Looking at your new circuit, using A14 instead of _BASIC on IC1B should work, it's LOW when BASIC is active and HIGH when KERNAL or CHAR is active. Behaves the same as the old _BASIC signal. The generation for _CS and _OE for the EPROM is also OK. Now the only signal left over to take of is A14 of the EPROM. This one must only go LOW when _KERNAL is LOW and A14 is HIGH. Means you need 2 Inverters. One for _KERNAL and one for the output of the AND gate. Sounds like you need at least 2 Transistors + 4 resistors or you need to add a 74LS04 or you need to rearrange the EPROM contents. Currently, I see no other way to do it. Anyway I try, I need extra logic that I can't build by what the 74LS00 and 74LS08/11 supply. Gerrit Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing listReceived on 2012-11-24 12:00:09
