Memory-mapped I/O ports

00000000 - Boot1 ROM

On the older hardware model, this is 512kB of NOR flash; on the newer model, it is 128kB of on-chip ROM.

Note: TI's INT_MMU_Initialize function uses the MMU to map the boot1 ROM (physical address 000xxxxx) at virtual address D40xxxxx, and the SRAM (physical address A40xxxxx) at virtual address 000xxxxx.

8FFF0000 - SDRAM control

Write-only (reads just return the last word read from SDRAM). In the OS, all code that uses these registers is copied to SRAM and run from there, rather than running it directly from the SDRAM.

90000000 - General Purpose I/O (GPIO)

The GPIO registers are separated into 4 sections:

• Section 0: 90000000-9000003F
• Section 1: 90000040-9000007F
• Section 2: 90000080-900000BF
• Section 3: 900000C0-900000FF.

Each register is a word, and only bits 0-7 of each are used. There can be up to 32 devices accessed by this setup, each known as a GPIO. Each GPIO is defined by one of the 8 bits in one of the sections. The number of the GPIO is the section number times 8 plus the bit number. Each GPIO has a status bit and can cause interrupts.

The following addresses are offsets from the beginning of the GPIO section:

• +00 (R): Masked interrupt status ([+04] & [+08])
• +04 (R): Reads raw interrupt status (directly dependent on the GPIO input) or sticky interrupt status (becomes set when GPIO status changes) depending on bit in [+20]
• +04 (W): Write 1 to the bit to reset the sticky interrupt status.
• +08 (R): Reads current interrupt mask bit.
• +08 (W): Write 1 to the bit to enable interrupt (set mask bit to 1)
• +0C (W): Write 1 to the bit to disable interrupt (set mask bit to 0)

The following addresses should be changed with a read-modify-write pattern so as to not disturb other bits in the register.

• +10 (R/W): Direction (set bit to 0 for output, 1 for input)
• +14 (R/W): GPIO output bit
• +18 (R): Reads GPIO input bit.
• +1C (R/W): Setting bit to 1 will invert raw interrupt status (?)
• +20 (R/W): Setting bit to 1 will use sticky interrupt status in [+04], or setting to 0 will use raw interrupt status.
• +24 (R/W): (?)

Currently known GPIOs:

• GPIO 1 (Section 0, bit 1): Touchpad "clock" (protocol is I²C, see Keypads#Touchpad I²C for details)
• GPIO 2 (Section 0, bit 2): Input bit is 0 if battery door open, 1 if closed (TI-Nspire CAS)
• GPIO 3 (Section 0, bit 3): Touchpad data
• GPIO 8 (Section 1, bit 0): Input bit is 0 if Reset Button is pressed.
• GPIO 24 (Section 3, bit 0): Input bit is 1 if a keypad is not plugged in. (TI-Nspire non-CAS only?)

  • Bit 3: Set this bit to force red light off. Overrides bits 5 and 13.

Note: If red and green lights are on at the same time, the color becomes yellow.

A0000000 - Unknown

The OS's page table has an entry to allow this to be accessed, but no known code does so. (In the newer hardware model, this just mirrors the BOOT1 ROM.)

A4000000 - Internal SRAM

A4000100-A40096FF is used by the OS as the LCD screen buffer. The upper left corner is the first byte. Each grayscaled pixel is 4-bit long. 1111 is white, 0000 is black. On CX with colors enabled, each pixel is 16-bit long: 5 bits for red, 6 bits for green, 5 bits for blue. (Note: CX buffer is too large to fit in this memory region and is instead located in SDRAM. It is recommended to read the location of the buffer from C0000010.)

    • 100 = 16 bpp (holds the literal 16-bit palette value instead of a palette index)
    • 101 = 24 bpp (not applicable to TI-Nspire's STN LCD)
    • 110,111 = reserved
  • Bit 4: Set to 1 if STN LCD is monochrome, or 0 if color. Should be set to 1 on TI-Nspire.

  • +08 (R/W): Number of halfwords to write (25 bits)
  • +0C (R/W): Base address (word-aligned)

See Interrupts. The controller is a PL190 on TI-Nspire CX. The following documentation is for the classic TI-Nspire.

Registers that operate on sets of IRQs are bitmaps, with bit 0 corresponding to IRQ 0, and so on.

• DC000000 (R): Masked IRQ status (always equal to [DC000004] & [DC000008])
• DC000004 (R): Raw interrupt status or sticky interrupt status, depending on bitfield in DC000204
• DC000004 (W): Resets a set of sticky interrupts
• DC000008 (R): Current set of enabled IRQs
• DC000008 (W): Enable a set of IRQs
• DC00000C (R): Mirror of DC000008
• DC00000C (W): Disable a set of IRQs
• DC000020 (R): Reads current IRQ number (no side effects)

• DC000028 (R): Reading this register will reset the IRQ request. The value read is whatever was last copied by reading DC000024
• DC00002C (R/W): 4-bit value. IRQs with priority greater than or equal to this value will not be requested
• DC000100 (R): Masked FIQ status (always equal to [DC000104] & [DC000108])

• DC000128 (R): Reading this register will reset the FIQ request. The value read is whatever was last copied by reading DC000124
• DC00012C (R/W): 4-bit value. FIQs with priority greater than or equal to this value will not be requested
• DC000200 (R/W): Bits that are 0 will invert the corresponding raw interrupt status bit. Typically this register should hold 0xFFFFFFFF.
• DC000204 (R/W): Bits that are 1 will cause the corresponding bit in DC000004 and DC000104 to read the sticky interrupt status. Bits that are 0 will cause the corresponding bit to read the raw interrupt status.
• DC000208 (R/W): ?
• DC000300-DC0003FF (W): IRQ priority (0-7). One register per IRQ. Lower values indicate higher priority.
