Motorola 68705R3 68705U3 NMOS microcontrollers reading

Adapter 68MR00 for Stag PP39 programmer w/ 39M200 Microcontroller Module

This adapter, to be used with a STAG PP39 / Zm2500 programmer and a Microcontroller 39M200 Gang Module, allows you the reading of Motorola microcontrollers MC68705R3 and MC68705U3 in less than 1 second. Code can be saved by transfering the binary dump through the serial line of the programmer using Stag Com1 software.



Note: The 68MR00 adapter can also be used with the Zm2500 Stag programmer.

The 68MR00 is interesting and having more info about the 39M200 would be more helpful since I can only guess what is happening around its socket 2.


There's some strange things too with the 68MR00:
1. there must be a special voltage applied to the uP pin 16
   since it is switched by the relay. It comes from pin 9 of
   socket 2 (called J1 in the 68MR00 schematic). I'm guessing
   it might be the voltage which puts the U3/R3 into its NUM mode.


2. The EPROM address is latched by IC1. But the lower 3 bits are
   unusual. They come from PB0, PB7 and PB1 on the uP. What a strange
   way to do it!!!
   I understand a bit why they control those 3 bits from the uP
   because when you look at the code in the EPROM (IC4) it's
   organised in 8 byte sections:
   C6 00 00 BC 00 00 00 00
   C6 00 01 BC 00 00 00 00
   .... etc to
   C6 0F FF BC 00 00 00 00


   where
   C6 xx xx  is lda xxxx       ie load from memory address xxxxH
   BC 00     is jmp 0000       ie jump back to the start of EPROM
   00 00 00                    I don't think does anything even though
                               it is a valid code (brset)


   Very strange!!
   I think they execute 8 bits of code each then 39M200 changes
   the high address bits and they do it again, etc until all of the
   internal EPROM has been examined. What I don't see is where it
   writes the internal EPROM data to PortB but maybe that has something
   to do with how NUM mode works.


3. uP pins 2 (RST) and 6 (OSC2) are also controlled from socket 2.
   Probably just to provide a clock and a reset signal.


4. uP pins 14 & 15 control the latching of address/data into 8 bit
   latches (IC1, IC2 & IC6). This must be part of NUM.
