Seeking: TMS32010 Assembly Language Programmer's Guide (1983)

by pbirkel＠gmail.com

All; I seek a copy (hard or electronic) of the "TMS32010 Assembly Language Programmer's Guide" (1983). Paperback : 194 pages ISBN-10 : 0904047423 ISBN-13 : 978-0904047424 Publisher : Texas Instruments (December 1, 1983) Item Weight : 1.11 pounds Language: : English The "TMS32010 User's Guide" (1985) is readily available. Not so the (more important!) Programmer's Guide :-{. I recently obtained a TMS 32010 Evaluation Module (EVM). So I'm motivated to "learn something" about the details of programming the TMS 32010. My first hands-on foray into the (early) world of DSP :-}. I've searched all of the nooks-n-crannies of the web to no avail. All help in locating/obtaining a copy of this document will be greatly appreciated. I do have a copy of "Digital Signal Processing Using TMS32010" (Douglas L. Jones) on order as a stop-gap measure. Thank you, paul

Emails going to spam folder in gmail

by billdegnan＠gmail.com

Hi, I have noticed the same email addresses' messages routinely end up in the spam folder of gmail. It's no big deal for me to check my spam folder but it's an extra step and messages can be lost. For those of you who run your own mail servers please consider updating your DNS / authentication to match gmail standards. It's not about making a filter or marking messages as "not spam". It's about how the sending mail server communicates with gmail and the "newer" mail server gateway protocols, etc. so that it's not necessary to make a filter in the first place.' There are a lot of how-to's on the web, each mail server is different and there is no simple fix that applies to all. Bill

Hey, I got a Perq_T2 image!!!

by cz＠alembic.crystel.com

Well, after waiting almost a month for the USPS to deliver a "Priority Mail 1 day" package from Dave I now have the MFM reader card. So I started working on these disks I rescued. First up was a ST506 (labelled "RD50" by DEC) and a pair of ST412's. Bad news: No drives spun up Good news: You can take the controller board off the drives and spin the spindles by hand. Better news: The spindles spun (clockwise, viewed from bottom) Best news: spinning while powering on got all three to spin up. So far I imaged the RD50 (possibly a Rainbow or a Pro/350) and one of the ST412's. It came up as a PERQ_T2 format and I have two dumps of the disk with only one bad sector reported. Anyone know what to do with this kind of image? I've powered down the drives and will store them till I can figure out how to make them run more quietly.... C

ISO: TI 980 (not 980A or 980B) Hardware docs

by derschjo＠gmail.com

Hey all -- A straight TI 980 (not one of the later 980A or 980B variants) appeared on my doorstep this afternoon. While well-shipped, the person I got it from decided to ship the boards and power supply separately from the chassis -- and unfortunately didn't document where anything goes. There is precious little information out there about the original 980 -- anyone sitting on any documentation? Anyone know someone who has one? (Anyone have any spare parts? The core memory boards & chassis are labeled well enough for me to see that I'm missing one of the "DA" boards...) Thanks, Josh

PDP-8 memory card on eBay?

by jnc＠mercury.lcs.mit.edu

Anyone recognize this card: https://www.ebay.com/itm/313323417718 I looked, and it doesn't seem to be any of those for a PDP-11. However, I see the DRAM array is 12x4 chips, which makes me think it might be for a PDP-8? Noel
