Hardware Tools

This section contains tools that help building - and debugging - hardware.
  • probe Logic probe
    This is a logic probe, that is it determines the logical state of a hardware signal, in this case TTL. Additionally it has a "pulse" circuit, that can indicate signal states even when the actual pulses on the hardware signal are too short to be noticed. And it has a latch, so that a signal can be sampled at a high-low or low-high transition of a second signal.
  • vhdl VHDL
    VHDL is a hardware description language, that also allows to simulate electronic circuits. I did some work with VHDL on various boards, and have written up my experience.
  • scope Oscilloscope comparison
    An oscilloscope is a very good tool for the analysis of problems with electronics I got me a new oscilloscope and have written up my first experience and a comparison with my old scope.

hot!

Dive into the retro feeling and build yourself a Micro-PET or a Multi-board Commodore 4032 replica

Need more speed? Speed up your 6502 computer with this 10 MHz 6502 CPU accelerator board

Interested in electronics design? Look at the design lesson I got from Bil Herd, the hardware designer of the C128

Want 64bit? - pimp the 6502 with the 65k processor design!
