“The CMOS series of integrated circuits appeared shortly after the TTL series. This means that at the beginning of the 70s it was available on the market in an accessible way for any user. Hence the nostalgia of those who …
“MikroLeo project files (schematic, PCB, assembler, emulator/debugger, circuit simulation file, documentation, example of programs etc). MikroLeo is a 4-bit microcomputer developed mainly for educational purposes and distributed for free under open-source licenses. 4-bit Didactic Microcomputer The project is in …
“Retro clock with seven segment display, WDC65C02 microprocessor and SP0256 voice synthesis chip. Few years ago I began my experiments with retro microprocessors. Their eventual result was a design of board consisting WDC65C02 CPU, EPROM, static RAM chip and couple …
“Suddenly, I got the idea to make a line follower robot without using a microcontroller. After that, I started researching this topic but can’t find any proper guidance. So I started simulating and building logic for each functionality, such …
“Blinking RGB LEDs with 555s and a handful of 74-series logic The goal of this project is to display colorful patterns on a strip of WS2812 or SK6812 RGB LEDs (aka NeoPixels) without the help of an MCU. Addressable RGB …
“After various experiments and failed attempts to design a 7400-based computer, I came to a quite minimalistic 8-bit approach which is nevertheless pretty versatile and can utilize a surprisingly large amount of memory resources. The CPU core itself executes its …
“32 bit RISC-V homemade In this article I will describe how I designed and made a functional 32 bit RISC-V CPU at home. Specifications: “Max” clock speed: 500 kHz Program memory: 512 kB RAM size: 512 kB VGA …
“Frequency counter (reciprocal) Gate time selectable from 0.1 second up to 60 seconds Frequency range from 0.1 Hz up to 10 MHz (tested) Input 3.3V and 5V safe Uses a STM32F103C8 (Blue Pill) and 16x4 LCD Supplies …
“This project is 7400 series logic ICs based clock. It keeps time solely based on discrete logic ICs and a stable clock source. For the display LEDs, I am using common anode 7 segment displays. This variant is 0.56 …
“The MK1 CPU is composed of several modules, all connected trough a common 8-bit BUS, the status of each module is shown by dedicated LEDs. The clock module is designed to allow step-by-step execution; in automatic mode the clock speed …
