KIM-1 Enhancement PROM

This source for an enhancement of the KIM-1 contains Jim Butterfield’s Supertape and some other utilities and code.
The PROM is to be placed on top of memory, it contains the RESET/NMI/IRQ vectors.

OUP/M – A 6502 CP/M Operating system

A thesis by Jian – Xiong Shao, 1983, titled OUP/M – A 6502 Operating system, contains a floppy disk based operating system for the 6502. It is modelled after CP/M and follows the same design principles.
In the development of OUP/M, an OSI C-3 microcomputer system was used. This system consists of a 6502 CPU, a dual 8-inch floppy disk drive, a console, a printer, and 56 K bytes of RAM.
On this machine all I/O is memory mapped and address space layout has to be taken into consideration.

For years only the document was available, archived on archive.org, with the source in the document.
Jian – Xiong Shao did not publish more 6502 code, further implementations are unknown.

See the OUP/M page for sources and binaries found on osiweb.

More Elektor Junior

I think I am for now finished with the Junior pages:

Elektor Junior pages updated

After several years so much new and correct information has been coming in!

While I was studying the Comal interpreter, I want to port it to the KIM-1, I realised the Elektor pages required some updating and reorganising.
I could not find easy what I needed: circuits and source listings. So I extracted the circuits from the articles and checked the various listings with the ROMs I had in my archive.
Also the sources that appeared the last years were checked, adapted and the binaries compared with the hex dumps. Some surprises, many faults and not with the correct names.
The ESS numbers are now attached to the ROMs.

Now you can have all the essential Elektor Junior information from base to full system with checked ROMs, with sources, step by step.

The complete archive of articles and books is also updated, especially the English articles are as complete as possible.

Have a look at the Elektor Junior pages!

With thanks to the many persons and fora that helped me to collect the information.

Italian Junior articles archive

I found scans of the Italian Elektor magazine 1-62 on the web! Here you find the relevant Junior/6502/Z80 articles from those magazines in a (large!) PDF archive.
