I built a programmable 8-bit computer from scratch on breadboards using only simple logic gates. I documented the whole project in a series of YouTube videos and on this web site. Watch this video for an introduction:

How to Build an 8-Bit Computer: Building an 8-bit TTL computer sounds like a daunting and complicated task, or at least it did to me when I started out on my journey to understand the architecture of a basic CPU.

In this instructable, I will be showing you how to make an 8-Bit computer using microchips, breadboards, and wires. This is not an original project, however I will be covering my trial and errors when it comes to troubleshooting and building the overall computer.

Step 1: Lets Get Started With Making Modules. A 8bit computer a whole is a complicated to understand and to make, so lets divide it into different modules. among all most common modules are registers, which are essentially building blocks of digital circuits.

May 18, 2023 · There are plenty of tutorials online through places like Youtube or Udemy that can help get you started, but once you start to write your own code and break away from the bounds of tutorials, that's when the difficulty will ramp up. Best of luck! Just pass …

Jan 1, 2021 · Complete with a 1024 byte memory, a capable ALU, four seven-segment LEDs and (in the second version of the computer) a 2×16 LCD disply, this 8-bit computer has it all.

May 1, 2012 · One Kyle Hovey has decided to build his own 8-bit CPU from scratch, out of breadboard, NVRAM chips (non-volatile RAM), surface-mount transistors, and lots and lots of wire.

Sep 15, 2018 · YouTuber Ben Eater makes incredible “simple” computers from scratch…on breadboards. His website has carefully laid out instructions of the build and links to each of the different modules. I built a programmable 8-bit computer from scratch on breadboards using only simple logic gates.

In this video, I’m going to teach you two methods for making authentic 8-bit chiptune music, like that produced by the NES, GameBoy, and Commodore 64 sound chip, entirely for free.
