Software
- ROM.HEX - ROM file
- Nascom 2 Computer BASIC Microsoft BASIC 4.7 modified to remove all hardware-specific code
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
- INTMINI.HEX
- BASIC.HEX
- ROM.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).
Assembler files (for Windows/DOS)
- _ASSEMBLE.BAT - double-click in Windows to run the assembly if needed
- TASM.EXE
- TASM80.TAB
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
Performance
- TeraTerm settings
- Test software
10 FOR I =1 TO 10000 20 PRINT I 30 NEXT I
- Time ~ 27 secs
- CPU is 4x the clock speed of the SIMPLE-6502 and SIMPLE-6809 cards
