Galaga memory map, partial, probably wrong in places, but it is a start. Galaga memory map ----------------- V1.0 Nov1/96 'board squirrel' Galaga is a multi processor architecture machine. The processor board is a subset of the Bosconian processor board. In fact a bosconian CPU will run the Galaga code. A galaga video board is required though. Processor 1 ----------- Z80A , clocked at 1H. Board position 4M. Uses 4, 2732 eproms these are mapped at 0000-3FFF sequentially 3N(gg-a),3M(gg-b), 3L(gg-c),3K(gg-d). It uses a sync bus controller (08xx) at 2J to access common system areas. It uses IRQ1, and NMI1. The source of NMI1 appears to be the unknown device at 2L(06xx) Processor 2 ----------- Z80 , clocked at 1H, board position 4J. Uses 1 2732 eprom 3J(gg-e) mapped at 0000-0FFF. It uses a sync bus controller (08XX) at 2J to access common system areas. It uses IRQ2, and NMI2. The source of NMI2 is the 50 way edge connector to the video board, but the video board does not appear to use it. Stack area 9100, accesses video bus D, and the A ram at least. Processor 3 ----------- Z80 , clocked at 1H, the horizontal dot clock frequency Board position 4E. Uses a single eprom (2732) at position 3E(gg-g). This is mapped at 0000-0FFF. It uses a Z80 sync bus conrtoller chip(08xx) at 2E to access common sytem areas. It uses NMI3 and IRQ3. The source of NMI3 is the clock generator IC(07xx) at 4D, but it is enabled by the !NMION signal. It seems to access video ram in the video bus 'D'area. Stack area is 9B00 COMMON SYSTEM AREA ------------------ IC 2P,1P do most of the decoding on the cpu board. 2P AA AAA C11 111 K54 321 001 101 -> !I/O i.e 6800-6FFF 001 110 -> enable 1P 1P EE+ RAA NN5 W54 001 000 -> A6 PROM 5C, sound related 6800+ 001 001 -> WE ram 2B(7489) , sound related. 001 010 -> select register 3C, system control bottom 3 address bits select which bit. 001 011 -> !WDR watchdog reset, must be held each vblank. 001 100 -> read dip switches. A 2 bit read, of 16 switches selected by bottom 3 address bits.

No investigation at this point. VIDEO BOARD ----------- IC 1E does most of the CPU related adress decoding on the video board.
