Re: My Z80 Computer build
Nice project work there Shane. Let me know if you need any TTL LS chips. I have 3000+ of them that I picked up from Silicon Valley back in the early '90s. I even indexed them all via my Z80 based Epson QX-10 PC. I think I still have the print out somewhere Looking fwd to seeing it at a meeting one d...

Re: Raspi TFT
Hi Dylan,
so how far through the setup guide did you get: http://www.dfrobot.com/image/data/DFR02 ... US.1.0.pdf What errors do you have?
I see the tutorial link isn't working at the moment. Hopefully that will be fixed soon.

Re: Perth Curtin Robofair - 2014

We will have four tables and four pin-up boards: IMG_6164_sml.jpg I believe we have four attendees? If so then by my maths, that ...

Hi Dylan,
We need some more info on what you have. Do you have a link to where you bought it from or what it is? Do you know if other people have successfully added it onto a RPi?

or
https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-2-8 ... tive-touch
otherwise we can chat about it on Sat. if your coming along. See the next email regarding the venue change.

For what product or supplier? I use the cheapest shipping I can get. dx.com is free, but takes up to 6 weeks to arrive! Adafruit will take 2-3 weeks. The AU one might take a week or two?

Re: Z80 Computer on Altera Cyclone III FPGA 3C10 & 3C16
Hi Shane,
back in the day, I wondered about the Z80 data pins and why they couldn't be presented in a nice sequence like the address pins. I read this interesting post this morning: http://www.righto.com/2014/09/why-z-80s ... mbled.html
