Projects:SBCs

From neurotica.com

I have built a number of computers. These days, when someone says "I built a computer!" they usually mean "I bought a PC motherboard and bolted it into a case". That's not what I'm talking about here. This type of "building" involves designing the circuitry component-by-component, and building it with chips, transistors, resistors, capacitors, wire, and solder. Read on to see what I mean.

Most of these computers were built for research purposes, to design and test new techniques or ideas. Others were just built for fun. Yes, it actually is fun!

• Z80 SBC #1, a Z80-based computer running a standalone Forth OS
• Z8 (not Z80) computer with BASIC interpreter in ROM
• 8051 computer with BASIC interpreter in ROM

(Z80 SBC 2 and M68K SBC 1 are in the works and will be documented here soon!)
