I might be building a 8 bit computer something like this discuss
Isaiah Cook
Jonathan Mitchell
good for you man
Jack Smith
>Discuss
...what, exactly?
Dylan Bailey
that looks like a pile of trash
Justin Lee
what chips
Levi Cruz
consider etching pcbs over this level of breadbordery
Aaron Johnson
>discuss
No.
Chase Martinez
where is bus
where is alu
where is instruction register
where is a/b... registers
Gabriel Mitchell
Can't you do this in spice instead?
William Phillips
If you don't say what chips then the conversation can't really go anywhere. Everyone has done this before..
Xavier Price

stop with this cheating shit

I've waited for a thread about DIY hardware for months
I can't find any shit about creating a custom GPU ANYWHERE spare for a few youtube videos by an admittedly pretty cool guy.
Has anyone got any information about creating custom expansion card hardware of any kind? I'm talking PCI-E down to ISA.
Nathaniel Garcia
Hmm, have you looked at Ben Eater's channel on yt?

Not OP but thanks!
Adam Williams
Nice spaghetti.
Hudson Williams
Making your own PCIe card would be difficult. The spec is very dense, making it difficult for any one person to comprehend all of it. ISA would be much more doable, both because of the relative simplicity of the standard and you wouldn't be burdened with the difficulties of high speed serial design. An ISA interface could easily be done on something like a Spartan FPGA.
Isaiah Hughes
Cheers
I don't really mind things being slow. I've actually made a paper tape read/punch for storage
an ISA to Punch reader would be a nice project
Gavin Clark
I'm doing something similar at the moment, but it's an analog computer designed to produce video patterns (AKA a video synthesizer), not a digital computer. It's fun.
Cameron Perry
agreed
there are simulators online including assembly. Nothing of value is going to be gained by pic.
Including a number of websites.. Yes.

how does it work? how might I go about learning how to make one?
Jayden Wood

Grayson Moore
this is fucking cool. you got a schematic or the documentation you used?
Asher Torres
I started out programing pixely little things with microcontrollers and learned how video signals work from that. There are a lot of tutorials and example projects for that if you google something like "PIC NTSC".
I wanted to get better an analog electronics so I dropped the microcontrollers and started doing everything in hardware. I've never been able to find any sort of guide or tutorials for that. Had to figure it out myself over a few years. Here's how to draw a circle.
Hudson Miller
just do it on cheap fpga board
Camden Evans
wow you could sell that effect if you record it
I'm a shitty game-dev and would love to have something like this.
Nicholas Rogers
That's very overkill, you can do it way cleaner and simpler.
So if you think you're going to build something like "pic related", then sure, whatever you say Pedro.
John King
clock rate of that bad boy?

The problem with FPGA's is they're in proprietary hell. Are there any reasonable alternatives to Xilinx or Altera (Intel)?
