Eduardo Casino has created a faithful replica of the Jolt single board computer. Tested! Working!
The replica design is available on GitHub, A faithful reproduction of the JOLT




A faithful replica of the Microcomputer Associates Inc. JOLT computer, based on photos and information gathered from various sources on the internet.
The JOLT was the first 6502‑based computer kit to be commercially released, beating the KIM‑1 to market by several weeks; the latter would launch in January of the following year. It is a small SBC featuring a 6820 PIA and the 6530‑004 RIOT, also known as TIM‑1. It includes 512 bytes of RAM, a teletype interface, and an RS‑232 interface. The 6530‑004 contains, in its 1K ROM, the monitor software DEMON, also simply referred to as TIM.
