Front Panel for 8-Bit Microprocessors v2

See here for Ver 1 - SMT version

Features

This is a through-hole version of Front Panel for 8_Bit Computers.

It has these features. They may not fit your generic design. Especially since this card has to have an I2C interface.

  • 32 Pushbutton Switches
  • 32 LEDs
  • I2C interface (Two Wire interface - plus power and ground)
    • Jumper selectable base address
    • Occupies I2C addresses either 0x20-0x23 or 0x24-0x27
    • Jumper Selectable I2C terminators
  • I2C daisy-chain connector
    • Interrupt line
      • Can be configured to interrupt on button presses
      • MCP23017 need to be set to Open-Drain output - card has pull-up to Vcc
  • 4 of MCP23017 16-bit I2C Port Expanders
    • These are fine pitch surface mount parts
  • 3.3V or 5V operation
  • Compatible form factor with RETRO-EP4CE15 and other cards
    • 95x95mm
    • 6-32 mounting holes

Connector

J2 - I2C Connector

  • Two row header on bottom of card
  • 5 pin in
  • 4 pin out (daisy-chain)
  1. GND
  2. VCC
  3. SDA
  4. SCL
  5. INT*

And

  1. GND

  • D0-D7 - Data bus
  • A0-A15 - Address bus
  • Controls

Top row controls

Board has typical control silkscreen markings. It is all through hole so that it is much easier to assemble.

FrontPanel-01-Front-3D-controls.png

  • RUN - Run/Halt pushbutton, RUN LED on for CPU running
  • RESET - Reset the CPU
  • STEP - Single Step the CPU
  • Undefined
  • CLEAR - Clear address bus (if SETADR is ON) or data bus lines (if SETDAT is ON)
  • INCADR - Increment the address
    • If SETDAT is on write data
  • SETDAT - Set the data value
  • SETADR - Set the address
