All:
I picked-up a copy of the 9/76 BYTE magazine on eBay the other day
and as I was thumbing through it last night, I noticed an ad for the Texas
Instruments Microprocessor Learning Kit.
The LK is composed of four modules in clear plastic cases. The first
one is the Microprogrammer Learning Module and contains an array of data and
address switches. The second one is the Controller. The third is the memory
and the fourth is I/O. They connect through what appears to be 40-conductor
ribbon cable. From the ad, the coursework appears to center around
microprogramming and developing your own CPU instruction set as a learning
tool.
Has anyone used one of these or has one in their collection?
