I've searched for this but couldn't find it... Does anyone know if the DEC book "RTM: Register Transfer Modules" published in 1973 is available online? It's an 8.5 x 11 book with red cover and has 50 pages. I think it came with their RTM kit. Don

Anyone remember the R65F11? It's a Forth microcontroller: 6502 processor with a Forth kernel in ROM, from the mid '80s. I was going through some old stuff in storage (looking for something else) and found an R65F11 with the development ROM and some documentation for building a development board.

WOW!! I Have one of those ETI boards, and I based my final Electronics Engineering project on its big brother, the 65F12. >From memory, I spent days trying to understand why you had to issue a HEX 1800 MEMTOP command before using the disk. ETI Suggested that it was because the system had to know

Ok, so now the three old style 11/24 CPU boards seem to be working. Ish. The problem with the processor boards turned out to be the switches: On my original 11/24 board it would work only at 19200. This is because the switch pack is dirty and the contacts ain't working. Solution: Spray 95% iso
