Site is getting /.’ed at the moment… a hand-made CPU, complete with hardware address translation, memory mapped I/O, and DMA, out of 200 74-series TTL chips wired together with thousands of individually wrapped wires. By using a port of Adam Dunkels’ uIP TCP/IP stack to the Magic-1, it currently serves up live web pages at an amazing speed of 3 MHz. [via] Link.
This is the sort of thing I wanted to do ever since I read about how half-adders worked when I was a kid. :) Anyone want to throw together an article for Make:03 showing how to get a simple TTL CPU to grab data and perform some basic math? :D
