reg in_range
always @(posedge clk)
begin
if(counter == start)
in_range <= 1;
else
if(counter == stop)
in_range <= 0;
end
If something works I have to compare the RTLViews
My Amstrad CPC is starting to work. The video seems OK now and the keyboard works if you type slowly. Keyboard losing keys is probably due to interrupts or clock speed, which I haven't looked at yet. I need to add audio and floppy disk - https://github.com/lawrie/ulx3s_amstrad_cpc
This seems to be the file format - http://www.cpctech.org.uk/docs/dsk.html
Or optionally this - http://www.cpctech.org.uk/docs/extdsk.html
@rob-ng15 @lawrie how are things on the PS/2 keyboard + Silice front? (I lost track these past few days due to other workloads)
Hi @lawrie @sylefeb I have a PS/2 keyboard that works with the ULX3s :) It is a KB2106C that I got from https://www.cclonline.com/product/76320/KB-2106C/Keyboards/CiT-KB-2106C-USB/PS2-Combo-Keyboard/KBD0426/
Gives keycodes from the Silice using the PS/2 that @lawrie wrote, and works with the Jupiter Ace emulator. Very happy!
@lawrie yes, floppy is the cool medium, only I see they complicate the format why so much science aiiieeee. For the tapes, how about to support single image loading, like c64/vic20 and similar. If we assume it's similar, then if we find what memory locations change after tape loading then we just patch ROM for this to happen and I suppose it's the minimal effort to get something. Of course only single part will load, multipart tapes won't work this way
I think they are in some xml file, I have scripts in ulx3s-misc and makefiles for most projects tp compile same example source with both yosys and diamond eg. https://github.com/emard/ulx3s-misc/tree/master/examples/dvi
hey @emard, any interest in verilator for some of the ulx3s cores?
I'm using verilator with sdl/imgui/opengl to do simulations with video output for a simple mister core I'm building, and wanted to do it for c64, but half that core is vhdl so it wouldn't work without some vhdl2vl, which made me think of ulx3s
@sajattack:matrix.org Great if you know verilator, I never used it (maybe lazy me). I have USB core and some keyboards don't work, they enumerate but keypress sends no USB report. There's a bug which I can't find. I would probably need real wire USB analyzer, but if you think verilator could help, that's cool to simulate. I think I have verilog-only version. Some is vhdl but its convertible to verilog with vhd2vl
this is my little video sim https://github.com/sajattack/Gigatron_MiSTer/blob/master/verilator/sim_main.cpp
The problem is with the keyboard might be the interrupts, which are not frequent enough. They are currently one per frame but should be about 6 per frame. The algorithm for generating and clearing the interrupt is strange and I have not attempted it. The Mist/Mister uses an algorithm that was derived by reverse engineering the Amstrad gate array chip, but is produces strange verilog that uses lots of clocks. I will probably try something simpler. The clock speed and audio also needs work on it. I have been doing other things for the last week or so.
latest nightly build trellis has problem with 12F but I have 85F too :)
