MiSTer FPGA Forum

Hi,

hope this forum is the right place for this. Over a couple of weekends I've created a basic core for the following "semi-home-brew" computer system from the 80s/90s (unfortunately largely in German language):

http://www.ndr-nkc.de/

It was tailored to an educational introduction of basic IT technology from that time and uses a modular concept, where different IO cards, processors etc. could be joined over a parallel bus backplane.

So far I've come to a minmum viable solution, consisting of the T80 CPU, keyboard adapter and graphic card (it uses the EF9366 graphic processor, the implementation of which I consider the main contribution). Time allowing, I'd like to add a few more cards and maybe also get CP/M or 68k option up and running.

If there is interest in including this core into the project, I'd be happy to clean up my code.

Best Regards,
Oliver

P.S: Thanks to all the contributors to this great project and FPGA framework! Had many hours of fun with it.

Thank You(Dankeschön)

There is a similar kind of project that is already officially part of the project. I don't know about the level of interest, just saying.

Hi,

thanks for the Feedback! My impression is that it's not the core the world has been waiting for

Anyway, I'll take up the suggestion and look whether it makes sense to integrate it into the MultiComp code.

Best Regards,
Oliver

P.S: Once I've honed my Verilog skills, I'll be back with more exciting stuff ...

Oh sorry. I didn't mean there wasn't any interest and didn't mean you should add it into an existing one. Was just showing one similar. Don't be discouraged, sorry heheh.

I like CP/M machines and surely others do.
If you build the core the users will come.
