Hello.

I've drawn layers of 6702 based on die shot published on visual6502. As the 
chip was not delayered yet the diffusion and buried contact layers are 
sometimes only guesses as they are not visible when hidden below the metal 
layer. Anyways I succeded in simulation of the chip and the results were 
exactly what expected for repetitive inputs 00-01, 00-03 and 00-81 (hexa). I 
did not test the other sequences because I suppose that they are OK. Maybe 
if someone here has some more elaborate (not repeating) sequence for me to 
test I'll test it.

If no one else wants to do that I can draw the schematic of the chip and do 
some analysis. The chip itself looks quite simply, it consists of 1249 
transistors.
Below is the copy of my posting to visual6502 forum - if you try to run my 
simulator don't panic, it's quite slow, it runs for several minutes (some 
85s on my i7):

Hello.

I was thinking if this chip is easy and repetitive enough that diffusion and 
buried layers could be renostructed just by thinking and intuition. I 
couldn't resist and I drew it and simulated it.

simulator does not use it it is unverified).

Simulator: http://www.pastraiser.com/pictures/6702/Simulator.zip
Simulator is based on my 8085 simulator.
Simulator contains layers without test pictures (to get rid of its warnings) 
and source code and executable (compiled as 64-bit application in visual c++ 
2012). It could be run as:
6702_Simulator 6702 >Test_01.txt
The text file Test_01.txt is in the archive as well it contains simulation 
for periodic inputs 00 (even input) and 01 (odd input). The simulated chip 
outputs corresponds with values published here:

from user Rhialto May 11, 2012; 9:58am. I tried as well values 00-03 and 
00-81 (hexa) and the result was as described.

From quick view observation - as discussed in CBM hackers list - for each 
data bit (D0-D7) there is an 8-bit shift register which can be modified to 
any length shorter than this by simply modifying the metal layer (there are 
three metal options for each stage).
As I said - diffusion and buried layer are more or less guesses because as 
they are behind the metal they are rather invisible. Ion layer is completely 
my guess.
If someone wants to draw schematics or simulate it more - just go ahead.
