Oh dear, something for hardcore hobbyists who won't stop at anything. But it works.

A forum colleague from robotics technology brought me a couple of EPROM files in the format usable for the KC. For this I have an EPROM burner. The handicrafts will only be in January.

Something like this was built in the GDR era. In German, however.

With the 1.77 MHz of the KC there were timing problems, so you can use another method, state-oriented programming. For the C64, i.e. 6502 CPU, the SIO 6850 was used.

Page 3 is the 256 bytes area from $300 to $3FF where all the I/O registers (VIA, Floppy Disk Controller, ...) are mapped.

thanks...

I could try that. The first drawing addresses the 16K EPROM from C000h, as I can see. And therefore far easier than that of the Z1013. The problem with the Z1013 is that there is a 1K image memory in the 16K block from EC00h to F000h. That's why I had to castrate the 2nd 2716 in half during the repl...

First I had to think about what was meant by D-toggle, i.e. a flip-flop. But what is meant on page 3 is still a mystery to me. The presented plan can be used as an aid to find a solution. Well, the 6502 is a bit different than the Z 80. Although I usually have a clone of the Z80. The 74138 is actual...

Hi there, I would like to connect external ROM and RAM (static) to an Oric-1 16K. The lines / MAP and O1 (O2) are used for this purpose. How do I have to understand these lines? An external ROM idea would be the Diagnostic ROM and possibly the EXBASIC 1.1. Since the structure is similar to that of t...
