8293
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The 8293 is a bidirectional transceiver. It was designed
to interface the
Intel 8291 GPIB Talker/Listener and the
Intel® 8292 GPIB Controller
to
the IEEE Standard
488-1978. Instrumentation Bus (also referred to as the
GPIBBus). The Intel GPIB Bus Transceiver meets or
ex-
ceeds all of the electrical specifications defined in the
IEEE
Standard 488-1978, Seytion 3.3-3.5, including the
required bus termination specifications.
The
8293 can
be
hardware programmed
to
one of four
modes of operation. These modes
allow the 8293
to
be
configured
to
support both a Talker/Listener/Controller
environment and Talker/Listener environment.
In
addi-
tion, the 8293 can
be
used
as
a general purpose three-
state (push-pull) or open-collector bus transceiver with
nine receiver/drivers. Two modes are used
to
support a
Talker/Listener environment
(s.ee
Figure
1),
and to sup-
port a Talker/Listener/Controller environment (see
Figure
2).
Mo.de
1 is the general purpose mode.
