I would like to announce new simple device for Atari XE series which can be used as base for own fun projects. Idea was similar to Arduino and only our imagination has a limit.
Device was designed as two different hardware:
1. DIAGari - full decoded address for $DXXX area, /RD /WR signals, two 30+14 pins headers for testing and one CART/ECI slot
2. DIAGariXEV003(AtarINO) - full decoded address for $DXXX area, /RD /WR signals, two 30+14 pins headers for testing and one CART/ECI slot. Additional socket for CH32V003 minidev Baord.
Project was made as Free Hardware under Creative Commons BY-NC-SA 4.0.
This is another project created as part of the activities of PTODT (Polskie Towarzystwo Ochrony Dziedzictwa Technicznego, which means the Polish Society for the Protection of Technical Heritage), founded for the protection of technical heritage, especially in the field of informatics and computers.
Notice:
This device is still under development. Please read whole information carefully. If you plan to do device by your own hand, please use newest revision as possible. Now it's 1.0.1 which is free of some minor issues on PCB.
Change log:
Features:
- possibility to connect any know equipment to Atari CPU bus (5V tolerant),
- using address decoder for own projects without soldering inside Atari,
- use Intel based ICs where /RD /WR signals are needed,
- compatible with any cartridge and other interface using CART/ECI,
- possibility to work with CH32V003 - universal microcontroller (DIAGariXEV003).
