Can you check your –5V rail? It should be a solid –5V +/- a few %.Might
also want to check the +5V rail. If the –5V is low or is very unstable then……
It is most likely due bad electrolytic caps. The contrast on the screen is
controlled by the –5V.
Unfortunately the caps will need to be
Hi all-
Anything in particular I can do to fix a flickering display? It's just
started happening. It was doing it on an AC adapter so I unhooked that and
put in four fresh AAs, but it kept doing it. I did open it up and checked

find anything about the cables or the pinout of the connector.
BTW my unit could have a
Thanks for setting this up! I’ve downloaded several games and a couple of

perspective, but I realize it represents a lot of work behind the scenes.
Perhaps I missed it in a prior part of the thread, but it would be great

The seeming conundrum of 16-bit addressing of > 64K
is accomplished by switching "Banks" of memory - For
instance my 8201a has a 32K ROM, & 3 banks of 32K
RAM which may be addressed at any one time.
Further, there's a system bus connector which allows a
plug-in 128K RAM cartridge

Well the 8085 only has 64k
Is that correct? 2 Meg of ROM but only 32K of RAM? I thought the Z80
could only address 64K of memory at a time.
And BTW, in case no one has said it, thank you for helping keep the list
a fun place to be. :-)
