Gate Array
== Introduction ==
The gate array is a specially designed chip exclusively for use in the Amstrad CPC and was designed by Amstrad plc.
In the CPC+ system, the functions of the Gate-Array are integrated into a single [[ASIC|ASIC]]. When the ASIC is "locked", the extra features are not available and the ASIC operates the same as the Gate-Array in the CPC allowing programs written for the CPC to work on the Plus without modification. The ASIC must be "un-locked" to access the new features.
In the [[KC Compact Computer|KC compact]] system, the functions of the Gate-Array are "emulated" in [[TTL logic|TTL logic]] and by the [[Zilog Z8536 CIO|Zilog Z8536 CIO]].
In the "cost-down" version of the CPC6128, the functions of the Gate-Array are integrated into a ASIC.
The Gate Array is described here, as it is in a standard CPC.
''What does it do?''
The Gate Array is responsible for the display (colour palette, resolution, horizontal and vertical sync), interrupt generation and memory arrangement.
== Controlling the Gate Array ==
The gate array is controlled by I/O. The gate array is selected when bit 15 of the I/O port address is set to "0" and bit 14 of the I/O port address is set to "1". The values of the other bits are ignored. However, to avoid conflict with other devices in the system, these bits should be set to "1".
The recommended I/O port address is &7Fxx.
The function to be performed is selected by writing data to the Gate-Array, bit 7 and 6 of the data define the function selected (see table below). It is not possible to read from the Gate-Array.

===== Note =====
This function is not available in the Gate-Array, but is performed by a device at the same I/O port address location. In the CPC464,CPC664 and KC compact, this function is performed in a memory-expansion (e.g. Dk'Tronics 64K Ram Expansion), if this expansion is not present then the function is not available. In the CPC6128, this function is performed by a PAL located on the main PCB, or a memory-expansion. In the 464+ and 6128+ this function is performed by the ASIC or a memory expansion. Please read the document on Ram Management for more information.
==== Pen selection ====
When bit 7 and bit 6 are set to "0", the remaining bits determine which pen is to have its colour changed. When bit 4 is set to "0", bits 3 to 0 define which pen is to be selected. When bit 4 is set to "1", the value contained in bits 3-0 is ignored and the border is selected.
The pen remains selected until another is chosen.
Each mode has a fixed number of pens. Mode 0 has 16 pens, mode 1 has 4 pens and mode 2 has 2 pens.

==== Colour selection ====
Once the pen has been selected the colour can then be changed. Bits 4 to 0 specify the hardware colour number from the hardware colour palette.
Even though there is provision for 32 colours, only 27 are possible. The remaining colours are duplicates of those already in the colour palette.

===== Notes =====
This is not an official colour
Select screen mode and rom configuration
This is a general purpose register responsible for the screen mode and the rom configuration.
==== Screen mode selection ====
The function of bits 1 and 0 is to define the screen mode. The settings for bits 1 and 0 and the corresponding screen mode are given in the table below.
{|{{Prettytable|width: 700px; font-size: 2em;}}|''Bit 1''||''Bit 0''||''Screen mode''
|-
|0|''Bit 1'' |''Bit 0'' ||Mode 0, 160x200 resolution, 16 colours''Screen mode''
|-
|0||1|0 |Mode 10, 320x200 160x200 resolution, 4 16 colours
|-
|1||0|1 |Mode 21, 640x200 320x200 resolution, 2 4 colours
|-
|1||1|0 |Mode 32, 160x200 640x200 resolution, 4 2 colours (note 1)
|-
| 1
| 1
| Mode 3, 160x200 resolution, 4 colours (note 1)
|}
This mode is not official. From the combinations possible, we can see that 4 modes can be defined, although the Amstrad only has 3. Mode 3 is similar to mode 0, because it has the same resolution, but it is limited to only 4 colours.
Mode changing is synchronised with HSYNC. If the mode is changed, it will take effect from the next HSYNC.
==== Rom configuration selection ====
Bit 2 is used to enable or disable the lower rom area. The lower rom area occupies memory addressess &0000-&3fff and is used to access the operating system rom. When the lower rom area is is enabled, reading from &0000-&3FFF will return data in the rom. When a value is written to &0000-&3FFF, it will be written to the ram underneath the rom. When it is disabled, data read from &0000-&3FFF will return the data in the ram.
Similarly, bit 3 controls enabling or disabling of the upper rom area. The upper rom area occupies memory addressess &C000-&FFFF and is BASIC or any expansion roms which may be plugged into a rom board/box. See the document on upper rom selection for more details. When the upper rom area enabled, reading from &c000-&ffff, will return data in the rom. When data is written to &c000-&FFFF, it will be written to the ram at the same address as the rom. When the upper rom area is disabled, and data is read from &c000-&ffff the data returned will be the data in the ram.
Bit 4 controls the interrupt generation. It can be used to delay interrupts. See the document on interrupt generation for more information.

</pre> ==== Conversion chart ====
The hardware colour number is different to the colour range used by the firmware, so a conversion chart is provided for the corresponding firmware/hardware colour values and the corresponding colour name.
===== Note =====
The firmware keeps track of the colours it is using. Every VSYNC (assuming interrupts are enabled) the firmware sets the colours. This enables the user to have flashing colours. If the user selects a new colour using the gate array, the new colour will flash temporarily and then return to it's original colour. This is due to the firmware re- setting the colour. When using the firmware, use it's routines to select the colour, and the colour will remain.

This chart also gives a quick reference guide for programming the colours. The number is the colour number which can be sent directly, once the pen has been selected, to get the colour wanted.

</pre> ==== Pallette R,G,B definitions ====
There are 27 colours which are generated from red, green and blue mixed in different quantities. There are 3 levels of red, 3 levels of green and 3 levels of blue, and these can be thought of as off/no colour, half-on/half-colour, and on/full-colour.
To display a CPC image you will need to use a analogue monitor with a composite sync.
This table shows the relationship between hardware colour number, colour name and RGB mixing.

Green Screen Colours
On a green screen (where all colours are shades of green), the colours (in the software/firmware colours), are in order of increasing intensity. So that black is very dark, and white is bright green, and colour 13 is a medium green. (Thanks to [[Mark Rison|Mark Rison]] for this information)
