This document, the FP11-E Floating-Point Processor User's Guide (1st Edition, December 1977), is a comprehensive technical reference for the FP11-E hardware option, which extends the capabilities of the PDP-11/60 CPU. The guide details the floating-point instruction set, the data formats used (integer and floating-point), and the architecture of the FP11-E's internal components. It covers the interaction between the CPU and the processor, including timing and signals, and provides descriptions of the internal data manipulation components such as the FALU, MULNET, FNUA, and EXPONENT boards. Additionally, it offers programming examples and complete installation procedures for integrating the FP11-E into a PDP-11/60 system.
