8.1 GENERAL NOTES
a. The Audiometer Board is a self-contained audiometric module.
If the board is changed, the headphones must be calibrated
to the board.
b. If during the calibration process, default data is loaded
then diagnostic mode D5 procedure must be performed (see
Section 4, Calibration of this manual).
C .
If the micro controller or audiometer board is changed then
default data,
and Diagnostic Mode D5 procedure must be
performed.
8.2 MICROCOMPUTER (U503)
The MC68HC11A1 is an 8 bit MCU with sophisticated on-chip
peripheral capabilities. In the GSI 17's application it operates
at a nominal 1 MHz bus speed. The HCMOS technology used combines
smaller size and higher speeds with the low.power and high noise
immunity of CMOS. On-chip memory includes 512 bytes of
electrically erasable programmable ROM (EEPROM) and 256 bytes of
random-access memory (RAM). The on-chip peripheral functions
include:
Eight channel analog to digital (A/D) converter with eight
bit resolution of which two channels (PE6 and PE7) are used
to monitor battery functions.
Free-running timer system that has three input capture
lines.
Two lines (PAO and PA1) are used to decode HL
direction and amount of change on an edge triggered basis.
The third input capture line (PA2) is used to detect left
vs. right output selection.
A real time interrupt function (XIRQ) which is used by the
Present Bar for immediate processing of a "Present" command.
Self-monitoring circuitry is included on-chip to protect
against system errors. This "computer operating properly"
(COP) watch dog system protects against software failures.
The internal 512 byte EEPROM contains data for the A/D converter
relative to the "LO BAT" (Low Battery) threshold and
"DEAD BAT"
or battery level below usable level threshold. Also stored in
the EEPROM are all calibration HL, SPL and attenuator data. This
data is stored with a triple redundancy technique. In this
method each calibration point per frequency is stored 3 times,
