Re: Reset switch - will this work?
The reason the 555 version is superior is that it takes time to reset and avoids the reset,reset,,,reset possibility that you get from just a switch!
with a proper mechanicaly de-bounced switch this is not a problem.

Re: C64/VIC20 keyboard adapter
The MT8808 is a matrix array that emulates the keyboard precisely ( it connects rows to columns in exactly the same way a c64 keyboard would ) and should work absolutely fine . Using this method all the target computer sees is a matrix keyboard!!

Re: Not quite... The end of the ROM based PLA for the 64
Got some 90b6's coming from Ray Carlsen.
This is mainly to check what it does right that others do wrong.

Re: Not quite... The end of the ROM based PLA for the 64
Exactly the point i am getting to. First to test roms against an original PLA and then to test against a relible replacement like the 90B6. Hopefully we will find a few that people can use and weed out those that cannot be used while showing the reasons why!
