VULCAN-74 RETRO GAME COMPUTER

How I built The MOAB (Mother Of All Breadboards) in order to make this project a reality.

Using CAT-5 wire for breadboard connections. How to cut, strip and straighten the wire.

Using 7400 Logic Chips in DIP format (Dual Inline Package) and how to save board space.

A Basic Schematic and plan for getting the 6502 up and running without using any ROMs.

RAM, lots of RAM! Here is how I create breadboard friendly sockets for SOJ packaged SRAMs.

Completing 25 SRAMs for the project (12.5 MB), all hand wired to individual DIP sockets.

Connecting the 6502 Microprocessor and its clock as well as the 64K Program Memory.

The 6502 Boots! With some of the IO decode circuit completed a 32 LED chaser is created.

Input testing with a C64 compatible 9 pin joystick. Vulcan can now read and write hardware.
