New! ZX Breakout allows CPLD development and easy access to ZX bus signals on a pin header.

See the news blog for more.

Project Info

  • ZX Breakout - Provides ZX bus signals on a header, and a CPLD for logic functions. Also allows 3.3v devices to be used with the Spectrum.
  • SpectraDVI - A digital video ULA+ add-on for the Spectrum?
  • Spectranet - The Spectrum ethernet card - make your Spectrum talk to the world.
  • Diagnostics - A simple diagnostics card - assists in fixing broken machines.

Tools

The software tools used for all of these projects are:

Gerber files and PostScript files will also be available, so if you don't want to edit the PCB layouts or schematics, you can produce the phototools/toner transfer sheets without needing them. You will need at least the Impact part of ISE to program a CPLD. Programming hardware can be as simple as a parallel cable since Xilinx CPLDs are programmed via JTAG rather than some byzantine high voltage programming method.
