Re: ez80

1999-09-23 Thread Jacco Bot

Detailed description from the ZIlog pdf file.. the 16MB part is quite 
interesting...

Z80 High-Performance Microprocessor Core. The eZ80 is one of the fastest 
8-bit CPUs available today, executing code 4 times faster than a standard 
Z80 operating at the same clock speed. The increased processing efficiency 
can be used to improve available bandwidth or to decrease power consumption.
Both the increased clock speed and processor efficiency features provides 
eZ80 customers 16 times the processing performance. This processing power 
rivals performance customers would normally expect from 16-bit 
microprocessors.

16 MB Linear Address. The eZ80 is also the first 8-bit microprocessor to 
support 16 MB linear addressing—a feature that addresses large memories that 
support complex software applications.
Each software module, or each task under a real-time executive or operating 
system, can operate in Z80-compatible (64 KB) mode, Z80180-compatible mode 
(1 MB MMU) mode, or full 24-bit (16 MB) address mode.

Internet-Ready. A complete TCP/IP stack is also offered so customers can 
design products that connect to the Internet.
Multiply and Accumulate. A Multiply and Accumulate engine operates in
parallel with the eZ80 processor to calculate a sum of products that is the 
core of digital signal processing. The MAC provides 16x16 multiply and 
40-bit accumulation.

ZDI. The ZiLOG Debug Interface is a 2-pin communication port. When used with 
the ZiLOG Develop Suite (ZDS) software, ZDI provides on-chip emulation.

  According to Zilog, the specifications are still under construction,
  and they specifically warn that product deliverability may be a problem.
  Not quite the recommendations for starting the zilion-and-first
  MSX-3 project...

If eZ80 is fully compatible with Z80, perhaps will be possible replace
Z80 with eZ80 in existing MSX...

Not in my browser, I have IE 5.0 and it just closed all windows. I mean, if 
you want people to see your page, make it compatible. I know that microsofts 
IE is not 100 compatible with java, but, it runs about 3 times faster than 
netscape, so yeah I use it, and I'm not ashamed of it.
and it is petty thinking that doomed MSX, people wanting to make money out 
of a hobby. I'm not talking about the big guys, I'm talking about the little 
guys, remember sparrowsoft? HSH? all that shit?
If we want to enjoy MSX in the future, charge only what you have to for your 
software, try to not do it for the profit guys, and try to make pages on the 
web accessible for everyone, I'm not going to install Netscape just to view 
your page. So if it doesn't work, too bad. My phylosophy is that a page 
should work in every browser, just because people use IE, it is as simple as 
that. If you say, hey but IE is incompatible, you are right, but you also 
exclude a large number of people from your site.
  Lets stop this nonsense of barking at microsoft, Bill won't sleep a minute 
less for it. Instead lets focus on the things we have and we can work with. 
Like phoenix, a great idea. So please stop the nonsense like "it won't run

   It runs on Internet Explorer, but on the first time it leads you to a

our Internet World. Try entering again and you'll se that you

   The reason of this is that IE4.0 IS NOT 100% PURE JAVA, one

 Success is not about what is better/best it is about marketing.

That may be your opinion, but I cannot agree.
For everything you do you can define success in a different way.

For example for software, you can define success as profit. You can also
define it as number of users. But maybe you're the happiest if some piece
of software runs exactly like you want, even if it's only on your very own
computer. It's a decision any individual or organisation makes for itself.

Just say that microsoft is not successful...come on, who are we fooling...


 And what about all the lockups on my MSX? Vampire Killer, I managed to 
lock
 my MSX every time I played it (ordinary philips 8250)

And was that the original version?

It sure was...the konami cartridge...

I had a 128K crack, which locked up very often, but that is the cracker's
fault, not Konami's.

Isn't that illegal?? ;-)


 that is the essence
 of software, it is virtually impossible writing bug-free software
 even for microsoft.

Bug-free software is theoretically possible (you can proove programs are

prove it =) maybe for a program like
1 print"hello world"
but for any other program with branches which are executed according
to the setting of a flag, of which it is not possible to predict at what 
time that flag will be toggled, it is not. Examples of such branches are 
interrupts. In a multitasking environment this is even worse, there is no 
way to predict in what state a program is at any period in time, except 
maybe for very simple programs.
Another thing to consider, programs are written by people, people make 
errors...it is as simple as that, really.

correct), but in practice it is too cumbersome to do for whole programs.
But better quality than Microsoft provides is possible. I actually think
they can do it better, I bet they just calculated how much writing better
software would cost and found out that increased sales would not compensate
for the extra cost.

Correct, that is a marketing decision. Profit/cost analysis.


 You wish you worked for Bill...ha..

If money is your only reason for working... yes.
Otherwise, there are more rewarding and relaxed jobs.

Well, I argue that the guys who started out at microsoft, had some stock 
bonusses, and are now retired at the age of 39 with a couple of million in 
their accounts have a very relaxed time...and rewarding...
I saw one of them in a documentary on IT-boomers, he had his own helicopter 
platform and of course a matching helicopter and he flew people around for 
fun, just because that was his passion... sounds very relaxed...

About eletronic, you can download the file Ym2413.pdf from
ftp.yamahayst.com\pub\Fax_Back_Doc\Sound\
It has 4.906Kb, due to that I am unable to send for you by email. ;-)

You need "Acrobat Reader" to see this file.

Re: Popularity of VDP OPL

1999-05-27 Thread Jacco Bot

Hi there,

VDP's are used a lot in other systems, to name one example that I have 
experience with: I had a IBM-compatible XT from SpectraVideo (Was it called 
X-press?) and it had a V9938 in there. The operating system was MS-dos, it 
had a version of GW-basic that was extended to use the VDP. Sprites though 
weren't supported by that basic. To get sprites, I had to program the VDP 
directly, which was a lot of fun. Great about it was that the power of the 
VDP was combined with a 16-bit processor and a 640kB memory (now banks to 
switch, segments though). I got rid of it later when I bought a 386 and a 
turboR, and I regret the fact that I did.

Were VDPs starting from 9938 (MSX2 MSX-VIDEO) featured in other non-MSX
systems?

Which VDP models were actually produced? Has Yamaha eaten the whole
production of 9990s (apart from the few inside the GFX9000s)? Have they
been used in other equipment or appliances (VTRs, TVs, CD/LD players, 
etc.)?

Same goes for OPL chips.

Just trying to port my games to more exotic platforms 8;)

Kiss you lot.

Re: joynet serial transfer routine

 We still have to dream up a cable to connect the MSX-Joynet cable to the
 PC parallel port.

 Ehm.. It may sound like a terribly stupid idea, but why not using the joystick
 port(s) of the PC for 'emulating' the joystickports?

 (Hmmm first answer to my own Q: because the PC joystick ports can't be
  written to?)

 Eric

Correct, the PC joystick ports are analog, the joysticks of a pc merely consist of
two variable resistors and four digital inputs for buttons (for two joysticks,
they go on the same port, or for one joystick, like the famous pad). The digital
pc-joysticks all have some circuitry to transform digital inputs into resistance.
The circuitry for this is simple however and can be an option to implement a
digital input.
