This file describes types of cartridge images supported by the Atari800
emulator.
There are:
- raw images - files that contain only dump of cartridge memory
- CART files - images with additional 16-byte header, which contains type
of the cartridge
For raw images you usually have to select the cartridge type each time
you insert an image. To make it easier, you only select from types of same
image size. If there's only one supported type that matches file's length
(currently only for 2 KB cartridges), that type is selected automatically.
The advantage of using CART files is that you don't have to select
the cartridge type, because it is stored inside the file.
The CART format has been introduced in Atari800 0.8.0, when there were
only 4 supported cartridge types. The format has not changed, only new types
have been added.
The format is:
first 4 bytes containing 'C' 'A' 'R' 'T'.
next 4 bytes containing cartridge type in MSB format (see the table below).
next 4 bytes containing cartridge checksum in MSB format (ROM only).
next 4 bytes are currently unused (zero).
followed immediately with the ROM data: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 40, etc. kilobytes.
The recommended file name extension for CART files is CAR.
Currently supported cartridge types:

Id is the cartridge type code stored in the CART file.
Machine indicates if the cartridge is for Atari 8-bit Home Computers
(400/800 and XL/XE) or the Atari 5200 Game System.
Size is length of image in kilobytes, unless the value ends with "M", which
means it is in megabytes.
E (for Emulation) describes state of emulation support of the cartridge in
Atari800. "p" means the cartridge is emulated partially (some features
missing), no value means emulation of all features.
Below are descriptions of all types. For bank-switched cartridges banks
are numbered in the order they appear in the image file, starting with 0.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 1: Standard 8 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Standard 8 KB cartridge, that occupies 8 KB of address space between $A000
and $BFFF.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 2: Standard 16 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Standard 16 KB cartridge, that occupies 16 KB of address space between
$8000 and $BFFF.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 3: OSS two chip 16 KB cartridge (034M) |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
NOTE: This cartridge image format has been obsoleted by Type 45 because its
order of banks is incorrect (i.e. the order in a physical cartridge's ROM
chips is different). This format is still supported by the CART file format
for backward compatibility.
The cartridge occupies 8 KB of address space between $A000 and $BFFF. Its
memory is divided into 4 banks, 4 KB each. Bank number 3 (the last one) is
always mapped to $B000-$BFFF. Bank in $A000-$AFFF is selected by an access to
$D500-$D5FF. Only 4 lowest bits of address are significant:
- $D5x0 selects bank 0.
- $D5x1 is not useful - it selects banks 0 and 1 (the bytes are binary AND of
the corresponding bytes from banks 0 and 1).
- $D5x3 or $D5x7 selects bank 1.
- $D5x4 selects bank 2.
- $D5x5 is not useful - it selects banks 1 and 2 (the bytes are binary AND of
the corresponding bytes from banks 1 and 2).
- $D5x2 or $D5x6 is not useful. It disables ROM (there are $FF bytes in
$A000-$AFFF).
- $D5x8-$D5xF disables whole cartridge (enables computer's memory in address
space between $A000 and $BFFF).
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 4: Standard 32 KB 5200 cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Standard 32 KB cartridge for Atari 5200, that occupies 32 KB of address
space between $4000 and $BFFF.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 5: DB 32 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
A 32 KB bank-switched cartridge. There are 4 banks. Bank 3 is mapped to
$A000-$BFFF. Bank in $8000-$9FFF is selected by an access to $D500-$D5FF.
Two lowest bits of address select bank 0, 1, 2 or 3.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 6: Two chip 16 KB 5200 cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
In Atari 5200 there's 32 KB of address space reserved for the cartridge
($4000-$BFFF). A two chip 16 KB cartridge is mapped that way:
- First 8 KB are mapped into lower 16 KB. Since an address line is not
connected, $4000-$5FFF and $6000-$7FFF contain same data, which is first
half of the cartridge image.
- Similarly, second 8 KB are mapped into upper 16 KB.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 7: Bounty Bob Strikes Back 40 KB 5200 cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The cartridge with "Bounty Bob Strikes Back" game uses very strange
bank switching method:
- Four 4 KB banks (0,1,2,3) are mapped into $4000-$4FFF. An access to $4FF6
selects bank 0, $4FF7 - bank 1, $4FF8 - bank 2, $4FF9 - bank 3.
- Four 4 KB banks (4,5,6,7) are mapped into $5000-$5FFF. An access to $5FF6
selects bank 4, $5FF7 - bank 5, $5FF8 - bank 6, $5FF9 - bank 7.
- The remaining 8 KB is mapped to upper 16 KB of cartridge address space
in Atari 5200. That is, $8000-$9FFF and $A000-$BFFF contain same data.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 8: 64 KB Williams cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The cartridge has 8 banks mapped to $A000-$BFFF. An access to $D500 selects
bank 0, $D501 - bank 1, etc. An access to $D508-$D50F disables
the cartridge.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 9: Express 64 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The cartridge has 8 banks mapped to $A000-$BFFF. An access to $D577 selects
bank 0, $D576 - bank 1, etc. An access to $D578-$D57F disables
the cartridge.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 10: Diamond 64 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The cartridge has 8 banks mapped to $A000-$BFFF. An access to $D5D7 selects
bank 0, $D5D6 - bank 1, etc. An access to $D5D8-$D5DF disables
the cartridge.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 11: SpartaDOS X 64 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The cartridge has 8 banks mapped to $A000-$BFFF. It also contains an
additional cartridge slot which allows to plug a second cartridge in.
An access to $D5E7 selects bank 0, $D5E6 - bank 1, etc. down to $D5E0. An
access to $D5E8-$D5EB disables the SDX cartridge and enables the second
cartridge. An access to $D5EC-$D5EF disables both cartridges.
Accesses to all addresses on page D5 always reaches the second cartridge,
even if it is disabled by SpartaDOS or if the SpartaDOS cartridge itself is
enabled.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 12: XEGS 32 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
This bank-switched cartridge occupies 16 KB of address space between $8000
and $BFFF. The cartridge memory is divided into 4 banks, 8 KB each.
Bank 3 (the last one) is always mapped to $A000-$BFFF. Two lowest bits of
a byte written to $D500-$D5FF select the bank mapped to $8000-$9FFF.
The initially selected bank is random, although it seems that 0 gets chosen
the most often. Atari800 always selects bank 0 initially.

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 13: XEGS 64 KB cartridge (banks 0-7) |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
One of the two variants of the 64 KB XEGS cartridge, that's built on either
a C100649 board with the W1 solder point not connected, or a C026449 board
with pin 9 of the 74LS374 chip unconnected.
This bank-switched cartridge occupies 16 KB of address space between $8000
and $BFFF. The cartridge memory is divided into 8 banks, 8 KB each.
Bank 7 (the last one) is always mapped to $A000-$BFFF. Three lowest bits of
a byte written to $D500-$D5FF select the bank mapped to $8000-$9FFF.
The initially selected bank is random, although it seems that 0 gets chosen
the most often. Atari800 always selects bank 0 initially.

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 14: XEGS 128 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Built on either a C100649 board with the W1 solder point connected, or a
C026449 board.
This bank-switched cartridge occupies 16 KB of address space between $8000
and $BFFF. The cartridge memory is divided into 16 banks, 8 KB each.
Bank 15 (the last one) is always mapped to $A000-$BFFF. Four lowest bits of
a byte written to $D500-$D5FF select the bank mapped to $8000-$9FFF.
The initially selected bank is random, although it seems that 0 gets chosen
the most often. Atari800 always selects bank 0 initially.

+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 15: OSS one chip 16 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
There are two types of OSS 16KB cartridges; this is the later, simpler one.
Used by BASIC XL 1.03, Action! 3.6, MAC/65 1.1 and BASIC XE 4.1 (and possibly
also by later versions of the above software).
It consists of one 16 KB ROM chip.
The cartridge occupies 8 KB of address space between $A000 and $BFFF. Its
memory is divided into 4 banks, 4 KB each. Bank number 0 (the first one) is
always mapped to $B000-$BFFF. Bank in $A000-$AFFF is selected by an access to
$D500-$D5FF. Only bits 0 and 3 of address are significant:
- A3=0, A0=0 - selects bank 1
- A3=0, A0=1 - selects bank 3
- A3=1, A0=0 - disables cartridge (enables computer's memory in address space
between $A000 and $BFFF)
- A3=1, A0=1 - selects bank 2
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 16: One chip 16 KB 5200 cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
16 KB cartridge for Atari 5200, that occupies 16 KB of address space
between $8000 and $BFFF.
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| Type 17: Decoded Atrax 128 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
The Atrax cartridge has its address and data lines intermixed as a kind of
copy protection - dumping a ROM chip directly would result in a dump that
would need decoding before reading data. This cartridge type represents
a decoded ROM dump, for example as a result of dumping by reading the
cartridge using an Atari computer. The original, non-decoded dump is
represented by Type 68: Atrax 128 KB cartridge.
This bank-switched cartridge occupies 8 KB of address space between $A000
and $BFFF. The cartridge memory is divided into 16 banks, 8 KB each.
If a byte written to $D500-$D5FF has highest bit set, the cartridge is
disabled. Otherwise four lowest bits select the bank mapped to $A000-$BFFF.

the corresponding bytes from banks 0 and 2).
- $D5x3 or $D5x7 selects bank 2.
- $D5x4 selects bank 1.
- $D5x5 is not useful - it selects banks 1 and 2 (the bytes are binary AND of
the corresponding bytes from banks 1 and 2).
- $D5x2 or $D5x6 is not useful. It disables ROM (there are $FF bytes in
$A000-$AFFF).
- $D5x8-$D5xF disables whole cartridge (enables computer's memory in address
space between $A000 and $BFFF).

| Type 46: Blizzard 4 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
A 4 KB cartridge, that occupies 8 KB of address space between $A000
and $BFFF. Line A12 is unconnected, so the cartridge's memory is duplicated
in $A000-$AFFF and $B000-$BFFF. The cartridge starts in enabled state and can
be disabled by an access to $D500-$D5FF. Re-enabling is possible only by
turning the computer off and on. Some units contain a RESET button that
allows to enable the cartridge without touching the power button.

| Type 47: AST 32 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
This cartridge occupies 8 KB of address space between $A000 and $BFFF. The
cartridge memory is divided into 128 banks, 256 B each. On power on, bank 0
is visible in $A000-$BFFF (repeated 32 times) and also in $D500-$D5FF. A
write operation to $D500-$D5FF disables the cartridge (freeing the
$A000-$BFFF area) and selects the next 256-byte bank visible at $D500-$D5FF.
After bank 31 the write operation selects bank 0 again.

| Type 48: Atrax SDX 64 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
A variant of Type 11: SpartaDOS X 64 KB cartridge. The banking scheme is
identical, but the address and data lines between the cartridge port and the
ROM chip are interleaved as follows:
(Left - cartridge port + bank select lines, right - EPROM pins)
A0 - A6
A1 - A7
A2 - A12
A3 - A15
A4 - A14
A5 - A13

D0 - Q4
D1 - Q0
D2 - Q5
D3 - Q1
D4 - Q7
D5 - Q6

| Type 54: SIC! 128 KB cartridge |
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Cartridge memory is divided into 8 banks, each 16KB long and consisting of
two 8KB subbanks. Each subbank can be mapped to Atari memory or switched
off. The lower subbank always maps to $8000-$9FFF, while the upper one always
maps to $A000-$BFFF.
Control register address is $D500-$D51F mirrored, read/write (written value
can be read at any time).
Bit 7 = 0 - flash write-protection is on
Bit 6 = 0 - odd 8k block (upper subbank) present in $A000-$BFFF
Bit 5 = 0 - even 8k block (lower subbank) not present in $8000-$9FFF
Bits 4..3 - unused
Bits 2..0 - 16KB bank number (0..7)
Default value = 0 which means 0 bank upper subbank in address $A000-$BFFF
To switch cart off - poke $40 info $D500-$D51F
The cartridge also supports programming of the Flash ROM - this feature is
currently not emulated.
