[comp.sources.wanted] Wanted - information on the Mostek 3801

dg@lakart.UUCP (David Goodenough) (10/14/89)

I'm posting this to comp.os.cpm, since the question relates to a chip in
my Televideo 803 CP/M machine. If anyone can recommend a better newsgroup
to post to, please do so. Followups will go to comp.sources.wanted, or
you can just E-mail them to me.

The serial I/O chip in the Televideo 803 appears to be a hybrid cross
between a CTC, PIO, and SIO, all in one package: the Mostek 3801. As
delivered, the cpu has to poll the chip to receive incoming characters.
I would like to write a serial driver that uses interrupts, but I haven't
been able to find how to get the chip to generate an interrupt. I have
run tests with all the vectors in the interrupt table filled in, but my
suspicion is that I have to set a bit somewhere in a register to allow
the chip to generate interrupts for received characters.

Any ideas, hints, information, anything????

			Thanks in advance,
