[Ben Eater] posted some videos of an 8-bit computer with no CPU chip that he built completely on a breadboard a few years ago. After being asked for schematics, he finally admitted that he didn&#82… ...

An Arduino is also used to upload the microinstructions to the NVRAM ... The last step, according to Hovey's blog, is to design a steampunk-style case for his 8-bit computer.

The Arduino can only clock the 8-bit CPU at 95kHz in software which may sound a bit low to those familiar with 1980s home computers, but it’s best to think of this as an experimentation platform ...

I made this Arduino 8 bit binary led counter as a solution for one member from Arduino forum. He asked if somebody can make a project that displays a decimal number in 8 bit binary format using 8 leds ...

Raspberry Pi also has a broader selection of I/Os, such as an audio jack, more USB ports, and more. And with 40 general-purpose I/O (GPIO) pins, you can even daisy chain multiple Raspberry Pis ...

I became aware of computers in about 1977-78 when a S100 CP/M system took up weeks of my time with ADVENTUR.COM. I went through 8-bit, 16-bit and everything ...

"The long-awaited Arduino Due just hit the market, replacing the 8-bit, 16MHz brain of the popular Uno microcontroller prototyping platform with a 32-bit, 84MHz processor, while augmenting inputs ...

Arduino Hacking - A History Anyone who has ever hacked around in their PC will have been hit with an urge to take their tinkering to the next level and create a custom-built device, but few ...

The long-awaited Arduino Due just hit the market, replacing the 8-bit, 16 MHz brain of the popular Uno microcontroller prototyping platform with a 32-bit, 84 MHz processor, while augmenting inputs ...

Kyle Hovey has decided to build his own 8-bit CPU from scratch, out of breadboard, NVRAM chips, surface-mount transistors, and lots and lots of wire -- and he's blogged his experience, so you can ...
