NASCOM 2 BASIC

NASCOM BOOT.PNG

Short Test Program

10 I=0
20 PRINTI:I=I+1:GOTO 20

Build Details

  • TASM assembler (see above)
  • S Record and Hex file manipulation
  • Adds srec_cat to combine files into one Intel Hex file
    • Combine int32k.hex and BAS32K.HEX into rom32.hex using srec-cat
    • Command line
      • srec_cat.exe int32k.hex -Intel BAS32K.HEX -Intel -fill 0xff 0x0144 0x014f -o rom32.hex -Intel
  • _ASSEMBLE.BAT - double-click in Windows to run the assembly if needed

NASCOM BASIC - Code Repository

Source files

  • intmini.asm - the interupt driven mini startup program needed to boot into BASIC
  • basic.asm - BASIC 4.7b - a conversion of Microsoft BASIC 4.7, as used on the Nascom computers (see below for details)

Output files

  • List files
    • INTMINI.LST
    • BASIC.LST
  • Hex files
    • INTMINI.HEX
    • BASIC.HEX
    • ROM32.HEX - the complete 8K ROM ready for burning to an EPROM
      • The unused contents are filled with FF values.
      • Within the ROM, the serial handler is first (starting at address 0000H), followed by the BASIC interpreter (starting at 0100H).
  • Hex file format

Acknowledgements

  • BASIC is Microsoft BASIC 4.7 for the NASCOM, heavily modified by Grant to remove references to different monitors, screen handlers and keyboard matrix reading
  • TASM assembler is a partial distribution of the package from Speech Technology Incorporated

Checkout

Rev 2 Checkout

  • Reset switch footprint is good
  • LED control worked with software update
    • Write 1 to address in range 0x0000-0x1FFF to turn LED on (command L1)
    • Write 0 to address in range 0x0000-0x1FFF to turn LED off (command L0)
  • Serial test software runs
  • MS BASIC doesn't work

Rev 2 Changes

  • Fixed resistor silkscreen values
  • Re-sequenced resistor reference designator
  • Made reset switch right angle
  • Add LED and resistor to PLD pin 15
  • Add CPUD0 to PLD pin 11
  • Added bulk capacitor

LB-Z80-01 FRONT-Rev-2 3D.png

Rev 1 Checkout

  • Didn't use silkscreen values, used
    • R1 = 4.7K
    • Other resistors are 10K
  • Z80 nop tester nop = 0x00
    • Refresh complicates this
  • Made C2 a bulk cap (100uF)
