Hi everyone! Have you heard of the brand new 8-bit computer built from (mostly) off-the-shelf parts called Commander X16 made by a team of people under The 8-Bit Guy (David Murray)? If so what are ...

Pity the poor TTL computer aficionado. It’s an obsession, really — using discrete logic chips to scratch-build a computer that would probably compare unfavorably to an 80s era 8-bit machine in terms ...

Not content with your new, 1.4-billion-transistor Ivy Bridge processor? Maybe it runs too hot, or lacks the polygon-pushing powers that you require? Well, I've got just the thing for you: How about ...

Here’s the most amazing 8-bit DIY computer implemented using a bunch of simple logic chips — along with a cornucopia of flashing LEDs — mounted on a cluster of breadboards. I stand in awe. As I’ve ...

Did you ever start a project that you felt gained a life of its own? This project by [Paulo Constantino] is an entire CPU named dreamcatcher on breadboards, and is a beautiful jungle of digital. On ...

Some of the most interesting projects in computing are the "Just for fun," builds that individuals dream up. A year and a half ago, we met the Megaprocessor, a room-scale CPU implementation with each ...

Hullo all, I have been dreaming for a while about building a simple computer based on an 8 bit proccessor. I know that an 8 bit proccessor is not much, but this is a hobby to help me greator ...

Shadowman39, a K'nex enthusiast who posts to YouTube and Instructables has built a fully mechanical 8-bit computer using K'nex parts. The computer uses a simple architecture and will load programs ...

LAPIS Semiconductor, a ROHM group company, offers an 8 bit low power micron controller with voice output function. Equipped with a 8-bit CPU nX-U8/100, the ML610Q380/383/384/385 is a high-performance ...
