CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

The Type DF32 Disk File and Control, manufactured by Digital Equipment Corporation,

Maynard, Massachusetts Is afast, random or sequential access, bulk storage device used with the

PDP-8, PDP-8/S, or PDP-8/I computers for memory expansion. The DF32 provides acapacity of 32,768

13-bit words which are stored on arotating disk.

Up to three type DS32 Extender. Disks can be attached to the DF32, each of which extends

the bit capacity by 32K for atotal of 131 ,072 13-bit words as shown in Figure 1-1 .

The disk file is aprogram controlled device used in conjunction with the PDP-8, PDP-8/S,

or PDP-8/1, and operates through the 3-cycle data break facility of the computers.

1.1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE

This manual and the referenced documents herein provides operation, programming, and

maintenance information on both the Type DF32 Disk File and Control and DS32 Extender Disk. The

programming information, which includes sample programs for storage access, is presented in sufficient

detail to allow operating programs to be written. Although references throughout this manual are

primarily made to the PDP-8 computer, the information may be assumed to apply equally to the PDP-8/t

and PDP-8/S except where specifically noted otherwise.

The information in this manual is intended for use by persons familiar with DEC digital logic

and the operation of the PDP-8, PDP-8/S, and PDP-8/1 computers. The maintenance information and

routines require knowledge of the operation of bulk storage devices.
