KD11-E/EA microcode

The engineering drawings for the KD11-E CPU and KD11-EA CPU provide nice flow charts for the microcode in these CPUs; with one tiny exception, the microcode in the two is identical. (The KD11-EA contains additional microcode associated with the FP11-A Floating-Point Processor, which is not covered here.)

The difference is that the microinstruction 17-JJ is stored in location 002 in the KD11-E, and location 0744 in the KD11-EA. The reason for the change is unknown.

The instructions/functionality covered on each page are as follows:

Page	Contents
2	Instruction fetch and dispatch
3	Double op, source fetch
4	MOV
5	Double op, byte or SUB
6	Double op, destination fetch
7	Single op, modified dest
8	Single op, non-modified dest
9	JMP
10	JSR
11	SWAB
12	Shift, rotate
13	MFPI
14	MTPI
15	MTPS
16	MFPS
17	MARK, BR, RTS, CLx, SEx, SOB, RTI, RTT, NEG, WAIT, RESET
18	MUL/DIV
19	MUL
20	MUL
21	DIV
22	DIV
23	ASH/ASHC
24	Shift right
25	Shift left
26	Power on, trap

The following table, indexed by microinstruction number (in octal), gives the location of each microinstruction in the flow diagrams, and the operation performed by that microinstruction.

During the transcription of this information, a number of errors in the drawings were found - places were two different microinstructions were assigned to the same location. These have been corrected (and checked against a dump of the microcode).
