  • Hacklet 38 - 6502 Projects

  • The 6502 CPU is probably the most famous of all the 8-bit processors out there, whether in the form of bare chips for homebrew computers, or as slightly modified derivative chips found in everything from the C64, the NES, and the BBC Micro. For this...
  • Ode to My Oscilloscope...

  • I love my oscilloscope almost as much as one can love a machine... My oscilloscope is *both* analog *and* digital. This ain't no small potatoes... We're talking: Its "bandwidth" is 20MHz, but I've diagnosed signals up to 128MHz, by adjusting various...
  • The Beast spotted in the wild

  • Hey guys, we're back with a new update on The Beast. We were just at Maker Faire Rome last week, and we had the pleasure of being featured on one of Make's live facebook videos! Take a look at the video below, jump at the 8.00 mark for Resin & Beast!...
  • Transferring of tape begins

  • There were a few rare recordings left in the apartment, so it was time to clean the 30 year old beast & fire it up. Transferring tape to the Zoom replacement was an eye opener because the 30 year old tape deck's VU meter only showed but a tiny portion...
  • Firefly

  • A Z80 design of my own, though with inspiration from multiple sources. Goal was to correct shortcomings of a board I designed in '98 and give me an easily-extensible platform on which to run CP/M and tinker. It's modular in the spirit of an RC2014 but...

  • Log#48 : Virtual Load and Store

  • By whygee on Monday 24 September 2012, 23:03 - Architecture The Instruction Set Manual is nearing completion. As if things weren't serious enough, I'm now reviewing the Load and Store instructions. And since there is none, I removed them. Confused ?...
  • Crystal vs RC osc

  • I got a board made of rev 5.1 - the same as the 5.0.2 board but with the footprints added for a 3.2x2.5mm 4-pad crystal and two loading caps on the R port pins. I built that board this evening with a 16 MHz crystal in place, and added support in the...
  • The big schematic update of 2023

  • Hey, look, it's only been two months! And this time I have a really juicy update! I finally completed the schematics for ALL boards on the phone, including those pesky "hybrid" ceramic modules! Well, almost, the one thing that's missing is the ceramic...
  • Parts, parts, parts...

  • Circuit design is like speaking a language. You have vocabulary (parts) made of letters (transistors and gates), grammar (how a few parts interact to provide a macrofunction), sentences, paragraphs... The semantic is what the whole is meant to do. In...
