Focal runs on KIM-1 Simulator
KIM-1 Simulator version 1.1.6 has been published. Get it here.
It now supports Focal-V3D 12-AUG-77 (the Aresco version) from the KIM-1 Software page, see here.
Updates to the Simulator are a working echo suppression (see here for background). Available to any program.
For Focal V3D a setting has to be made in the Settings, to allow Focal to do its magic in the input routine.
By working on Focal I did add comments to the disassembly of what I found. You will find the original by Paul R. Santa-Marie and my partly commented version in the archive.

Testing the 6530-002 RRIOT with a KIM-1
This article is written by Jeff M. Nay, about his experiments to restore a KIM-1 to working order. The challenge was to address the second 6530-002 in this setup at another address then the onboard 6530-002 RRIOT.The experiment was a success, the 6530-002 is indeed in a bad state, the ROM is corrupt and it had to be replaced.The KIM-1, from a friend, was in a bad state. The repair was a success also. He was able to get this old KIM-1 working again, after only having to replace, the 6502 CPU, the 6530-002 RRIOT Chip with a Corsham 6530 Replacement board, all 8 Memory Chips and the U17 7406 inverter.

KIM-1 and TIM updates
I have added the following to the KIM-2 KIM-3-KIM-4 KIM-5 KIM-6 pages:
– brochure with photos and descriptions and pricelist KIM System Products
– photos of KIM-2 and KIM4 with KIM-4 motherboard with KIM-3b, KIM-5, KIM-6
– brochure TIM System Development Aid with pricelist
The brochure of KIM-5 etc is from Commodore, the KIM-2 RAM was already dropped for a higher capacity KIM-3B. The KIM-5 was still mentioned as product. Alas I have never seen or heard of a KIM-5 in the hands of a user. So the ROMS are lost alas.

KIM-4 with KIM-3B, KIM-5, KIM-6

Lost pages of Andrew Jacobs
The late Andrew Jacobs set up a web site with relevant 6502 information. It is lost now.
This site is reproduced here. Scripts and links are removed, it is clean code now.
Also have a look at his github archive, it is still up.
Enter the local hosted Andrew Jacobs 6502 site here!

KIM-1 Circuit Diagram high resolution poster, cleaned up again
A couple of weeks I published the KIM-1 Circuit Diagram in high resolution, cleaned up by Joshy of Forum64.
Since then I saw people print the poster, and I did have myself made a mouse mat and a poster in KIM-1 format.
To let the printing company do its work I made two new versions of the poster:
- KIM-1 Circuit Diagram in high resolution, cleaned up by Joshy of Forum64 and cleaned up again by me (year 1975, some artefacts
- KIM-1 Circuit Diagram in high resolution, cleaned up with wide borders (for canvas prints)
Look at the KIM-1 Manuals page for those new, large files images.
