PDP-8 diagnostic tests

2016-08-23 Thread Scott Baker
Hi, I have written a PDP-8 VHDL model and I have it running in an FPGA https://github.com/scottlbaker/PDP8-SOC At this time it has passed a basic DEC diagnostic instruction test but I found some interesting things when getting that instruction test to pass. For example: The following segment of

Hi, The author of this project http://www.pdp11gy.com built a wire-wrapped board to interface an RL02 controller (RL11, RLV21, or RL8A) and an FPGA development board (which does all the heavy lifting for the disk emulation). I decided to build one of these

Hi* >> Any chance it could be put into 'production'? *I placed an order today for 3 RL02 emulator interface boards from OshPark. I expect it will take 2 weeks to get the boards back from OshPark. I am leveraging RL02 emulator work from Reinhard Heuberger, but I am using a newer FPGA board than

Bootable 8" floppy needed for PDP-11/23

2016-10-16 Thread Scott Baker
Hi, I have a PDP-11/23 system with a DSD-440 dual 8" floppy drive. On reset, it prints: 28 START? and waits for the operator to insert a bootable 8" floppy and type DY0. The problem is I do not have a bootable 8" floppy. The DSD-440 should be compatible with either RX01 or RX02. Can anyone on

Been lurking for a while, but this topic hits true with some recent experiences. I would not hesitate to buy most common digital ICs on Amazon or ebay, but I usually will not buy analog ICs other than from trusted sources, such as Mouser. I have bought LM2596 voltage regulators that oscillate at
