GPC® 68

General Purpose Controller, Motorola 68.000

The GPC® 68 is a powerful 16/32 card in the standard Single Europe format, 100x160 mm on ABACO® BUS.

Its rational architecture and the sophisticated integration tecnique, that is fruit of years of experience in the design field, enable grifo® to offer to the operators in this field an advance working tool at an incredible low price.

It is possible to use GPC® 68 as a development system of its own architecture thanks to the powerful Monitor-Debugger-Assembler, ROM-Resident (as an option), or as a Multitasking system thanks to the very powerful operating system RTOS PEARL, resident on ROM too.

If you need a high level programming language, a very efficient PASCAL, ROM-Resident, is at disposal.

Wide and detailed manuals, for both hardware and software packages, are at disposal.

Very efficient communication packages are at disposal for different development environments, as the CP/M 80, ATARI, MS/DOS etc..

• Single Europe format 100 x 160 mm.
• Interface for the 16 bits ABACO® BUS.
• Direct addressing to the 16MByte BUS.
• Two RS 232 lines that are settable via software up to 32KBaud managed by 68681.
• It is possible to set-one line to RS 422 or RS 485.
• Three 8-Bits Parallel Ports, managed by the 68230.
• Three timer counters managed by the 68230.
• The system CPU and the 68000 at 10 MHz.
• Just one supply voltage at 5Vdc.
• Six locations for 32 pins RAM-EPROM, to be able to support also the last 1Mbit devices.
• 768 RAM - EPROM Kbyte (512 KByte max of RAM).
• Watch Dog hardware settable.
• Several LEDs managed via software.
• Four dip switches are managed via software.
• Wide range of basic software available, including Remote Symbolic Debugger, evolved languages such as KAT-CE, PASCAL, GET-68, FORTH, HTC-68, CMX-RTX, etc.. No development system required in order to operate; for example, the KAT-CE package and connection to any PC serial line is sufficient
