7.2.11 Next Transfer Address Register

This is a sixteen-bit wide register which is negative edge loaded by INLN. It takes its data from a three input multiplexer controlled by IAMA and IAMB. One input to the multiplexer is the full data bus for secondary address loading. The second input is the data bus, via a mask controlled by the internal address width setting, for internal address loading. The third input is the output of the NTA register via a fast adder, for incrementing the NTA during block transfers. The adder has carry input and output. These are multiplexed with the geographic address check output and the parity signals on the BGPC and OCP pins. The carry output is passed to the OCP pin only during an increment NTA operation. When INLC is low (in the case of the lower ADI chip) the carry input is held high. When INLC is high, and only during an increment NTA operation, carry in is obtained through the BGPC pin, which should be externally connected to the OCP pin of the lower chip.
