About the Empty CPU board w CPLD
Empty CPU board w CPLD is an open source PCB design by roberto314, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 100 × 100 mm, with 52 components from 16 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the XC9572VQ44, SN74LVC245ANSR and SN74LVC125AD. By type, the board carries 24 connectors, 10 resistors, 8 capacitors, 7 ICs and 3 jumpers.
It belongs with the retro computing designs in this gallery.
From the project
A modular 8-bit Computer able to recreate (nearly) every Retro computer of the late 70s to mid 80s.
A modular 8-bit Computer able to recreate (nearly) every microcomputer of the mid 70s to early 80s in Hardware without FPGAs (although an FPGA can be added). Can also be used as a teaching tool for:
VHDL or Verilog C RTOS (STM32F401 runs ChibiOS Link: https://www.chibios.org) Python bash and linux in general (Olimex board runs linux with fbterm and tmux) Harwaredesign Timing of CPUs maybe Assembler SPI and I2C Interfaces CPLDs and FPGAs
