UART RX Timing board done

A project log for AYTABTU - Discrete Computer

After the apocalypse we have to build computers from stuff we can make at home, I.E Transistors, diodes and resistors.

The UART Receiver timing board is now completed, but I haven't tested/debugged the logic part in real life yet. It works just fine in LTspice, and the individual modules tested ok, so unless there's any soldering errors I expect it to work.

The board holds nine comparators, one ramp generator, one glitch detector and six NAND gates used connected as flip-flops to control the logic and sequencing.

At the right site there's the connector to the D-latch board

This is a modular view of the receiver (the LATCH-part is on a separate board)

Before the logic wiring - beautiful (or at least ok)

After the logic wiring - messy indeed
