sc/mp
(foldoc) | SC/MP
(Nicknamed "Scamp") A typical 8-bit
microprocessor from National Semiconductor released in
April 1976. It was intended for control applications (a
simple BASIC in a 2.5K ROM was added to one version). It
featured 16 bit addressing, with 12 address lines and 4 lines
borrowed from the data bus (it was common to borrow lines from
the data bus for addressing). Internally, it included three
index registers (P1 to P3) and two 8-bit general-purpose
registers. It had a PC, but no stack pointer or
subroutine instructions (though they could be emulated with
index registers). During interrupts, the PC was saved in
P3. It was meant for embedded control, and these features
were omitted for cost reasons. It was also bit serial
internally to keep it cheap.
The unique feature was the ability to completely share a
system bus with other processors. Most processors of the time
assumed they were the only ones accessing memory or I/O
devices. Multiple SC/MPs could be hooked up to the bus, as
well as other intelligent devices, such as DMA controllers.
A control line (ENOUT (Enable Out) to ENIN) could be chained
along the processors to allow cooperative processing. This
was very advanced for the time, compared to other CPUs.
In addition to I/O ports like the Intel 8080, the SC/MP also
had instructions and one pin for serial input and one for
output.
