Geek Rant #6 - My DIY 65816 Computer

This week, I decided to do a little show-and-tell on the 65816-based 'single' board computer that I've been working on on and off for the last three or so years.

[@melanierhianna]

There is another descendent of the 6502 which is interesting. Acorn computers in the UK used 6502s in their System single board machines, the Atom, BBC Micro and BBC Master. They used the 65816 in the Acorn Communicator. But whilst designing it visited The Western Design Centre and found in it to be a handful of guys in a house. Acorn, which was founded by Cambridge University Grads, thought “If they can do it, we can” and designed a 32 bit RISC processor very much inspired by the 6502/65816. It was called the Acorn RISC Machine but that got shortened to ARM. Acorn no longer exists but the processor company they founded does…

[@keithkirkland6508]

The fact you built this is superb work. I think learning more about the “guts” of things makes us better understand how things work. Your project has given me a few ideas!

[@railsrust]

The good news is, if that 65816 ever burns out, you can just replace it pretty easily. They still produce 65C02 and 65C816 processors in DIP packages.

[@kreuner11]

Yep, WDC (Western Design Center) sells them all nearly unaltered, usually for microcontroller purposes

Loved the video! I've been wanting to make a computer out of relays for a long time lol

[@mikemullen5563]

In my dim, distant past with video games (I was on the design team for the Magnavox Odyssey II), I did some work on the 6502 in prep for an new game that never was developed. The 6502 was a bit of a RISC system, where the designers (I dealt with Will Mathys) tweaked the hell out of the chip to minimize silicon size and execution cycles. If you used the original MOS assembler, it listed how many times each instruction was used. This was used to pare the instruction set down to a reasonable size. Thus, there was no subtract, nor a negate. a subraction was thus "complement, increment, add". Unfortunately, there was no macro assembler. This would have made available many of the pseudo instructions that could have made it look like a far more powerful processor. For instance, there was an entire bank of 256 bytes that could have been macro'd to look like 129 16 bit registers, and the appropriate macros made to look like 16 bit instructions. (An examination of the Z80 generated code shows this was used for all the IX and IY instructions, which had a prefix before each 8080 HL instruction to use IX or IY instead). GIven the clock speed advantage, it would have easily given the Z80 a run for it's money.

[@michaellosh1851]

Just saw this video pop up in my recommended. Neat project even if you have not got it to a full working state yet. I will check the newer vids. Back in the day I wanted to build an RCA 1802 "Elf" from chips as published in Popular Electronics magazine, but I was still very young and inexperienced with electronics. Then within a few years all the early home 8-bit computers like TRS-80, Pet, Apple II, etc. came out and allowed me (eventually) to have a computer without building it from scratch. Fast-forward a bunch of years and I'm starting to think about doing something like you did. Actually, I started to dabble with a smallish by today's standards and honestly fairly powerful Xilog Zync FPGA+ARM chip on a "trainer" board, but didn't get too far before I decided to switch over to working on an Atari 2600 game I want to make. But with the Xilog Zync I want to basically ignore the ARM part and implement a CPU, plus all typical home computer stuff like Video, Sound, IO port(s), ROM and RAM in VHDL and run it that way. Maybe some day I will get back to that! Hope you find some more enjoyment from your work!

Nice work. There is so much satisfaction rolling your own SBC like this. I have a few PCBs in my inventory I need to get to work on including a 68010 SBC, several 87C5x boards and 1802 projects....besides my Arduino and Rasp Pi ambitions....I really love those vintage processors, especially the Motorola 680xx series (brings back memories of the early tech days of computing). I also have a couple of FPGA boards I need to tinker with as well.

[@tonyfremont]

Sounds familiar, I'm curious about your 1802 statement. When did you first get exposed to that CPU, and what are your plans for using one? It's how I first got started in home computing in the late 70s. It's not a great architecture, in the scheme of things, but it is something kinda near and dear to me.

Hey man, of note is the fact that I was studying my dad's old TAB pc building books and saying 'some day' for maybe a decade and a half before I finally got the guts to sit down and hack at it until I actually had something booting. I understand your strugs. Also, building something like this -- or even just doing some assembly programming -- will make the concept of a pointer REALLY click

[@CaptZenPetabyte]

Its great, love this, keep going. Im 47yrs old, cut my teeth on z80s using asm & always wanted to make my own computer as well. I think the future of this type of thing is (1) emulation in cad (2) cad to jlpcb & then to (3) home made sbc. Whereas back in my day no emulators were available so it was breadboard iteration after breadboard iteration etc. etc. which is sorta part of the fun and mostly part of the frustration. I programmed asm in 8 and 16bits, started learning asm 32bits and ARM (in the mid 90s?) but it got a little complicated. Thats were my dream ended.

[@neilbradley]

3:16 - I think you mean the 8088! But cool project! And you're right about it being a stretch calling the 65816 a 16 bit CPU. Nice to see a VT420 in action. Cool start to a video card as well. I'm working on one that does character mode and it's surprising how tricky it is to get right. Nice work!

I bought DIP 68ks back in... god, it must have been 2010? Thinking, at the time, 'I'm finally going to sit down and build my own machine for once and for all!'. Then in maybe 2018 I actually started on this machine. And only now am I actually ramping up to do something built around a 68k. So... you actually have a chance here to get it done before I do!

[@AristarcoPalacios]

Cool video! I started making an SBC when at uni, but back then the AVR had just appeared so I made mine with the 8088 but never finished it. I got most of my components from the garbage and got a nice 8284 clock generator. Never turned it on, though. Maybe I'll finish it. You made me want to continue the project.

[@XalphYT]

[@AiOinc1]

This is a really cool project. It makes me want to do this kind of thing again myself, I've really wanted to do this kind of project myself for a long time as well, but I simply don't have the time, space, or really that much money to actually go and do it. Your use of CPLDs gives me ideas, though. Dangerous ideas. Makes me want to do a 6502 project. Also, the PC used an 8088, as opposed to the 8080. Lots of machines used the 8080, but far more used the Z80. The PC and it's clones were the only major users of the 8088 and x86 in general for a very long time, it was an awful architecture by comparison to the 6502, but the huge advantage (at the time) was the 20 bit address space and later the interchangeability for an upgrade path.

[@jamesmorgan7699]

We do use 65x legacy chips today, they are called ARM

[@johnm2012]

I'm in the process of building a hardware binary multiplier for my 6502 computer. I started off with the least significant bit and used an AND gate. Bit 1 uses two AND gates for the two partial products and a half adder to combine them. Bit 2 involves three partial products, plus the carry from bit 1, so three AND gates and two full adders. Bits 7 and 8 are the most complex but it gets easier as you progress further, with bit 15 being simply the carry out of the final adder. The control logic and three registers (8-bit multiplier and multiplicand and 16-bit product) occupy two breadboards while the AND gates and adders take up seven more. It's all built from 74HC-series logic, '08s and '283s for the multipliers, '573s for the registers, and a bit of NAND and NOR for the control logic.

Been so hot so far this year that all I managed to do was test the base system and write the hdl for the glue logic and bank switching :(

[@ClearComplexity]

The IIGS is where I really learned Assembly and then C back in the late 90s (got a woz edition one as a gift from an uncle loaded with the best expansion cards/accelerator you could get at the time) along with a Macintosh IIci in the late 90s. A lot of people back in the day didn't exactly enjoy working with the somewhat wonky architecture. Before the SNES dev kits were done and in the wild early work/testing was done on IIGS because of the similar but not quite the same platform/architecture and they were not thrilled (If I remember right the snes used a fork/derivative of the IIGS made by Ricoh that used an extended 6502 instruction set). In one way we're finally coming around to another theoretical direction where Acorn's ARM platform became the dominate architecture. We're finally getting SBC's with ARM soc's capable of keeping up with, or beating, x86-64 traditional processors. Acorn wanted RISC based processors to be the future and we're finally closer than ever before. I prefer programming low level Assembly on 32/64-bit ARM over x86-64's versions, it's a lot simpler (the name is literally has reduced instruction set in it) and consequently easier to teach people.

[@nix123ism]

I remember way back in the 1990s I was studying at a tech institute and we had to write a short essay on emerging technologies that may change an existing established market in the computer market. I did an essay on the new, at the time, ARM cpus, and why they may replace x86 as the dominant cpu in the market, it wasn't received very well by the teacher and I don't think I got a great grade for my essay, fast forward to today and it dominates the mobile scene and may be making movement into the desktop environment, I remember my teacher making a smart remark, something to the effect that x86 has eclipsed all other cpus and that it has been shown to be the best option , well, funny how things change....

[@wyleong4326]

9:53 Made in Malaysia. I live near the old Motorola factory and actually been inside of it during a school trip. Saw people in lab coats and hairnets; and were told there were a lot of gold somewhere in the facility needed for the chips (but they could be pulling our legs). Very cool to be seeing one of these chips. Hope to see more of your builds in the future. Subbed. ❤

[@talideon]

There pretty much is an inheritor of the 6502's legacy, and that's the ARM series of processors, whose main influences came from the 6502 and whose ISA still bears some striking resemblances to it.

ARM did not inherit from 6502. Maybe a better candidate would be the RCA1802.

It's still crazy to see people just straight up making a completely new computer just for the fun of it. Really interesting to see those designs use rarely seen CPUs. One can hope that you release files for the schematics so others can try and replicate it.

[@tonyfremont]

There has never been a better time to learn electronics and microcontrollers. My first computer was an Elf II in '78. A cheap scope was something under $500 in those days, llke paying probably $2000 today. This for 10-20MHz bandwidth and two channels if you were lucky. Nobody had a logic analyzer, if you could afford the $200+, you could own a logic probe that coukd tell you hi, low or pulse with no metrics. My Elf kit cost over $100. Now, for under $100, youncan get a comply Arduino dev kit with scores of sensors. For $800 now, you can get a four channel MSO that can be easily hacked to 350MHz bandwith, that samples at 8GS/S, contains two arbitrary waveform generators, unbelievable triggering options, massive memory depth and protocol decoders for virtually anything serial. It also has a logic analyzer built in, but you have to buy the "probe" thingy. Back in the early 2000s, I crammed up on Pics and AVR, but went the Pic road at first. Switched to AVR when rhe arduino appeared and i could wrote in C, without paying Keil a fortune. Now i like ARM Cortex with the Pi Pico really drawingy interest due to the IOP coprocessor, thats an interesting device. My intro to ARM was with cheap olimex SAMD and LPC Arm7/tdmi using OpenOCD and an Olimex JTAG. It was so flakey, but i was able to bring up the boards at max clock speed and drive all the on onboard peripherals, using gcc and a CRT.S file i created. I learned so much and the board and OCD jtag debugger cost under $100 total back then, now you can get a bluepill and stlink programmer for like $5 total.

Those are actually Apple II prototyping cards! I believe those are 50-pin while 8-bit ISA is 64-pin (don't quote me). The slot on the board is actually 64-way, but it has a bit of plastic jammed into one end to make sure I have the 50-pin card lined up correctly.

[@stefanweilhartner4415]

look at the page of ben eater. you have to connect the bus, create proper read write signals and a chip select for your bus slaves. the access timings are in the data sheet of your parts. you need a rom (for example a parallel programmable flash in a zif socket and a programmer), a simple sram, a serial communication chip to communicate with your computer (serial-usb cables for 5v are available from ftdi). you have to create a memory map for your peripherals and create some logic to make the chip select signals from the output pins of your cpu according your memory map. either using 74 logic chips or GAL from Atmel. most important, a scope (hantek 4 channel usb is affordable) and a logic analyzer with at least 16 inputs. have fun
