Designing and building an 8 bit computer - New series Ep1 - Intro

Introduction to a new series of videos designing and building an 8 bit computer. The principles of which can be applied to more advanced systems. In the upcoming videos we will look at all the principles in making our computer work, from the hardware to designing a "good" OS.

Ways to say thank you

Use the Super Thanks Button (if available) under the video

Patreons have access to all videos early plus can view all the posts on Patreon. There are other rewards if you're interested. If you just want to watch videos then that's also fantastic because without people viewing I wouldn't even do half of what I do. So thanks very much :)

built the Elektor 6502 single board computer in the 80's, thanks for re-kindling the intrest, looking forward to following the series

Great! - Looking very much forward to this series :-)

Did some Pic assembly back in the 90's, remember having to count instruction cycles to get the timing right. None of that now with C and arduino! Ah the good old days.

They do make them new. You can overclock them to 25Mhz no sweat, people have done 40mhz... Let's go!

This sounds really interesting. I have read a couple of books about basic computing but my old grey cells struggle a bit so I'll definitely be following along to see what I can learn and if it makes it all become a bit clearer! Is this going to end up with a Ben eater size board? Anyone deciding to try this I'd advise you don't skimp on cheapo breadboard as connections can be fairly ropey! Looking forward to part two!

Memories, had a zx81 and did some 6502 asm on C64 years ago. I would say excel, but prefer calc.

6809 is better then the 6502. if you like it fast and have some ASM-Code then the faster 65816 with 14 MHz is a good choice.
8-Bit still lives and programs are shorter then the code for 16-Bit and 32-Processors. I like this kinds of projects .today we have better ROMs and RAMs but no Chip for HDMI-Output . A fast 10“ TFT for graphics is a good alternative instead of the old VGA. For education is VGA great but to old.
