Re: Project update

MMU and serial ports are likely a lot simpler than the instruction
set. I am into Z180's so I'll probably try to do something there but
I am not so experienced.

I have just recently got some larger fpga's so will be doing some
more soon, a 16k zx81 fits very comfortably in a XCV1000E, 8K Ram
zx81 fits in a XCV800.

I can not fit things in as well as Daniel as I am only using xilinx
tools.

I think I will try some of the onchip stuff from the z180 but I am
not up to tackling the microcode yet.

In the meantime I am seeing how fast I can get a ZX81 to go in fast
mode (anyone got a use for a 200Mhz ZX81?)

cya, Andrew...

Have you worked on any of this? I'm mostly interested in the TRS80 since it's what I learned to program on. I am also interested in adding 64180...

Actually, after looking at the code I thought most of the instructions wouldn't be that difficult. SLEEP would require a little work to fully implement but...

The instruction timing is different. It could be done, it would take a lot of work. I guess if it was slowly migrated it would be handy, some of my z180 code ...

If you run the processor at a faster speed code like that would break anyway. There's only one piece of code I've written that would work that that way that I...
