Not really, but this is a pretty simple scheme. The upper portion of the address to the bank in the
memory chip is contained in the register. And in a dual-chip setup like this, a bit to determine
which chip.
For instance, on the MC-10 board (16K banks) it goes…
Register data for a banked area;
- bits 0..4 = upper address of chip memory (32 values, 32*16=512)
- bits 5..6 = not used
- bit 7 = chip select (FLASH or SRAM)
So, you can see, this scheme is limited to 128 banks when the MSB is used for a chip select,
assuming an 8-bit register. Sufficient here though.
How does the CoCoFlash work?
