ADTTM8 Logic IC DIY CPU Assembly Kit TTM8
The "TTM8 DIY CPU Assembly Kit Using Logic ICs" is a craft kit for learning about the internal structure of a computer, and allows you to create a working CPU using only logic ICs.
It is an 8-bit CPU and is a practical CPU that can execute 16 types of general-purpose instructions.
It features a pure circuit configuration combining 44 general-purpose ICs, and is equipped with over 100 LEDs that display internal signals, a hexadecimal keypad, and other features, making it easy to learn.
A program can consist of up to 64 instructions, and various operations can be performed depending on how the instructions are arranged.
This course is aimed at students and working adults who want to learn about the internal structure of a CPU, and allows them to learn the basics of how a CPU works using pure circuits without any black boxes.
In addition to the online assembly manual and instruction manual, a trial version of the book written by the author himself, "TTM8 Practical Guide: Creating Your Own CPU with a General-Purpose Logic IC Kit," is provided, featuring the table of contents and the first two pages of each chapter. This comprehensive textbook allows for effective learning.
In addition, a bundled edition of the book "TTM8 Practical Guide: Creating Your Own CPU with a General-Purpose Logic IC Kit" will also be released.
This kit is for those who are just starting to learn about CPUs or who want to try their hand at challenging electronics construction and assembly.
Product application examples
・Learn how a CPU works using pure circuits without black boxes
- Challenging electronics project (estimated 5-6 hours of soldering)
Product Features
- CPU featuring a pure circuit composed of 44 logic ICs
The CPU is made up of logic ICs with a clear internal structure, allowing you to learn pure circuits without any black boxes.
- Display: Equipped with over 100 LEDs to display internal signals and a hexadecimal keypad, it can be used as a standalone device for learning.
Over 100 LEDs are used to display internal signals to aid learning.
It also comes with a hexadecimal keypad ranging from 0 to F for entering data when writing programs or referencing RAM, making it possible to continue learning using just the kit.
- Equipped with a stack
It is equipped with a 32-byte stack, allowing user data storage and subroutine calls.
・You can expand your own I/O
It is designed to allow users to freely add expansion IO, and is also intended for experienced users and those who wish to learn more to create their own expansion boards and control the controlled objects with TTM8.
・In addition to online assembly instructions and instruction manuals, there is also a wide range of related texts, including digest versions of practical explanations.
Support and instructions for learning how CPUs work are available online.
