Welcome to transputer.internet
It is a image of my first transputer. Within the strict sense it is not likely true,
as a result of just one half of this processor belongs to me. In 1991 after I
was a scholar on the Vienna College of Expertise (TU Vienna) a pal and
I made a decision to construct a transputer system. At the moment we had been wanting cash
and transputers had been expensive. So we pooled bills, not just for this transputer,
but in addition for the dynamic RAM, the board manufacturing and all the opposite stuff.
We constructed our personal hyperlink adapter, created our first assembler, developed our
first applications and so forth. It was a good time.
Later I used a transputer as an embedded controller for the demo gadget of my
diploma thesis [SCSI-2 Target Macro for FPGAs]. Develop, obtain and check.
Very quick cycle occasions. At this time this sounds straightforward, however at the moment burning EPROM’s
had been generally used. And to have a “printf” debug output of your
embedded program was half the battle.
This matter fell asleep till 2004, after I tried to reanimate
the primary mission to fill in a wet weekend. It took 5 hours.
Forgotten base tackle, unknown jumper capabilities and a eliminated oscillator
(for my demo gadget) had been the primary pitfalls. Searching for software program I
discovered complete web sites about transputers and eBay helps me to increase
my doc and {hardware} pool. Since then I can not disengage from this
topic and it’s now my main indoor interest. Within the meantime, I personal extra
than a half transputer. A significant quantity is not straightforward to say,
so for now – it is my little secret.
Due to everybody who helped me to gather all these issues, generally
actual priceless goodies even cost-free and final however not least my household,
which helps me on this nice enterprise.
