The MyCPU is a “Central Processing Unit” that is completely built with discrete logic gates. Over the years the project has grown, and now the MyCPU is the heart of a real Personal Computer. The computer has the following capabilities and features:
- All is build with 74HCxxx circuits. No higher integrated parts are use (except the EPROMs, RAMs and UARTs).
- The system runs with up to 8 MHz
- available hardware: 8 Bit CPU at 8 MHz (the “MyCPU”), 1.03 MB RAM / 128 KB ROM, Interrupt Controller, Multi-I/O with 2 serial ports, 1 printer port, LCD and PS/2-Keyboard interface, IDE-Controller for 4 harddisks, VGA graphic card.
- available software: DOS-like operating system, games, disk tools, programming tools, TCP/IP-stack, web server
- The computer can be programmed in basic, assembler and “C”. The basic-interpreter is integrated into the operating system, and the assembler is an executable that is loaded from disk and translates the assembly syntax into binary code on the MyCPU. The C-Compiler is a cross-compiler that runs on a Windows or Linux based host system.
- The realtime operating system “pico]OS” has been ported to the MyCPU. Applications for pico]OS can be written in “C”. This is a good starting point for education purpose.
- The project is totally open source.
