ABSTRACT:
An input-output subsystem for the handling of data-transfer operations in a digital data processing system. The I/O subsystem provides a series of I/O controller-processors, designated as Line Control Processors, which are organized into groups to form a Base Module. A plurality of such Base Modules are organized to work with a main system interface unit called an Input-Output Translator which is part of the main host system comprising a processor and main memory. The Input-Output Translator (IOT) provides direct memory transfers to and from any connected Line Control Processor independently of the main processor. This arrangement simplifies the expansion of system capability for handling a greater number of peripheral devices on a simple economic basis while increasing data-transfer rates and reducing access errors in individual transfer operations.
