| 13:40.14 | prpplague | g1powermac_apl trust me, no logic chip is gonna fix the kind of problems you have |
| 13:40.30 | g1powermac_apl | this custom genesis cartridge needs two 8bit ram chips to make the 16bit wide bus |
| 13:40.31 | g1powermac_apl | hahah |
| 13:41.19 | g1powermac_apl | now, I want to program these chips with a ds89c450, but because of its limited amount of pins, I can only use 8 data pins at a time |
| 13:41.36 | g1powermac_apl | which is fine, since I should be able to program each chip individually |
| 13:41.58 | g1powermac_apl | now this is where things get tricky |
| 13:42.18 | g1powermac_apl | coming off the card edge connector is the main Chip Enable line |

| 13:48.19 | g1powermac_apl | yup |
| 13:49.15 | g1powermac_apl | thinks he should multiplex a chunk of the address lines too |
| 13:49.16 | prpplague | probably the easiest then is to use 245's |
| 13:49.31 | prpplague | between the ds89 and the nvram |
| 13:49.50 | g1powermac_apl | I'm cutting really close with 18 address lines and multiplexed 8 data lines |
| 13:50.54 | prpplague | g1powermac_apl you'll need probably 2 gpio lines to control which bank is being accessed |
| 13:51.33 | g1powermac_apl | yea, ok, definitely will need to multiplex a chunk of the address lines too |
| 13:52.14 | g1powermac_apl | alrighty, thanks for the help |
| 13:53.13 | prpplague | g1powermac_apl a couple 74ls245 or 74ac245 should do the trick |
| 13:53.26 | prpplague | has to mow the yard today |
| 13:53.30 | prpplague | and get my eyes checked |
| 13:53.51 | g1powermac_apl | hmm, was planning on using some 373s for the multiplexing |
| 13:56.25 | prpplague | g1powermac_apl that would only do if you are planning to latch the data on seperate cyles before writing |
| 13:56.47 | g1powermac_apl | thats what I was planning |
| 13:58.24 | prpplague | ahh, thats alot more complicated that just programming each one seperately |
| 13:58.47 | g1powermac_apl | hmm |
| 13:59.08 | g1powermac_apl | is prolly not completely understanding what you had in mind |
| 13:59.46 | prpplague | the data bits from the ds89 are connected to two 245's |
| 13:59.56 | prpplague | one for the upper bank and one for the lower |
| 14:00.21 | prpplague | the ds89 turns on the 245 for the lower bank, programs it, and turns off the 245 |
| 14:00.34 | prpplague | the ds89 turns on the 245 for the upper bank, programs it, and turns off the 245 |
| 14:00.54 | prpplague | basically just like you are programming a single 8 bit device, just doing it twice |
| 14:00.55 | g1powermac_apl | ahh, ok |
| 14:01.11 | g1powermac_apl | but that doesn't solve the CE part :-) |
| 14:01.24 | prpplague | ce part? |
| 14:02.14 | g1powermac_apl | I need to have separate control over each CE pin on the ram chips, but the card edge connector coming off the nomad needs to control both CE pins like they were one |

| 14:56.21 | T0mW | At the time, there was little information (like openOCD) about interfacing a wiggler to gdb. So, I went with the bdi2000. |

| 15:10.04 | g1powermac_apl | sigh, I need more I/O on the ds89c450 |
| 15:30.28 | T0mW | ha |
| 15:30.36 | T0mW | that partnumber seems familiar |
| 15:32.23 | g1powermac_apl | its a super nice 8051 from dallas |
| 15:32.24 | T0mW | no, that is a goofy dallas part |
| 15:33.01 | T0mW | I did a lot of 8051 work with a Philip 80c450, that had 6 eight-bit I/O ports. |
| 15:33.15 | T0mW | PLCC-68 package |
| 15:33.42 | g1powermac_apl | why is it goofy? |
| 15:33.58 | g1powermac_apl | well, the ds89c450 is a 40 pin dip |
| 15:34.04 | T0mW | IIRC, after you did your basic external RAM + ROM hookup, you had something like 30..34 pins left for I/O. |
| 15:34.30 | T0mW | the 80c450 went EOL about 10 years ago though. |
| 15:34.52 | T0mW | g1powermac_apl: at the time, it was goofy as it had two DPTRs and no compiler supported that. |
| 15:34.59 | g1powermac_apl | ahh |
| 15:35.11 | g1powermac_apl | sdcc supports it fairly nicely now :-) |
| 15:35.43 | T0mW | mov a, @r1 works nicely too |
| 15:35.56 | T0mW | IF |
| 15:36.09 | T0mW | you set the upper byte value into P2 |
| 15:36.11 | T0mW | AND |
| 15:36.27 | T0mW | the processor is a complete implementation of an 8051 and not a clone. |
| 15:36.47 | T0mW | OKI came out with a 8051 clone and did not implement all the details |
| 15:38.01 | T0mW | P2 becomes the upper half of the 16bit address during the "mov a, @Rx" opcode. |
| 15:38.32 | T0mW | g1powermac_apl: so, why are you using an 8051? |
| 15:39.03 | g1powermac_apl | because I know it the best |
| 15:39.35 | RobotGuy | Who makes the ds89c450? |
| 15:39.37 | T0mW | so do I, but I won't do a new design with it now that I learned ARM |
| 15:39.54 | g1powermac_apl | ahh, I don't need an ARM for this |
| 15:40.04 | g1powermac_apl | really way overkill |
| 15:40.07 | RobotGuy | ARM is cheap now. :D |
| 15:40.09 | T0mW | why? |
| 15:40.45 | g1powermac_apl | I just need the ds89c450 to talk over the serial port (which is actually hooked upto a bluetooth module) to program two nvsram chips |
| 15:40.49 | g1powermac_apl | thats it |
| 15:41.12 | T0mW | g1powermac_apl: LPC2138 is around $8, has 512K Flash + 32K of SRAM, no external memory. Just add a clock + reset circuit, it runs from 14..60MHz. |
| 15:41.28 | RobotGuy | likes the LPC2148 boards he has. |
| 15:41.48 | g1powermac_apl | T0mW, can I get it free? |
| 15:41.54 | g1powermac_apl | has ds89c450s already here |
| 15:42.01 | T0mW | RobotGuy: yeah, last design was with LPC2214, I put a 512K external RAM on the sucker. heheh |
| 15:42.16 | RobotGuy | Yay for more RAM and/or Flash! |
| 15:42.46 | T0mW | RobotGuy: added an MMC card, then put a bootstrap in flash that loads the main program from MMC into external RAM and off you go. |

| 15:43.59 | RobotGuy | T0mW: Nice. :) |
| 15:44.00 | T0mW | g1powermac_apl: the only wiring I do anymore is cut+jumper, I gave up my perf board many years ago. So, no, it is not free. |
| 15:44.29 | T0mW | g1powermac_apl: see this http://www.openhardware.net/Misc_Stuff/ToasterSMD/ |
| 15:44.38 | T0mW | that is how I do boards today |
| 15:44.56 | g1powermac_apl | still thinks an arm is overkill to program two nvsram chips |
| 15:45.20 | g1powermac_apl | heck, the arm is alot more powerful than the m68k in the sega nomad |
| 15:45.20 | T0mW | $100 gets me three very nice boards made, then I "glue" the parts on the board using a toaster oven. |
| 15:45.32 | RobotGuy | g1powermac_apl: Yes, it probably is, but it's also inexpensive and reusable. :) |
| 15:45.37 | T0mW | g1powermac_apl: yes, the 68K was a wimp. |
| 15:46.11 | magnetron | T0mW: that's not a very nice thing to say to a powermac :D |
| 15:46.14 | T0mW | the only thing the 68K had going for it was a linear address space (no banking as in x86) |
| 15:46.43 | g1powermac_apl | magnetron, powermacs ran ppcs anyway ;-) |
| 15:46.46 | T0mW | magnetron: ok, so the instruction cycles were shorter than the x86 |
| 15:46.51 | T0mW | heh |
| 15:46.58 | g1powermac_apl | RobotGuy, still not as inexpensive as free ;-) |
| 15:47.44 | T0mW | I used to build my own printed circuit boards for "free". Had a laser printer, that blue emulsion sheets, a dremel, ... |
| 15:47.44 | RobotGuy | g1powermac_apl: True, of course. :) |
| 15:48.00 | T0mW | what a PITA, hours and hours of work just to save money. |
| 15:48.16 | g1powermac_apl | T0mW, meh, I get mine made for me |
| 15:48.21 | T0mW | plus the clothing I stained with ferric chloride |
| 15:48.25 | g1powermac_apl | T0mW, I meant free as in the chips :-) |
| 15:49.22 | T0mW | g1powermac_apl: jtag is a pretty powerful persuasion to use an ARM. Debugging an 8051 is only possible using either an LED or expensive ISE |
| 15:49.58 | g1powermac_apl | or the minila I have |
| 15:50.00 | RobotGuy | T0mW: Would that also be true of the CC2431 from TI> |
| 15:50.12 | g1powermac_apl | RobotGuy, no, it has a built in debug module |
| 15:50.25 | g1powermac_apl | RobotGuy, which seems to be very similar to jtag |
| 15:50.32 | T0mW | RobotGuy: I don't know what TI is offering, they seem to be solely into DSP |
