Emulation of the AN/UYK-20 Tactical Data Computer on the Burroughs D-Machine

Abstract

A representation of the Univac AN/UYK-20 computer systems has been emulated on the Burroughs D Interpreter-Based System. The entire AN/UYK-20 instruction repertoire has been emulated with the exception of the 'math pac' option (floating point arithmetic and cordic functions), clock and interrupt codes, and input/output operation codes. Modular design with extensive documentation has been implemented throughout program development allowing for ease of modification and further extensions to the existing emulation. Emulation and hardware architecture of the AN/UYK-20 and the Burroughs D-machine, are discussed in conjunction with the AN/UYK-20 itself. Methods of testing and debugging, sample test programs and recommendations for continued design modifications to the emulation are presented.
