A state in which a task has voluntarily blocked itself from further execution until an awaited event occurs. The kernel allows a task to wait either for the arrival of a message at a port or for the arrival of a signal at a semaphore.
Industry:Semiconductors
A group of parameters, eight doublewords long, that describe a data packet and how it is to be moved from source to destination.
Industry:Semiconductors
A state in which the addresses fetched by the debugger become nonsequential as a result of instructions that load the PC with new values, such as branches, calls, and returns.
Industry:Semiconductors
A hardware coupler that joins or connects a cable to a peripheral device for electronic communication. The software development board (SDB) has four connectors that connect cables from input/output peripherals to the board.
Industry:Semiconductors
A storage bit associated with each subblock of master processor data-cache memory that indicates whether the subblock contains modified data that needs to be written back to main memory.
Industry:Semiconductors
A hardware interrupt that uses the same logic as the maskable interrupts but cannot be masked. It is often used as a soft reset. See also maskable interrupt; nonmaskable interrupt.
Industry:Semiconductors
A strip of conductive material attached at one end to earth ground and at the other to a person or an object so that static electricity can dissipate to ground and bypass electronic circuitry. Typically used by people when they are handling discrete electronic components or assemblies that are sensitive to static electricity.
Industry:Semiconductors
A hardware interrupt triggered by a specific value on a pin.
