Description
The utility model relates to a kind of computer Chinese character card, belongs to the interfacing field in the computer science.
Since computer Chinese character card is released, because its strong functions makes market continue to increase its demand.But present Chinese Card also has following deficiency:
1. need take a host expansion slot, common microcomputer on the market, expansion slot has eight at most, and few has only three.And the expansion card that the user need insert is more and more, can't be exhaustive one by one as the encrypted card of the driver card of the interface card of network interface card, virus card, scanner, laser printer, software, display card, hard disk card, expanded memory card etc.Squeezing one and come out to insert Chinese Card in quite nervous expansion slot, is very difficult thing.The microcomputer that has, all do not have expansion slot as notebook machine, hand held machine, network non-disk workstation etc., may not use present Chinese Card, the manufacturer that has have to be cured to Chinese Card on the machine mainboard, like this, the machine that does not solidify Chinese Card still can't use Chinese Card.
2. need occupying system resources.Chinese Card needs committed memory address and port address, and PC has only the address space of 1M under real pattern, and about vacant address space 128K, port address has only 4K, and vacant is also few.So plugging Chinese Card is easy to conflict with other card.
3. present Chinese Card generally can only be used on the isa bus.PS/2 is a mca bus, so many Chinese Cards all can't be used on the PS/2, and bussing technique is also in development constantly, and whether Chinese Card can move on bus in the future, still a problem.
4. insert Chinese Card and need open cabinet, cumbersome.For the layman, also might burn out machine because of carelessness.Universal day by day along with computing machine, easily installation property has become an index of computer product evaluation and test.
The purpose of this utility model is that design does not a kind ofly take host expansion slot, do not take the external Hanzi board of other system resource yet.
Parallel interface is the external apparatus interface that present microcomputer extensively adopts, and can connect printer and draught machine etc.Because parallel interface is the interface of one-way transmission, promptly send the interface of data to peripheral hardware, so the function of data input is not provided in the interface by microcomputer.As with it as the Chinese Card interface, then not only need Chinese Card is sent in the address of font data in control signal and the character library, the more important thing is and font data will be read in internal memory, so that main frame is further handled.Find behind various by analysis parallel interface data and the control program that the output signal of in fact using is D0__D7, STROBE and INIT.Output data is placed on the D0__D7, and STROBE offers peripheral hardware and latchs control, and INIT is used to make peripheral hardware to reset.Whenever microcomputer when peripheral hardware transmits data, at first detect the busy-idle condition of peripheral hardware, it is the BUSY signal, when peripheral hardware such as is at the idle condition of pending data input, program just is placed on the eight bit data of a byte on the D0__D7, on the STROBE line, send out a positive pulse then, make peripheral hardware latch data on the D0__D7.The key that this shows data transmission is controlled at the STROBE signal, and this signal does not change, and peripheral hardware can not shown interest in data-signal, and INIT should remain on high level in course of normal operation simultaneously.And SLCTIN is always low level in the operating process of various peripheral hardwares, and AUTOFD is always high level.Further analyze the printout program of DOS and Windows, what find to adopt all is same method, and the analysis of some typical application (as: AUTOCAD, TANGO, WordStar, WordPerfect etc.) has also been drawn same conclusion.

Following its principle of work of surface analysis:
Parallel interface data when output SLCTIN is always low, thereby the gating Chinese Card carries out data transmission and suits somebody to a T when being high with SLCTIN.Data transmission finishes and is returned to low level, and condition line is returned system.The Chinese character base data reach 8MB, total address space needs 23 address wires with byte addressing, in the data input of reality, do the data input for unit with nibble (4Bit), therefore the address must address with nibble, so also must increase an address wire, so actual address wire needs 24, these addresses must cutting be high, medium and low respectively 8 latch respectively in order, this just need send time clock with program and be controlled.AUTOFD is a signal of having degenerated, therefore available it make clock cable.When SLCTIN is sent to the signal of state mouth from external unit during for low level; The signal that is sent to the state mouth as SLCTIN during for high level is the font data of reading from Mask ROM array, transmits low four or high four with the D0 line decision of data port.
Behind the computing machine gating Chinese Card, at first be ready to the address date of Chinese character base font, the state of latch control signal is set by control line SLCTIN and AUTOFD, simultaneously condition line is switched on the Chinese character base data line, export the address date of Chinese character base font from the data line of parallel interface 6 by order middle and high, low byte then.
With reference to Fig. 3, the initial SLCTIN of order is low, and after main frame sent first clock, the output F2 of sequential control 2 and F3 pin were that LH and LM are low, and main frame makes that SLCTIN is high then, the gating external Hanzi board; Send out byte address middle, it is high that second clock makes F3, during middle byte address is latched in the eight bit address latchs 9; Then send out high byte address and the 3rd clock, with the high byte address latch in high eight-bit address latch 10; After this send out the low byte address again.The highest two translate the chip selection signal of MASKROM array 1 through chip selection logic 4 in the high address, choose certain sheet word-base chip 8, and the font data of so just taking out a byte from word-base chip is sent to the input end pin of switch logic 5.This font data needs at twice from switch logic 5 outputs, and when the D0 position in the low byte address was 0, low four of output word graphic data were to export high four at 1 o'clock.The font data of output is read by main frame through the condition line of parallel interface 6.The operation of main frame by sending the address and fetching data so just realized the visit to external Hanzi board.
When SLCTIN is high, one of four states line ACK, PE, BUSY, SLCT that switch logic 5 will be expanded parallel interface 11 export as input, the corresponding state line that is about to these condition lines and parallel interface 6 is connected, and makes external Hanzi board recover the function of parallel interface.
Because external Hanzi board uses existing parallel interface, an expansion parallel interface is provided simultaneously, therefore external Hanzi board can both be worked simultaneously with the equipment that is inserted in its expansion parallel interface, external Hanzi board neither takies expansion slot, do not take other system resource yet, needn't consider the compatibility of bus; Because external Hanzi board is external, therefore needn't open cabinet, general people does not need special training to install and use.
