keep the data of transmission, and sends services request to principal computer.Detection method of the present invention does not need latent period before detecting collision.If bus is taken by miscellaneous equipment, equipment will stop its data transmission, or when bus is occupied, just do not begin transmission simply, in addition, this detection method also is useful for a plurality of equipment that the location has same hardware jumper address, for example for mouse type scaler 11 and 12 shown in Figure 1.
In this case, principal computer is shared the address that identical address just can change equipment by making collision equipment, and principal computer chooses these equipment to realize above-mentioned purpose by saying the R3 order.One of register of R3(equipment) comprises information shown in Figure 3.A0 is the handling procedure information of equipment to the A7 position, principal computer hence one can see that the function of equipment and the purposes of data that equipment provides.A8 is an address field to A11, and when not only an equipment that is coupled on the bus had identical command address, the content of this section was changed.At this moment, it is every to A11 that one of software address section will be distributed to A8, and this just is used as the command address of equipment later on.Before this, be a random number in these bits, be used for the auxiliary detection collision.For example, receive R3 order if any two mouse type scaler, and begin simultaneously to carry out and say order, the two all detects less than collision.If but be random number in the address field of register R3, then the final output of two equipment will be different, at this moment, one of two equipment will detect collision and stop execution saying order.The A12 position is the high speed enable bit, if this position, position, then data transmission adopts higher modulation speed (each frame 50 microsecond).The high speed enable bit is by principal computer set.If principal computer can not be used the high modulation rate receiving data, it just all places low level with the high speed enable bit of all devices.If principal computer can be used the high modulation rate receiving data, and equipment can send (that information be included in the register 3 in the handling procedure positions) with high modulation speed, and then principal computer enables the position high level with the high speed of equipment.As previously mentioned, the A13 position is the services request enable bit.By principal computer set,, handles equipment so that carrying out services request.The usefulness of doing is in the future stayed in A14 and A15 position, is changed to 0.
Receive after the R3 order, equipment offers principal computer with its state (being handling procedure and address).If be coupled two equipment of the same type on the bus, then has only a response command, because another can detect collision.Fig. 5 shows the method for distributing new address on bus.
After receiving the R3 order, equipment will send out its state from register 3.If data line transfers low level to, equipment is just thought and is bumped, and stops to send (promptly stop to carry out and say order), and its position, inner mark position with expression collision has been taken place.Principal computer sends to the address of mouse type scaler listens the R3 order.Each says that order all resets the internal impact zone bit of equipment, the whether set of its collision position of equipment inspection, if there is not set, equipment will be every to A11 with listening software address in the R3 order to replace A8.In this mode, new address that can tracking equipment by principal computer can change the device address that receives order.If equipment detects the collision position after listening the R3 order, equipment does not change the software address position, but can change other section of R3.Whether principal computer sends another and says the R3 order, have any equipment still to use mouse type scaler address to check.At this moment, remaining mouse type scaler will be sent its start bit, detect less than collision, and send its state from register 3.Principal computer is beamed back one to mouse type scaler address and is listened the R3 order.At this moment, remaining mouse type scaler will detect less than the collision position that is set in this example, so use the A8 from the software address replacement register 3 that principal computer receives every to A11.Principal computer sends another to mouse type scaler and says the R3 order then, at this moment, because there is not mouse type scaler in that address, so will exceed the time on the bus, principal computer knows that the equipment to each shared mouse type scaler address has all distributed new address.
In one embodiment of the invention, an equipment is arranged on the external unit, be used in reference to and show validity, be called the validity indicator.The validity indicator can be a special keys on the keyboard or a button on the mouse type scaler.When not only a device coupled was on bus, the host computer function showed that certain equipment of information requirements uses the validity indicator.Then, principal computer is sent out and is listened the R3 order, and this order changes the address of effective equipment.In this way, in multi-user system, each equipment all can be positioned and distribute new address.
Arrive this, the complete external unit bus that allows a plurality of external units are coupled to by single port principal computer of having described.
