Kyle Hovey has decided to build his own 8-bit CPU from scratch, out of breadboard, NVRAM chips, surface-mount transistors, and lots and lots of wire -- and he's blogged his experience, so you can ...
To the 8-Bit Guy, the Pi is just a Linux computer. Other retrocomputing projects of a similar scope to this dream computer also fail: The Mega65, a project to resurrect the Commodore 65, will be ...
In a video that has now amassed over 112,000 views, Kyle, known online as Shadowman39, debuted the Arithmetic and Logic Unit, or ALU, and showed how it processes and computes information in 8-bit ...
We've actually already seen one completely home-built 8-bit computer but, while Jake Eisenmann wasn't afraid to show off his creation, Kyle Hovey is actually inviting us along for the ride. The ...
A Harvard architecture and a three-stage pipeline provide single-cycle performance, but with 32-bit operations and registers. Bit handling was a deficiency in existing Arm architectures.
Computer scientist Peter Gutmann tells The Reg why it's 'bollocks' The US National Institute for Standards and Technology (NIST) has been pushing for the development of post-quantum cryptographic ...
In a nutshell: Atari's 8-bit computers first launched in 1979, selling for between $549 and $999 and taking up the space of a full desktop machine. Now, more than four decades later, a Polish ...
Upgrading from an 8-bit to a 32-bit microcontroller (MCU) typically requires substantial software changes, even when a high-level language like C is employed, because the peripheral ...
