rc2014 Z80 micro:bit 8 bit UART

This project was created on 06/13/2016 and last updated 4 months ago.

Description

Despite a limited display resolution of 5x5 pixels, and a keyboard that has just 2 buttons, the BBC micro:bit actually harnesses all the power to make it a useful companion to my RC2014 Z80 based computer.

In particular, I am wanting to investigate storing BASIC programs in the micro:bit flash that can be "typed" in to the serial port of the RC2014
