I'm trying to track down a copy of the NEC V20
Hardware Manual. I've
managed to find a PDF version of the Software (programming) Manual, but the
Hardware Manual (which, typically, is filled with the info I need to get
this thing running) is a pain in the neck to find, especially now the V20 is
classified as obsolete by NEC.
Wasn't the V20 100% Bus (and thus hardware) compatible
to the 8088 ? AFAIK, the difference was just internal
and softwarewise. The 86 core did in any way reassemble
the 86 core of a 186 (same instruction timeing) plus the
added 8080 mode.
